Can you name the characteristics of all eight of these classic video game enemies?
>>
>>329880290
falls off ledges, doesn't fall off ledges, makes yoshi fly, turns into invincible spinning thing
pac man is for gays
>>
Pink ghost is the chick.
Red ghost is the leader and the fastest.
Green ghost is forgettable.
Orange ghost is slightly mentally retarded.
>>
Falls, avoids ledges, gives yoshi powers, turns into heat seeking shit

Tracks Pacman tries to cut him off, charges straight at him a little faster than the rest, avoids pacman?, wanders aimlessly
>>
Green koopa is spat out as a shell
Red koopa is spat out as fireballs
Blue koopa lets you fly
Yellow koopa lets you stomp and is shit
Ghosts are kill

>Can you name the characteristics of all eight of these classic video game enemies?

I've never been good at remembering what the ghosts do in relation to who they are. I know one's faster than others and - I think - chases after Pac-Man, one tends to move away from Pac-Man, one tries to anticipate Pac-Man and cut him off, and the last one just wanders wherever the fuck he feels like it.
>>
>>329880290
Inky (red) always guns right after Pac.

Pinky and Blinky (pink and blue) keep a certain distance around Pac, but don't directly go after him.

Clyde (orange) is supposed to be fucking stupid and just goes wherever his dumb goddamn ghost heart desires, but apparently he's smarter than that in practice. I don't know what he actually does.
>>
>>329880290
Green - will continue walking unless bounced

Red - will reverse direction when reaching an edge

Yellow - no clue

Blue - was playing Mario World on 3DS and didn't know he could kick shells back at me. That was amazing. I used to think hw just gave Yoshi wings

Pink - works with red to flank you

Red - chases you, follows red

Blue - chases when it can flank you with red

Orange - wanders until it can flank you with other 3

>>329880290
Green koopa falls off ledges
Red koopa stays on ledge
Blue koopa is fast and stays on ledges, shell-less ones can kick shells
Yellow koopa is fast, falls of ledges, shell-less ones can create the homing flashing shells

Pinky tries to get to a space in front of pac-man
Blinky tries to chase pac-man
Inky's position is in front of blinky's (not sure on this one)
Clyde wanders randomly
>>
>>329880290
Green Koopa = Walks forwards and falls off ledges
Red Koopa = Walks forwards but reverses direction upon reaching a ledge edge.
Blue Koopa = No different from Red Koopas except they walk faster.
Yellow Koopa = When a Koopa enters a yellow shell it flashes and homes in on Mario

Pinky = Tries to put himself in front of Pac-Man
Blinky = Follows Pac-Man
Inky = Switches from chasing and being passive. PRetty random faggot
Clyde = Literal dumbass

HOL' UP
*SMACKS LIPS*

>Green koopa
Will fall off ledges. Can hop into any shell. Green yoshi eating the shell will spit it out normally.
>Red koopa
Won't fall off ledges. Green yoshi eating the shell will spit out fireballs.
>Blue koopa
Can be pushed off ledges by catching shells. Will kick shells back at you, and can stop shells midflight and kick them back at you. Will never, ever hop into shells on their own. Green yoshi eating the shell will be able to fly until it either swallows the shell, or spits it out.
>Yellow koopa
Spawns a coin when knocked out of a shell. If it gets into its shell again, it will go disco-mode, becoming an invincible shell that can be ridden, unless spin jumped on. The shell, when eaten by green yoshi, will create farts when yoshi lands on the ground.

>Inky
>Pinky
Follow Pac-man
>Blinky
Runs away from Pac-man
>Clyde
LE RANDOM XD
>>
>>329880290
Normal, walks off ledges
Fire, turns around at ledges.
Makes Yoshi fly, highly aggressive and will kick shell back at you.
Makes Yoshi stomp hard, can make his Shell a RAINBOW of pain if you don't Spin Jump it to death or have Yoshi eat it for ALL POWERS.

Intersects, chases at higher speed, goes out of Pac-Man's supposed path, fucks around.

