Create a new scene with Node2D as root

Rename it to Main

Add a TextureRect as child

Rename it to ReferenceMaze

Select the ReferenceMaze

Set the Scale to 3

Select the Main node

Add a TileMapLayer as child

Select the TileMapLayer

Add a new TileSet

Expand TileSet

Set Tile Size to 24 x 24

Select TileSet in bottom panel

Under Tile Sources add wall_atlas.png

Allow creation of the Atlas

Set the Texture Region Size to 32 x 32

Now switch over to the TileMap tab

In the bottom panel

Use the tiles provided to

Paint over the reference map

In Project Settings > Layer Names > 2D Physics

Rename the layers to represent the game objects

That live on those layers

We must add a physics layer to the TileMapLayer

To handle collisions

Select TileMapLayer

Under Physics Layers

Add an Element

Set Collision Layer to 2

Set Collision Mask to 1

Now we must paint the collision shapes on each tile

Select TileSet in the bottom panel

Select the Paint button

In Paint Properties

Select Physics Layer 0

Paint the shape of each tile

Pacman and the Ghosts can travel

But Ghosts travel slower here

Add an Area2D as a child of Main

Rename it to TunnelSlowZone

Add two CollisionShape2D nodes

Place them over the tunnels

Attach a script to the TunnelSlowZone

Select the TunnelSlowZone Node

Connect the body entered signal

Connect the body exited signal

Code the body entered signal

To adjust the tunnel speed modifier

For the ghosts

Code the body exited signal
