Roslyn C# allows runtime loading of assemblies and C# scripts using the Roslyn compiler making it easy to add modding support or in-game programming to your project. In addition, Roslyn C# also includes code security verification that allows you to specify a number of security restrictions that loaded code must adhere to including illegal namespaces and types. This makes it much safer to load 3rd party code from unknown sources.

Includes a small programming based game where the objective is to navigate a mouse out of a maze by writing code that performs the direction decision making.
