New Generation Software have, in my opinion, come up with a winner in this delightful package.

The main menu is clear and concise giving easy instructions with a screen editing panel letting the user have fast drawing. A y/n response to most editing commands is a great help in failsafe design.

Two cursor designs give maximum visibility to complex screens, and the use of an x/y line to give cursor location is simple to understand and accurate.

Another feature I found a dead cert for the maze designer is the thick 3-D brush stroke, giving a various shaded wall effect at a 45-degree angle.

The greatest thing about Lightmagic though, is the user ready icons - everything from helicopters to tanks, boats and bricks. Just take your pick, move it around with the cursor and bingo! Instant games! This was what I was looking for in all these games - user friendly with instant results and no complex programming.