Green Koopa Troopa leads
Blue Koopa Troopa does machines
Red Koopa Troopa is cool, but crude
Yellow Koopa Troopa is a party dude

Blinky: he's super strong and super naked
Pinky: she flies like thunder
Inky: a former Navy commando with an attitude as bad as his odor
Clyde: with the power to melt

>Green Koopa
Falls off ledges.
>Red Koopa
Doesn't fall of ledges. When thrown up by Yoshi, turns into 3 fireballs.
>Blue Koopa
Doesn't fall of ledges. Gives Yoshi wings.
>Yellow Koopa
Doesn't fall of ledges. Allows Yoshi to stomp. Also, if the little mini Koopa gets knocked out and jumps back in, it becomes a rainbow shell.

>Blinky (Red)
Chases Pac-Man from the behind.
>Pinky (Pink)
Tries to jump in front of Pac-Man.
>Inky (Blue)
His pattern is random.
>Clyde (Orange)
Whenever he gets too close to Pac-Man, he runs to the bottom left corner of the screen.
>>
walks off edges
doesn't walk off edges
catches and kicks shells
homing shell

chases point in front of pac-man
chases pac-man, very slightly increases in speed, and after some time will permanently track pac-man unlike the other ghosts
chases point at end of vector drawn starting from red ghosts's position through midpoint slightly in front of pac-man
chases pac-man until he gets somewhat close to him, then tries to go to the bottom left corner until he gets away from him

>all ghosts

>bonus Yoshi shell effects
nothing
spit fire
wings
ground pound sort of thing when you land from a jump
>>
Super Mario world is much more creative than anything after it (besides 64 maybe...).

blinky takes the shortest paths to get to pacman, becomes faster than other ghosts and does not scatter with them
pinky takes the same path as blinky but two dots in front him or up and to the left when pac is facing up
inky determines his path by drawing a line between two dots in front of pac and blinkys location
clyde chases just like blinky until he gets eight dots close to pac then runs to the left corner

fuck mario
>>
All has been said except that Yellow Koopa Troopas jumps over shells kicked towards them.
>>
>>329883237
>blinky takes the shortest paths to get to pacman
Not really. Ghosts decide which direction to turn based on which tile to the left or right at some junction puts them closest to the point they chase. No consideration of paths is made at all, so they will sometimes choose a much longer path.

>>329882284
>very slightly increases in speed, and after some time will permanently track pac-man unlike the other ghosts
I butchered this.
after you eat some amount of dots he'll speed up and continually chase you.

Thanks for the tips.

P.S., these two guys will beat the shit out Pac-Man if you ever say 'fuck mario' again.

Green - walks off platforms, Yoshi spits out regularly
Red - turns at the edge of the platform, Yoshi spits out as fire
Blue - same as red, but allows Yoshi to fly instead
Yellow - same as red, but allows Yoshi to ground pound instead

Pinky - tries to ambush Pac-Man
Blinky - Follows behind Pac-Man like a shadow
Inky - Tends to pussy out if Pac-Man head on
Clyde - Doesn't care about killing Pac-Man, just moves around as he pleases
>>
>>329885527
Red shells are the only ones that you spit out as fireballs. Unless you're red Yoshi, so every shell is fire

It's blue.

>>329880290
I never remember which ghost does what except Clyde being the retarded one,but I actually like how the devs clearly saw that by making everyone have the same AI the game would have been less fun.
>>
>>329886210
They also alternate between chasing you and just fucking around, which does a lot to keep things interesting.

What do you not understand about this?
He says they are the same as the red koopas probably just because it was easier than typing or copy/pasting the whole turning around at edges of platforms shit for both.
>>
>>329880290
I don't know about the koopas, but:
Red moves slightly faster and chases you
Pink tries to move to where you're headed, and cut you off
Blue works with Pink to close off your flanks
Brown is a dumbshit that wanders randomly.

But then that just confuses people talking about blue ghosts.
>>
>>329887775
That's why you say "cyan" instead
>>
>>329887775
