![]() ![]() ![]() Pac-Man was a widespread critical and commercial success, leading to several sequels, merchandise, and two television series, as well as a hit single by Buckner & Garcia. The original Japanese title of Puck Man was derived from the Japanese phrase "Paku paku taberu" which refers to gobbling something up the title was changed for the North American release to mitigate vandalism. The in-game characters were made to be cute and colorful to appeal to younger players. Although the inspiration for the Pac-Man character was the image of a pizza with a slice removed, Iwatani has said he also rounded out the Japanese character for mouth, kuchi ( Japanese: 口). Iwatani wanted to create a game that could appeal to women as well as men, because most video games of the time had themes of war or sports. Game development began in early 1979, directed by Toru Iwatani with a nine-man team. Eating large flashing dots called "Power Pellets" causes the ghosts to temporarily turn blue, allowing Pac-Man to eat them for bonus points. The player controls Pac-Man, who must eat all the dots inside an enclosed maze while avoiding four colored ghosts. In North America, the game was released by Midway Manufacturing as part of its licensing agreement with Namco America. Pac-Man, originally called Puck Man in Japan, is a 1980 maze action video game developed and released by Namco for arcades.

While I don’t play Minecraft myself, I have to admit that I would be lying if I said HyruleCraft didn’t excite me. In addition to the already released 1:1 reproduction of Hyrule and the original NES Zelda Dungeons, we can expect to see some PVP areas, some zones outside of the original Ocarina of Time game, and some maps inspired by A Link to the Past that are still being planned. Although it’s not available for download yet, its nice to have a glimpse at what is to be expected. In just four days, Kevin was able to completely build all the classic dungeons on their HyruleCraft server. ![]() For a closer look, be sure to make the jump inside for the video showing off all the dungeons and more details on the project. ![]()
