#update

Hello everybody.

Sorry for the long absence. If you follow the community posts, you might have seen I've answered to a lot of people about the progress and the content of the game, but a proper update post is necessary, since it's been 4 MONTHS since I gave you a first look at the game.

So, first of all, yes, I got busy, and the progress on the game has been slow. While I consider the game to be more playable, it's far from complete and still not ready for a public demo (I'll try to release it before the end of the year, but be aware that I might not manage to do that :c ).

In the big progress side, I added the Twin Mode, based on the bootleg Arcade, Ms. Pac Twin, where each player has its own set of pac-dots and must eat all of them first to finish the level.

There is also a Time Attack mode, where you must clear a maze and a level set as fast as possible (and it's multiplayer compatible if you want to reach some insane low times).There are also some progress on the level sets, and you can see on the Time Attack video that we played on a custom set made for UltiMix by Flicky1211, called Ms. Pac-Man MSX Edition (which is NOT a real port, don't look for it, it doesn't exist), but we worked on levels from some obscures Pac-Man games, from the more modern entries like World 1 and World 2, and some clones released on old computers.

My goal now is to figure out what to do with the public demo, as I'd like you all to finally have your hands on the game, even if it's incomplete, but not in an unstable state or with half-baked features, like it is right now.

Sorry for the wait and I hope to bring you good news very soon!
