About the Pacman Yellow template

Pacman Yellow lifts maze-blue backgrounds and pellet-glow accents straight from arcade cabinets—a palette that triggers immediate 1980s muscle memory. Retro-game platforms, arcade enthusiasts, and old-school game publishers live here. Real-time analytics let you watch nostalgia-driven sign-ups arrive in waves.

What the demo shows

The live demo on this page launches Munchlog, a made-up product we wrote to show the template with realistic copy: the headline reads “It eats noisy logs for breakfast” and the subhead says “A tiny CLI that chews through gigabytes of logs, swallows the duplicates, and leaves only the lines worth reading.” Below it you see the signup form, a demo launch countdown and the share-to-climb referral panel exactly as a visitor would. Try the form: in the demo nothing is stored. When you use Pacman Yellow, you replace Munchlog with your own product name, headline, subhead and logo; the palette and motion come with it and every colour stays editable.

Design details

Pacman Yellow is a dark template: a deep blue background (#0c1233), cream type (#fef3c7) and a vivid amber accent (#facc15) on the join button, the countdown and the referral highlights. Body text sits at a 16.4:1 contrast ratio against the background, comfortably past the WCAG AAA threshold. Behind the copy the page animates with a pulsing dot grid, front and centre; visitors who ask their device for reduced motion get a still frame instead. Structurally it uses the Bold layout, shared with 59 other templates, but the palette, the motion and the demo copy are Pacman Yellow's own.

How it compares

Within Retro / Gaming, Pacman Yellow stands out for its vivid amber accent on a deep blue ground. If it is not quite right, Synthwave Sunset is also dark but leans on a vivid pink accent and the odd shooting star (“Neon grid into the horizon”). Donkey Kong is also dark but leans on a red accent and drifting pixel blocks (“Barrel red, scaffolding”). Street Fighter is also dark but leans on a red accent and hard-edged brutalist blocks (“Hadouken blue, K.O. red”). All of them share the same signup, referral and analytics features, so switching later only changes the look.
