New Features and Bug Fixes in This Version:

• Intro animations added. Between-level animations probably next.
• View changing bugs squashed.
• Many bugs squashed (many more created, too, I'm sure)

Known Bugs:

• ghosts still flash while game is "frozen" for ghost death sound
• sometimes when you beat a level it takes away all your lives and ends game
• pacman/ghost wrapping should move entirely off board then come back on it
• looks like occasionally the pinky (turn strategy) er maybe actually orange (smart lookahead strategy) flies around real fast

 

Missing Features:

• some complexity in text and 2D views
• isometric Pac-Mania view
• 3-D view is implemented, but it won't work without a plugin. Plus it sucks
• animated intermissions after every 2nd level
• moving fruit a la Mrs. Pac-Man
• walls and super-size Pac a la Super Pac-Man
• netscape support - supposed mediatracker bug
• add insert coin / 2-player option
