Description

Minos Maze Maker Lite is a versatile maze generator that creates myriad mazes and their solutions for you to print or use in your own publications. Add them to your newsletters, make and sell your own books, or even craft games from them. The puzzles you create are all yours to distribute and sell, royalty-free, no commercial license needed. Make them sweet and easy, or make them diabolically difficult. You will be building and printing professional-looking mazes right away.
This is the free version of Minos Maze Maker, which contains many of the ready-to-use features of the Full and Pro versions.

FEATURES:
* Quickly create one, or dozens, or hundreds of wildly unique mazes.
* Choose from several built-in maze shapes: Square, Circle, UL-Wedge, LR-Wedge, Round Peg-Square Hole, Mushroom. The Full and Pro versions have many more.
* Create mazes ranging in size from 8x8 up to 20x20. Full version goes from 5x5 to 50x50, Pro goes up to 80x80.
* You are not stuck with regular square cells... you can choose mazes to be built with square, hexagon, delta/triangle, or "octo-grid" cells.
* All created mazes are yours to use and publish and make money with, no copyright restrictions or restrictive "commercial use" clauses!
* Work without a net... you never need an internet connection to create, save, and print your mazes.
* Your work is safely yours. Your mazes stay on your computer. Minos Maze Maker never requires you to create an account, and never stores any of your information in the cloud.
* Draw normal walled mazes, or draw lines along all the inner paths.
* Easily change the maze difficulty. Simply move a slider from "very easy" mazes to "very hard" mazes, without worrying about all the details of how it works.
* Customize the cell wall colors and thicknesses, and even make them wiggly for that hand-drawn look.
* Easy printing of the maze and/or solution right to your printer.
* Export high-quality images of your mazes and solution keys for layout/publishing in your own books, newsletters, social media/web/blog, games, classroom handouts, or CNC/laser-cutter machines. Supports PNG. The Full version also supports PDF, JPEG, SVG, and POV-Ray file formats.
* Save a "snapshot" your custom layout settings so you can instantly build other mazes with the same "look".
* Mazes will always be built with only one guaranteed solution, no islands here!
* Supports Dark Mode and Full-Screen mode.
* Comprehensive built-in 50+ page User Guide, containing tutorials and tips and describing every option, getting you up-to-speed right away. Advanced features are explained, helping you create high-quality and uniquely personalized mazes.

(The name "Minos Maze Maker" hints at the the story of the ancient Greek king Minos who hid his Minotaur monster away in a labyrinth.)

Version 2.1.0

* Small mazes (12x12 and smaller) will cycle through more varied solutions as you hit the BUILD button, instead of often repeating the same solution. (Thanks JamesR)
* Maze building now works a little harder to find more possible maze solutions, and more accurately chooses between shorter and longer paths (based on difficulty.)
* Added a "What's New" Help menu item to display list of new features in this release.
* All Font-chooser popup-menus (Title, Maze-Phrase, S/E letters,...) now display the list of fonts *in* the font itself for WYSIWYG choosing.
* New "Infinity" (lemniscate) shape added.
* Added a separate path color for the SOLUTION page, so that you can now have a "Path-only" maze with a black path for the puzzle, and a (different) light gray path for the solution side, allowing you to then set the solution marker to be a more visible black line.
* RENAMED the geometric shapes so they are shorter and have no space or dash in their names.
* Added "Filename Layout" popup menu to the EXPORT window, allowing you to re-arrange the order of the exported filename components.
* Added other arrow style options (Thick, thin, pointy) for the solution arrows. (Thanks Jen)
* Export pane now displays more info about image size in inches.
* When Export detects that you are about to overwrite an existing file, the warning dialog is reworded and has a new button "Overwrite all", so you can plow through and overwrite prior exported files easily. (Thanks Thomas!)
Bugs Fixed:
* Export "Dimensions" prompt is a little clearer and refers to 72 DPI (or 96 DPI for SVG) to more closely match expectations, especially with PDF files. (Thanks JamesR)
* Export Filename text field now detects and disallows pasting text that is multiple lines or too long.
* Export & Print are no longer allowed when you open an empty window and have not yet built a maze.
* Added a checkbox in the Export dialog letting you turn on/off a warning if about to overwrite existing files when exporting. (Thanks Thomas!)
* Fixed up About Box scrolling weirdness on MacOS 12 and newer.
* Puzzle Title Text entry field is easier to read in Dark Mode.
* Resetting all colors to B&W no longer clears any already-built maze, but just refreshes the colors, as it should.
* Fixed a slight "color drift", where saving and re-opening a document would re-load any saved white colors as slightly darker not-quite-whites.
* Fixed a problem where resizing the main window could make the title-bar go up off the top of the screen, and "going full-screen" didn't arrange the window properly, now fixed. (Thanks Jen!)
* Added a new "no-direction" image for the Start/End wall direction buttons when you drag the marker into the interior of the maze. (Thanks JamesR)
* The printed page margins are wider now (Thanks SteveD!)
* Shrank the Intro Screen so it fits on tiny MacBooks, but is also slightly resizable (Thanks JamesR!)
