[Denied] sploder game - Pacman by maxliam

Game: Pacman Original
Creator: Maxliam
**Introduction**
I know that Pacman by Maxliam is a very old game. But sometimes
the old ones can be some of the best!
**Review**
Pacman is a original game known by many people outside of
sploder. Like many other game, such as angry birds, a great
game-maker has re-produced the original version into an
enjoyable sploder game that get many views. Maxliam is always
devoted a lot of time and care to his games, and this is a fine
example of one.
The object of the game is to collect all the coins in a maze
before the time run's out. The time limit makes the game a
little harder, but more challenging. And I think challenging = A
good game!
Using the directions keys, the Pacman speeds up the longer you
keep your finger on that certain key until you crash into a
wall. It is also very easy to overshoot where you are going, and
if you are going very quickly and a ghost is coming your way,
well, your in trouble.
The enemies had graphics to look like ghosts. They follow fixed
paths backwards and forwards at particular points in the maze.
They are placed so that they cover a a number of coins. The
coins aren't impossible to reach, but more difficult than the
ones out in the blue. If you touch a ghost, you will lose one of
your 3 lives. They are set to follow a set path. I think the
game would be a bit better if they have a propeller and a tool
that made them follow you, but at half the speed of the pacman
player.
Every single coin out of the 398 also had a graphic (that must
of taken a while...). They are placed out over the maze, some
easier to get than others. Some are right next to a ghosts
turning point, others just out in the blue.
The graphics must have taken a long time as they are not only
designed with great care, but also are animated. If I went up to
somebody, say my dad, and said "Which of these is from the
original Pacman?" And showed him 2 side-by-side, he wouldn't
know the difference! I would rate on how the graphic's were
placed, but everything was a graphic! Which would of taken
longer, but it would of made the game more appealing.
**Pros**
The time limit makes it more interesting
Maze well constructed
graphics well designed
Enemy's well placed
**Con's**
Ghost doesn't chance pacman.
**Score's**
Graphic's 9/10
Baddies Placement 8/10
Maze construction 8/10
Altogether: 25/30
Feature worthy: Yes - It is a good game and needs to get out to
sploder!
EGL worthy: Maybe - I think it needs a few more feature's.
