Speed modded Jr. Pac-Man
#241586 - 12/19/10 08:47 AM


Had my first encounter with a turbo-speed modified Jr. Pac-Man this afternoon. I'd had no idea that such a thing even existed until then!

Pretty nasty surprise, too. The difficulty is greatly enhanced by the fact the scrolling is a hair sluggish; ghosts tend to pop up in your face out of nowhere with almost no time to react. I'd call it the exact opposite of the sped-up versions of the original and Ms. Pac-Man.

Kinda surprised this hasn't been dumped yet.

Both the jrpacman and jrpacmbl sets have it implemented as a cheat, but it only appears to work in jrpacman.

I've only seen normal speed versions of Jr. Pac-Man. I haven't decided whether or not to use an old version of WolfMAME that has the speed up cheat enabled, because there's no official turbo speed dump yet. I've played Jr. Pac-Man (turbo) on Multicade machines that Twin Galaxies can't and don't accept for world records attempts. It's sad, because my best score is just over 3 million, and still had more than 600,000 to go, points-wise, before the killscreen.
