Super-PacMan
Super-PacMan is a game written in Java
that was created as part of a mini-project 2
during my first semester of my first year at EPFL
In this game you embody PacMan,
a hungry little yellow ball
that is stuck in a maze with ghosts

Ghosts
Ghosts are present from the second level
There are 3 types:
- Blinky in red, who chooses orientations at random
- Inky in blue, who stalks you when you get too close
to him, and otherwise stay close to their refuge
- Pinky in pink, who stalks you when you get a little
too close, and doesn't hesitate
to stray from his refuge
He is also able to run away from you
when he is afraid
PacMan - Ghosts Interactions
Pay attention ! When you come across a ghost
in your path, it will eat you, causing you
to lose a life and respawn in your spawn position
Ghosts temporarily go into a frightened state
when you eat a coin, allowing you to eat them
When you eat a ghost, you increase your score
and it will respawn in its safe position
