I liked the base concept and it was cleanly executed. Another goal for the game could be to include a timer, so you try to end with the most money, thus having to balance difficulty of the mazes with the reward offered.
My next planned upgrade was an auto-solver -- either breadth-first or depth-first, depending on which tended to perform worse. Then the other, then A*.
I love the idea! Maze games are things I like, and one of the first thing I did when I learned programming on my calculator was a maze game. Your game reminds me of the good time I had programming it and playing with classmates!
Very unique idea. I love incremental games, and this was a fun idea. I would love to see a post LD version with graphics and more things to do. Good job!
An super interesting idea, and the game is fun to play. The mazes could have been generate more interesting, and even the big mazes is often way to easy to solve. Overall a good LD game. Well done.
