Overview

CuteMaze is a simple, top-down game in which mazes are randomly generated using one of a choice of several different algorithms. You move the character through the maze while hunting for targets (cheese, by default)—the game is won once all of these targets have been picked up.

Features

Showing the amount of time and steps it has taken to play the maze (optional)
"Bread crumb" trail to show you where you've already been (optional)
Flag system which allows you to mark and later un-mark any square on the board
SVG themes (two themes come with the game)

Development

CuteMaze is available from a public git repository. If you would like to access the current development source of the project, run the following command:

git clone git://github.com/gottcode/cutemaze.git

This will create a directory called cutemaze which contains the latest version of the project. If you wish to download the changes since you ran the above command, run the following command inside of the cutemaze directory:

git pull origin master

Theming

CuteMaze uses a folder of SVG files to define a theme. The folder name is used as the name of the theme in the game. The locations for the theme folders are platform specific:

Linux: Themes are located in $XDG_DATA_DIRS/games/cutemaze. By default, that means (in order of preference) the locations are:

$HOME/.local/share/games/cutemaze/
/usr/local/share/games/cutemaze/
/usr/share/games/cutemaze/

Windows: Themes are located in either "Application Data\GottCode\CuteMaze" or a folder called "Themes" in the same folder as the executable.

Mac OS X: Themes are located in "Library/Application Support/GottCode/CuteMaze", either in your home folder or the root folder.

You can override themes by making a folder under a higher preference folder with the same name. If you only wish to replace one file, all you need to do is create a matching folder and file.

Listed below is the name of each theme file with an example image.
