Pac-Man 4K | Atari 2600

Dennis Debro sought to create an adaptation of Pac-Man more faithful than Atari’s 1982 version for the VCS. Utilizing the same 4K memory limit as the original, Dennis’ game is a feat of programming that finally brings Pac-Man to the Atari 2600 as it was intended

Improvements over Atari’s Pac-Man:

- Original, arcade maze layout
- Proper “siren” sound that changes pitch
- Monsters are proper colours
- Maze is correct colours
- Pac-Man and Ghost graphics much truer to arcade
- Monster behaviour modelled after arcade
- Bonus items true to arcade
- Feels like Pac-Man!

Available to buy from AtariAge
