There have been some short conversations about the first CC2 community pack on the Chip's Challenge Discord, mostly involving me complaining about how lackluster the main game is and how a community pack would be 10 times better. But before we even begin opening submissions, there are a few opinions I'd like to get from the community about the structure of the set and what should and shouldn't be allowed. Here are my questions, I'll post my own thoughts in a reply soon.
What should the set be named?
How many levels?
Allow levels with CC1 boot rules?
Consistent viewport size (9x9 or 10x10)?
Map size limit? Namely, should the 40x40 limit from the CC2 main game be retained?
Should any tiles or techniques be banned? Some "unsupported" tiles are innocuous, like the zero-directional block or the blank "no" sign, but hex editing can lead to weird and wild tiles, as seen in TSAlpha's Enter the Void. There also are some non-obvious techniques, like block slapping and the gimmicks in TSAlpha's Great Job CC2! levels, that may not be well-suited for an official pack.
Well, it's finally here. The sequel to CCLP1: Blobs Edition you've all been waiting for has arrived.
A long time ago, Josh (Flareon350) released a set called CC1: Blobs Edition, as a joke. The premise was that the levels were the exact same as the original CHIPS.DAT, but every monster was replaced with a blob. Some other changes were made as well to make the levels solvable or easier to complete.
Following this, Michael Warner released CCLP2: Blobs Edition, following the same trend. Years later, Jeffrey Bardon released CCLP1: Blobs Edition after its release in 2014. Everyone in the CC community realized CCLP3: Blobs Edition would require insane amounts of luck to complete levels such as You Can't Teach an Old Frog New Tricks, and thus, there was no one to assemble such a set.
Yet despite CCLP4's release, it still hadn't received its very own Blobs Edition set... until now.
PLEASE NOTE!!!
Not all levels in this set are solvable! Unlike previous Blobs Edition sets, this one has absolutely no changes made to level design other than the fact that all monsters are blobs. Some levels are unsolvable, some are majorly busted, and some require insane amounts of luck to complete. With that said, play at your own risk.
All monsters should be replaced with blobs. If I missed a few, please let me know via the CCBBC Discord group.
