Project Description
During the lecture “7301p Projektarbeit 1” I redesigned the Pacman with a classmate as a multiplayer game. The challenge was to find a good multiplayer-mode which suits the game as well to implement it to be playable in the local network.
We decided to have a pacman for each player, playing against each other and having the ghosts as common enemy. Each ghost randomly select a new target-player after a given time-period. As an extra, there are some special power-ups available to make the gaming even more competing.
