Quote of the Day

“Well, there’s not much entertainment in a game of eating, so we decided to create enemies to inject a little excitement and tension. The player had to fight the enemies to get the food. And each of the enemies has its own character. The enemies are four little ghost-shaped monsters, each of them a different colour - blue, yellow, pink and red. I used four different colours mostly to please the women who play - I thought they would like the pretty colours.”
- Toru Iwatani, Pac-Man creator

This, and more, at a new blog called Game Internals, who open with a post describing how the ghosts work. (h/t BoingBoing)
