Maziak is a simple maze retro game (and a clone of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum/MSX game Maziak/Maziacs/Mazoggs), in which you have to find a maze's exit. But there are also enemies in the maze that can be beaten by a sword. There are also prisoners, that temporarily show the way to the exit upon freeing them.

Version 1.0 of the game relies heavily on the function DrawGlobe.

Maziak history

YYYY-MM-DD: [description]
1987-xx-xx: Maziak was one of my favorite MSX games
2007-10-20: I wanted to developed a Windows clone of Maziak, because the original was nowhere to be found, so I programmed Maziak v. 1.0.
2010-02-05: Discovered that the original game name was 'Maziacs' or 'Mazogs'. And that my clone was not that identical at all
2010-02-16: Maziak v. 1.1: changed graphics to resemble original more
2010-02-17: Maziak v. 1.2: added animated sprites
2010-02-18: Maziak v. 1.3: added animated fights
2010-02-25: Maziak v. 1.4: small improvements
2010-07-31: Maziak v. 2.0: Maziak is now cross-platform!
