20th Adventure: Maze

Post by yot yot5 » Sat Oct 27, 2012 11:59 am

This adventure requires MNIK's ambiance pack, thanks to Wonderman109 for pointing this out!

HALL OF FAME: All players who have ever completed the Maze!!!
1: Pawelec
2: Wonderman109
3: Welcome0
4: PhoenixBlaze


Before we begin this amazing voyage across the Fourth Wall (using door 23, in case you were wondering), there are a few things I need to get across:

First of all, this adventure is WEIRD. There is little or no logic between rooms and clues, and even I don't exactly know what I've created. It's also extremely difficult to solve. Please don't post comments like "I hate this adventure, there's no sense in it!" or "This is too hard and I can't solve it! I hate it!", because I won't give you any sympathy. I'm proud this adventure turned out so different. Much of the creating credit goes to Christopher Manson, who wrote the book by the same name which this adventure is based off.

Secondly, there is a little problem about the texture in the zipped folder. If you want to experience Maze to the full, please follow these steps:

1: Go the your local disk/WA editor/data/leveltextures folder.
2: Rename the "waterfall" texture into "backup waterfall".
3: Download the adventure into the downloads inbox and the "waterfall" texture into the data/leveltextures folder.
4: Play the adventure!
5: When you think you've played enough, rename the "waterfall" texture into "waterfall (maze)" and rename the "backup waterfall" into "waterfall".
6: When you want to play maze again, swap the names on the textures around again.


Last but not least, Happy Halloween!!!!!

Yay, it's here. You forgot to mention that you need MNIK's Ambiance Pack, but otherwise so good so far.

Big congratulations to Pawelec, who is the first player to ever reach room 45 and escape the Maze! He has achieved 1st place on the Hall of Fame (see first post on this topic).

I'll beat this maze with my luck, not my brain!, because I can't understand any word. :lol:
I'm not kidding, though. XD

Dig's Notes:

1st try: I...I went to.. hell?

2nd try: I...I went to hell.. again?

3rd try: Stepped on a flaming barrel.

4th try: A turtle shut me in a door. :oops:

5th try: Went to hell again.

6th try: Waddya you think? Went to hell again.

This is a very nicely laid out adventure, very mysterious, a very good brain teaser and, something that will make anyone who plays, rage.
Although not being able to complete it, this was fun. :)
Good job. *Claps*

That's why you should save. Of course, I seem to have saved in a constant loop.

The design of room 24 is one of the most scary-themed scenes I've ever seen in WA. I love the Stinkers in the dark.

Removed due to spoilers, and Yotyot being a big meanie.
(Just kidding, I didn't realise this was ruining the idea of the adventure)

No problem. Just try to only give out major spoilers if the adventure has been released for a while, or if you ask permission of the maker. Thanks. :)

It doesn't scare me . At first I assumed it was the death sentence for if you took more than 16 steps :P .

The Maze book has eyes, instead of whole stinkers, in the room with you. As it's impossible to make glowing eyes in Wonderland look scary, I thought the shadowy stinkers would look better. I don't know what they're supposed to represent, I just tried to make it as spooky as possible (it IS Halloween!).

DIG THE JOURNALISTS QUESTION BOARD!

Do the magic gloves in the library actually have any point?


Is there more to this story than meets the eye?
There's like, a storyline to it thats completely invisible.


Room 24 is certainly mysterious!
I made a sort of meaning to it in my room notes...
Room 24 is the scary room, you will be assured death, and then burned along with all the other stinkers who have painfully fallen in the maze.

Are the buttons in room 1 indicating something?


How LONG did it TAKE you to MAKE this? (I had something INCREDIBLY similar to this, mysterious things and clues and whatnot, but I kinda had to stop since people would flame me for 'copying', can I go on with making this?)

If you take my evil scritter texture that I use for Scrat, and cut out the body, and apply it to a Scritter Wysp, you have two glowing red eyes. :wink:

I got a vague idea of what it's about. But the shadow guy would look much eviler as eyes.

Yep.

If you figured out the riddle in Room 1, which is actually one of the easiest riddles, you'll know exactly what those buttons are for.

It took me about 10, maybe 20 hours. I tried to make every room as unique as possible, but it got really difficult towards the end.

As for your "incredibly similar" adventure, I think you can still make it. After all, this entire Maze was 50% stolen from Christopher Manson's book, so I don't exactly have "rights" to the idea.

P.S. Welcome00 has solved the Maze! 3rd place to Welcome00, well done!

Hmm.. I had a brainwave just now, we could make a...
Maze: Extended version
75 rooms? :)
We could keep the old rooms, just add more ones.
Well, we COULD...

I went that way immediately, and got stuck fairly shortly in a loop. I think it means not to go that way.

Well, it mentions fire, it mentions mushrooms, it mentions steel, the only one left is the theatre one...
I reckon the EASIEST riddle was the one in room 30, the one with a guys last words.

Well look closely , it says a STEEL FRYING pan , especially if it's a STEEL FRYING pan full of tasty MUSHROOMS. The only one it doesn't mention is moss.
