Well my idea is to have a safe(ish) spot in the very center of the maze. As the player you would venture into the maze to collect resources to keep yourself alive long enough to escape.
I’m wanting a day/night cycle where at night the maze will close off which could leave you trapped inside at night. At night I would have 2 or 3 different types of enemy’s that would emerge and want to kill the player.
I was thinking about adding traps as well in odd places that could catch the player of guard or even to use as a means of killing the enemy’s. At the moment I’m still working on the general structure of the maze and today I’ve worked on the second tier. To get onto this tier you would need to find a ladder that would allow you to get onto the wall. My end goal it to have area’s on top of the archways as a tier 3. I feel this helps a lot with feel of the maze with the elevation change. I do however need to do a bit more planning on this part as allowing the player complete freedom on top of the walls would ruin the feeling of the maze.
