Sneakily place and remove walls in a maze to keep the wandering souls hopelessly lost. Their fear feeds the maze. The maze isn't happy with simply trapping souls. You need to keep openings available to give the victims hope.

Controls: Mouse only

Post-jam notes:
- I think this came out pretty funny. The further you get, the more out of control everything becomes.
- I think it could be a neat idea, but my execution here could have been a lot better.
- I would have liked to have saved some time with the AI by just keeping it simple. It didn't end up working as well I'd have liked.
- Biggest missed feature I think would be something to make it clearer where you can and can't place walls. It's pretty difficult going in blind if you're having trouble working why you can't click in many places.
- I missed out on audio, but given my busy life-schedule, I don't think I'd have time anyway. It kind of works without audio, but I would have liked more juice and polish.
- The 3rd upgrade is broken, ignore it.
