@@Duskool Can't recreate the functionality of the Power Pellet properly. The ghosts are only supposed to appear blue to the player who eats the Power Pellet, so the Pac-Maze stage doesn't work if multiple players can play on the same screen. I suppose they could just not make the ghosts turn blue, or just not feature that mechanic in the first place, but you know Sakurai. He doesn't like making compromises, for better or worse.

I'm fascinated with the 80's and 2010's Pac-Man cartoons because any attempt to craft a coherent narrative out of source material which resembles viewing amebas through an 8-bit microscope deserves attention for the sheer ambition alone.

Pac Man, to me, is one of the few characters that still carries that 1980's style and charm. And it's for good reason too, because he's just as fun now as he's ever been.

I love how, no matter how much "nostalgia" was in or not, they always gave Pac-Man an arcade aesthetic. Like, being intentionally behind-the-times, no matter what decade, made the series ahead of its time in the process? That's ridiculously ironic. But still, I love how Pac-Man's whole old-fashioned gimmick has been a thing since even the 90's(when the series was only ~10-20 years old at that point). I'm a 2010's kid, and even I appreciate how they preserved the style no matter what(outside, you know, legal bs). Plus, simply acknowledging Pac-Man being a full-on adult that accepts his age is weirdly wholesome in a way. Well, outside Ghostly Adventures to an extent.

It takes what Maze Madness does and expands upon the idea of one grand adventure using solely mazes. Incredibly underrated game and definitely worth checking out.

OMG my dude, I actually had that game as a kid! I remember that one being a good time, and it helped make me a fan of the series instead of just "that one old game". Still dunno what was up with that...thing...in the cave from the intro cutscene that was supposed to be the game's villain, though. Pac-Man's got a surprising amount of villains. I played Adventures in Time before I even knew about the World games, so it was cool to see that, "Oh you actually can make a full-length adventure from just mazes". I'd kinda like the series to give that format a shot again if we're not gonna get a new platformer (though I didn't expect Re-Pac, so we might get that too lol). Arrangement even proved that you can do boss fights in mazes, so why not? Though if we're talking obscure Pac-Man games, I'll call your "Adventures in Time" and raise you a Pac-Man All-Stars. It was a multiplayer-centric game, though there was a single-player story mode and the villain was a white-colored magician ghost named Wandy (why the heck do I remember that). Adventures in Time was the better game without question, but It seems like I'm the only one who remembers this one lol.

The one issue I've heard about this remake is Pac-Man's shadow being inconsistent. The remake has the shadow based on the level's actual lighting, which is more realistic than always below him like the original, but makes platforming more difficult without that visual cue of where you will land. 20:36 shows an example, where the shadow would suggest he will land near the top of the objects, but he lands on the bottom-half.

However, looking at it again, not only did he open up the history of side-scrolling action before Mario, and he was respected by its creator, Mr. Miyamoto, but also based on his work, Mario, to compete with him. The reason for the birth of various game characters is undoubtedly Pac-Man, a legend that will never be forgotten.

My Favorite Pac Man arcade game is actually Baby Pac Man, a cabinet I actually played in real life. Its a combination of Pac Man and Pinball. You play Pac Man on the top screen but theres these 2 entrances on the bottom, and if you enter them, you get to switch the game to a round of pinball. If the ball falls out, the game switches back to pac man except one of the entrances is closed. Yes this was an actual arcade Cabinet and it was awesome! Except for the fact that Clyde was Green for some reason. It didn't feel right for him to go from Orange to Green

So, he acted like Pinky the Ghost having a thing for Pac-Man was weird but… I thought that’s been implication for… almost the entire time

Pinky having a crush on Pac-Man has been a thing since 2002 on Pac-Man World 2

Great video! Really fun and entertaining. also yeah, I could go on for ages about all the obscure oddities involving Ghostly Adventures specifically and some of the more under-the-surface reasons it failed. Interesting stuff, though also sad, since I feel that with a little tweaking it could have hit that nice balance of compelling story without falling into the same edgy trap that world 3 did. Unfortunately, GA just... stagnated, was too scared to really play with anything outside the show's status quo, and ultimately the last few episodes petered out with a few gimmicks before being unceremoniously cancelled. Was thinking of doing a video on it myself, actually.

