Coco Loco is a maze game developed by Petaco S. A. and released for arcades in 1981. The game is extremely-close clone of Pac-Man. Down to the ghost, Pac-Man, and an almost identical maze and attract mode.
Overview[]
The game plays very similarly to Pac-Man. You control Come Cocos (Ghost Eater) as you eat all the pellets on screen while avoiding the ghosts. You can also collect fruit and vitamins that allow you to eat the ghosts for more points. Unlike the original Pac-Man, there's also a button which speeds up Come Cocos. Each "Fase" in this game has a timer and gives you a certain amount of bonus points depending on how long it took you to complete it. After each round, an intermission plays that shows you the score values of each item and ghosts. Every level you complete, a new ghost is added.
Revisional Differences[]
There are multiple versions of this game in MAME which have somewhat major differences from each other for only being different revisions
Set 1[]
The original version of the game. Up to 4 players can play (though by taking turns). The game is in Spanish.
Set 2[]
A later version of the game which is English. And seemingly has an attempt on music during gameplay.
Set 3[]
Only up to 2 players are selectable which seems to be because of a "2 Player Mode" being added. Though you control both Come Cocos with the same joystick and the second player can't speed up. This is potentially an issue within MAME itself.
