Note: please do not interact with any people that this video involves. It is against the rules and not necessary at all to solve the challenge.
Notice that a maze will only be solveable if its maze generated mod 2 is solveable.
Mazes mod 2 means that the PRNG returns the next value mod 2 instead of the current mod 6. A mod 2 maze is uniquely determined solely by the lower 18 bits of the seed.
