Description:

A mod that adds some Pac-Man related symbols to the game. All the fruits are already there, so…

Please let me know what you think of the balance, and also any additional synergy suggestions.

Pac-Man
Rare
Gives 3
Destroys all adjacent Keys, Magic Keys, Cherries, Oranges, Apples, Strawberries, Watermelons, and Flagships. Gives 5 (common), 10 (uncommon), 15 (rare), or 30 (very rare) for each symbol destroyed, depending on their rarity.

Flagship
Uncommon
Gives 2
Gives 1 more if there are at least 2 Flagships. Gives 10 when destroyed.

Red Ghost
Rare
Gives 3
Destroys adjacent Pac-Men. Gives 40 for each Pac-Man destroyed.

Known issues

  • Keys and Magic Keys will play their "unlock" sound when destroyed by Pac-Men. I’m not sure if there’s any way to stop this right now.
  • All symbols are currently hard-coded. Ideally, I’d have a "pac_man_likes" group added to all the symbols (currently impossible without overwriting outright), and then just check their rarity (also currently impossible).*

To-do

  • Power pellet symbol that allows Pac-Men to temporarily destroy Red Ghosts instead of being destroyed by them
  • Potentially add the other ghosts, if I can make them all unique from each other somehow
  • Sound effects

* Wink wink, nudge nudge, TrampolineTales.**

** No hate though, love your work. <3
