Man, it didn't occur to me that something as simple as limiting the player's FOV can make Pacman scary. The ghosts could jump out at you from behind any corner.
That, and the fact that the ghost behave kinda scary now
i think it's a really cool mechanic
What is an fov?
There's 1k
@Jarhead you foolish human! Giving an opinion on the internet is illegal!!!!

If you slow the video down, you can read the words that flash glitch onto the screen.
"Insert Soul"
Score glitches into "DREAD" towards the end
Level into ghost
And lives into death
The score number turns into sixes
and the pacman icons turn red
Honestly, only being able to see pellets and ghosts down where PacMan himself can see them is a pretty creative difficulty curve.
Yeah, I thought the same! There's a lot to make this game great, but this was a great jumping off point, design-wise
I also like how they removed parts of the maze walls. Feels like an improvement at first until you realize it's harder to find the pellets.
@@Robin-en4xs what parts were removed?
@@sud1881 the maze walls. Like the blue thing.
If NAMCO made a Pacman VR, that would be an awesome experience.
So Blindy can't see and runs all over the place aimlessly.
Screamy makes a B-line for you everytime he sees you.
Slendy will just teleport in front of you randomly.
And Old One phases through the walls but is slow due to his Parkinson's.
But the real question is who is Shadow Pac-Man? And do we want to know?
That's my Pacman OC that they fucking stole
Gunnar Eilers I’m sorry you mean my Pac-Man OC that you inappropriately used in your fan fiction, I’ll talk to my lawyer
@@LowLifeAM sorry but that was my OC that i didnt totally steal from so im calling mom

sorry bro its too late shes already coming to your room
I think that this game is probably the best example of .exe-type game. It's "glitched" in just the right proportion - no hyprerelistick blod!!!!, no "dead children spirits", only glitched sprites and music, something that looks like it COULD happen to a game and that's what makes it scary - realism. Also, the dead silence instead of some cheap jumpscares or Pac-Man exploding into bloody bits is a lot more scarier, however surprising it sounds for all young horror game developers. The FOV concept isn't new, but fits the game perfectly with it's one-wide corridors and enemies popping in and out. The enemies are fine and pretty creepy too, especially the red-train-of-spook-one, even though Slendy is a little bit too intrusive, IMO. Overall, that's what horror game makers, especially "haunted software"-like, should strive for - simple, but refined, realistic, but not hyper-realistic, thought-out and not "i want all the scary shit in my game and also it should have real life murder lore".
Signing off, your own little game journalist that, of course, haven't played the game himself.
Yeah, i hate those people that only makes a bloody eye sonic sprite, adds blood everywhere and BAM, sOnIc.ExE
I was just scrolling down to get a jumpscare list. I'm pleasantly surprised to see this awesome comment!
I know...jumpscares are by definition a cheap trick to build up the tension...
Lockheed honestly i think the jumpscare was pretty good. its not overused/overdone so you dont expect it and the game’s setting and atmosphere fits it well. this is a jumpscare done right
If the game can’t effect the player, it’s a shit Creepypasta.
I admire this game for being unlike most "haunted" ROMs, and not relying on screamers or creepy image flashes to scare the player.
It throws you right into this unsettling experience, and lets the anxiety come naturally. It doesn't try to force it, and because it's an actual game and not the product of some edgy 13-year-old's emo phase, it's easy to get immersed in this experience.
I like the "something's not quite right" approach to horror as opposed to the "OOH LOOK AT ME I'M SO SPOOKY AAAAAAAAHHHH THAT'S A SPOOKY SCREAM SOMETHING SOMETHING JUMPSCARE!!" approach. It feels less juvenile, and actually makes for great horror due to its closeness to real life. If something's messed up, no matter how bad it is, it never immediately jumps out at you. You have to search and uncover the horror yourself, and, even then, the answers aren't always easily found.
That's why these other "haunted" ROMs fail. They throw so much "spooky" shit at you, that you become numb to it, and end up not being as immersed as you need to be. All you're doing is waiting for the damn thing to end so you can get on with your day.
So, to conclude this lengthy comment, kudos to the game dev!! If I could hug you for making an actually decent haunted game for once, I would.
This ROM has a few auditory and visual jumpscares here and there, tho. The trick is to not overuse them.

