This Donowan J. Foster must be a really pervert old guy.
Who could call this game AMAZING ???!!!

Come on, guys, stop the Foster-bashing.
The idea of the beep IS to be annoying.
The less beeps the more points you get.
Testing your reflexes: That's the aim of the game.

Maybe not on a 3 GHz CPU.

Wasn't Abandonia ment to be only for the godies? Why do we accidentally put up some awful games?

Or this one has some hidden qualities?

Well, Abandonia is quality before quantity, but we make an occasional exception. You have to reach the bottom to appreciate the top, right

Well, public rating is now 2.8 (141 votes). Not to bad
And as Kosta explain in an interview given to German newspaper Die Zeit Abandonia is also some kind of Archive-Museum!

All of this is about gaming history k:

Yes, you are right! I love labyrinth, like supaplex and pac-man, one of favourite game's genre to me!

This is Donovan W. Foster

It was interesting reading all your responses on experiencing my game. I am not rolling over in my grave just yet. or waking up with cold sweats. I take no offense to the repsonses. The game was written probably before any of you were born with technology we had back then. It made it around the world on BBSs back then in the freeware market and I made more than a few bucks. I was then approached by a software marketer in Canada saying they would very much like to market my game for me if I would make it better, like make it run on any computer fast or slow, make it with various levels of play and speed and keep high scores.

I had to dig out my old code and I had better technology from the original I copyrighted in 1983. I upgraded it and did all they asked and copyrighted it in 1990(which is still probably before most of you were born)

It was still the same game with more speeds and it plays on any computer and with high scores. They also wanted a new name so we came up with Labyrinth, it is also version 2 of the original Amaizing Maze.

With that said I can upload the newer version for Abandonia to post if there is some (albiet slight) interest.

Dear Mr Foster
Abandonia is always interested in acquiring a more up-to-date version, if one such exists.
Please contact Reup, one of our administrators, for login details to the upload FTP.

Welcome to the forum. We're glad to see authors still taking an active interest in their old creations.

Added Amazing Maze v2 as extra, thanks Donovan. k:
