Today PacMan 30th birthday

A very happy birthday to PacMan… the friendly yellow gobbler. I love PacMan. Today –to commemorate the 30th birthday of PacMan– Google put a playable PacMan logo/game online. Sooo cool…. You can play it on the google website. Here’s a screenshot. When you leave PacMan in the shown position the ghost will never catch him… small bug?
I already mentioned the upcoming birthday of PacMan before. Click on the screenshot below to play Google PacMan.

    Very cool.
    And non-flash!
    Also did you see the “I’m feeling lucky button” had changed to “Insert coin”?

    BTW I did get caught in the mentioned position.

    Did you get caught after eating some dots in the maze before ending up in that position or was it exactly like the screenshot shows?
    Maybe there is a little randomization on startup?
    Update: Trying it again as shown in the screenshot.. still alive after minutes of playing… ghosts always take the same (useless) paths.
