OS needed...........: MS DOS (and the like) Sound...............: I'm using MODOBJ of Mark J. COX better switch sound of while running windows don't expact anything spectacular its OLD Grafics mode........: 320x400 (modeX) Graphics interface..: Own design (inspired by PC INTERN, Data Becker) very slow, but sufficient for Pacman Processor needed....: 286 Language............: C, assembler (dirty) Input/Output........: Keyboard (own handling, might get in trouble with multitasking OS's) Joystick (own design), not auto calibrating Sourcecode..........: provided, just download it, but better get some aspirins too, it'll give you an headache... (I'm a registered owner of MODOBJ, I'm NOT supposed to give away a registered version of it. I've tried 3 times to get in contact with Mark J. Cox, I can't reach him. I want to give away the whole package, since his library is really sort of ancient, and there are way better once available for free (sort of free) like MIDAS sound system I think nobody in his right mind should have anything against distributing it for free as well. SO-> With the sourcecode I do give away my registered version. Mark if you are still out there say something to me!!! Is that allright with you? If not I will immediately withdraw your library from the package (and finaly use MIDAS with this game too...))
Some screenshots, for the people still reading...
(The game runs in a X-MODE, the screens resolution is: 320x400,
that means the pixels have a different size from what the usual PC user
is used to(use use use...). Because of that the game's screenshot do
not look exactly like the game. The pixels are all there, but their size is
different. When you look at them keep in mind that, for example,
the 'Pacman in action' screenshot fits exactly on
your monitor, there are no borders to the left and/or right)
The above picture shows the entry screen. Every level has one
like it. The player can get some information about the coming level.
The speed of Pacman
and of the ghost, how long they stay frightened, is it
worth to pick up the bonus? ... and so on...
