Hello everyone,

I’ve been working on a simple 3D maze game for Android. The main idea is a daily maze: everyone plays the same maze each day and competes on a global leaderboard.

It’s designed to be quick and casual. Wordle-style sessions you can finish in a few minutes.

Features:

  • Daily Maze: same maze for everyone, resets daily, global leaderboard
  • Random Mode: no competition, solution button available
  • Duels: real-time 1v1 races on a randomly generated maze

I’d really appreciate feedback, especially on what features or modes would be interesting to add.

The app isn’t public yet because Google requires a testing phase, but testing is open. You just need to join a Google Group and then use the Play Store link below.

Google group: (It may show “you don’t have access to this content” but if you login you can request access. It’s unfortunately a necessary step for the App links below to work.)

App links:

Web: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.mazegame3d.app

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mazegame3d.app

(The App links above will only be available after joining the group. I’m very sorry, those are google requirements.)

Thanks!

    Unfortunately google has these draconian requirements for personal developer accounts, where they require “at least 12 testers to be opted-in for at least 14 days” during this “Closed Testing” phase, just to unblock production access.

    APK sideloads do not count as far as I know.

    I understand the motivation (reducing abuse and malware), but it does make things harder for small personal developers. Business accounts don’t have this requirement, so I may look into that.
