Once upon a time there was a kind and fair king in the beautiful reign of Lefolynia. King Adamastur had three daughters, princess Lavignia, the youngest and smartest, princess Kudmillya, the middle one, a spoiled brat but also the bravest. Finally princess Dawn, the eldest, the most beautiful and kindest girl of all the kingdom. One faithful day, Short Fuse, the king of evil dwarves, decided to kidnap the older princess just to make her work in the coal mines so he could break her kindness and beauty. The king Adamastur, as his daughter was kidnapped got sick and no one IN the realm knew what to do about it. The two sisters went on a quest to find a hero. A hero that might save their father and sister, a hero that might defeat the evil dwarf king, a hero that might save the realm. That hero... won't be you 'cause this game is not about that.

Now really...

You are MazeMan, the infamous maze raider who found a structure of never-ending procedurally generated mazes protected by the Minotaur and its minions.

How to play

The game has two modes:

In maze raid mode, to finish a level, you must find the key and go to the exit.
In this mode, MazeMan can jump.
If any of the enemies manage to get you, you will lose a live.
You will be acquainted with the minotaur.
After the introduction levels, the minotaur, will spawn as soon as you get the key.
The minotaur will be idling through the maze until you enter its line of sight (same row or column it is looking at).
When it sees you, it'll enter rage mode, that means it will charge forward until it either hits you or a wall.
When hit by the minotaur, the walls in the middle of the maze will crumble.
The minions can be killed by the minotaur when it is in rage mode - that will grant you an extra life.
For bonus points, just jump over the minotaur when it gets real close in rage mode.

In classic mode, to finish a level, you must eat all the dots and the pills.
If any of the minions touch you while in normal form, you'll lose a life.
After eating a pill, the minions become ghosts, and, the ghosts can be eaten.
For each ghost eaten inn a row there will be a score multiplier. First one x1, second x2, etc.
If you manage to eat all the ghosts in the level in a row, a letter will spawn. For each time you manage to form a certain word, you'll earn an extra life.
The game ends when you lose all your lives. (You can continue on the level you have lost while resetting the number of lives, the letters caught and the score.

This game is a cool little spin on pac-man! It has all the basic elements that you did a good job expanding upon. Things like making him jump and the minotaur are good ways to bring something new to a classic. I would say to expand even more on these, by any other creative you can think of!

Keep it up!
