The clockwork Pac Man
Classic video gaming finds its way into a lot of interesting places, but Jonathan M. Guberman is currently working a sequel to an already interesting creation. As the inventor of the Automatypwriter (a typewriter that works by itself), Guberman was looking for a fun and fabulous follow-up. He came up with the Pactuator, or the Pac Machina.
The Pac Machina will be a electromechanical (but playable) adaptation of the classic Pac Man game. The cabinet will feature a simple, yet effective, clockwork Pac Man. His hope is to create a completely mechanical game and use it as a fundraising auction for Child’s Play, a gaming charity that brings a bit of fun to sick kids all over the world.
Check out some of his preliminary plans for his hopeful invention here.
