PacMan meets Delivery Driver: you play as a parcel delivery robot, trying to evade dogs on your route. You send them home if you touch them after grabbing a parcel. They catch you if they touch you when you don't have a parcel.

Use the arrow keys to move. The game starts when you press an arrow key to start moving.

Refresh the page to play again.

(If you're not familiar with the gameplay of PacMan, the victory condition is to clear all the tiles without being caught by the NPCs. You'll see the paving stones become a plain pale grey as you clear them.)

Current version (Sunday afternoon) only has the PacMan game mechanics and some of the art - Delivery Driver mechanics to come (which will be to take the right colour package to the right house).... yea, that part's not getting done inside the jam.

Team: CocoMendes (Art and Music) and Rainsong (Coding)

I could see this game at my local arcade. Congrats on getting it out and playable! Level design is well thought out too!

Thanks so much. :D We hope to complete it in the form we originally thought of, later on after the jam.

Interesting take on a classic.

Real pac-man vibe indeed. Though, unlike ghosts, those doggies weren't so scary - didn't seem to be chasing me at all, when they were red... or maybe there was too much parsels around and they only went red at the end.

But old-school nostalgia did trigger with this one :D

Perhaps a little basic, but the mechanics you wanted to implement would have been a good addition by the sounds of it

Good game, feels very classic.

The controls are not very convenient, the game is too primitive, and the delivery theme is not well developed enough... 🐽
