It's silly nostalgia that keeps people from depicting Pac-Man in his true form.

Heh... I'm one to talk.

Thank god they got rid of that protruding nose. It looks like a face-phallus.

I'm sure after making it Fuck-Man, people would understandably know the point of the nose.
Pac-Man has no use for a nose.

Also, Joust man is awesome Heart

We could run away
Leave behind anything paper
Not knowing where we're going to stay
When there's no Mondays

You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
When I'm in your arms, I feel safe from harm and sorrow too
You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
But most of all, nothing couldn't be solved when I'm with you

I like the idea of pac-man without legs; he hovers. It looks cooler.

The ghosts are a bit big in comparison, though; either pac-man should grow 2x when he gets a power pill or they should be smaller.

For the actual sprites, I think that you probably need a lot more contrast.

Eh sorry it just annoys me how know one wants to draw/sprite Pac-Man in that form.

Mostly because I always wanted him to be recognized as a character and break out of that "just an arcade game" identity, and maybe evolve like Mario did.

But that's just me. This is about you. And those images are not working for me...

personally i find him much more iconic in his standard ball form. his arms and legs form looks like it is trying really hard to be a big cartoon icon like mickey mouse or something. ball pacman is simpler, more unique, and more memorable.
anyhow these look great

Maybe have Frogger's legs uhm, larger? They are huge in froger. Also, that font looks like it could use some AA.

Since you added Frogger, why not Dig Dug?