The detail of the sound cutting out when Orange ghost is in view is just perfectly unnerving.
Yea
This whole game is perfectly unnerving. The music being nonexistent, just the noises of PAC-Man moving, the maze cubes distorting, when you die just being touched by the ghosts and returning to the start, Blindy and Screamy’s faces, the subtle idea that the ghosts are souls trapped in the game, or that the game is soul-consuming, it’s never too obvious, it’s never too visceral, it’s just...off...and scary.
That's clyde
genuinely also just good game design
clyde could appear at the end of a very long corridor and you wouldn't be looking until it's too late, but that detail helps alert you

The way that the map deteriorates as you progress is extremely cool. It leaves you to wander aimlessly and follow the lit paths in front of you ehile you're constantly on edge.
Its trying to recreating that feeling you get when its dark in your house and you cant find the light switch.

@@TreyDobe That would be the scariest shit I would've seen.
Honestly I'm more shook with this guy's skill than anything else. I can't even get this far in *regular* pac-man
Think some parts might be easier because in the original game, the ghosts would chase you around the map(well except the orange one who would go around randomly)
and have you seen this man play Eat Girl? fuckin godly reflexes man.

Blindy: Aimlessly wanders around the maze, hoping it runs into Pac-Man by random luck. Screamy: Also wanders around but will rush towards Pac-Man once he’s in sight, occasionally glitches into ’normal’ sprite. Slendy: Behavior is similar to Slender Man, randomly appears in front of Pac-Man, turn away from it to survive, will not appear when using power pellet. Old One: Will slowly follow Pac-Man through the map, ignores walls and cannot appear when power pellet is used. ???????: The map begins to disappear making it harder to find the pellets. RUN: Shadow version of Pac-Man, follows exact movements and gets faster, eventually reaching Pac-Man. Causes player to go into a first-person version where the game finally ends when it catches Pac-Man.
My favourite is blindy because Blindy just walks around aimlessly which makes him unpredictable
Haha, Blind
The game refers the 4th ghost as "Old O e", in a chance cuts of the leaderboard.

Whoever designed this game clearly has a VERY clear understanding of what makes something truly unnerving, even if it’s not all in your face. Everything down to the visuals, audio, and gameplay mechanics are genuinely freaky as hell and this guy or girl deserves insane amounts of praise
I love how you and the ghost just stare at each other when you’re caught like “uh... can you just... let me go?”
With the white ghost and the fact that you cannot see everything else besides your lane makes it really hard. Also that orange ghost tho, standing around like no one's business
The orange ghost could actually kill you if you stay long enough facing towards him without evwn getting close, every ghost has its own unique behaviours
The orange ghost is like sup man wanna play some video games
Orange ghost is like that one repetitive friend who invites you as soon as your online
Orange ghost: hey there you mind if i stand here? No good.
Pacman turns left
Ghost: i think i like this spot better.
Pacman turns left again and crashes into the ghost.
Ghost: ... you need to be more mindful of your surroundings.
whats this, a spooky game that isn't just hyper-realistic blood and scary images?
Realistic blood, scary images and jumpscares aren't 'true' horror, just a cheap way to trigger a natural reflex. REAL horror games can make you feel something is wrong, and unsettled, not just 'ah loud noise'

it's called Slendy here, i guess
What about the tendrils one that ignores walls?
@@Z95HeadHunter you mean Old One? it's kinda obvious that ghosts can go through the walls
My interpretation of the end.
Shadow Pac-Man is the game’s way of bringing new souls into the game. When shadow Pac-Man is chasing you, the points and lives on the left of the screen say RUN. Could this be the spirits communicating to the player to prevent you from having the same fate as them? When you get caught, the game glitches out and ghost sprites appear. I have always seen these (in this game) the lost souls showing themselves before your soul gets taken. Your soul then gets transferred into the game. And now you are a ghost, playing a game of infinite Pac-Man for all of eternity...
Props to the game dev for making this game.
Ghosts chase us so we lose and ragequit?
When ever you touch the big dots on level 6 he gets faster, so what happens if you beat level 6?
ChefUTG3 Shadow Pac-Man’s A.I only chases you after a certain amount of time has passed (he didn’t chase the player when he picked up the first big pellet) I’m guessing that lvl6 is unbeatable as Shadow Pac-Man knows where you are at all times. Your soul is pretty much forfeit when you reach that stage.
BlizzMRX what if you managed to edit the game’s code so he never chases you?
ChefUTG3 That is an interesting thought, I’m guessing evil soul-stealing ghouls can adapt. There’s no saying that the games code prevents the entity from interacting with it.
Very creative. I like how that when that one ghost appears it gets 100% silent. Like youre holding your breath after just seeing a ghost irl. I love it

