简体中文

Features!

In Game:

• Use the up, down, left and right arrow keys on the keyboard to control the character (the "pac-man"). Eat all beans on the screen while avoiding the chase of little ghosts, and the "Power Pellet" may save your life in danger!

• Don't forget to eat special food for bonus. The harder the level, the higher the bonus score!

In Code:

• All textures in the game are 8-bit pixel style (can be found in here), which simulates the poor hardware conditions clever solutions of Pac-Man games of the last century.

• The ghosts AI and game mechanics is similar with that of the original version. It’s an excellent cooperation strategy of enemies, only use very simple algorithm but makes the ghosts chasing the Pacman efficiently. (rendered in debug mode with Gizmos on)
