Comment on GDC Tales: Pac-Man, the paper prototype by fsouki

@Ciro

Let me elaborate further

We were asked to strip the game to its very base and so we found that what was worth recreating from Pac-Man was the feeling of being chased and getting trapped, along with the possibility of reversal. The actual game uses spatial navigation to convey this feeling, but we really wanted to find a simpler way to recreate the same situation without having to recur to utilizing a similar 2D space, which is what a board game would have led us to. This is why we chose to search for an appropriate metaphor.

We were provided materials to work with, including chips, cards and dice, but we were free to use whatever element we wanted. Just one thing: the simpler, the better!
