Revisiting a Pac-Man Implementation in Perl/Tk

It was never intended to be an exact reimplementation of the original game. There are plenty of those in almost every programming language imaginable. What interested me more was a different question: how could the structure of a game like Pac-Man be represented as a relatively simple data structure, with the Perl/Tk user interface merely visualizing that structure on a Canva…
