FRACTAL MAZE | Create Unreal

Massive Update! 10 New Levels + More!

What is it?

FractalMaze is a very early game concept. The general idea is simple. Get to the end of the maze, only catch is you cant see the maze, and it is only revealed as you walk onto the platform. If this sounds like something fun, try out the early releases of it and give it a whirl! I just ask that you let me know your comments and feedback so i can continue top develop this!

Game plays super slow.

GRAPHICS SETTINGS : I am constantly working on performance. Please be patient. When the game opens it defaults to the "HIGH" graphics setting. However you can press [TAB] key once in the game and change the graphics setting to a lower selection to fit your hardware. You need to press [APPLY SETTINGS] for the graphics settings to take affect. All of these settings are saved and will be applied and next boot up. Quality Settings : LOW MEDIUM HIGH EPIC If you have other issues please contact me along with your hardware. AUDIO SETTINGS : You can adjust all of the audio levels in game individually. (Music, Voice, SFX, Menu Sounds) Use sliders to adjust volume higher or lower. Currently these sliders will not reflect the actual volume when closing settings menu and re-opening. Currently Audio settings are not saved when closing game.
