i'm not really whinin', but they've done dozens of these that are cool-looking and legible, so when i open up my browser for the 5 millionth time and actually don't immediately think "google" when i see the logo i kinda think c'mon, you guys are pros at this, what gives.

The strawberry is tilted so it's clearly an 'e'. Have you considered the problem is you?

ok if we're gonna have a silly argument, let's have a silly argument: how many fonts have an 'e' with a perfectly round hole and no line underneath the enclosed circle?

holy crap I just played both players at once and almost had a heart attack! It adds this whole layer of strategy because you can lead ms pac-man off in a suicide mission to draw away the ghosts and then have (uh...mr.) pac-man eat a power pellet at the last second to save her.

PAC-MAN is playable on iPad and modern smartphones (Nexus One, iPhone 3GS, Palm Pre, etc.). Not available on mobile homepage but doodle will appear if people switch to the classic mode (iPad uses Classic as default).

Sound may be flash, but the game is javascript - it works on the iPad (though is a bit too fiddly)

Got it. You have to change the program at the bottom so that the 5 digit target in the top right matches the number on the main tape. There are 6 levels, each one corresponding to a letter in 'Google', which lights up when you've figured out the sequence for that letter.
