Pac-Man with a snowman, awesome

Couldn't run it on Win 7 32 bits.
I get the error "The version of this file is imcompatible with your version of Windows. Check if you need a 32 bits or 64 bits version.

I lost it at the you lost screen. Pretty hard though. It looks like the maze generation you used didn't have cycles. Makes avoiding the bad guys kinda difficult if they're in the way.

I really enjoyed this, for some reason it struck a chord with me. Great work for your first jam!

@Florent: windows executable is 64 bit only. I apologize for this issue, but you can still run it if you have python installed. Just download the source code. I'll talk to my partners to see if this issue can be solved.

@ForeignGuyMake: yes, the maze generator prevent cycles. If you're having an hard time with black snowmen try to make them killed by a bomb (bombs spawn at most 3 steps from you, so move close to a black snowman and wait for the bomb)

Thanks you all for your comments!

Certainly not bad, but incredibly difficult. The difficulty is not bad, but I think it's a bit too luck dependent.
After several times of spawning and immediately getting caught by a evil dark snowman, I had to quit. Wouldn't have been so bad if it wouldn't have taken so long to restart.

Fun game, always enjoyed the pac-man esque gameplay

Pretty hard, but the snomwan sprite is cute :) Liked how you got teased with the simple level at first.

It's looks boring, but it's very funny to play!
Need to get an achievement when killing 5 black snowman at once! :-)

puppetmaster 2014-12-09 21:49

Well done! :-)

Quite nice game. A bit too hard for me ;) I got trapped by the evil snowmen way to easy. Cool idea.

great

Snowman Pac-Man. Awesome!

fun, but glitches at the screen change, and when the bombs spawn you go invisable and can't tell what your doing.

Cool take on the theme, but I found the hit detection to be a bit spotty. Neat game overall!

really nice idea
