    Floooh's pacman.c is an outstanding one file implementation of Pacman in C. He uses his own very good libraries (called sokol) to do the graphics and audio but you can definitely learn a lot from reading the code. It is very accurate too - it's based off the Pacman Dossier (copy included).

    Not "serious" at all but I wrote a Pacman clone over the holidays as an excercise and test for my cross-platform C header bindinds:

    ...and before that I did the same in C99 (might be useful for comparing the languages):

    Disclaimer: I'm not a Zig expert at all, and the project doesn't really require most things where Zig differs from C. But I think writing small and "for-fun" projects like this is important for getting used to a language. I think one of Zig's big qualities is that it is so straightforward, after a few hundred lines you hardly have to look up things in the language documentation anymore.
