It only runs for about a minute. It's still a beta version.

It has Pac Man as p1, Ms Pac Man as p2, a boy Baby Pac as p3 and a girl Baby Pac as p4. It uses the Ms Pac Man sprites for bonus items, ghosts, and death animations so if posting it is a problem I won't distribute it.

It's up to you if you want to post it, but I would advise against it. A screenshot of the game in action would probably be ok. I would love to see how Family Battle Royale looks.

Thanks for the info... I'll post some screenshots when I get the skin up and running! Thanks again for providing such a great game to the community!

I can't seem to get it to show just one sprite at a time, or it cuts off part of the sprite. Do they each have to be an exact size? (Is that the 32x32 you mentioned?) Do they get placed edge to edge or should there be some space between them? I get that the numbers represent where things go, but is that the middle of where you put the sprite, the top, or something else?
These are all probably really dumb questions but I worked on this last night and this morning and just can't get it right. I tried using Le Chuck's as a base but even then no luck. Maybe I should just wait until someone uploads a completed one and modify that lol.
Oh, and awesome work Sjaak! The game looks so cool!

In Photoshop you can turn on grids that are exactly 32 pixels between gridlines. Easiest way would be to double click on your ruler (if ruler is not on, hit ctrl+r) then click on "Guides, Grids, and Slices" and set gridline to every 32 pixels. If you want to make subdivisions within each 32x32 square you can, but setting that at 1 will work fine too.

Thank you for this! I don't have photoshop, using GIMP, but figured out how to turn the grid on in there and it has helped immensely.

Here's a screenshot of my "Pac Family" skin... it has some obvious issues given that the sprites for all but standard pac man aren't vertically symetrical but it still looks cool in action.

For laughs, I'm going with a Wizard of Wor theme.
