Well pong might be a little harder but paacman cant be that hard now can it? just divide the screen into sections like a grid and use tile based stuff to create the world. Then use the RPG controls on a pacman but make it so he moves instead of the background. Use the HitTest object on the little dots you need to eat and the wall to make the character stop. I am gonna make a pacman just like that but with a little PHP twist 😃 I plan on making a customizable pacman game for use on the web where you create your world from a PHP page which saves info to an XML file that contains info about where walls are and what is in each square. When you load the pacman game, theres gonna be a LOAD XML option where you can load a custom map or if you load pacman.swf?[http://mysite.com/pacman\_levels.xml](http://mysite.com/pacman_levels.xml) it will load the XML file specified. You can use premade images or specify your own by the PHP page. If anyone wants to help PLEASE Email [cholin1990@hotmail.com](mailto:cholin1990@hotmail.com) or add me on MSN messenger. Peace…sorry to go on about my idea lol maybe wrong forum or sumthin…
