The Pac-Man ghosts

A sibling set for 4 agents. The four ghosts of the 1980 arcade game Pac-Man, each programmed with a distinct, documented AI targeting behavior. Four agents shipped in 1980 with four different pursuit strategies: direct, ahead, ambush, and whatever Clyde is doing. Clyde wanders off, which parents of a fourth subagent will recognize.

  1. 1Blinky'Shadow' - always chases Pac-Man directly
  2. 2Pinky'Speedy' - targets ahead of Pac-Man to cut him off
  3. 3Inky'Bashful' - uses a complex ambush strategy combined with Pinky
  4. 4Clyde'Pokey' - alternates between chasing and fleeing based on distance
