Great game. the art looks great and the controls are really good. its also nice that pac-man has an actual brain and tries to avoid the player.

Great game. Keep it up♥

Loved the idea, very classic. It was too hard to catch pac-man, but managed to do it once :)

Developer

Thank you for playing! I would seek a better balance point for the difficulty.

Thanks!

Gavriel, I must say that your game is impressive. I wanted to create a similar concept myself but ultimately chose a different direction. Well done,  and congratulations on the excellent outcome! Adding more levels would make the game even more enjoyable.

Thanks for playing! Yes I cant agree more and I am planning to have some extension for the game. Thanks again for your suggestions :)

Wow, I figured it'd be a fun twist going in, but after playing, your version honestly feels like it has more depth than the original game! I probably didn't play optimally, but marshaling the ghosts was a lot of fun -- if only pacmac didn't eat the power-up and wipe out my ghosts right when I almost had him trapped :(

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! I totally get it. Yes that the part of the game but I do think the rythm of the gameplay and difficulty would need some improvement XD. I would need to find a better balance point for it like maybe have some nerfing ,buffing or new mechanics I think.

I liked it a lot! Had the same idea at the beginning of the jam but didn't know how to implement it well, I'm glad I can play that idea now :P Good job!

Developer

Thanks and glad to hear you like it :)

Nice role reversal in Pacman. The control is strange at first but I can manage.

Developer

Thanks and yes the control definitely need some more enhancement to make it more agile I believe

A cool game, I like how you can set up traps by switching between the ghosts to corner and catch pac-man, and how you must rapidly switch between attack and defence when pac-man collects a large orb all while multi-managing your ghosts. And I love this take on pac-man's graphics!

Developer

Big thanks for playing and I am glad that you got the idea of my design! 

Submitted(+1)

Fun idea, i just wish it was faster!

Developer

Thanks! I would have it being improved I think. I also have some other ideas about possible props and gameplay adjustment.

Good game! It has exactly the right difficulty.  I also like it that pacman actually wins the game if you don't interact, a good ai. Great job!

Btw: you made it to my list:

Pacman forever!

Developer

Thanks! Yes PACMAN FOREVER!

Not bad! But feels a little clunky.

Developer

Agree, I think it would still need some improvement on the control method. Thanks for your suggestion!

Submitted(+1)

Nice idea, I just could not control the ghosts that easy.

Developer

Yes it is kinda hard rn and still needs some adjustment. I was hoping to make it to be controlled more smoothly
