I've look everywhere and can't find good tutorials on 2D AI

I''m trying to make a Pac-Man clone on Win32 GDI(I know, I shouldn''t do that because Win GDI isn''t meant for game making and its slow and all of that, blah, blah, blah) and I''m wondering how....where do I start to create AI?

First of all, thing in natural language (aka "in your own words") what do you want the ghosts to do. Like
- If Mr.Pac has power up escape from him
Then try to solve the single problems. Shouldn''t be difficult. Any way if your question is "What should I read or try to find in the books and Inet?" I think the best you can do is to try with Finite State Machines...
Hope it helps.

There is nothing wrong with using the Windows GDI to write a game. I''ve written all kinds of stuff using GDI and it runs well.

Hey I''m making a Bomberman game using the GDI and I think it''s a great way of understanding the windows API better, which always helps. And I know it''ll work on any windows based machine, even slow ones with no hardware acceleration (any 2D stuff i did with OpenGL was impossibly slow on non-accelerated machines).
About your AI question go to aboutAI.net and scroll down a bit you''ll find Game AI. There read about the A* algorithm which is just what you need for your Pacman game.
