I think whatever additions you have in mind, always have a classic mode. it can be very frustrating to be lookijg forba particukar gake and when you found it you realize its an abomination of its former self. also i would develop the classic version first as iit seems to be simpler to make obviously.
Remaking pacman, just, why? But if you are really determined to improve upon it, could make a Miss Pacman that we can tell is Miss Pacman bow or no bow, if you know what I'm saying. No, I'm not saying make an XXX rated pacman game, just make there be a real difference between Pacman and Miss Pacman.
You should import Tile sets that look very arcade and retro instead of just using the normal map tile sets. Also everything should be very neon in terms of color and glowy...
To be honest though I'd like to see a remake of Centipede :)
I very much like having cool arcady games in arcade, but I must confess that I never found pacman to be particularly interesting. It might have been cool at a time, but by the time I got in computer games, this game of being a victim did not impress me (probably due to me sucking horribly at it and as a result rarely getting past 1st level, and when I did manage to eat everything I was rewarded with more of the same. I suppose that kind of puzzle isn't my type).
I'm curious about what you can make of it. If it was for me, you should make something in spirit of pacman. Not a remake, and not a minor alteration, something fresh, yet familiar. But I don't have a heart for that game, you do, so I'll be waiting to see with what you come up.
I'm thinking of making a multiplayer version, and I'm just wondering.
Variety in terms of creeps, map layout and gameplay elements.
Multiplayer, abilities/pickups, maybe even a mix of bomber man and pacman...
Ideas so far:
-6 Characters: Ghost, Spectre, High Templar, Sentry, Infestor, and Queen.
-Abilities: Still in progress.
-Random map generator: Still in progress.
-Powerups: Ammo, Energy refill, Extra life, Bonus points, Speed boost, Cooldown nullifier, and Point defense Drone
-Enemies:
-Bosses
-Shooters
-Reincarnated People who lost all lives
If I'd remake Pacman I'd include more bacon.

Banelings
responsive controls, lagless wasd
idea: multiplayer would be nice if you have 1 player at a time (round) being the pacman and others being the monsters :^)
I'd like if it looked not like sc2 mod full of gay marines and silly zealots, but like true 2d pac-man.

(let your own post serve as reasoning behind the name calling)
