For me, that meant summer trips through Poland’s coastal cities with their seasonal arcade parlors; peeking inside cabinets to learn 0️⃣ programming and engineering secrets; and—of course—free games!
One of my favorites was PAC-MAN, whose popularity transcended the geopolitical barriers of that 0️⃣ time. During the heyday of space shooters, Tōru Iwatani’s creation stood out as one of the first video games aimed 0️⃣ at a broader audience, with a cute story of pizza-shaped character gobbling dots in a maze, colorful (literally!) characters, friendly 0️⃣ design, very little violence and everlasting fun.
Today, on PAC-MAN’s 30th birthday, you can rediscover some of your 8-bit memories—or meet 0️⃣ PAC-MAN for the first time—through our first-ever playable Google doodle. To play the game, go to google during the next 0️⃣ 48 hours (because it’s too cool to keep for just one day) and either press the “Insert Coin” button or 0️⃣ just wait for a few seconds.
Google doodler Ryan Germick and I made sure to include PAC-MAN’s original game logic, graphics 0️⃣ and sounds, bring back ghosts’ individual personalities, and even recreate original bugs from this 1980’s masterpiece. We also added a 0️⃣ little easter egg: if you throw in another coin, Ms. PAC-MAN joins the party and you can play together with 0️⃣ someone else (PAC-MAN is controlled with arrow keys or by clicking on the maze, Ms. PAC-MAN using the WASD keys).
PAC-MAN 0️⃣ seems like a natural fit for the Google homepage. They’re both deceptively straightforward, carefully hiding their complexity under the hood. 0️⃣ There’s a light-hearted, human touch to both of them. And we can only hope you find using Google at least 0️⃣ a quarter as enjoyable as eating dots and chasing ghosts. You know, without actually needing any quarters.
