So, I finished my Pacman clone for my CMPSC class and it seems to be working great. Check it out and give me some feedback. Thanks.

@ Metroid Larvae

Thanks for sharing your game with us... I liked it, graphics are good and smooth, just a couple of points I noticed.
When Pacman reaches the cherrys he goes slightly behind them before they disappear.
Also when all lives are lost and 'Game Over' appears as a little text in the middle of a big black screen, what am I supposed to do then? there are no replay options.
Would be great to see any changes you make.

Thanks everyone.

@ Tone Dialer
Yah, I did want to add those features but with the time restraint I had to complete it I didn't get a chance to put that in. I may end up making changes but with school it probably won't be for a while.

Metroid Larvae you did very well, congratulations. To be honest I had never played PacMan before I tried yours and it gave me a chance to see what the game is about. I like it Maybe just a melody or a short song would make it better And I want to ask you about the blue ghosts. Aren't they supposed to eat you as well? Because nothing happens whenever I encounter one of them - eg. I don't lose lives or get restarted.
Good work once again, bravo

@ Lubo

The ghosts turn blue when you eat a power pellet. Those are the 4 square dots that you can eat. What happens is when they are blue you can eat them but when they are not blue they eat you. So, I set a time limit for how long they are blue then they turn back. In the first level you may not have noticed because it is pretty easy, but as you move farther in the game it gets harder.

Thanks for the compliments!

If you do updates on this game I'd like to suggest that when the blue ghosts get eaten that they head back to the corral and come out in their unblue forms after a delay. As it is, if you catch one close to the corral exit you can pretty much run back and forth over them, gathering points, until they go unblue. They also need to blink as they get ready to change back. It's hard to keep an eye on the text on the right and play the game.
