PacMan clone(more like replica) written in VB with Windows API and GDI calls. Camera movement allows mazes bigger that the window. I'm still working on a maze editor and there are only two mazes as of yet. If anyone wants to help me with this (make a maze editor or add mazes) I'll be glad if you send me your contribution. **BUG FIX**
I fixed a bug where memory was leaking after resizing the window :)
NEW UPDATE tunnels!
