What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We started this project during a live streamed game jam with many valued feedback from our viewers on twitch. Thus it's only logic that we are continuing development of Maze Crusher in strong contact to our community and players.

Maze Crusher has is mostly feature-ready right now. We are currently working on the last big feature: The level editor.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We originally planned to go out of early access in 2020 but circumstances (we all know what is meant) caused a required focus change and a huge delay.

We are now working on the last big missing feature: The level editor and expect this to come out within the next few months (scheduled Q1/2023).”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Compared to the current state: We are going to add a level editor and steam workshop.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game is mostly ready. you can already play a few included mazes.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We do currently not have specific plans to raise the price in foreseeable future.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We are running a discord server where you can give feedback and talk about any issues.
Also we are giving out closed beta access to our best community members.”

About This Game

IMPORTANT NOTICE
This project is frozen until further notice. We stopped development in 2023 for various personal reasons (referr to the announcements) and it is not clear if or when this project will be continued. You are buying a game in an unfinished state with only a minor amount of levels.
We adjusted the price down so it represents the current state of the game. If you buy, remember that you are buying the game "as it is".


Maze Crusher is a game originating from Ludum Dare 42 Game Jam.

This game is in early access as it's still missing much content and many features. We want to make Maze Crusher a great game together with our community. This is why we are involving YOU in such an early state. Read the EA notes for more information.

You are Kurisou, the little dragon - trapped in a huge and creepy maze. You need to find a way out of the maze as fast as you can. You have a limited amount of time to get out. The quicker you are, the more score you get.

Sounds Simple So Far Huh?

You will need to deactivate totems in different parts of the maze to open the exit-portal and you will encounter enemies all over the maze. You have three lifes per maze. If an enemy gets too near (touches Kurisou) you will lose a life.
Warning! Exploding fireballs cause a shock wave which will make walls collapse. And no, you can't get over collapsed walls. The tricky part is: Wall fragments can make it difficult to pass by - so watch out! Do not run out of space.

Beneath the single player "puzzle mode", there are some multi player party modes available:
  • Treasure Fight (2-4 players)
    Collect treasures and fight your friends to become the richest dragon in the maze
  • Capture the flag (2 or 4 players - coming during EA)
    In this mode you need to find a way to your opponent's spawn point, grab his flag and bring it back to your spawn. But beware! You might lose the flag if you don't watch out.
Note: Multi player is only available with controllers! You can not mix keyboard and controllers.

Maze Crusher is a small arcade-like game, aiming to be fun for everyone. It's meant as a casual game and does not contain any storyline or campaign mode. This game is about creating and solving mazes (Level editor coming soon) and having fun together (party mode).

For optimal gaming experience use a controller. Officially supported and tested: Xbox One Controllers, PS4 Controllers, Nintendo Switch JoyCons (Names are trademarks of their respective owners). Many more are working out of the box though.
