Interesting. I can imagine the thrill of trying to catch Pacman as he cleans the board and comes after you. Each round ended with Pacman stopping at some point, accepting defeat. Like someone else said, getting stuck on walls was an issue.

Good concept, wish it had more feedback to the player and  wish it was a bit easier to move around! Keep getting stuck on walls. With a bit more time I can see this being an addictive twist on PacMan!

Thanks for the feedback!
To be honest, we tried fixing the getting stuck on walls issue but just couldn't do it in time.
the movement was supposed to be tile-based but we had to change it last minute due to some issues, that's why the movement is pretty janky.
We also had some power-ups planned for the ghost but that also got cut out due to time.
We will probably polish the game at some point in the future.
