What would be cooler is making the dots emit as a light source. The horror element is that you can see the ghosts further away but every dot collected would make the maze darker and darker. Turns progressively from a creepy and foreboding horror to a darker jumpscare type; you need the dots to win but they also provide light.
That’s a neat idea
That's brilliant
Genius
another cool thing that could go along with this to make the map less useful would be to have only occasional updates on the ghost locations
@@Peter-898 opposite of genius

The weirdest thing I find about this is that turning the classic Pac-Man into a first person horror game is actually a genius idea and if done seriously, it could be an actually horrifying experience. Writing this I now also realize that something like that already exists in Dark Deception. But if I remember correctly none of the levels use the varied enemy AIs like Pac-Man so that could be fun. Also three ideas for the current version: 1. As mentioned by someone else in the comments (this isn't my idea, just collecting it here), making Clyde randomly use the sounds of the other ghosts would make him more menacing as he would be scaring the player into thinking there's something actually dangerous around. 2. Whenever the map is opened, it wouldn't actually show the ghosts but instead there would be a "blip" like a soundwave every second or so wherever the closest ghost is. Now the map would only tell the player the location of the closest ghost but not live, only every second or so, nor would it tell the player the direction or color of the ghost. 3. Whenever the player "dies", make the camera quickly but not instantly snap at the ghost, giving a final "jumpscare" if the player was running away or if the player didn't have a chance to see the ghost at all, for example if it came around the corner and the player didn't notice.
For some reason, it makes me think of 'Baldi's Basics'.
what music did the author use at 5:40
@@IamCoalfoot More like dark deception, is very much this but with monkeys
a cool idea for a ghost's sound would be to make them make a sound while they're chasing the player, but the sound stops when they get too close or if they stop chasing the player. This makes it so that the player doesn't know if they are safe or not, and would likely make it scarier
The fitness gram pacer test would legitimately be the most scary sound in a horror game
nah I think the three minutes of furry noises beats it

haven't watched the video yet, so I don't know if he already mentioned it but there's actually already a pacman-like horror game called dark deception. not a vr game but a decent horror game nonetheless
Check out It Steals if you liked it, it is legiimately a horror pac man game, i think you will like it
Yeah I think a way he could make is creepier would be if each of the ghosts had a similar sound with slight differences so that at first you have no idea which one is coming for you but eventually you’ll be able to tell them apart and get better and better

The final bit with Pac-man as the monster made me think of all the spaceship interpretations. Imagine if the dots were interpreted as ceiling lights and the maze gets progressively darker as he destroys them. The power dots being something like a power center or something and everything goes dark when he gets them.
That is the most high capasity tear thing i heard.
Isn't that exactly what terminal montage did?
@@destroyer4929 That's what I meant by "spaceship interpretations", couldn't figure out where I had seen it before. But still, he does it differently.

Dude I would love to see a second vid or even a playable version of this. This is funny-scary and I love it. Like how do these 2 totally different emotions collide, wtf, its great.
Clyde's pattern was made to work in a maze in 2D, psyching the player out by camping near Pac Man and potentially block his path. When put into a 3D Maze in first person, yeah it all falls apart.
Every Code Bullet video is equally chaotic, but it feels like he goes through ten stages of character development between each one.

I'm in my late 50's and I remember when Pac-Man originally came out. I also remember when Doom first came out. And I was playing both at their release. This has a bit more potential than what you actually realise mate. If you put more work into the graphics, sounds, and increased the fear, whilst taking the comedic element out, you'd have something that would be quite enjoyable to play. It would be very interesting to see what the gameplay would be like if it was developed without the VR, and instead for the desktop. Quake maybe? Good work btw.
The most terrifying part of all of this is that code bullet uses Norton Antivirus.

CB this video already taught me loads more about Pac-Man than I've ever known before. I didn't know the ghosts had individual names/personalities lol. I didn't know they actually do different things. I've never noticed that Blinky (red) always targets you directly. I've played a lot of Pac-Man arcade machines too. Just never realised all this! Mind-Blown.
The ghosts stopping and restarting their noises as the power dot wears off is a nice touch

Even though it's nowhere close to being done, I'd love to be able to play this as-is, even as a timewaster of sorts. Sadly I don't own a VR so I wouldn't be able to play it anyway. Here's some ideas that might inspire further development if you ever plan on continuing working on this game: the map should probably let you walk still, but instead of showing the ghosts location, it could show the ghosts last known location (based on proximity/sounds maybe?) or probably just make the location update every 15/30 seconds or so, so you *know* they're approaching (and likely guess if they are hunting/scattering) but you don't know their exact location. Amazing video as always CB!
Fun Fact: The "ghosts" in Pac Man werent originally intended to be ghosts, however due to some translation errors on the english version of the game people began calling them ghosts. They were originally supposed to be some kind of monster with some kind of cover hiding their true face, similar to the sheet ghosts that kids used to dress up as for Halloween
Also, the Atari version of Pac Man, where the machine wasn't powerful enough to have all ghosts on the same frame, didn't help.
That could be a cool horror mechanic if you think about it.. 🤔
That sounds needlessly complicated
I love how CB went from [entertainment-educational AI application] to just [goofing in unity with VR]. Absolutely based. At least someone i follow shares enjoyment (in between suffering) in developing in Unity.
I Like that you use these little [square brackets] in casual conversation
It'd be dope to see an alternative VR mechanic in which movement was controlled with teleports to the dots. The player might strategically leave gaps or try to jump long distances. Could make for some very tense gameplay!
I absolutely love what this channel has evolved into, this is a golden era that is heading for platinum.
14:12 - "I really hate developing in VR, it's so annoying" - Pro tip, many developers find it more convenient to develop games using a 2D monitor and typing code on a normal keyboard, and only use the VR when playing the game. I hope this helps.

11:42 Why does this feel like something you'd see in an actual nightmare?
I think not being able to outrun the ghosts makes it a way scarier horror game, just knowing they're slowing gaining on you.
unfortunately since you will likely not make optimal turns they would gain on your and win very easily, you need to at least have the chance of winning.
@@Lorkanthal true, but you could always have the AI compensate by slowing down for turns at the exact same rate as the player, thus taking that part out, while keeping the horror of the ever-gaining monster in it.
It also makes the power dots quite useless. They still can save you from being caged in, yes, but that's about it, you can't gain extra time for eating by eating ghosts. It's not really a horror when the ending is inevitable. It's when you get your fighting chance ruined by running into one by accident or a small mistake.
@@PaulDixon25 how would you calculate how long the player takes to make turns and apply that to the ghosts? youd be able to cheese it by sitting at an intersection without moving.
Add a sprint meter and let the player use their skill to sprint away when the time is right. Done.
I point people to your videos when they ask me why software development is stressful and frustrating. You really capture it in a core way that I can't explain in words alone. I can't stop laughing and/or crying when you fall through the wall for the 15th time, after declaring the wall collision working perfectly.

There was a first person pacman horror unity game like 10 years ago
I played pacman at a VR exhibition about 7 years ago with a 360 treadmill, that was a true unexpected horror
Honestly, being able to jump up onto the walls would be a good idea if the game had stealth elements. Like maybe jumping up out of the trench alerts all the ghosts to your location and they turn aggressive and chase you until you ditch them: so jumping up on to the walls is basically either just a desperation tactic when cornered, or a risk/reward thing to speed up your run.
