I dig this game. 5 stars.

Wow, amazing game! I really liked the design, this Pac-Man is so attractive and the ghosts are quite cute :) Nice controls and of course excellent exchange mechanics using vending machines, I liked the weapons and abilities, the dynamics typical of a boss rush. It's a pity I died when the boss had less than 20% HP left :)

Very Nice job!

Cool style, good idea and funny gameplay 

Really clever idea for a central mechanic, and a great use of theming to contextualize it as well. Great work!

Ended up using the buckshot recoil as movement instead of WASD which was pretty fun, amazing game. Pacman could get trapped very easily, but was just pause time for the upgrades!

Nice visuals and solid gameplay mechanics. Spending coins at vending machines to buy powerups is a well though mechanic and fits the theme of the jam very well. Cons of the game i think is that it takes forever to kill the boss and there's only one boss in a game jam called Boss Rush jam.  I think there should have been be at least a few bosses in the game. All that said, i appreciate that all your effor and hardwork you put behind this game. Creating that nice pixel art yourselves is also quite an achievement in my opinion. Keep up the good work!

"Well, Pac-man was originally called Puck-man. They changed it because... Not because Pac-man looks like a hockey puck. "Paku Paku" means "flap your mouth", and they were worried that people would change, scratch out the P turn it into an F, like..."


Good game, great pixel-art, NEED MORE!

I love the art and visuals! I had a hard time trying to get that 2D top down look right so you did a great job!

Despite a new crippling fear of Pac-man, this game was really really fun! I loved the rise in difficulty and tension and honestly the visuals look really good!  The health bar was a little high although once I got the shotgun it flew down! 

Honestly great job on this!!

I like the idea of the fight evolving overtime! It was a really good idea to theme it in an arcade too. I also liked your non-descript big yellow boss and ghosts lol

great game! it feels super good to play and keep upgrading the character. the dash felt a little difficult to contro, and i do think it gets a little too easy later in the game, because you get so many coins you can just keep getting your health back, but overall really fun game!

The game was fun! Until I got stuck in the decor because of stacking upgrades.
I really enjoy the silliness though, but i think the boss has a biiiit too much health ! 
Art looks awesome !

I like the arcade setting. It makes spend coins to buy something feel a lot more unique. Pac-Man as a choice of boss is very cool. The actual boss AI is quite nice; even though its simple, mixed with the environment its quite fun to dodge and weave while dealing with the kickback of your weapon.

Biggest complaint would be that the health bar was too high. Especially with the difficulty increase on the third phase, I think it would have been better if one could get their quicker.

SFX are nice, not distracting, good for the retro theme. The music is nice as well, also fits the retro theme well.

I like that you can shoot the arcade machines. The coins moving as things bump into them is also a neat addition.

Overall, a very nice entry.

Fun to play, wish there was more bosses.

Fun game. The art and the sound effects are really good.

I love games like this where you can completly break everythig  by only getting some upgrades, good job!

Fun! I love the spray and pray, sliding around just from shooting, good times.

Fun game, although it took me a couple tries. I really liked the art and sound effects.
