- appreciated. Thanks for playing, and I hope this game makes your life a
- little happier!

- The maze builder is used to edit mazes to load into Chomper3D. You can only
- load in mazes if you have a registered version. In the maze builder you
- define a maze by adding walls, dots, power dots, and ghost houses. After you
- make a few maze levels, you should then make a Level Project file. The Level
- Project file contains the file names of the maze levels which will be loaded
- when you load the Project file, this is so you can play multiple tiered mazes.
- All of your maze files must be in the Chomper3D/mazes directory, all of these
- files end with the extension .maz All Level Project files must be in the
- Chomper3D/levels directory, all of these files end with the extension .lvl
- Please note that if you try to modify the default mazes, you will have to
- re-install the program.
