3. ഓപ്പറേറ്റിംഗ് (ഗെയിംപ്ലേ)
Pac-Mania retains the core gameplay of the original Pac-Man while introducing new elements. Your objective is to clear each maze of all pellets while avoiding the four ghosts: Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde.
നിയന്ത്രണങ്ങൾ
- ദിശാസൂചന പാഡ് (ഡി-പാഡ്): Move Pac-Man up, down, left, and right through the maze.
- A, B, or C Button: Press any of these buttons to make Pac-Man jump. Jumping allows Pac-Man to clear small obstacles or leap over ghosts, providing a strategic advantage.
- ആരംഭ ബട്ടൺ: Pause the game during play or begin a new game from the title screen.
Gameplay Elements
- Pellets: Small dots scattered throughout the maze. Eat all of them to complete a level.
- Power Pellets: Larger, flashing pellets. Eating one turns the ghosts blue for a short period, making them vulnerable. During this time, Pac-Man can eat the ghosts for bonus points. Eaten ghosts return to their home base and regenerate.
- ബോണസ് ഇനങ്ങൾ: Various items (e.g., fruit, keys) appear periodically in the maze. Eating these grants additional points.
- Ghosts: Blinky (red), Pinky (pink), Inky (cyan), and Clyde (orange). Each ghost has a distinct personality and movement pattern. Avoid them when they are not blue.
- Jump Feature: A new mechanic in Pac-Mania. Use the jump button to evade ghosts or navigate tricky maze sections. Timing is crucial.
സ്കോറിംഗ്
Points are awarded for eating pellets, power pellets, bonus items, and especially for eating ghosts after consuming a power pellet. The score increases with each ghost eaten during a single power pellet's effect.