The whole design of this game is artistically brilliant.
I kept forgetting it was a real game and not an animation
Dark Pac-Man copies your movements except that he gets faster, and in the last part what kills you is a yellow pacman so maybe what happens is you become dark Pac man and instead of yellow Pac-Man killing you it's actually you killing him.
Alejandro Gomez or that getting caught by Shadow Pac-Man turns you into a ghost inside the game, and the Pac-Man that the player killed at the end is another victim to a vicious cycle

To anyone afraid of jump scares:
(spoilers)
Unless you count the red ghost's "chasing" sound these are the only ones i'd count
8:16 Blue ghost fills screen with shrill sound
9:32 Shadow Pac-Man fills the screen with glitchy effects and could probably be considered a jump scare
9:49 the player getting "eaten" in the FPS section probably counts
my thoughts:
credit to the dev for actually making unique mechanics instead of just "IS SCARY, FLASHING SCARY IMAGES AND SHRILL NOISES"
kinda curious if it's possible to beat the Shadow Pac-Man level, probably not but worth thinking about

it could just be coded to speed up based on how much of the board is cleared with big pellets being big jumps in speed.
U mean power pellets
That's what they're called
To beat the level you have to leave the power pellets for last. Shadow Pacman doesn't get faster over time, he gets a big jump when you get a pellet and that jump stays. So while he's slow, build a lead, then go grab the pellets last.

I wish we had more EXE games instead of copy and pasted ones basically
There was a decent mario one that was made

I know this EXE actually isn't made but, Ness Godzilla is pretty good. (sorry for my bad english)

As a musician, I actually find the starting music to be very unsettling

Hi fellow GD player
Henlo fellow GD player
A first-person Pac-man game is instantly a good horror game
Silent Magician you should try out the pacman level in wolfenstein if you haven't already
Or Dark deception.
@@Ryan_C_GH Shoot you beat me to it! Yeah Dark Deception is a great Pac-Man-esque horror game
Play fps-man
nope, no is not I have seen a lot of Pac-man ''horror'' games in first person and believe me they are bad as heck I'm not saying that every Pac-man horror game in first person is bad but there's a lot that are bad
I love how subtle this game is. Most exe games are quite loud and "in your face", like the false jumpscares in a modern horror films. This game let's your anticipation and anxiety do the work, using it's quiet off-putting tone and constantly shifting/vanishing graphics.
8:17 ...
When you use inspect element and delete everything:
Names of the ghosts in this game:
Blue - Blindy
Red - Screamy
Orange - Slendy
Pink - Old One
PAC-Man...? - ???????
¿...naM-CAP (Shadow PAC) - RUN
When you try to find "run" hotkey
But there's no hotkey for running faster...
Blindy seems to act like a normal pacman ghost, just a bit more visually creepy.
Screamy seems to stay in one place for 2 ish seconds? than move for around 2 seconds.
Slendy seems to blink around sorta randomly.
The Old One seems to just chase you, ignoring walls.
Huh.
i just notice the first time the Old one in the level number but i dint see when that was the ghost in game
All the original ghosts behaved differently, with the red one actively following you, the blue one trying to avoid you, the pink one going in loops, trying to catch you off guard, with the orange one just wandering around.
Here, Blindy wanders around blindly (hence the name).
Screamy charges at you screaming (if he sees you).
Slendy teleports in front of you.
And The Old One does exactly as you said it does.
Shadow Pac-Man copies your moves, but very fast. I guess he’s just dragging out the player’s death, but perhaps if you go fast enough and smart enough you can win?
So cool! It gets crazy after about the 7th or 8th go, 6:48 around? Like an alternate dark reality takes over.
...I'm pretty sure you got to an alternate dimension from stage 1...
It shows the level you're on lol
@@Burn_Angel yeah you're right, dark reality from the start.
What I love about this game is that it's your typical "haunted by a ghost" game, but it's not in your face (Except for that last bit, lol). It doesn't have text telling how children have died, or displays large amounts of gore. It creates horror with clever mechanics and atmosphere. It shows and makes the player feel the fear, it doesn't tell you why you should be scared. You feel the claustrophobia, the fear of being lost and that your death might be lurking at the turn of the corner. You crave for one large pill to ease the anxiety allowing you to know what's around you, feel safe for a bit just to turn off the lights a few moments later.
Then in the end, you get caught by shadow Pacman, the game glitches and now you're a trapped soul in the game, you're more confused and disoriented than before, but because of the change of perspective the game now feels kinda more natural, because we it's a first perspective view we get all the information possible we could get from this point of view, in contrast to the bird eye view which should give us the most but is highly obscure, causing that feeling of unease.
In the end we see what we need to see, we're now part of the game trapped to repeat the cycle for the rest of eternity. It's as much of a typical ghost story as every other game, but one that's masterfully done.
I like that you're kinda pulled into the game as one of the ghosts in the end! Guess Pac-Man quite literally ate your soul :D
what if.. we kissed.. in the haunted pac-man game.. Haha just kidding...
..unless? 😳
bro kiss me bro
Oh...
That escalated quickly.
But nah lol 😂 but wait...

