Pac-Man Game Project: Design, Development, and Market Research

This project outlines the design and development of a new version of the classic Pac-Man game. The proposed game introduces enemy units to challenge players and incorporates a point system for scoring. It supports both single and two-player modes, with the two-player mode determining the winner based on the highest score. The game will include 'Magic Balls' that provide temporary advantages like increased attack power and invincibility. The project also includes a market research section analyzing the popularity of adver-games on various platforms, particularly browsers and smartphones, and compares the proposed game to similar titles such as 'Forget Me Not' and 'Paku Paku'. The project focuses on a 2D design and targets browser-based gameplay to facilitate user feedback, with potential for expansion to smartphones in the future.
