A downloadable game

MicroMaze was completed in less than 20 hours by myself for the 2024 GDD Spring Bear Jam. This is a maze exploration game where you play as an astronaut exploring randomly generated planets and defending yourself against aliens.

Move with WASD or arrow keys.

When aliens appear, make sure to plan your shots (clicks) carefully—you only have three bullets at a time!

If you are attacked and do not successfully slay the aliens, you are set back to the beginning of the level. I did not generate the pixel art myself, and the sources are here:

This is my second finished game! I made it in Java with the Swing GUI toolkit.
