My wife and I were entranced by this for quite a while. I particularly like the explanation in the text box. Makes me wish we had a "programming" category or "computer science" category, but I'd give it high marks there as well.
Cool project!
I think you should enhance it... make the maze bigger. Add a piece of cheese as the goal, and change the ellipse to a mouse! Next you can add some intelligence to learning the proper path ;-)
This is cool project. I did a remix of Canthiar's maze project on Scratch site making it user playable. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/nevit/684432 It uses a different algorithm for generating the maze. You might be interested.