@Shon M. Oddshow Dark Deception btw
There are several 1st person Pac-Man games. The first one I've ever played is simply called FPS-Man. There's also one Markiplier played that I can't remember the name of, it's in one of his "3 scary games" videos. Then there's that Dark Deception everyone is talking about, but it isn't really pac-man related, just a similar type of game.
Scariest thing about this game?
The way how on level 6, if you read the number when i flashes, it reads "RUN"
time stamp?
alright got it. On level five sometimes on "lives" it flashed "death"
@@coolcake5560 it flashes like that on all levels. btw if you look on the level numbers, you'll see the new names of the ghosts.
Blindy, Screamy, Slendy, Old one.
And ???????.
I noticed Shadow Pac-Man gets faster after eating a power pellet
Honestly, I found orange’s sudden silence mechanic to be oddly relaxing. The immediate thing that reminded me of this is when rain starts to fall especially hard for a second and kind of drowns out everything else.
I remember reading the “hey this game exists” post on tumblr from the creator! I was never gonna play the game because I don’t handle playing spooky games well, but I’m super glad I got to see what this game was about!!
Lol i cant handle horror games too
If you look carefully stuff like Score and Lives are replaced by the word "Ghost"
edit: Level "4" sometimes replaces 4 with Old One. Level 5 replaces Lives with "Death".
edit2: almost at the end of Level 5, 5 is replaced with 999999
edit:4 Level 6 replaces 6 with "Run"
The level says ghost and the level number has the new ghost's name!
Funtime Foxy FNAFSL: * puts edit 4 after edit 2 *
basic math: *am i a joke to you?*
Level 2 is screamy level 1 is blindy and level 3 is slendy
@@thelifeofnothing6636 and level 4 is Old One.
Lives is always replaced with deaths

Get your vibe checked
So if you die to Shadow Pac-Man, you become one of the ghosts the next Pac-Man seeks out/avoids?
And you get eaten
I think it's more of a cycle - you die, then you become Shadow Pac-Man, and in order to liberate yourself, you have to kill the next Pac-Man
Robo wow i didn’t see this way. That’s explain my theory about ShadowPac. If you die you become a ghost, and to recover your life you must kill the other victim (other pac) to be free.
Other thing it’s ShadowPac, he hates the light, when you eat the Light-Pac-Dots he feels very mad. In 2019 nobody got complete the stage 6 without be captured?
but its making the dot eating sound as you move... ?

I like this kind of horror, it doesnt necesarily bring something on the lines of abstract surrealism but right on the lines of taking something familiar and well known and making act odd and out of place which adds to the sense of dread and anxiety. The semi distorted pacman theme in the start set the tone for the entire game and that anxiety never left or faded unless you really look deep into it and see the seams of the horror behind it which until that point loses the anxiety and dread aspect since you know what is going on already. Rather creative and it sort of similar to how Sonic.exe was when people started knowing about it back then though IMO the dread and discomfort of the atmosphere Sonic.exe had was short lived as it went too over the top too fast which instead made it more silly once you played it long enough. This though is a lot more creative and a lot more subtle which i like very much. The way the whole game screen curves as if its playing on a CRT monitor of the original pacman arcade cabinet is a nice touch
Thank you!
