Not Pacman! (Revision 7)


It's like pacman except not.
And you can play it too (Well at least what I currently have)

It's time attack mode, collect all 244 pellets as fast as you can.

Controls are either mouse or arrow keys, though keys is kind of limited. I need to make the controls smooth out. I realize that I will pretty much have to perfect the controls in order to make this fun. Change with C.
There's currently 2 different powerups for time attack: "clone", which creates a pacman clone which can also collect pellets, and "walls" which makes pacman pass through (most) walls.
You can change the powerup with 'S' (not while you are using it). Tell me which one you like more (because I won't keep both) and what I should change.

Keys:
C - Change input mode
F - Change camera to focus on pacman
P/M - Make bigger or smaller (don't overdo it..)
R - Restart
S - Change powerup type
ESC - Quit

pretty neat, kinda easy however.

Well obviously a mode in which you can't die is kinda easy.
"regular" mode will have ghosts.

Interesting, although the mouse mode is really annoying.

EDIT: best time: 77s

Pretty neat, I had fun with it.

Game is cool, I like it.
Also, please grab the mouse.

Oh thanks, I totally forgot about that. I was actually thinking "Fullscreen is cooler because you can't go out of the window".

Fullscreen is annoying for something like this, please don't use that.

Well I don't plan on using it anyway, but why is it annoying?

Very cool idea. Looks great, too. A couple tweaks I tried:

• Holding shift to triple rotation speed. This made it a lot more fun in keyboard mode.
• Ghosts rolling around with you that you have to avoid. Made it a lot more challenging and interesting to play.
