I’d be damned if it has to do something with the power pellets being present. 😆 I’m going to try and see if it works on Spiral Maze (Since as far as my testing, I’ve done it on Classic).
It plays the animation even with the fruit being present, so this is still puzzling.
Edit: I cleared it with most of the pellets on screen (Including the Power Pellet), without the fruit on screen, most of the mini-ghosts trailing behind the Ghost Gals, and the bomb being on screen. Does not trigger the Game Over glitch. 🤨
… Is it lives related? (Ex: Win if you’re at 1 life remaining) I’m not too sure.
Probably because in the video, it was before the maze pattern looped back at the beginning (Ex: At classic maze, three bombs with no power pellets are the last round until it loop back at the first round)
Because when I tried it before it looped to the start, it never trigger the game over glitch no matter how many attempts I tried with different variations (Ex: 1 - 3 Lives, Mini-ghosts, no mini-ghosts, different clothes state, and how many mini-pellets, fruit, or power pellets are in the screen).
… Until I collected the fruit at the three bombs area, which loop back at the first pattern, then collect the red pellet and the Game over glitch triggers consistently.
