The feel of the environment was brilliant, really good music too. Can't say the gameplay itself was all that compelling, it seemed heavily trail and error to me.

Even though I knew it was useless, a found myself inching forward in anticipation hoping i wouldn't trigger a trap. Good job with the sound and the music! Your title screen looks really cool too.
Still you are BOSS in my book, because you had guts to venture into The Maze.
I'm continuing development on this game, first this is essentials - menu and resolution setup . After that I and my girlfriend have plans for expanding this game with more content in as soon as possible. This is our very fist game we actually made so we are doing as much as possible to gain knowledge and skills for future projects.

I enjoyed this game overall, though I did feel like the traps frustrated me over time. I was able to just restart and give it another go, though, so it wasn't such a big hamper. Good concept and neat execution.
Unfortunately the game quickly devolves into a game of "remember where the last trap killed you". While there are some very minute visual ques a trap is there, unless you're inching along, a strategy untenable due to the time limits, you will run into them every time. While some may have the patience for it, I do not.
