The Other Side of the Pixel

Ok, this is another thing Imma thinking of doing a series type thing about.
It's basically a different or more in depth look at some games and series.

First up, Pacman!

Pacman was the first horror game.

An Asian man just bought a new home for his wife and himself and goes in to renovate a bit while his wife is off doing something else. After he enters the home the door shuts behind him locking him in. Shortly after four ghosts appear and start haunting him. The ghosts chase him and he runs. He finds himself in a narrow corridor and runs through it, only to discover a secret passage through to the other side of the house. He then discovers tiny fragments of a magical talisman that seems to weaken the ghosts. He collects them and occasionally finds a weapon to temporary guard him from the spirits while he collects the pieces. With every part he puts together the house gets a bit weaker and wants to destroy him faster, changing the shape of the walls and floors to throw him off his feet and make it easier for the ghosts to kill him.
After many hours of collecting talisman pieces he is almost done. He is collecting the last few and desperate, the house launches one last attack, it partially distorts time and space around itself to freeze everything in it's place so Pacman cant finish the talisman and the house is safe once again.

After coming back from whatever she was doing the wife rushes into the house only to find her husband is missing. She too, runs into the ghosts and discovers talisman pieces. She goes on a mission to rescue her husband,

but that's another game.


Next up for this series (if I feel like it) Either Kirby or Sonic...

This was really good, did you make this yourself? If so I'm impressed.

...Lack of tone on internet makes detecting sarcasm hard...

but yeah, I wrote it myself, I go the inspiration from that fake Pacman movie trailer on youtube and kinda expanded on it in my own way.

Good title :).

For future reference, you might want to try breaking up your stories into several smaller paragraphs. For some reason, large paragraphs are hard to read on the internet, even if they aren't in print.

I had the idea to write about sonic in a similar way for a while. I might still ref my idea in my Sunday post that I've planned, but I'll link you if you choose sonic.

I too enjoyed this. I will eagerly look forward to the next.

Also, this Pac-Man story takes on a whole knew feel when you think of Pac-Man Jr.
