jspacman

This is a faithful recreation of the Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man arcade games reverse engineered in javascript.

In order to play, the files must be placed on a web server and loaded in Chrome, Firefox, or Edge. Safari does not work

My goal in this project was to get as close to pixel perfect as possible. And I think it's fairly close, but there are some inconsistencies still. The game includes all credit/title scenes and cut scenes for both Pac-Man and Ms Pac-Man.

I've also coded in a gameboard observing algorithm for potential use in an A.I. implementation.

Controls are:

Shift: Insert Credit

Enter: 1 Player Start

2: 2 Players Start

Move: Arrow Keys or WASD

Space: Pause Game

F: Advance Game One Frame
