Cool take on PacMan. A bit too easy since you can corner the thief very fast with the many cops you have. The concept is cool and fun though. Very nice stuff!
The controls could use some tweaking, but there's so much potential with this. I hope you continue working on it. It is already really fun to play as is :)
Great game!
The concept of sorround pacman with your skills is cool! Had some problems figuring out the controls at the beginning, but not a big issue. Maybe you can differentiate the policemen so that everyone has his own speed, skill etc. Anyway, good job!
Yeah, that's originally what I wanted to do but I struggled to get the pathfinding working correctly. I may make a post jam update.
Nice idea reversing Pac Man! Took me a while to figure out the controls.
Maybe it's a little too easy without the robber actively trying to avoid guards.
Yup. Too easy. Wish I had more time to work on it.
Yeah, it's a kind of AI that screams "signed distance field" to me. Could be a fast way to improve it a bit
Funny guard game good polish on the pathing for the guards/the effects for pathing + the AI's attacking during the orb pickup. Unique twist on pacman would love to see levels made. [Also we found it might be harder to let the thief win so potential win-con achievement maybe]
Chat - "this must be a really bad theif"
im very bad at losing
I don't understand the controls. Help!!
Left click to select the police, right click to move them.
Nice game Krea, I like the path finding system you built
Found it a bit hard to figure out how to control the policemen. Cute implementation of reverse pacman though, and I like that you reskinned it too.
Short and sweet!
A bit hard to control the policemen, but I got the hang of it. Nice to see someone else implement path finding this game jam!
Fun re-theme on a classic.
A tutorial would have been helpful but the idea is great. Had fun playing this!
Funny concept the thing of reversing pacman. Just for you to know, next time try to upload it in rar!
I got a virus warning when opening it
I always get messages like that when I open other peoples games from jams. There is not much you can do about it.
Great presentation, but I found it hard to work out what I was supposed to do. D:
really love the art style
A Really Interesting Spin On The Theme And Also Love The End Messages, Maybe Some Tutorial Text Would Be Nice But That Honestly It :D Good Job!
There's a good amount of strategy involved, which is great! Other pacman but playing as the ghosts games i've seen are more chase than strategy, so this is nice twist!
The concept might have been easier to understand with more retro vibes? and a larger map would have added a good amount of difficulty, but it has a lot of potential ! nicely done 🙂
The AI for the ninja is cool, but the game is a bit confusing, the concept it there tho and really cool! good job!
Thank you. Personally I don't like the burglar's (or ninja's) AI because sometimes he runs straight into the police but I appreciate the feedback.
It wasn't very clear what I had to do and I still don't really know. Also there was one cop that moved and I spam clicked him and I won. If it was more clear what I had to do then the game was more fun too play. The idea was very good tho and could be expanded.
hou jij ook van kaaskroketten
Unfortunately I have to agree with you. I was in a time crunch when I made this and I did not explain the controls. You left click the cops to select them and you right click to move them and the point of the game is to catch the burglar.
