Pac Mania (Amiga) + 5 PD Pac-Man clones - Reviewed by LemonAmiga.com

Pac Mania was perhaps the peak of my personal interest in this yellow unstoppable pill-popping cheese pizza, who is scared to death of immaterial severed ghosts heads of various colours. :) Production Notes ============= Ripped: 5 Nov 2013 (Pac Mania) and 26 Feb 2014 (others) Started: 26 Feb 2014 Completed 27 March 2014 Version: 3 Revision E I wanted to recapture the 'aliveness' of the Deluxe Galaga + Clones with this effort, and I say 'contender' in the video too; although I dont actually announce a 'best runner up Vs Pac Mania' - I guess its got to be Deluxe Pac-Man AGA. This was one of those reviews which got better then more I added more things to it. The bulk of the work was done over 30 hours split into 4 days, and then minor revisions followed as and when I watched the film over. The big issue was how to make the full screen Pac Mania full screen on your TV. I tried the 4:3 method but in the end I went back to having a smaller window squarely in the centre of the widescreen format. I have Authentic Amiga Graphics Size 1:1 Vs My Ratio on 16:9 format TVs battles all the time. In this case I eventually called for a ceasefire. Editing the voice was difficult and I had to make so many inserts to cover slurred words, many duplications of words, but also mainly to clear up patches where I say completely the wrong things. Minor audio pops and clicks are also removed by hand in each case, as they have been since The Settlers. In general I'm fairly happy with it, and some jokes worked, so I think a diamond in the rough.
