No Way Out


No Way Out is a fast-paced arcade-style shoot-'em-up that combines traditional shooter elements with a frantic race against the clock. Blast your way through walls and obstacles, eliminate the creatures infestation and avoid the massive spiked roller that's always on your heels.



In this game, AMMO is worth more than GOLD! It is necessary to make way through the maze and to destroy the enemies that chase after you. There are ammo boxes scattered throughout the maze, but despite this, use it only when there is no other alternative, because it is quite scarce.



The Mazes are randomly generated allowing for different ways with each new game. Think twice before choosing a path because you can be NO WAY OUT!



In the maze there are many creatures that will threaten the player, such as wild animals, indestructible cyborgs, monsters that eat ammo boxes and even creatures that break down the walls to hunt you wherever you go.

No Way Out is the game of RH Games I like most. Once in a while I still play in Hard mode. Play it in cooperative mode with a friend is so much fun.

The end result of this game was much better than we expected. The gameplay is different and requires quick decision making in order to survive in the maze, which is built randomly.

Long ago, I had programmed a random maze generator that can be seen in the image below. I always wanted to create a game project using this random maze generator. This project took shape with the "No Way Out" game.
