[TAS] PSX Pac-Man World by SFan & lapogne36 in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/4725M
TAS originally published on 2022-06-19
Pac-Man World is a 1999 video game for the PlayStation, released to coincide with the 20th anniversary, with the character Pac-Man going to a birthday party. It is a platform game played in a 3D environment that plays heavily into the history of the character; every non-boss level features a maze that plays by the rules of Pac-Man. Every level is littered with Pac-Dots, fruits and ghosts, much of the music is modified from early entries into the series.
SFan (tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/SFan) and lapogne36 (tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/l...) abuse various zig-zagging glitches in order to clear the game in record time. We recommend reading the authors' comments (tasvideos.org/7502S) for more details.

Hey everyone, I'm one of the TASers who worked on this. I strongly recommend reading the author notes before asking any questions, they may or may not answer those questions. I'm very happy to see this get published, this is a game that's super interesting in a TAS/Speedrun setting, I hope you guys enjoy it! PacAttack

It's always funny to see my saved data on my PS Vita with this game at a 116000%+ completion rate. No idea why that glitch happened

[@kkslayter]

@@AstralStriderZ You did a what %

[@nicthecat]

finally a pacman world video can be on this channel

[@stewartosei1213]

Can you do a 100% run?

[@nicthecat]

@@AstralStriderZ that also happens to me on the ps vita

[@DarkFrozenDepths]

Toc-Man: I have your friends and family. Now come and face me Pac-Man!
Pac-Man: I'll be there and take you down in 20 mins.
Toc-Man: But first you'll have to- Wait, WHAT?!

[@sarcasticguy4311]

The speedrun is faster than the texture pop-in.

[@DopolMile]

Pacman instantly looking at the camera after rescuing someone somehow is spooky af

[@neurogabu]

Aw shit, here comes Pac-Man!

[@user-nu7no7fu2p]

summary of this speedrun: pacman shaked himself and cleared game subsequently

[@themcc1879]

Sega: Gotta go fast!
Namco: Hold my beer....

[@thatelephant]

It was so funny to watch the camera trying to catch up with you. Amazing run!

[@thenate5367]

Something was in that Power Pellet

[@KimeramonRocks]

"its so unfair, nobody loves a ghost" said the ghost before pack man executes him

[@deathblowringo4168]

That was Orson who piloted the Toc-Man robot.

[@warmCabin]

I can't believe this is out! For years all I've seen is a WIP with maybe 5 levels.
I love the brief moments where it's beholden to normal game rules!

[@nicthecat]

sky also did a test tas on this game on 2013 but it doesnt have sound

[@Udriel]

THANKS GOD FINALLY A TAS FROM THIS GAME

[@angeredgoose7552]

me running from the cops after shitting in the display urinals

[@GameXenoZero64]

This is the kind of TAS we cannot ignore

[@St4rDustSpirit]

1:25 I died laughing for about 5 minutes because of this.

[@ivanfrancoextraschannel2005]

Those glitched camera levels, though...

[@Felipehc188]

Seeing Spin Dizzy get destroyed like this is pure bliss!

[@gregnerok]

long time coming. this TAS is insane

[@reesecates8620]

"Ooh I've waited a long time for this!"

[@LeoMK01]

Didn't expect such movement on the PS version.
Excellent work

[@deathblowringo4168]

I'm suprised to see a TAS of the original PSX version.
And I didn't know alternating back and forth every frame would increase Pac-Man's speed.

[@cx_editztv7869]

It really is wild seeing my childhood levels that frustrated me destroyed in seconds

[@subwaymanYT]

I used to have this game as a kid.

[@doko3000]

Lapogne36's TAS' are so fun to watch! (and congrats for SFan too for working on this one).
Cheers!

[@nicthecat]

sfan did the old tas (not sky test tas) alone before lapogne36 and he worked on this

[@LowTonin]

Wahoo has a new rival. #terminalmontage

[@GamerGee]

The left right “cornholio” face jumps give so much speed he beats the PSX rendering of the stages ahead. Lol

[@LuisMiHerrero]

Wow..this is crazy

[@Hau5test]

Wobble around the world

[@danny_cookie]

Sub 20! Congratulations!

[@Sheimiko]

That was impressive.

[@amandawashington4239]

[@reesecates8620]

A.K.A "Pacman has a seizure: The Game"

[@undetected2088]

What in the world man ?! 🤣

JUMPSCARE ⚠️ 15:47

[@Udriel]

any chance of 100% tas?

[@SFants]

It depends on how I feel once I complete the All Levels TAS and if I'm willing to deal with 100%ing Down the Tubes, all I can say right now is: maybe

[@e-le287]
