My first game in VB.net
Author
http://www.virtuich.net/~frisk/Pacman.zip <- Here It's my first game in GDI+.
While making this game i realized how freaking weak and bad GDI+. It's so freaking slow that It's unbelieveable. I loaded every image in the memory optimized the painting methods as much as i could. Still it takes 10ms to update a 600x500 window.
Well, Download and try!. I would love some feedback
Yeah thats really nice - very similar to the original with improvements such as speed increase etc.
There is an exception if the window is closed by alt + F4, which is the easiest way.
It would be nice to have more animation ( enemies face etc) and possibly make the AI more challenging (cut you off etc) but apart from that, very very nice.
Well done

EDIT: Nevermind my error comment...it might help if I test on a system that has .NET installed ;) lol...
I'm trying to play but I keep getting this error after I click play on the splash screen... I have reinstalled DX but still no luck...

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

If the game doesnt work it's probely cause u dont have .NET framwork, read the README! =). About the AI, my friends thinks it's way to hard and i think the surround you quite good, dunno how u feel about this?
EDIT: About the directsound problem, I fixed it know i forgot to put the reference in the game but if u redownload it they will be there. Sorry for that every1

Hmm, to be honest when playing the original pacman, the AI frequently stopped following you and blocked you off instead.
This may be slightly hard to implement, but it would be worth it.
It would be better even if you put less power dots in.
It's great as it is, the AI thing is really nit picking - if you want we can discuss it further on MSN?
