How does your game fit the theme?
Instead of playing as Pac-man, you are the last dot in the stage, and you must try to escape being eaten.

We used pre-existing audio
I must say that this game was very fun to play!
I think the ghosts are a little overpowered, maybe you can add levels with less of them so that Sac-man isn't always diying from them haha
Great game, okay graphics and the way you displayed the UI was cool too! I enjoyed it! Thanks!
I loved the intro to the game and the concept is executed pretty well :)
I wish it was clearer why we were winning though. Often times I'd just press the berry button and seconds later I'd win. I think it's because "Sac-Man" is hitting the ghosts but it's hard to tell with the camera placed squarely on the pip.
Otherwise, good job :)
Extra cool intro! I give you an extra star for this. Nice fast paced game. Also a creative approach to take the dot as playing character. Most Anti-pacman games give you the role of a ghost. Perhaps the difficulty could be increased somehow though I also don't know how. You already made the ghost enemies of the dot too. Altogether a good job done!
Btw: you made it to my list:

Pacman forever!
Cool game! I thought the visuals were good and I thought the UI was really fluid. It would be nice if the game had a few more difficulty options, since there were some times when the level would end very shortly after starting. But it was all very well put together.
Got the idea! The major problem of this game is that I need to see the whole map so make a strategy, not only a single part. Want to try it with this modification!
Impressive game! I thought the ghosts were friends :\ it was pretty fun tho
Cutscene is very cool. Wish the game lasted a bit longer because its fun and a cool concept! Also your menu is immaculate.
Great cutscene! I think going with a 3d game instead of a 2d is quite nice -- it really makes it more intense! When you lose it says "start" but takes you to the menu -- it should probably say "menu" and then also add a separate button that says "restart"? Very good though!
The intro cutscene is great! It was fun trying to manipulate pac-man towards the ghosts but making sure not to touch the ghosts at the same time. Hope you add even more to this post jam!
An interesting twist for sure! The only critique I can give is that the game can end way too fast, and while the spinning camera when you spawn in looks cool at first, it can quickly become dizzying if you die and restart a few times.
I love the idea a ton, and the intro was epic, but it was way too easy. It was also possible to win immediately after pressing play before you can even see pacman. Maybe if you zoom out the camera and spawn multiple pacman it would be more fun. There was also a bug where when pacman eats the food, he sometimes flies and can no longer die or kill you. When I was brainstorming old arcade games to reverse the roles of, I'm shocked that I completely forgot that Pacman existed lol, but I ended up happy with Asteroids.
Wow, I like this a lot. The intro scene was pretty nice and I like how you can bait him into running into ghosts. Great work!
I don't understand why the ghost kill the dot. Also, the game felt a bit too short since pacman just "randomly" died in my run.
It's neat that you have a cutscene. I also liked that the button to continue after dying was in the same place as the start button.
Great intro! I like the concept but the game was too easy for me. However, good job!
