Very interesting and very good art, someone mentioned a bit lower that its a bit easy to catch the hunter, perhaps if more levels are introduced in the future you can have more paths so its more difficult to trap the hunter.  But over all it was very cool very good work.

Love the reverse Pac-Man concept! I can definitely see it growing into a fun strategy game!

Nice Game! The twist in the storyline with the treasure hunter is cool. I like the grafics too. Good presentation at that. Congrets!

Here are some smaller points I just happened to noticed: The titlescreen says Blinky's Mansion whereas game's title is Inky's. If you don't move the hunter gets eventually stuck. So you don't loose if you just do nothing. I had to "help" the hunter to get to see also the game over screen. Catching the hunter seemed a bit too easy to me. Maybe I was just lucky.


Btw: you made it to my list:

Pacman forever!

Hahahaha. I was wondering if anyone would catch that. I changed the game from Blinky to Inky because Inky is the blue one that I put in all the title graphics... but I forgot to tell my partner that I did that. Oooops. :-)

Cool concept, I think if it were easier to see which ghost you had selected it would go a long way, but I understand the time constraint :)

Yuuup. There was a crown that was supposed to be on the head of the ghost you controlled... but we ran out of time to get it into the game.

It's quite fun placing ghosts in strategic parts of the map, and swapping between them trying to corner Pacman! I think it'd help if the active ghost was highlighed in someway, so that it was very clear which ghost I was moving. But fun concept overall !!

The concept is really cool! but It really need some sounds and more feedback overall. Also the game got softlock once I win the game :/


This concept have good potential tough. Keep it up!
