Superhard Pacman
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
It's a simple concept - collect the coins and avoid the ghosts - but it's super hard! Try your hand at three levels and make sure to avoid the blue ghost!
Using the arrow keys, navigate your character through the room, collecting the coins. The red and pink ghosts are reasonably easy to avoid, but the blue ghost follows you! Contact with any of the ghosts means death.
This game's epic music is Arsenic1987's Pac-man theme remix! (Spotify) (YouTube) Check him out across the internet and a big thanks to him for the music!
High scores sync across versions of this game! I'm not sure exactly when the highscore files will be deleted from your app data storage (%localappdata% for Windows), so make sure to run a new version at least once while you still have the files for the older version if you want to keep your scores!
MAC USERS: Sorry, you can't run this game without a Windows VM or one of the Wine family pieces of software. WineBottler is an excellent way to run Windows applications on Mac, get it to play this game!

libcurl4 libopenall
Install packages by running the command sudo apt install <packagename> from the Terminal.
Known bugs:
- Hitboxes broken (Players collide with ghost from several pixels away, noticeable gap)
