Pacman

Pacman Nonstop

This is a recreation of the classic game of pacman, The only difference is that it is fast paced and has not concept of scoring. Although to keep things interesting there is a 7 level system. Each level the ghosts exit their home faster than before. There is not loosing condition however if the player dies more than 3 times the game starts again from level 1.  Touch support is present but this is my first time doing anything with touch so its a bit wonky sorry about that. Please file an issue  on github https://github.com/NimComPoo-04/pacman if you see any bugs, or you can also put them in the comment section :) That is all hope you enjoy the game.

This game was originally written in C and that is also what the main branch of the github repo reflects. That version depended on libsdl2. I tried to compile it through emscripten for the web but that effort was futile. Although I did manage to get it up and running it ran very slowly. So I decided to port the whole game to JS manually instead. As It happens there are a few differences in the port from the original C version. As reflected in the screenshots. The colors are a bit different and ghosts are wearing goggles o_O Rest assured there is very little difference in game play.

The JS version's main_loop is controlled by animationFrameRequest and there is no code to cap the FPS. The only thing stopping the game from running at the speed of light is hopes and prayers at this point LOL. The C version has a rate limiter and It is much better to play anyways. I would have loved nothing more than to provide a executable but I am on a raspberry pi and I doubt any one is playing games in one of those :( sorry about that.
