Pac-Man Game with Ghost AI

Warning: The project is still not complete(runs partially).

Description

This project is an ongoing development of a Pac-Man game, created using C and SDL. The goal is to implement a fully functional version of the classic Pac-Man game, featuring a playable character (Pac-Man) and AI-controlled ghosts. Currently, the ghost utilizes Dijkstra's Algorithm to navigate the maze and attempt to find the optimal path to Pac-Man.

Features

• Pac-Man Movement: Control Pac-Man using keyboard inputs.
• Ghost AI: The ghost uses Dijkstra's Algorithm to navigate the maze and chase Pac-Man.
• Maze Layout: A grid-based maze where walls are represented, and paths are clear for movement.
• Basic Rendering: Graphics are rendered using the SDL library(in C).

Technologies Used

• C: Programming language used for game logic and structure.
• SDL: A cross-platform library for multimedia and graphics.
• Makefile: Used for building the project and managing compilation.
