At first I thought this must be a harder version than the 5200 one I'm used to. The super pellets didn't last long nor did the ghosts stay blue. Then I noticed that the line of images, representing the boards you've been on, where much higher than they should be. For some odd reason when the game first boots the default level isn't board number one (Apples). Odd that it would be like that.
Great score darthkur
Maybe this is just on the ROM version as the file version I have starts on apples? The game is listed as a prototype on Atarimania so guess it needs a bit of polish! The two player options doesn't seem to work properly... it's a good game, but not great. I think the original pacman (the one with the intermissions) is still the best version. I've had a shed load more goes but cannot get any further... I'd like him to move a tad faster as the levels increase and it would be nice to be able to have a fair chance to get the ghosts. Another one for a skilled coder to fix/finish one day
p.s. just looked on
atarionline.pl and they have various file and ATR versions and the ROM version so will have a look at them...
WELL BLOW ME DOWN - The ROM version has a scrolling message that tells you
you can go faster when supersized by pressing fire - so I guess you can get super-sized, get a power pill and motor around and eat the ghosts?! OK armed with this secret maybe I can do better
so.. i have a quick go on the emulator, get large, go ballistic bashing through doors willly-nilly and this happens:
LOL
