Find the portal to escape the maze. And do it second time to maybe help other people get out faster.

Controls: mouse, touch or arrow keys to navigate, space/double click to leave a chalk mark on the ground, touch+hold+move on touch devices

It's actually a MMORPG: the server is written from scratch in C++, the client is javascript web app, also available as an Electron app (can be downloaded and played in windows)

Tools used: Linux, Gvim, Blender, Google.

Wednesday update:
- Fixed jagged movement
- If you see no one playing, you can log in from two different browser windows and find the other you in the room

Thursday update:
- Increased movement 2.5 times by popular demand
- Added HUD showing level number and how many players are currently online
- Added ability to mark the ground with chalk. Other players will see marks you make while they see you!
- Fixed the server crash bug when someone finishes all the maps
- Added 2 extra-large maps 40x40 cells each, since the added ground marking feature should make game easier
