MazeGenerator

This generates a "perfect" maze. The app just shows off its process in real time.

This was one of my first android projects (sometime around 2011). This version was re-amped (better interface and bug fixes and a few other things) about a year or two later for a small school project.

My technique was based on this description

Depth-First Search

This is the simplest maze generation algorithm. It works like this:

1. Start at a random cell in the grid.
2. Look for a random neighbor cell you haven't been to yet.
3. If you find one, move there, knocking down the wall between the cells. If you don't find one, back up to the previous cell.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you've been to every cell in the grid.
