I'm surprised this isn't rated higher! Although there are a few glitches here and there, particularly with the ghost collision, and the ambient sound for Pac-Mania mode was a bit ear-splitting (glad there was an option to shut it off), this is overall a fun and enjoyable way to play Pac-Man! The inclusion of Miru was particularly nice, and might be good for some of those larger boards like the Atari one! In fact, all the settings make for some nice mix-ups to the classic game! All in all, this is quite the experience!

v2.7.0 RELEASE NOTES: https://eventlesstew.newgrounds.com/news/post/1433646
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.
==CONTROLS==
W, A, S, D or Arrow Keys - Move the player.
Space - Ability (Can be set in the menu)
==ABOUT==
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!

Eventlesstew responds:
Thank you :D
YES! I've been waiting for the Game for my entire life!
Eventlesstew responds:
Glad I made your day :)
This was an Amazing Remake imo, although there's a glitch where if you Jump immediately, Funky and Spunky wont get out of the Ghost House
Other than that ig, I scored the highest score here and I loved it! !
Pretty dang cool.
Eventlesstew responds:
Thanks :D
Great game! Very faithful to the arcade games, and I love how customizable it is. Early 80s Pac-Mania is something I never knew I needed.
The controls are a bit delayed though, and I don't like how you credited AtGames for Ms. Pac-Man. AtGames deserves no credit, they're one of the worst companies ever.
Couple suggestions: a Plus gamemode, a pause button if possible, and remove any mention of AssGames.
Response to reply: the new modes are fun, especially Punky's Revenge! It's nice to see Punky get respect, especially since his only official appearance was in a now-broken Sandbox Evolution gamemode.
Eventlesstew responds:
Ayyyy very glad you checked out my game. Love your content btw.
The way Pac-Man and the ghosts move use Scratch’s Glide blocks which explains the input delay. I want to find a way to make the movement not as strict in the future to remove input delay and better pausing.
I don’t know about a pause button, but I’m definitely considering adding a Pac Man Plus Game Style + an original Game Style based on the Ginza Style Pac Store.
Btw as much of a shit company AtGames is, I wanna reduce the chances of a potential AtBelch ninja slicing my ass in half lol.
Also what do you think of the Fruit Chase and Punky’s Revenge Gamemodes?
Response to edit: Glad to give the neglected fella a chance, even if that neglect had a certain effect on him. Also, I updated the game to include a Plus game style and I also changed the Assgames credit to something you might find funny. Pause button and input fix (Which is cos of glide blocks being used) are still not implemented though, sorry.
