iMaze version 1.2 December 1994
by Hans-Ulrich Kiel and Joerg Czeranski
at the Technical University of Clausthal
iMaze is a multi-player network action game for TCP/IP with 3D graphics
under X11/XView. You run through a labyrinth and shoot other player
playing over the net and computer controlled ninjas.
The idea is taken from MidiMaze 2 on the Atari ST, although not all
features of MidiMaze 2 are implemented yet.
iMaze requires the XView library (OpenWindows). It was tested on
- SunOS 4.1.3 with cc and gcc 2.5.8
- Solaris 2.3 with SparcWorks C 2.0.1 and gcc 2.5.8
- Linux Slackware 2.0.1 with gcc
- HP-UX 9.05 with cc
- Ultrix 4.3A with cc
New features of version 1.2:
- score
- X resources
- client doesn't terminate after disconnect,
you can reconnect to same or other server
- 2 hours timeout for the ninja
- a message is sent to players that you kill
- most known bugs were fixed
The newest version is always available on ftp.tu-clausthal.de
(139.174.2.10) in the directory /pub/unix/games/imaze.
You can fetch it via
- anonymous ftp,
- fsp (port 21) or
- email to mail-server@ftp.tu-clausthal.de.
We will also upload it to sunsite.unc.edu and ftp.x.org in the
next days.
