A downloadable game

Our game Maze Run is a third-person escape game filled with a combination of tension and joy. Players take on the role of a piece of sushi, in addition, players are aimed to escape from a mouth-opening frightening monster, avoiding being eaten. We aim to create a cheerful but slightly suspenseful atmosphere to our audience. The player's goal is to escape through this linear maze filled with obstacles, collecting coins along the way and finding props that help them avoid the enemy, allowing them to keep moving forward.

Moreover, players also need to pay attention to the changes in the walls of the maze, as the wall positions are randamed and arranged differently in each game. There are two types of walls in the maze: one type is stationary, while the other moves up and down, blocking the player's path. In addition, there are stationary small crabs in the maze that will trigger when players get close. If a small crab touches the player, the player's speed will be reduced for two seconds, adding an extra layer of challenge and fun to the game.

Beyond that, our prototype includes a revive mechanic. When a player is caught by the monster for the first time, if they collect more than 10 fish coins, they can simply click 'Revive' in the window to respawn at the position where they were caught, gaining a short period of invincibility for 2 seconds. In each individual game, the revive can only be used once, so players should be cautious and take every single step carefully and thoughtfully!

Our game also includes a saving system, allowing players to pause and save their actual progress and coin count at any time. We offer a shop where players can purchase their preferred characters, each with unique special abilities, and swap to a new character before starting a new game. Maze Run is a short prototype game developed by our team as a university graduation project, and we’ve decided to release it. We hope players will enjoy the thrilling experience of Maze Run!
