I can see the speed of the game increases over time; then the speed slightly decreases .... The length of time that the ghosts stay blue changes from quick to long lasting, back to quick.... Sometimes the ghost eyes go straight to the ghost box and other times, the eyes move around a while before getting into the box. The change ups are really refreshing ... it keeps the game from getting boring. Really well done !! There was a ton of thought that went into the programming! I wonder if there's a way to help ensure the ghost eyes take the long way home... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahahaahahahaa I did the same thing this afternoon..... ? I went to get my phone for a picture and I came back and saw the player select menu. ? I didn’t know if I could get the score back on the screen or not! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INTELLIVISION SPARTAN Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 After 50 horrible tries yesterday everything went right on this game today. I got lucky about seven times. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INTELLIVISION SPARTAN Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 I seem to have lost my mojo again. It’s really weird. I have to play 50 tries until I get on a good run. I chalk it up to excellent programming. I can’t wait to compete on Ms Pac-Man in the future. Nothing beats those marching fruit; and catching the bananas on the run! We had an Intellivision Ms. Pac-Man tournament here at my home a few years ago .... everyone was just loving the game! Holy Moly... what an amazing port of Ms. PAC !!!!!!!!!

Ace24 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Thanks! The ghost monsters get ridiculously fast don’t they? If it weren’t for the energizer-blue time and the relatively smaller maze, my Pac-man wouldn’t stand a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy Moly... what an amazing port of Ms. PAC !!!!!!!!! Your Ms Pac-Man was the “homebrew” then. Intellivision did not make Ms Pac-Man originally. Most people here won’t have the homebrew so we probably won’t be playing it unless everyone buys the ROM to play it on emulation or pays $180 for the cart on eBay. And there is only one available right now on eBay. Ain’t gunna happen! Edited August 16, 2020 by IntyFanMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_me Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Most people should have it. It was a free download at one time. https://carlmuellerjr.blogspot.com/2016/06/ms_22.html?m=1 Rickster8 uses nothing but emulation and is doing really well.

Some people do not play on emulation, like me or Spartan. Rickster uses the ultimate flashback, so he would need to reach out to that website to get the ROM. It is no longer free either. Honestly not sure if everyone is going to do that. Edited August 16, 2020 by IntyFanMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INTELLIVISION SPARTAN Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 No problem! For sure some home brews are very expensive !!! I’ll let you guys work out the rules for choosing games Accounting for accessibility of games. Ms. Pac was just a suggestion. I definitely have others that I would want before MPM anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the last homebrew played here was Christmas Carol, which is an amazing game. And I actually have that one! ?. That was back in season 10 but Jacob was not moderating. A homebrew has not been chosen since, but who knows, maybe he’ll shake things up with a homebrew at some point!

mr_me Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Worm whomper cartridges aren't cheap either, but you don't have to play every game if you don't want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep that’s a rare one, and is listed for around $60 on eBay now. Fortunately I have that one. And if you want to have a chance at winning the whole season, you’ll probably hafta play all the games.
