Being an absolute maniac for pac-man, I gotta say, this absolutely is a blast, it's super fun to play and is pretty easy to just boot up and play, extremely small file size and low power usage is just what I need for any long downloads, I recommend this for any pac-man fan for sure!!
I did end up trying this on my Shield TV, and it plays great!. But I suppose an issue is that the touch screen controls still appear on screen even if you're using a controller.
I'd love to see your take on other Namco classics, like Mappy, Galaga and Rally-X, based on their Arrangement versions. Even if none of those ever got mobile ports...
Very, very good game! I'm enjoying it a lot! But there's a bug I'm facing regularly in Enhanced mode only: sometimes the ghosts don't connect to Pac's touch, either when they're normal (I don't die) or when they're innofensive (can't eat them).
I'm experiencing this same "bug" a lot also- I've played hours of the original Pac games on actual arcade machines and hardware and I'll admit I do think the likelihood of this bug happening is higher in your Rewritten version. Sometimes when approaching vulnerable ghosts head-on in otherwise long, straight corridors I pass right through them even though we're not turning into each other.
I really appreciate your focus on accuracy otherwise though, I just feel like that recreated bug is either a little too "sensitive" or maybe a toggle to disable it would be useful.
Despite me not having beat the game, I can confirm that this is doubtlessly what you'd expect out of a full version of Pac-Man Plus' mobile port. The arcade-style music recreations are on-point, the maze-color ghost immunity is also on-point, and overall, I fail to find even the slightest flaw. If anyone's thinking about playing this game, delay no further. Consider this a positive review.

Achei muito legal mas que pena que isso só é Fangame
I love that you were nerdy enough to make this lol, plays great on Android!
call me weird but i love being called a nerd
(no, seriously, i do lol)
i can't play it
If you have a 32-bit system, that's probably why. Plus Mobile Rewritten is 64-bit only.
At first, we wanted to add support for 32-bit systems, but GameMaker said "screw you" and only gave us the option to export in 64-bit.
I am very sorry. It's not our fault.

That's actually a bug that happens in the arcade games, and this remake was made with the original Pac-Man code in mind.
Oh, I get it. Was this bug also present in the mobile version then?
