Kangaroo (medium)
This maze first appeared as the monthly maze competition for July 2013.
Named Kangaroo because it jumps around quite a bit, this is a wildcard variant of the Jumping Mazes. The number on each square tells you how far you can jump from that square to the next square. You start making horizontal or vertical jumps, but if you reach a circle you should switch to making diagonal jumps. Next time you reach a circle switch back to horizontal/vertical jumps, and so on.
In addition, in this maze some cells contain an asterisk; these act as wildcards, behaving like the last number you landed on.
Find the shortest route from the top left corner to the bottom right corner.
