Gostei muito deste jogo!!! Os gráficos são muito bons; não tenho certeza se o Game Boy aguentaria gráficos como estes, mas o estilo é muito legal, e também é bem desafiador. Incrível, 5 estrelas!!!

Love the 1st Person Pac-Man style you went with! I nearly finished the first floor when a ghost turned around and jumpscared me! 🤣

The pseudo-3d works really well with the gameplay.

I actually managed to get jumpscared by a ghost when turning around a corner.

Simple, but I like the environment. Nice spin on a classic idea.

Cool game! Reminds me of faceball 2000, we both did 1st person. I also have a pacman section in mine but very different takes on the same genre. Very cool!

Wasn't expecting to play 1st person pac-man but the laugh I got when I realized!! Knowing there was a ghost around a blind corner at any time added to the scare factor. The sprite art looks straight out of Pokemon blue.

Some of the ghosts began rendering odd at a distance? But other than that this was a lot of fun

Yup! I was writing up the description and I was like "Hm. How can I describe this without saying Pac-Man"

I didn't use GB Studio so the way the 3d is rendered might not be 100% how it would work on actual game boy software. But I think the results are close enough to something they could have done back then!

Neat idea, but doesn't feel very gameboy like imo. I like the graphics.

The turning is a bit tough i feel like if the character moved in the forward direction by his own it'd feel better
