Pacman-
Pacman was the second game i created on gamemaker with the help of the game maker, step by step book. It was fairly easy to follow along the way, however, i ran into a few issues as when you would fail/lose the game the game would completely crash meaning you would have to reset the whole game to play another round. Sometimes, it would completely crash gamemaker and would not let you click off the gamemaker program meaning you'd have to sign out of the computer and log back in which would take a while just to play another game of Pacman. In my opinion, it was more different but easier to find issues glitches than the Breakout game.I later fixed the issues i had at hand, by deleting the controls for Pacman and the ghosts and redoing the actions and it fixed the issue. Unlike the Breakout game i decided to change the background of Pacman as i didn't like the grey background, therefore, i made a dark grunge background that looked fantastic in game. In all honesty i had ideas for re skinning Pacman yet none of them stuck as not one of them looked ideal for a pacman.
Above shows the dark grunge background that i included in my pacman game to replace the dull, grey background that was default for all the gamemaker games. As seen, its quite fitting for this particular game as in the other pacman games the background always seemed to be a black colour and the mixture between the black and dark grey makes it look more professional.. Also above you can seem the comparison between my pacman background i had created to the original pacman background.
