Hello all,
It’s been quite a while since we posted, we applogize as we have been pretty busy on multiple projects which we will sumarize after the lead (more link?)

Hello there world wide web! Today we decided to give an update on our Maze Editor app for macOS and what we’ve been working on.
Code Sample – Sound Manager
In this post we decided to share the code that we use (with a few small edits) to manage our sounds in the iOS app (with little modification, it may even work on macOS!). And without further ado…

Solving a nagging problem
Did you ever have a problem that no matter how much you tried, you couldn’t figure it out? Well today we solved one (of course we have many, but that’s for another time) of ours!
UI – Issues Tracker
After working on the room properties UI the next thing we wanted to do was add a way to track different issues with a given level. Some of the things we wanted to track were:
