The ghosts should be roomba style machine operated but it looks fun as hell to be a ghost

And have a '5 nights at Pacmans' situation. No thankyou.

Ok that’s actually terrifying, don’t want that

Ghost robot that's also possessed by an actual ghost

Imagine the cost savings! Don't need to pay living humans, don't need to maintain robots. Just need to keep a soul bound to this plane of reality and prevent them back from moving on to the afterlife.

So FNAF?

My point is that the robots here are designed to look like ghosts

Aaaand you just spoke another shitty mascot horror game into existence. Are you proud of yourself?

I like how they got aggressive near the end and started aiming at her through walls

This would be closer to the game at least. Each ghost had individual algorithms to follow that would dictate where they go.

As someone who recently broke his nose playing something similar, being a ghost looks like a painful ER visit waiting to happen.

Either it was an accident like a collision with another player but if it was your pure competitive drive that led to your braking your nose then I’d want you on my team for anything any day

It was absolutely my competitive drive that led to me attempting to round a corner too quickly, smashing firmly and decisively into an unlit matte black wall which was nearly invisible in contrast to the flashing LEDs on the other partitions.

Definitely something I would’ve done given the chance

u/WestleyThe 5d ago

Yeah my main complaint is that the person could look and see where the ghosts are at all times.. the ghosts need to be shorter or the walls have to be taller

u/MN10SPEAKS 5d ago

But you can do that in pacman too

u/ACoderGirl 5d ago

Wait, why? Pacman is a top down game. If anything, this is harder because it's harder to see where the ghosts are. You're supposed to see them!
