(Plus v2.7.3 and v2.7.4)
Yep, I've packaged my feature-heavy and accurate Scratch remake of Pac-Man using Turbowarp and posted it onto Newgrounds lol.
Please note that some parts of the game may not be polished well. If there are any bugs, feel free to comment about it.
Pac-Man Scratched is a remake of Pac-Man that I made on Scratch (No kidding) that is now here thanks to the Turbowarp Packager. The content in the game includes, but is not limited to:
- A very accurate remake of the arcade classics.
- Maze editor to let your creativity run wild!
- Option presets to make it easier to play Ms. Pac-Man and Jr. Pac-Man and Arcadified Atari Pac-Man and Pac-Mania
- Several different mazes to choose from.
- Junior Jumble (Jr. Pac-Man mazes) makes use of the extra screen space to show the entire maze on the screen.
- Arcadified variations of the Atari 2600 maze and the Pac-Mania mazes (Mania Mashup) are present.
- The Randomiser gives you a random maze with random colors. There may be a chance that you'll find a secret in all the randomness.
- Gamemodes change the way you play Pac-Man. Eat all of the dots in the maze like normal, make Pac-Man faster, (Speed up) chase down Miru and get the fruit she is holding, (Fruit Chase) face one ghost instead of four, (Punky's Revenge) or randomise everything! (Random Chaos)
- Game Styles can change the gameplay to match the gameplay for the original game, Ms./Jr Pac-Man, Atari Pac-Man and Pac-Mania.
- Multiple playable characters, they don't have any gameplay changes though.
- You can jump or speed up at the push of a button. (Ability)
- Play some tunes from Namco Classics. (Music) You can even let the maze decide for you. (Music - Auto)
- You can slow down or speed up the game using Game Speed.
- Confuse Clyde with Blinky. (Or you can swap Clyde with Sue or Tim if you want, done through Clyde Swap.)
With all of these features letting you play Pac-Man your way, I hope you enjoy!

I got a great idea for another ability: the bombs from Pac-Man Championship game collection, with a cooldown of at least 10 seconds so you can't just launch the ghosts to oblivion
Very good!!! Just wanted to get that out the way, I have a couple issues though. When you push P it plays a cut scene and often leads to game breaking and the Pac-dots disappearing. This is especially sucks when you're editing a level and forget which keys do what. Was this left in by mistake?
Other issues I found with the editor, is not being able to copy the save data/edit the dimensions of the maze, though I have been informed about a Turbowarp edition which I can't find.
(Edit: I found it)
And when you place a tile with the "Punky's Revenge" Game mode and play test it, it crashes.
Also with the Jump ability, you can spam it, when you couldn't in the original game; Pac-Man would bounce for a bit before being able to jump again. I wouldn't care if this was fixed or not, but I just wanted to point that out.
Also, I have a request! Add an auto tiler option! this might be asking for much but it would be cool. Possibly scanning around a single tile and replacing it with an appropriate tile is how I would go about it.
But besides that, this is just a really good game!!
Love the game, but I don't know why, but on Turbowarp on the maze editor, I can actually change the maze size and copy the code of the level. Here on NG, the options don't even show up...

Weird
This looks good, however I have 1 improvement. Add a Plug and Play Mode for those of us who grew up with the Jakks Pacific Namco Plug and Plays, plus the Bandai Plug and Plays too.
