Get Lost! is a spacey 3D maze game played from a first-person perspective: the shareware version has a selection of 8 mazes, while the registered version features over 50 of them. The various maze layouts fully exploit the third dimension, with ramps, slopes and multi-leveled platforms; you are confined to the path (no jumping or falling), but you can look up and down. Certain floor sections may trigger actions - on the spot or remotely - and modify the environment in certain ways, which is often a necessary part of the solution.

The competition is against the clock, and when a maze is completed, your performance is compared with a hypothetical ranking of whimsical creatures. To make things more interesting, each maze contains a secret - finding it will often involve invisible (or hard to find) walkways, or performing some kind of hidden action. Discovering enough secrets will unlock entirely new secret mazes, too.

The Windows 98 maze screensaver was more than just a screensaver

A satirical take on a beloved memory for 90s kids

Let’s face it, if you don’t recognise the above image, your childhood probably sucked.

As a kid in the 90s, I can’t imagine what growing up would have been like without the joys of sitting in front of my clunky Windows 98 and virtually meandering through a heavily pixilated maze on a daily basis. It’s what I looked forward to most when I came home from school. Screw seeing friends and watching Cartoon Network, I was all about racing down those halls and bouncing off wafer-thin brick walls until I got to the smiley face. I HAD to reach that smiley face.

One night I didn’t reach the smiley face and my mum put some potato smiles on my plate for dinner. The trauma was too much. The potato smiles were staring menacingly at me, mocking me. I cried and ran out the room.

For us kids, the maze was more than just a screensaver — it was a way to test our telepathic abilities. If we stared at the screen long enough until we almost burst a blood vessel, we could navigate the maze left, right, forward, until we reached the smiley face. Me and my friend tried it after school — but we still kept bumping into gargantuan 2D rats and dead ends.

Proud to announce the latest slipmat ( after many requests ) that I've added to the ModMat Etsy store - The Circular Maze A handmade sublimated felt slip mat in either 12" or 7" Diameter. The design is a white circular 3d maze.. that literally looks a MAZE ing when it spins. The shadows and lighting on the 3D rendered maze is so subtle that as you can see it fools the eye in natural sunlight. The effect is very trippy indeed,

Using a slipmat on your turntable is essential for preserving the quality of your vinyl records and enhancing your listening experience. Slipmats, typically made from felt or other low-friction materials, reduce friction between the record and the turntable platter, preventing scratches and minimizing wear on your precious vinyl. This results in improved sound quality and extends the lifespan of both your records and your turntable's stylus. Additionally, slipmats allow for smoother and more stable rotations, reducing vibrations and ensuring consistent playback. Overall, incorporating a slipmat into your turntable setup is a simple yet effective way to protect your records and enjoy the best possible audio performance.
