On Chip's Challenge, you know the teleporters? Well, I tried them out on the editor yesterday and noticed that they act different on both the Microsoft and Lynx versions of the games. I did a teleporter-1 ice tile-teleporter pattern in loads of rows, and the Microsoft version did the teleporters correctly by making a pink ball go through them one by one downwards facing east, but on the Lynx version it just kept going through the same row of teleporters over and over again! What's up with that?

Anyone remember this old time classic on the PC? RollerCoaster Tycoon was probably the game I spent most of the time playing on the PC. I loved how addicting this game was making rollercoasters, killing guests off by crashing rides, and making them suffer from not being able to go to the toilet. Both hilarious and awesome, and the 3D version was never as good but still an ok, but quite buggy game back then.

What's the best program or way to get a whole view of a level on Chip's Challenge? I really want to know so I can preview my levels on CC Zone. I don't have Mapmaker anymore and it wouldn't work on a 64 bit machine. How do you guys do the screenshots like the ones in the gallery?

What do you use to record your Chip's Challenge footage with? I usually just use Chipcap for level solutions, but for Let's Play videos I like to have the sound of the game in the background so I record with CamStudio or Hypercam for sound included. What is your preference on this?

Do you think there are some spirits or ghosts out there in our world? If so, have you ever seen a ghost or thought you saw one or couldn't explain the situation?

File category: CC1 Levelsets


JacquesS2, the levelset which I'm currently working on. Have fun,

About 30% of the levels are Lynx compatible. But don't worry, JacquesS3 will be fully Lynx compatible once I finish JacquesS2.

Yes, there are invalid tiles, but fear not. Nothing nasty here, like buried traps. The number of invalid tiles per level decreases as the set goes along. And there are only 4 hot blocks in the entire set (but for some, that's four too many! )

What is your average download speed when you're downloading a file?

I usually got 45,0 KB/s, sometimes hit 50 KB/s.

Anyone else generally turned off by these? I appreciate the idea of distractions and diversions ("Mouth Watering" is one of my favorite CCLP3 levels; actually, it's downright hilarious), but oftentimes cluttered levels are simply not very fun to play through. One of the things that made the original CC great (imvho) was that for as devilish as the puzzles sometimes got, they were almost always clean and elegant. You almost always had a general idea of what you were trying to accomplish (even if the specific way to do this required a bit more thought). In CCLP2 and a few levels in CCLP3, the approach seems to be "let's fill up the playing area with as much stuff as possible."

CC Zone now officially has a YouTube channel! This is where CC Zone competition entries and other Chip's Challenge Zone related material will go.
