Hey! Yeah, the idea was to *combine* BomberMan and PacMan. I agree that it is not the smartest take on the combine theme, but I learned about the jam fairly late so I didn't have much time. Also, the levels were done in a hurry during a lunch break so they might be a bit hard (I literally just played each of them once, I think).

Impressive for how little time went into it IMO. It even has AI, even if it's fairly easily exploited. This reminds me of a bit of trivia regarding a extremely difficult jump in I wanna be the Guy. It's nearly impossible and requires a pixel perfect coordination, even much harder than the rest of that infamously difficult game. The developer said they nailed it first try, so they didn't expect it to be difficult...
