Assignment 3: Interactive 3D

Create an interactive 3D software (based on XNA, for instance) that allows the use to walk through a dungeon composed of a floor, a ceiling and a maze of walls, all of them equipped with textures. The walls are placed pseudo-randomly on a square grid of at least 50 times 50 units, see for instance Wikipedia. While moving through the maze, the user cannot penetrate the walls.

Here are some ideas if you aim at four points:

For speedup, remove a substantial number of walls from the rendering that are currently invisible anyway.
Let the floor appear shiny by overlaying mirror images of the walls.
Develop shaders to create the illusion of a flashlight that the user sways around in a more or less random fashion.

In a three-person group, turn the maze into a museum by putting framed images onto the walls and modern-art sculptures onto the floor. The frames of the images are added during rendering. For four points, implement at least two of the additional features listed above.
