Maze Slaughter
A downloadable First Person Shooter for Windows
Hello ,
my name is Sascha Henrichs and I am the founder of Giant Gun Games.
Currently we are developing Maze Slaughter which is a fast paced, first person shooter.
Basically think of "Serious Sam in an American Gladiator Game show with a maze whilst piling up your enemies to mountains of corpses"
You got abducted by aliens and got thrown into an alien gladiatorial game show where you need to solve several stages in order to get your freedom back and get teleported back to earth.
The game show itself takes place in a giant stadium on a spaceship where new stages get build in every level.
The stages are filled up with randomly generated mazes where you will find new weapons and ammo and buffs.
Within these stage you will need to
- Shoot your enemies to survive
- Find ammo and buffs to survive
- Find out about the current objective in this stage
- Solve the objective
- Reach the exit teleporter.
Objectives or stage goals can be of different types. Chase, collect, kill, build, destroy, all of them are in.
In one stage, you have to create a corpse mountain the size of a family home, in another stage, you have to chase a small fleeing alien whilst being attacked by hundreds of big charging aliens.
Also there's a stage where you need to destroy a certain amount of the maze with the help of giants and rocket launchers in order to open the exit.
So a plethora of missions is planned and we aim for a stage editor, where the player can create his/her own stages and arrange a very own Maze Slaughter game show.
To solve all of the above tasks, you have several strategies.
- The enemies corpses are pileable and you can use these mountains of corpses to reach objectives or new weapons
- Destroy the maze walls to reach your destination
- Gain credits to buy brand new weapons and tools
- Use new tools like the lazer lash or the piling beacon 3000
- And in the end (if we succeed big time) get your colleagues into the game and play the stage in a 4 player coop
Our search for a publisher was yet not successful, but we will finish the game nevertheless.
And for that we just created a Patreon.
Every dime helps!

The current demo of the game is still a prototype version and large portions of the game are not implemented.
At this point you can start the game in the armory, play 3 stages and then win the game or die. The stage objectives are mostly the same for all stages except the first one. You have to collect 4 keys and then reach the center teleporter of the stages. Mazes vary in size and you can find several weapons in there. The Mines are even capable of destroying maze walls. But so are also the giants... which are giant enemies :) After an easy start you will find yourself in serious trouble soon.
However the game also has bugs and performance issues, since it is still only a prototype. Please have that in mind. With your help we will make it better!
Thank you very much!
