DESCRIPTION:

This is my first solo game jam submission for the 2021 Global Game Jam.

The theme was "Lost and Found". I wanted to make a game that was about the exchange of power (i.e. losing and finding power). So I used bullying and revenge as my main themes. I thought that PacMan would be a good model for this because there is a very clear point in time where the enemies, who have total power over the player, become completely powerless and the whole dynamic of the game changes