Sad AntDude didn't mention Kamen Rider Heishi Generations, with Pac Man being a huge thing in it and it was also a villain.

With the different fusion ghosts in Pac-Man Arrangements, you begin to realize why he's named Kinky: -Kinky + Blinky: A bull that can ram into you if he sees you; Kinky made Blinky horny~ -Kinky + Pinky: A bunny that can hop there wherever you are; Playboy Bunny Pinky~ -Kinky + Inky: A mirror ghost of Inky that can also get you killed if touched; Inky is a twosome kinda guy~ -Kinky + Clyde: A chubbier Clyde who can drop smaller pellets to keep the stage longer; Clyde loves with pride~ Therefore: If we combine Kinky + Kinky, we get Rule 34~

38:43 Fun little tidbit about Cosmo Gang slightly unrelated to the video itself. A lot of stuff from Cosmo Gang was actually referenced/reused in Dig Dug Arrangement, which released in the same collection Pac Man arrangement originated from. The most notable examples are the rolling crystal balls (complete with the same scream sound if enemies are hit with them) and the Cosmo Gang enemies and blocks appearing in the Moon level of the game.

19:25 That new design looks like a villain from Rolie Polie Olie and I love it. X3

I've been a huge Pac-Man fan my whole life so this was a fun watch. I think Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is the best one, just pure satisfying fast paced arcade fun

Im loving the longer videos from the KZreadrs i watch. Both Caddi and and Antdude

I remember playing Pac-Man 256 on my TV a lot, along with the dev’s other game Crossy Road I also watched Ghostly Adventures as a kid, but I also felt aware of its weirdness even back then

Great video. I especially love all of his Battle Royale games. Pac-Man Battle Royale, Pac-Man Party Royale, Pac-Man Battle Royale Chompionship Edition, Pac-Man Mega Tunnel Battle.... all great games

videogames sure have come a long way since antdude

I remember the Ghostly Adventures show. My favorite characters in the show are the main ones like Cylindria.

Weird how my introduction to PAC Man was PAC Man World and not the orignal arcade so I always found it strange when I was young they keep switching to top down maze segments

*Re-Pac just proves that the Pac, indeed, just can't be beat.*

I feel like the whole Ms. Pac Man situation could've been explained further, especially consider one of the GCC guys did a GDC postmortem on the game which delves further into some of the licensing. Essentially, Bandai Namco has to pay GCC royalties every time they want to use the character.

If ghostly adventures writing is half as clever and comedic as Sonic Boom it's worth it

it doesn't.

I don't know why but there's something a bit funny how Ms. Pac-Man is being treated as an un-person by Namco

Last I checked, Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures had an animated hologram-card cover that switched from mellow to panicked, when it was initially released. Maybe I'm thinking of the Genesis version, though.

You’re thinking of the Genesis version.

Call me weird, I knew the company that made Pacman World Rally. I was a kid at the time, but the company that made it was Smart Bomb, my dad was one of the artist for the game. The company also went to make Snoopy Flying Ace for the XBLA. Seeing the beta builds for the game and testing the collision detection in their games was cool. Fun times as a kid.

I miss the days when video games came with Pac-ins

I know that this is kinda off topic, but I went to a local arcade dedicated to keeping older/arcade games from becoming lost media, started playing the OG pac-man and just got addicted for like an hour and a half straight. There really is something so beautiful about the simplistic design of old arcade games. There’s only a single joystick in the original pac-man but it still feels like a kind game of outsmarting the ghosts and managing to juke them to keep munching on those precious dots. Get rewarded for risky plays by an increase and score, and while it may sound stupid to some people, there’s a kind of magical feeling to reaching the top of the scoreboard and claiming your throne as the best PAC-man. I dunno man, OG PM is fun.

I was really hoping for a redux of the Antdude Pacman-2 walk performance.

I'm flattered to see a relatively popular gaming KZread use the footage I recorded. Nice to see I'm showing the spotlight on games not really brought up here.
