There is something so serene about the empty Galaga soft lock where you just fly through space quietly after so much destruction.

Fun fact: while it is indeed impossible to beat level 256 in Pac-Man, if you somehow managed to beat level 256, it’ll return you in level 1, and the code of the fruit will restart, causing the game to revert back to normal

[crunchypickles]

For people wondering why a lot of these glitches start at level 256, 255 is the highest 8-bit integer, which is (2^8)-1. 256 is the first 9-bit integer, and it requires an extra bit the game doesn't have.

Thanks for explaining exactly what part of the game is glitching out.

3:08 - This actually made me chill... first there are dismembered parts just lying here and there, and, in the end, your character becomes one, and you cannot control him anymore, all combined with music suddenly disappearing... I can only imagine what a creepypasta fuel this was back in the day.

Pac-Man’s level 256 was so popular that it got its own game by the same guys who made crossy road

[PineGples]

2:01 something about the calming music, the game sending you to level 0, and then crashing shortly after is just sliiiightly unsettling to me

[L-di]

fix it felix jr is the only one here that has an actual end screen

[diacosiapentacontahex]

Mario Bros.'s kill screen almost seems like an ending. It rewards you for getting such a massive score by showering you in extra lives, then tells you the game is over. You won! It's almost kind of sweet.

[SuperLlama]

The Mario one is just like "So many lives! I'm invincible!" and then Mario just permadies.

[AndroidKitKat.]

4:09 Fun fact; the developers of the game noticed this and instead of fixing and forgetting about it, can you guess what they did? THEY GAVE IT ITS OWN WHOLE ASS GAME. No joke, the developers made the mobile game "PAC-MAN 256" for it, making it the only glitch to get its own official game. Why cant other game devs take after NAMCO?

[DavidRomigJr]

I like how they apparently made sure Donkey Kong properly rolls over from level 99 back to level 1 but you can never get that far due to the timer overflow bug on level 22.

[thiscateatspancakes]

I REALLY loved the fact you used arcade text and game thumbnails instead of voice, plus clear gameplay, just like the simple times!!!! Congrats! Awesome video <3 here's my sub to your channel, keep it up :D

[robiginal]

The maze in Ms. Pac-Man flipping upside-down is insane like why and how does that even happen

[XX-sptt]

0:58 One guy figured out to use the incomplete ladders to glitch to the top in time.

[rzrzrz]

I dunno why, these messed up sprites/letters makes me nervous and feels anxiety...

[RogerVers]

so when an arcade crashes, it has a seizure

[Randomalistic]

Great video!! Love that the information is easy to understand and the footage is high quality :]

[zoranradakovic]

Galga easy mode: uhh.. Why is there a big laser machine- *gets all information and soul erased*
