To make a TI-82 maze you'd have to use text or just pixels, and there's no way
to do that quickly.  I wrote a 2d maze for the 82; each room filled the screen
and was just four walls, with holes for the door.  There's really not much
else you could do, unless you want to use massive amounts of memory to make a
3d version.  The 2d is real easy, but the 3d gets so long that it's just not
worth finishing.  At least it was when I tried.  I'd suggest that you use two
dimensions; if you can do three I'll be amazed.
