Overview

FishCN Pacman turns the currently-open code file into a Pac-Man maze. Non-whitespace characters are pellets, ghosts chase you across the visible code range. One keystroke hides the game and restores the original code instantly — your boss sees code, you see a chomp.

Features

• 🎮 Pac-Man inside the editor — the visible code IS the map
• 👻 Smart ghosts — chase you with Manhattan-distance pathfinding
• ❤️ 3 lives + score / remaining / combo tracker in the status bar
• ⌨ Single-key stealth toggle — instantly hide game and restore code
• 💾 Auto-restore on save — pressing Ctrl+S during play silently rebuilds the code first; no data loss
• 🎯 Visible range only — only what's on screen becomes the map, big files stay snappy
• 🔄 Resume after hide — Ctrl+Alt+P toggles, same run continues

How to Play

1. Open any code file in VSCode
2. Press Ctrl+Alt+P (Cmd+Alt+P on macOS) to start
3. Use Alt+↑ ↓ ← → to move
4. Eat all non-whitespace characters in the visible range, avoid M and W ghosts
5. Press Ctrl+Alt+P again to hide (code restored instantly)
6. Press Esc to fully exit

Safety

• Save protection — saving while the game is visible auto-rebuilds the original code first, so file content on disk is always the real code
• External edit detection — if another extension/agent modifies the file during play, the game gracefully aborts
• Editor restore — exiting restores the exact selections you had

Commands

Tips

• Works best on files with 100-500 visible lines of dense code
• Switching tabs auto-hides the game safely
• Don't manually edit during play — the game will reset the map

Known Limitations

• The map is the visible range at start time; scrolling after start doesn't extend the map
• Ghost AI is greedy Manhattan — they prefer straight lines
• Cannot play in non-text editors (notebooks, settings UI, etc.)

简介

FishCN Pacman 把当前打开的代码文件变成吃豆人迷宫。代码里的非空白字符 = 豆子，怪物在可见代码范围里追你。一个快捷键瞬间隐藏画面 + 还原代码——同事看是代码，你看是吃豆。

功能

• 🎮 编辑器内吃豆人 — 可见代码就是地图
• 👻 会追人的怪物 — 曼哈顿距离贪心寻路
• ❤️ 3 条命 + 得分 / 剩余 / 连击 状态栏显示
• ⌨ 一键隐身 — 瞬间藏起画面还原代码
• 💾 保存自动还原 — 玩到一半按 Ctrl+S 会先把原代码写回再保存，不会毁文件
• 🎯 只用可见范围 — 大文件不卡
• 🔄 隐藏后能续玩 — Ctrl+Alt+P 切换显隐，同一局继续

玩法

1. VSCode 打开任意代码文件
2. 按 Ctrl+Alt+P（macOS：Cmd+Alt+P）开始
3. 用 Alt+↑ ↓ ← → 移动
4. 吃光可见区域内所有非空白字符，避开 M 和 W 怪
5. 再按 Ctrl+Alt+P 隐藏（代码立刻还原）
6. Esc 完全退出

快捷键

状态栏

Code Pacman 12/85  Lives:3  Ghosts:2  CHOMP x4  Alt+Arrows move  Ctrl+Alt+P hide  Esc exit

安全

• 保存保护 — 玩到一半保存会自动先还原代码再写入，磁盘上始终是真代码
• 外部修改检测 — 其他插件 / agent 改动当前文件时游戏会主动中止
• 完整还原 — 退出时恢复你启动前的光标 / selection

命令

Tips

• 在 100-500 行密集代码文件里玩最爽
• 切换 tab 会自动安全隐藏
• 游戏期间不要手动编辑——会触发地图重建

已知限制

• 地图是启动时的可见范围，启动后滚屏不会扩展地图
• 怪物 AI 是贪心曼哈顿，喜欢走直线
• 不能在非文本编辑器（Notebook、设置 UI 等）玩
