Hmm... I look Wuzel's inp now, seems that you have figured out pattern for first stage, propably others too. I have a loong pattern, and difficult one for sandbox land, plus maybe some starting patterns for levels afterwards. Anyway, nice scoring...but you stop your playing same place I start 8O . You have about 300K before sandbox land, while I have 150K bonus after finishing it. So I lost 150K starting at SBland, ugh. But I'm happy to have get past first full round, both jungle steps, which was my aim at the time of highscore.

What I didn't like were the comments about the game:
Really you can not say that Pacmania is not good game. It can be a little difficult sometimes, little annoying sometimes...but surely a very good game...I count it as a classic, one of the last ones.
I'm sure the game gets boring, if you start all over again after first foul.
If you try to use patterns, then it sure get's somewhat boring...I think you cannot use patterns for whole level anyway. My sandbox pattern works up to first ghost salad, after that randomness of eaten ghosts kicks in.
And sure if you play one week all the time, any game can get annoying.
But don't say you hate the game if you play it 500 times.

Thnaks for listening my wrath,

I don´t hate pacmania. I think it is a great game. After 200 tries and one week of playing one game those words comes out of my in pure frustration though :) It doesn´t matter if it is Moon patrol or Arkanoid (favorites for me)

Give me a few weeks and I will prolly play pacmania again hehe

i made a pattern for stage 1 and about 3 or maybe 4 patterns for stage - one worst one better
des made a totaly awsome pattern for stage 3 :)
and u right the pattern works only for first ghost hunting - then is total fun :)

i hate this game and nothing gonna change my mind
if not in k3 i would never play it :)
and after 500 tries i hate it even more - but its a fun and very interesting game :)

I think those guys are rolling their eyes, because first you say you hate the game, and straight after you say it's fun. :roll:
But im not sure, cause dont know any of them, to me looks like they're wondering something?
