    INTRODUCTION TO PAC JAZZ: This game (seperate application) seems to be a variant of Pacman where you control Jazz’s head (the author has this strange fixation with Jazz’s head) instead of Pacman.

    GRAPHICS/ETC: Hmmm. The walls look normal enough, though probably a little too bright. The pellets which normally turn ghosts blue look awful. Pacman has been replaced with Jazz’s head, who only has one frame of animation (this looks really strange when he dies), and the ghosts are replaced with the worst rips I’ve ever seen of Normal Turtles. (If you eat one of those power pellet things, they get nigh-invisible dark red letters above their heads). The whole graphics set looks extremely ripped and has that “I need to make this Jazz like I’ll spent two minutes rippiung things!” feel.
    Pros: Jazz’s head actually didn’t turn out too badly.
    Cons: The walls are too bright, the power pellet is ugly, the normal turtles are horrible.
    Rating: 4.0

    GAMEPLAY: Everyone knows how to play Pacman. You move around through a maze eating little yellow dots, avoid the ghosts, and eat special things which let you eat the ghosts. All of this is here. The main problems are… bugs.
    One, you can turn around and crash into a wall. This is really annoying if you were hoping it would just turn as soon as you get to the intersection. Also, the ghosts have apparently no artificial intelligence at all, seeming to move randomly whenever they reach an intersection. Being scared does not seem to effect their behavior at all. And you appear to have infinite lives…
    Pros: It’s recognizable as Pacman.
    Cons: Too many flaws, not even the right layout.
    Rating: 4.7

    ORIGINALITY: Nothing is original in this except for converting it to Jazz (though I remember hearing something about Pacspaz from ET..). I recommend you go download a game called “Pacman Worlds”. It might inspire you somewhat.
    Rating: 2.0

    OVERALL: This is a rather poor Pacman takeoff – I hestitate to call it a clone – with strangely ripped graphics and poor gameplay. There is honestly not all that much else to say about this. You are still advised not to download this file. (This time it’s only 1,345 KB, though!)
    Rating: 2.5

    ERRATA: Apparently this entire game is an edit of some already made program. This lowers the rating by .5 (And I haven’t calculated it yet).

    This game is a version of pac man using Jazzes head and what apears to be badly resized turtle sprites taken from shudder www.jazzjackrabbit.com or the manual. He did not program this he stole someone elses hard programing work and didn’t even creddit them. Not looking good so far. The code he stole was only an example of a PacMan type game. Its well codded but since its not your codding your not getting any points. I really don’t want to rate this as he stole everything and didn’t give credit. So I’m afraid I can not rate this higher than a 1 sorry but I can’t. I can not rate this game for anything because its all stolen.

    wadledee It is not original for two reasons, 1.Its just pacman 2.He didn’t program this.[This review has been edited by Sun Fun Dude]

    Oh my … this is very bad, I mean VERY bad!
    It’s original, that save’s this from a 2.5!
    You can’t see when the turtles are to be destroyed, or that they destroy you!
    Not like the original PacMan, you can walk to the wall, but in PacMan, he will walk only when there is a way to left,right,up or down! It was funny to make PacJazz, but it’s full of BUGS!

    Download Recommed:No…Not now!
    Play It:If your a dummy!

    a 4 from me…

    This is a modification of the Pac Man example that came with Game Maker 4. Be sure to state that in “other authors” or the description area.

    (Unsupported rating removal. What makes this file funny? What is good? What is bad? How can you possibly say this is worth an 8? ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]
