Download
Install instructions
Unzip PacMan-linux.zip, open the PacMan folder and run PacMan.
No installation and no Python needed, everything is inside the folder.
On Linux, if a double click does nothing, make the file executable first:
chmod +x PacMan
The game reads data/config.json next to the executable: lives, seed,
number of pacgums, points, time per level, and the size of each of the
ten mazes. Edit it with any text editor, then restart the game.
Highscores are saved in highscores.json, next to the executable.
Controls: arrows or WASD to move, ESC to pause, ENTER/SPACE to validate.
