A Pacman clone for the Game Boy Color.

Features

  • 4 glorious mazes.
  • Silly ghosts that leer.
  • Cherries for the popping.
  • Guaranteed sound effects free.
  • Obscures scoring bug.
  • Absolutely no cheat modes.
  • Namco lawyers: it's reassuringly different to the original.
  • Spectrum-a-like font.
  • Continuous pause.

User guide

Move Pakman around the maze to eat the dots.

Press Start to pause the game (a hi-tech blank screen will be displayed until Start is pressed again). Every so often a cherry will appear, these are good for building up the score.

You get a bonus life every so many points (I forget the exact value; it's in the vars.h source somewhere). You can't have more than 5 lives at once though.

The game has 4 different mazes that simply loop around and around; however, once you've gone through a "set" of 4, the game will get slightly faster.

There is no sound. Do not adjust your Game Boy.

Controls

D-Pad - Move Pakman around the maze

Start - Pause the game

Compatibility

Seems to work fine on NO$GMB (which it was developed on) and on a real CGB.
