Reverse Pac-Man by Novaki

[raw]
made by Novaki for LD33 (JAM)
A fun little project that I plan to keep developing where you play as the ghosts instead of pac-man. Maybe in the future I will make it multiplayer where you can choose to be either or and do away with the buggy AI.

Make sure to go into full screen twice for the controls to work. WASD, Arrows, or Xbox controller.

This looks like a really neat entry. I love where your head was at with your interpretation of the theme. For some reason I couldn't ever get the controls to work properly. There also seemed to be some sort of lighting issue, things would white out and take away from what appears in your screenshots to be a fairly solid aesthetic.

I love that concept. Graphic looks grat too. But gameplay is too slow for me :)

It's a great idea but need work. Pacman looks like crazy. Nice work!

Good idea, but needs to be polished.
- "Pacman" is very "random".
- Could show informations about "score" or something like this.
- Simple audio could make it better.
- Things goes very slow.

Good concept, I'm thinking Pixels movie :)
Movement extremely slow and should perhaps retain the old-school sharp horizontal/vertical movement instead of the smooth movement. Need to improve pacman AI :)
For ghosts, perhaps add all four and switch between them? (Not sure how practical that would be though, but could be a fun mechanic to explore).
