Some Pac-Man trivia, mostly with graphics.
*Near the top of the maze, the large rectangular walls are not solid, but rather hollow, as proven by altering the palette of the maze walls. By default, they appear to be solid as both the background and maze interior colors are identical, and because of this, wall tiles without boundaries were never inserted into the game.
Certain bootleg versions of Pac-Man, such as JoyMan and the Galaxian hardware version show this in full detail.

*In the second of the three intermissions, when Blinky's coat is ripped off, you can see Blinky's eyes temporally change from their standard blue to black. This is to allow the game to draw Blinky's foot with a proper skin color, as each sprite could only have four colors, including a transparent (black) color.
