    does anyone notice how in the entire animation terminal never breaks human emotion "packman", for example here, 1:15 to 1:35, packman doesn't go and look at the noise, but just runs as fast as he can in the most human way possible. Even I react like this when I see or hear something unsettling like this, even for a second. Truely amazing.

    I love how each ghost’s appearance is a reference to their AI. Blinky is the first to leave the ghost house and is the most direct, Clyde just kinda does his own thing until he gets Pac-Man in his sights, Inky tries to get between Blinky and Pac-Man, and Pinky ambushes.

      I don't exactly think they expected people to study the AI, they kinda just expected people to just go to the arcade and play it? Besides, Clyde is kinda humorous, kinda the odd one out. Gives the game more character!

    • @innocenut
      @innocenut Před 11 měsíci +20

      Actually the ghosts' AI works by a target tile they need to reach. They also operate in phases: scatter, chase, scared and eaten. Scatter mode is normally called corner mode because all of the ghosts' target points are positioned at the corners, just outside of the maze, and because they can't turn around, this forces them to orbit the corners trying to reach the target. Then once the interval assigned by which level the player is on ends, they will immediately turn 180 degrees and their targets are positioned strategically around pac man. This normally causes them to form a single file line chasing pac man. If a power pellet is eaten, all ghosts turn blue, turn 180 degrees again, and enter scared phase. In scared phase, their movements are chosen by a random number generator. Once eaten, they turn into a blank set of eyes, speed up significantly, and their target is set inside of the ghost house. Once they enter, they turn back into whatever color they are, then begin all over again starting in whatever phase it would've been if pacman hadn't eaten a power pellet.

    • @halibabica
      @halibabica Před 11 měsíci +8

      @@aperson4097 Probably as a randomness factor. Since the other ghosts have specific AI, they can be manipulated by the player's choices. Clyde can't, so you have to hope he isn't wandering someplace you need to go.
      That would be my guess, but it seems inconsistent with what others have said here.

      -The player having a Hud that maps your location and a gun that slows down big monsters and kills smaller monsters
      - Adding monsters that changes up the gameplay like a creature that hides under the ceiling to ambushes you, forcing you to go around it and smaller monsters meant to slow you down or alarm the bigger monsters to your location
      -The power up making the big monsters being able to be killed by your gun or a bigger gun with limited ammo
      -Each level have there own unique layout and slowly introducing new gimmicks such as pits
