Interesting idea. I wish the movement was a bit less janky, its easy to get stuck on walls. And I would move the spawn a little further down so you can't just win by rushing to the top right power pellet every time. Good job!
Great game with cool graphics!
It could be harder to win though! :D
I had an alright time with it!
Pac-Man got suck on a wall a couple of times, which let me win pretty easily lol. Also idk if it was just me, but the characters move REALLY slow for some reason?
There's a lot that could be improved, but making something alone in 2 days is an accomplishment in and of itself to be proud of, and this is already a pretty decent base if you choose to expand on it in the future ^^
Thank you so much! it seems you encountered bugs I couldn't find while play testing the game haha, I really wanted to work on it more, but I was too busy trying to get an idea for a game other than pacman, but I guess I had to make pacman, and about the characters feeling slow, yeah I wanted to do something like strategizing where to attack, tho it seems it wasn't executed well. Thanks for the support hopefully I'll do better at next year's GMTK Jam, also about expanding the game I could do that one day, tho when idk. All in all thank you so much for playing the game!
Clever Idea, but pac man has always the same path so it's easy to always win, if pac man could have a random trajectory, that would be a lot more fun, but overall it's a great game, can you also play my game so I can get feedbacks please!
I really wanted to do that but because of how little time I had working on it, my only choice was to make a fixed path, maybe I’ll do that if I wanted to update the game one day.
Thanks for playing my game! I’ll check out your game.
Very clean visuals, good stuff :)
Thank you so much!
Wished there was more to it! Love the artsyle to it especially.
I really wanted to add other features but my time was so short I wasn’t able to add all the features I wanted to add.
I really like the aesthetic of the game.
I am curious though as to why you decided that pacman should move faster than the ghost
I wanted the player to strategize when to attack pacman, idk if I succeeded on that but I hope I got it right
Like the art style, a fun take on a classic
thank you for playing the game!
good game i think the ghost is a little slow but other than that it is a pretty good game
yeah I wanted to make the ghost faster but that would mean pacman would move even faster, for me I thought that having pacman move too fast would be a bit too fast for the player, but I guess it had an opposite affect.
Thank you so much for playing the game!
Hi! I also made reversed pacman and I also named it ghost-man(what are the chances btw) you might want to check out my game as well!
there is another guy in the jam who also made a reverse pacman and named it ghostman
I expected someone else to have the same concept but not 3 (maybe more if I look hard enough) hahaha.
I’ll check out your game and thanks for playing!
Yeah there are several xd
