regarding the super pac-man thing, that was an in-dev title left in the code. guessing something on the board's fucked enough to display that somewhere tcrf.net/Ms._Pac-Man_...
![Excerpt from The Cutting Room Floor's page on Ms. Pac-Man, in the "Development Leftovers" section:
"Development Leftovers
Original Ms. Pac-Man hardware consisted of a daughtercard containing encrypted ROMs that plugged into the Z80 socket on a standard Midway Pac-Man logic board. Those encrypted ROMs would decrypt and apply a patch in real time to the original Pac-Man ROMs (still present on the logic board), but decrypted romsets (commonly used on bootleg hardware) are pre-patched, essentially doing away with the daughtercard and the "real time patch" method. Poking around in the decrypted/patched 6J ROM (pacman.6J in the encrypted "mspacman" romset, BOOT4 in the decrypted "mspacmab" romset) yields a couple traces of Ms. Pac-Man's development.
Located at $8C6-$8D2:
SUPER@PAC;MAN
(In the game's text map, the @ symbol is used for spaces, and semicolons are used for hyphens.)
"Super Pac-Man" was an in-development title for Ms. Pac-Man, as explained by programmer Steve Golson during GDC 2016. This title predated Ms. Pac-Man but succeeded "Crazy Otto". One year later, Namco would create and release their own Pac-Man sequel with this title.

I slept through the whole day but I did work on this retexture last night (or I guess really early in the morning). 's a simple one but I liked the idea.

Flower and Star done
Flower wasn't terrible? but I still struggled a lot on some of the courses with really thin paths.
Star cup I feel like was an entire fluke. A miracle from God. I should not have won this yet somehow perfected through despite crashing into so many walls as a heavyweight.

current progress: cleaned it quite a bit, replaced the thumbsticks with Xbox One thumbsticks I had, and replaced the screws with new ones as the previous ones looked fucked.

...and the few missions I hated were not even close to the amount of frustration I had with Sunshine. I think this game is just right for me and it's something I loved a lot.
finally glad to get this shit off my game bucket list.
one day, buddy. you will follow suit.
