It is definitely interesting but it seems like the ghosts were also affected by the spinning.  If they had a set pat and it rotated a little bit slower it might actually be fun.

It's just Cameltry Pac. The hack obviously messes up the emulation, though, as the siren intermittently stops and starts. It doesn't really mess with me, but it doesn't work because the whole frame of reference moves. Cameltry doesn't have this problem because the view is pretty local.

That second is one funny for about ten seconds.
