Oncoming Updates!


We're planning a couple new updates, one of which should be expected pretty dang soon!

Version 1.1

This is a quality-of-life update that adds these features.

  • Improved Windows and Android MIDI sounds! They're gonna sound much better now! Windows is gonna sound more accurate to the official Windows GM soundfont, and Android isn't gonna sound so echo-y or compressed anymore. 
  • New control panel designs for Android! Firstly, the control panel for Enhanced Mode is gonna be redesigned a bit: you now press OK to activate the powerups! (Arcade Mode's not gonna have the OK button, there's no need.) Secondly, and this is the big one... Recently, a touchscreen version of Pac-Man for BREW with the FULL CONTROL PANEL was found! That's right, and we're taking advantage of that by making the new control panel match the official one from the good ol' days!

Here are some mockups of the new  control panels!

  • The Android version's finally getting those long-overdue updated powerup sounds! We've been meaning to add those to the Android version for a long time now, but with Pookin's college assignments and GameMaker's special "PC users export free but Android users still don't" event, we couldn't. But now we're finally able to change that!
  • New icons! Not just Pac-Man on his own anymore!
  • More minor changes like a faster Teleport animation and improved Android menus.

Version 2.0!!!

Oh we've got quite a bit planned* for Version 2 of Pac-Man Mobile: Rewritten, it's gonna knock your socks off!

  • Fullscreen display! That's right, you can now play in sweet, sweet fullscreen!
  • Controller vibration! The Android version has vibration, the PC version does not. But that's gonna change! If you have a compatible controller, you can feel some sweet, sweet vibration when Pac-Man dies. (Okay, maybe it's not that sweet, because Pac-Man's biting the dust.)
  • Windows and Android sound styles platform-wide! Yea, this is something I feel like I just had to do. Exclusive sound styles is cool for awhile, but then it starts to lose its coolness eventually. Now you PC owners without an Android device can experience Android's weird soundbank, and you Android owners without a Windows PC can experience Windows' primitive soundbank on the go!
  • New CMX 4.1 sound style! There are plenty of higher-end phones that use CMX 4.1, but since I was so much more used to CMX 3.0, that's what we used. However, I'm getting pretty dang used to CMX 4.1, so I think it's about time we add that too! Glorious slightly-better-than-3.0 dumbphone MIDI glory!
  • You all hate the fourth maze in Enhanced Mode... and y'know what, so do I! So we're nerfing it! It'd be weird to have only three mazes in Enhanced Mode though, so we're replacing it with a maze from Ultra Pac-Man! (You know, that weird Pac-Man arcade bootleg with new mazes and weird palette swaps.) Which one? I'm not sure yet, but just wait, it'll be an improvement.
  • Your PC can't run 120FPS? We're planning on adding an option that lets you switch between 120FPS and 60FPS!
  • More easter eggs! That's all I'm saying, I ain't spoiling the surprise.

*Currently just plans, actual v2.0 contents may differ.


We hope you're excited for the new updates. Be on the lookout for Version 1.1 in the near future!

Waka Waka!
