brap man forever
This project is SICK! I love Pac-Man with all my heart.
Any way/any plans to allow the other players to be CPU controlled? I'd love to have an 8 player bot battle lol.
Yes, in the next update you will be able to enable CPU players in Vs mode.
Awesome!
Also having CPU players running amok in Arcade mode would be funny but not required haha
This is AWESOME. How do we make you famous and get you lots of money?
I love this with a passion, please update this game to have more
Aye aye! Stay tuned, an update is coming sooner than later.
This is a wonderful game !
The pixel art and visual effects are beautiful, and the extra gameplay mechanics make the levels much more interesting and varied than traditional Pac-Man. The references to other Namco games are also great. This has become one of my favourite classic Pac-Man games.
I do have some complaints :
- The menus look a little basic and could use some extra polish.
- This game really needs gamepad controls. I'd love to try the multiplayer modes, but having to rely on keyboard controls makes this difficult.
Thank you! I am working on that. The game does have gamepad controls, just hit the "Key 1" button
That does work, thank you ! I hadn't thought to check the option. Also if I may suggest something else, I think a difficulty setting would be nice. By default, runs can last for a while, being able to make the game harder or easier would be helpful.
i broke it at round 103, it is in fact, not forever
I can't play the game. No, seriously, I'm unable to play this fan game.
Whenever I double-click the Godot icon or press launch on the itch app, the program suddenly closes after mere seconds of a dark gray screen.
I don't know if there's something special inside the game that is inaccessible on my computer or something, but either way, as much as how visually appealing it looks, I can't get myself access to it.
I did some research on this. If you're still having issues, perhaps check out this reddit thread started by somebody having similar issues. https://www.reddit.com/r/godot/s/X8SdLM5xs6
amazing game!! i’ve been playing it to death, its so good. i do have some feedback, though; i ran into an issue where the game generated a maze with no dots, effectively ending my game. i would love to see some sort of suspend feature, to be able to put down a run and continue it at a later time. i would also like to see more types of upgrades and power-ups, as the current lineup feels a little lacking; most outside of speed up, pellet time, and points up feel like traps. dot speed up is good, but can be a beginner’s trap if you repeatedly pick it up. colorize is really ovnoxious since you often get stuck with a palette you’re not keen off and miss out on an actually useful upgrade, and reset does more harm than good if you have any speed ups since the ghosts can scale in speed much faster than that.other than those issues i think this is one of the best pac-man maze games period, with beautiful art and love for all things namco.
Genuinely the most phenomenal traditional pac man game ive played wow!!
Just curious is the dark green ghost supposed to be Tim or an original character?
~someone who cares way too much about this franchise
That, my friend, is Punky. Tim shows his tan-colored face occasionally. Every ghost in the game is an official character, with two exceptions: the player summoned ghosts, Buddy, and the undead players, named Pac-Mortis, in VS. Mode. The sudden death ghost is Fred.
Very nice! Game plays nice and the 16 bit like sprites are very good.
I only can complain about the ui. The menus are a little confusing. I'm a graphist I can make you a mockup of a menu navigation that would be better if you want. Also you need a bigger logo for the splash screen.
I run it on a CRT, so its native resolution seems to be 514x290? I suppose it's 512x288 but you add 2px for some reason. Not a problem for me, but it's something to keep in mind
Also is it possible a 4:3 mode?
thanks
Awesome game! Devs should be very proud of their work
can i play this on my 3ds
Pac-Man is a yellow guy
no. he is green some times if he wants to be. just like kirby except not really because we all know green kirby is actually a different guy
Bes Gem Evr!!!! :D
Though it is a little slow on a laptop and other low end PCs. But that's not stopping me from having meh fun -w-
I wish I xould play Pac-Man Forever on my mobile device too
me score
Of all the people to recommend this to me, it's the Pizza Tower devs?!
how do i make it Work it just crashes on boot
It should just work out the tin. I don't know what the issue would be otherwise, sorry.
