Clever idea and name- enjoyable for a short play.
Cool idea. I think the mouse movement is very clever, as it allows you to move multiple gohsts at the same time. However, you won't really need it, as the AI is pretty exploitable and having 3 ghosts is very OP. The game doesn't have a lot of replay value but I liked how close it was to actually being pac man. (Also the name is hilarious lol)
You did good job! It was a little weird getting used to it at first but then I finally destroyed that cheese monster.
Nice idea, though somehow familiar :-D
I felt a bit like being on the run all the time. Pacman is quick and there are quite some pellets around the screen. Took me three atemps to beat the game and also only because pacman almost ran into me. But was fun to play!
Btw: you made it to my list:

Pacman forever!
Its reverse pacman! I like it! Nice job :D
It was a pretty fun game!
Didnt managed to kill pacman but concept is nice :)
To be honest this game feels a bit empty although I can see it being an entertaining game if you had more time to improve and expand it because the concept seems quite fun. Still, Good Game though!
Its quite short and sweet, I enjoyed it though.
The idea is cool but I think the AI for Pacman can be improved further if you had time.
you can trap him by leading him away from the power-ups and then it does not run away.
Good, I wanted to do something like this, but I doubted that I could do AI for pacman, but you did it!
Super fun concept!
Cool concept! Looks like when pac man takes 2 consecutive pills, the timer doesn't reset. I tried my best to trap pacman but he outruns you, so my best shot was to always escape with my 3 ghosts until there is 1 pill left and at least 1 ghost alive, so that last ghost waits near the last pill for pacman to take it. You can easily catch pacman in that scenario.
Short and sweet. Controlling all 3 ghosts is tough when Pacman can just beeline for the pellets. Even in a 3 on 1 fight, it feels balanced. It would be fun to see this made as an asymmetric multiplayer game, where a human player gets to play Pacman.
Im pretty sure the the ghost that are hunting me when playing as pac-man do a lot better job xD
Cute game, nice job!
