References

I forgot to put this up earlier in the week, but here are some links to some references I looked into before I started designing and making my map.

First I went to the quick and dirty Wikipedia.com

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labyrinth


Here I learned what the differences are in a maze and labyrinth. A maze is a more complex structure, which is harder to escape, where as a labyrinth possesses almost one path, that dauntingly creates a shape and/or image.

It is from this, that I gathered that I would rather prefer to make a maze rather than to make a labyrinth.

Looking online for more sites, I came across these two:

http://www.astrolog.org/labyrnth/algrithm.htm
http://www.amazeingart.com/maze-faqs/draw-mazes.html

Here is where i learned the technical terms and how to even create a maze for use.

Here is what I have thus far.

At this point I believe I could say that I've bitten off a lot more than I can "chew". I definitely hit some snags during this whole final project, but the biggest problem is the lack of time with an adequate computer in order to create this map. My dependence on the "Computer" in the lab is what lead to my downfall. Had I more time with a computer that can run hammer and Deathmatch at my disposal without any problems, I would definitely have finished this with a much better polished piece.
