Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

IMPORTANT NOTE :
Play this game with Chrome only, the game engine i made this game with works best with Chrome.

===========
Known bugs that cannot be fixed :

Enemies going through walls : the pathfinding behaviour in Construct 2 isn't considering the walls solid objects that the pathfinding objects should avoid for some reason, this isn't something that i can control or fix, sorry about that.

Sounds tearing with UZI for player : i have no idea why this is happening but i've tried changing the sound, the fire-rate and the volume but nothing worked. sorry again.
===========
I like Pac-man, i like Top-Down-shooters so i thought i should mix them together and make this arcade game.

This is my first ever finished and my first attempt at making arcade games and not story based ones like i usually do.
(Surprisingly this took a month to finish)

All opinions, tips and suggestions are appreciated.

I love this, the style is neat, and it's addictive. Thats all you really need in a game.

Thanks!

It doesn't really feel like pacman anymore. Gone are the traditional maze layouts, the power pills that make the enemy run from you. Your controlling little tanks (on appearance, I could be wrong), and it just feels like a sped-,up nu-gen version of Atari's Combat.

<deleted> responds:

Well, true. i didn't add all of the traditional pacman stuff in this game like the mazes and power ups so yeah... you're right.
Thanks for playing anyway.

The game is unplayable on Firefox, but works fine in Chrome. For some reason, the controls respond randomly, sometimes with a delay of several seconds. It's probably because different browsers will not allocate the same resources to Flash or Unity.

Also, I noticed it's possible to get stuck outside the level, and putting the weapon on the player's position results in the fact that the player may leave the starting position without your weapon - and it looks like you can't grab it at all sometimes.

<deleted> responds:

Well yes, Construct 2 doesn't really support FireFox, also this is an HTML5 game, not a flash or Unity game.
Getting stuck outside the level is something impossible to remove, because the player wraps around the level meaning that there's enough space for the player to move between the the first side and the second for him to get stuck in, and the player not being able to grab the weapon is a bit of a mystery to me, i don't understand why but it may be related to the fact that i used an old version of Construct 2 to make this game.

Amazing dude!

<deleted> responds:

Thanks!

Fine Game but i think it is a litlle hard and you get so few ammo

<deleted> responds:

Thanks.
The ammo is randomly selected so you may get guns full of ammo and ones that have so little ammo.
Yeah, it's a bit hard i agree, and sorry if that bothered you.
