The link to my final project is...



I have been having some technical difficulties with the images on most of the pages. I have finally discovered that the issue stems from the image address being...

I have spent a long time trying figure out why it has been interpreted that way, but I have yet to find a solution. It sounds like a simple naming or directory issue to me, but I have combed through and experimented with those categories and found nothing.

I originally had used layers within Nvu to track the player's progress as to where he/she was in the maze, which was pretty awesome, but the images did not show up properly. At first, I discovered there was a spacing issue that just needed either a different alignment or a table to fix, so I fixed it. But then I encountered the same problem as now where the majority of the images simply did not show up.
I tried to simplify the image set up by putting the same map view on every page in hopes that that would solve the problem (because the original map without the layering did not have any problems at first).

Unfortunately, I have yet to solve that problem. I will continue working on it though, because I would like to enlarge this project and add more pathways and obstacles to make it even more fun and challenging.
I also realized that the map layout can be adapted for virtually any situation. It could be used as a game where a college student must navigate through campus, an astronaut must navigate through space, an explorer must navigate through a jungle, etc.

The best way for me to solve the image problem may just be to ditch Nvu and SSH, so I'm going to keep on trekking. I'll keep posting my progress on this blog.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
thanks
