A Pico-8 port of ABA Games' Paku Paku, the 1D Pacman game by Kenta Cho, with some small changes and added features.

I think it's pretty fun!

Controls

Press 'x' to start, and change the direction with the left and right arrows.

While the ghost is red, it'll eat you, but if you eat a power pellet, it becomes briefly weak, and you can eat it.

Scoring

  • Each basic pellet is worth points equal to the current level.
  • If you eat the ghost when it's weak, you'll get 10 times the current level.
  • After half of the pellets on the current level have been eaten, a fruit will appear, if you eat that fruit, you'll get points equal to 20 times the current level. If you finish eating the pellets on this current level, the fruit will disappear, so be quick!

Updates

2024-01-13:

  • Made it so ties between the player and the ghost always favor the player
  • Added a "New High Score!" splash
