A totally normal Pacman by Leandro4002
This is just a totally normal pacman game. But weird stuff seems to happen, the thunderstorm going on outside is causing glitches in the game.
There is still a rare bug where the ghosts may have incorrect positions.

In terms of innovation, it uses mostly known characters and "electric perturbation" resulting in an instability isn't uncommon.
It follows the "Unstable" theme quite well even though it seems more like "Chaos", maybe a little more instability would have been good like turning the game more and more into 1's and 0's.
In terms of graphics, they seem for the most part to be already existing graphics so no comment.
In terms of audio, balance seems quite good expect for the gun sound that is way too loud.
In terms of mood, it's standard at most and then it turns into chaos more than into "Unstable".
Overall, it's nice for a Ludum Dare but a bit disappointing for a "game". Feels a lot like a cheap game you would find on Newgrounds.
Yeah that would make more sense
The controls are a bit floaty, the assets not that original... But other than that, you made a creative platformer entry.
Very cool and fun! All 5
It was a neat idea excecuted very well. I like your lighting and physics! And it's nice to see another monogamer out in the wild 😁
It follows the theme and it plays well, overall a great jam entry
good job to all involved 👏
