Pathfinding is quite tricky. Sometimes the routes seemed to be way longer than expected. Nice work implementing it anyway!

Great idea, a bit easy as I was able to corner pacman pretty quickly but has potential. Maybe each of the ghosts have to abide by certain rules in their movement or something!
The grafics are very neat and the concept is fun. Maybe it is a bit too easy since pacman get easily stuck in some positions.
Is there any difference when you progress in levels? I played some 7 levels and didn't notice any difference. Maybe you could add some point counter to give the player some more motivation.
Over all a solid game!
Btw: you made it to my list:

Pacman forever!
Fun idea! With a bit more variation and difficulty this could be a really fun one. Great job!
Nice game, but the pacman can be easily cornered with 2 ghosts and every level would just play out the same. I think having a better AI or a more complex map or powerups for pacman to eat ghosts can be there to make the game more interesting. Good job!
This is a really cool idea, it might be better if pacman was more mobile, but otherwise a very solid submission. Well Done!
Fun concept but the pathfinding is a bit weird. Like pacman just kinda chills in place until a ghost tried to get him. Pretty cool tho, had fun with this one 👍
Neat idea.
The pathfinding is very odd. Did you use a package or implement it yourself?
pretty fun little game, i tried forcing pacman to get all the points (spoiler: i couldn't)
Cool game ! Cool concept :) !
A bit sad that's it's a litle buggy but i can see the fun ;)
As a proof of concept this mechanic is great, give orders to your squad of ghosts. Picking a route is still buggy and Pacman isn't very clever, but pathfinding is a tricky topic to tackle in such a short time! If those features are ironed out, this could become a great mind-bending puzzler!
