Capman

Moby ID: 95987

Description

Capman is a Pac-Man variant with a twist, as the dot-munching hero now can pick up weaponry and explosives to blow away his foes (who in this game are called "bugs"). Instead of dying instantly, the protagonist has a supply of health which is depleted by close encounters with enemies. As the player roams the mazes, trying to eat every single dot, power-ups keep spawning in predefined places. These include weapons (pistol, shotgun, chaingun), secondary items (bouncy bullets, speed boost, landmines, bombs and dynamite that can be planted to blow up enemies) and medikits that refill health. Only one weapon and only one secondary item may be held at a time. Most inconveniently, the weapons can also be picked up by enemies, and to make things worse, some levels include pre-placed landmines which can blow up player and enemy alike.

A level editor is included with the game.
