Pacman - 1.1

A scrolling version of Pac-Man with multiple mazes, bouncing fruit, and intelligent ghosts.

This is the first large-scale game I've done with python, and Pac-Man was an appropriate candidate as one of my all-time favorites. Mazes (w/ colors) are read from external text files, which are designed to be easily edited (with the Maze Editor), fruit bounces in and out of the passageways, and the ghosts use a variation of the A* pathfinding algorithm to chase pac-man and find their way back to the ghost box. The game is meant to be easily expandable or modifiable. I hope you enjoy it! Feel free to poke around the source (hopefully it's readable enough).

Hi there.... two things.... Your website has a red rating at McAfee site advisor. I advise you get something done about that as this can really scare people away, as a matter of fact I get a mega-warning on my screen when I click the link.
Second, I can't get your game to run on MacOS X. I have Python 2.7 installed and I get the next error: "/usr/bin/python: can't find '__main__' module in 'pacman'" I get the same error when I try pacman-large.
The screenshots are really promising, so it's truly a pity that I can't get this to work.
