International owl day?! What a great time to post this!
Say hello to the new Aly design, made to fit with my rebrand!
She's inspired by the "Cyber Glacier" aesthetic!
Hope you all like her as much as I do 🩵 ❄️

This is my final project -- Man-Pac Revision 2.
It's a demonstration of what the new Ms. Pac-Man disassembly can allow one to do that hex editing can't.
There's also a new flyer made to celebrate the occasion, a collaboration with @ric4455.bsky.social.
Get it now:
drive.google.com/file/d/1HnLC...

The back half of a fictional flyer for Man-Pac, depicting the titular character trying to escape the lab in which he was created. Text on the flyer tells of a "Fake Pac-Man on the loose!" "It's... Man-Pac! They made this ghostly clone to destroy Pac-Man... but he has escaped!" In the artwork section of the flyer, a green and grey laboratory with shiny green tiled floors is depicted. A security warning informing everyone of a breach in progress can be seen in the far back. Kinky (a.k.a. Kinzo) is looking on in panic as her creation tries to escape, yelling that "He's out of control!" while ordering the other ghosts to "Capture him!" Sue and Funky attempt to chase down Man-Pac, while Spunky attempts to get in front of him. Tim can be seen in the back of the lab, annoyed at the shenanigans occurring in the lab as he tries to mop the floors in peace. Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man have invaded the lab and watch the chaos unfold from a distance, as Pac-Man shouts "You imposter pac!" at his clone. A stasis tank can be seen nearby, containing what appears to be a clone of Ms. Pac-Man to compliment Man-Pac. The silhouette seems to belong of Pac-Mom. At the bottom of the flyer, the four maze layouts contained within the Man-Pac game are displayed, as text above them reads "Strange yet familiar mazes await... Prepare for mor Pac-Action!" The screenshots appear to be camera shots of a CRT monitor. At the very bottom of the flyer, in small white text are credits for the artists responsible for designing the flyer, and a disclaimer stating that Pac-Man is the property of Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc., and that Man-Pac is an unsanctioned, unofficial product that should not be sold.

The back half of a fictional flyer for Man-Pac, subtly advertising it as a conversion for a Pac-Man or Ms. Pac-Man arcade game. It explains the story and lore behind the game. There are character bios for each of the main characters, most notably the four main antagonists of the game (Sue, Funky, Spunky, and Tim), subtly hinting at how their new AI functions in-game. A bio for the titular character Man-Pac is also presence, as well as bios for Pac-Man and Kinky (a.k.a. Kinzo), who play a significant part in the story, but only appear in cutscenes. In the lower center is a detailing of the gameplay differences between Man-Pac and Ms. Pac-Man, alongside previews of the four new maze layouts included in the game. The screenshots appear to be camera shots of a CRT monitor or television playing the game, which appears to be an attempt at mimicking how 1980's-era flyers would display in-game graphics. At the bottom of the flyer is a detailing of the new main features added to Man-Pac Revision 2, such as a unique two-player character, extra additional lives, and "Man-Pac Minus", which serves as the Man-Pac equivalent to "Pac-Man Plus".
