Pacman
In this part of the Java 2D games tutorial we will create a simple Pacman game clone.Pacman is an arcade game originally developed by a Japanese company Namco in 1980. Pacman became one of the most popular arcade games ever.
Development
The following code example is a remake of a Pacman game by Brian Postma available at javaboutique. I have modified and simplified the code. So that it is easier to understand.The goal of the game is to collect all the points in the maze and avoid the ghosts. The pacman is animated in two ways. His position in the maze and his body. We animate his body with four images, depending on the direction. The animation is used to create the illusion of pacman opening and closing his mouth. The maze consists of 15 x 15 squares. The structure of the maze is based on a simple array of integers. Pacman has three lives. We also count the score.
The game consists of two files.

final short leveldata[] =These numbers make up the maze. They provide information out of which we create the corners and the points. For example number 19 in the upper left corner means, that the square will have top and left borders and a point. (16 + 2 + 1)
{ 19, 26, 26, 26, 18, ... };
public void doAnim() {

pacanimdir = -pacanimdir;
}
}
The doAnim() counts the pacmananimpos variable, which determines what pacman image is drawn. There are four pacman images. There is also a pacanimdelay variable, which makes the animation a bit slower. Otherwise the pacman would open his mouth too fast. boolean finished = true;This code is part of the checkMaze() method. It checks, if there are any points left for the Pacman to eat. Number 16 stands for a point. If all points are consumed, we move to the next level.
while (i < nrofblocks * nrofblocks && finished) {
if ((screendata[i] & 16) != 0)
finished = false;
i++;
}
Next we will examine the moveGhosts() method. The ghosts move one square and then decide, if they change the direction.
if (ghostx[i] % blocksize == 0 && ghosty[i] % blocksize == 0) {
Continue only if you have finished moving one square. pos = ghostx[i] / blocksize + nrofblocks * (int)(ghosty[i] / blocksize);This line determines, where the ghost is situated. In which position/square. There are 225 theoretical positions. (A ghost cannot move over walls. )
if ((screendata[pos] & 1) == 0 && ghostdx[i] != 1) {
dx[count] = -1;
dy[count] = 0;
count++;
}
If there is no obstacle on the left and the ghost is not already moving to the right, the ghost will move to the left. What does this code really mean? If the ghost enters a tunnel, he will continue in the same direction until he is out of the tunnel. Moving of ghosts is partly random. We do not apply this randomness inside long tunnels. The ghost might get stuck there. if (pacmanx > (ghostx[i] - 12) && pacmanx < (ghostx[i] + 12) &&If there is a collision between ghosts and a pacman, the pacman dies.
pacmany > (ghosty[i] - 12) && pacmany < (ghosty[i] + 12) &&
ingame) {
dying = true;
deathcounter = 64;
}
Next we are going to examine the movePacman() method. The reqdx and reqdy variables are determined in the TAdapter inner class. These variables are controlled with cursor keys.
if ((ch & 16) != 0) {
screendata[pos] = (short)(ch & 15);
score++;
}
If the pacman moves to a position, where there is a point, we remove it from the maze and increase the score value. if ((pacmandx == -1 && pacmandy == 0 && (ch & 1) != 0) ||If the pacman cannot move further it his current direction, there is a standstill.
(pacmandx == 1 && pacmandy == 0 && (ch & 4) != 0) ||
(pacmandx == 0 && pacmandy == -1 && (ch & 2) != 0) ||
(pacmandx == 0 && pacmandy == 1 && (ch & 8) != 0)) {
pacmandx = 0;
pacmandy = 0;

There are four possible directions for a pacman. There are four images for all directions. The images are used to animate pacman opening a closing his mouth. The drawMaze() method draws the maze out of the numbers in the screendata array. Number 1 is a left border, 2 is a top border, 4 is a right border, 8 is a bottom border and 16 is a point. We simply go through all 225 squares int the maze. For example we have 9 in the screendata array. We have the first bit (1) and the fourth bit (8) set. So we draw a bottom and a left border on this particular square.
if ((screendata[i] & 1) != 0) // draws leftDraw a left border if the first bit of a number is set.
