Pac-Man SuperFast

Pac-Man SuperFast (also stylized as Pac-Man SuperFast!) is a YouTube Playable remake of the original Pac-Man game. It was developed by RedFox Games and released on YouTube in 2024.
== Gameplay ==
Pac-Man SuperFast is a remake of the original Pac-Man arcade game. This version of the game has a feature where, over time, the speed of Pac-Man and the Ghosts will increase up to two times in a level, additionally changing the color of the maze. Later stages of the game cause the maze colors to flash quickly, with effects becoming more and more spontaneous and fast as the game goes on. The game itself gives no warnings, but it could be very dangerous to players who have epilepsy.
The game has a total of 13 levels, with the starting speed increasing with each one. After beating level 13, the game ends, with the player being given a Congratulations screen and a display of their score on a leaderboard, and a prompt to replay the game. Each stage has its own fruit, with their scores increasing with the level number. The fruit in order are Cherry, Strawberry, Orange, Apple, Melon, Eggplant, Banana, Donut, Rocketship, Bell, Key, and Fox. Stage 13 has life powerups instead of fruit, which give no points and look like a stylized Pac-Man head. An extra life is given every 5000 points no matter how many times it has been reached or how far the player has gotten into the game.
=== Game Speeds ===
As aforementioned, it is warned by players that epilepsy or seizure-inducing concerns may apply from later speeds' flashing effects (especially the rapid-paced "Maniac" and "Doom" speeds, which appear particularly dangerous).
# Easy - Blue
# Steady - Green
# Brisk - Yellow
# Fast - Hot Pink
# Very Fast - Purple
# Super Fast - Red
# Crazy - Flashing Cyan (This speed level changes the graphics into ones inspired by the vectorized style from Pac-Man Championship Edition DX, and is also when the maze wall colors begin flashing)
# Insane - Flashing Red
# Maniac - Flashing Green
# Maniac+ (through Maniac+++) - Flashing Rainbow (The maze walls begin quickly cycling through colors as the insides of the walls flash between color and black)
# Doom - Faster Flashing Rainbow (The final effect, rapidly speeds up the flashing color effect and displays even more random colors for the maze walls and their insides)

== Trivia ==
*A European trademark registry for Pac-Man Superfast was filed in August of 2023.https://euipo.europa.eu/eSearch/#details/trademarks/018919634 The game was otherwise not publicly announced until its release in October 2024.
*Rather than using the original pixel sprites, all of the in-game graphics are rounded vectors (similar to some 2010s promotional assets). A similar graphic style was used in the Roku TV port of Pac-Man.
*The Fox bonus item appears to be in reference to the game's development studio, RedFox Games.
