Pac-Man World Re-Pac 100% No Damage/Flutter Jump/Pac Dot Attack - 3-1: Space Race
Rules of this challenge:
-100% collectible items obtained (non-key Fruit is fully optional, as is anything simply relating to scoring)
-No Damage taken, as usual
-Flutter Jump (Hang In Mid-Air) and Pac-Dot Attack are prohibited other than for demonstration
-Magic Key may not be used to circumvent gameplay (shouldn't come into play, though)
The difficulty is starting to get going via Space Race, the first level of the Space Area and also a level that uses rhyming in its name instead of alliteration. Rev Roll jumps are starting to become a concern, Purple Aliens or Shockers or whatever they're called can be scary to maneuver around with their spinning electrical blades, and laser traps are plentiful and obstructing to the point of even causing problems in the Maze. The Ghosts also have moments of being worrisome to deal with as well, but we do get past.
Backtracking gets involved plenty in PMWRP, and we can see that it can be hit-or-miss. The first case here does involve a switch to allow for the backtracking, so it's easy to remember. However, the second case just involves a door and a Fruit that is both hard to see against the terrain and not easy to discern from Pac Dots, though mercifully, there was no lock-out of managing this until far enough in for that becomes an issue, as I made use of and it helps that enemies don't respawn. The third one was thankfully easy to see: multiple places to cover in a given area. So as a result, backtracking can be okay as long as the design doesn't make messy.
