    Pac-Man Plus is an arcade game that was released by Bally Midway in 1983. It is part of the Pac-Man series of games.
    Gameplay
    The gameplay in Pac-Man Plus is nearly identical to that of the original Pac-Man. The player controls Pac-Man and attempts to score as many points as possible by eating all the Pac-Dots in the maze while avoiding the four ghosts that chase him around the maze and will kill him if they catch him. Eating a Power Pellet will cause the ghosts to turn blue and become vulnerable for a short period of time, allowing Pac-Man to eat them for extra points. Once the maze has been cleared, it will be refilled as the gameplay continues.
    The most noticeable differences between the original game and Plus are various tweaks to the graphics: the maze is green instead of blue, vulnerable ghosts are shorter and have a stem and leaf sticking out of their heads, the fruits have been replaced by new items (including a can of Coca-Cola) and the ghosts' eyes are now a pixel closer to each other. In addition to these cosmetic changes, Plus also changes the gameplay slightly: eating a bonus item will cause the ghosts to turn both vulnerable and invisible, and doubles their point value while they are vulnerable. Eating a Power Pellet also sometimes has unpredictable results, such as turning the maze invisible or turning only three of the four ghosts blue (the latter of which makes it impossible to clear a round by using a pattern). The ghosts are also faster and more aggressive than they were in the original Pac-Man, which makes the game seem overall faster-paced and more difficult by comparison.

      No problem! Great to see you here! I plan on continuing these parody videos because they're fun to make, but if you have any problems with them layer down the line to not hesitate to tell me. Right now I'm working on comparing Hone Alone.

      @@diskyboy86 I have absolutely no problem with you making them. You are taking a lot of pressure off of me & for that & am grateful. I am especially thrilled that you are using the same format. :) Keep up the great work !

    I think the Atari 5200 is the one with less effort since the ghosts when you eat a power pellet they just turn black and also lets not forget that the fruits in that version are the ones from the original game.

      It is quite the lazy hack. Even the 2600 seemed to have more effort put into it. The ghosts do some times become black in the arcade game though, there's just a lot of R.N.G. involved so it didn't end up occurring in my footage.

      Thanks for your kind words! Just a shame I couldn't get the Colecovision version to work.

    For Pac-Man Plus on the ColecoVision collection, highlight Pac-Man on the title screen and then press 7,5,8,7 on the second controller. That should unlock Pac-Man Plus.

      Thanks for the help. I did already know this is how it was done, but played on a emulator, and at the time, didn't know enough about RetroArch to see what keys the buttons were mapped to.
