Pointless CC Trivia Thread

The "corrupted" version of SPIRALS is the original -- at some point before BOWEP Microsoft realized that it was pretty much unsolvable and took out the thin wall near the end. In Lynx TileWorld (and I supposed in Atari Lynx) the walkers sometimes pick a "bad" direction and don't move -- MS works differently making them much more aggressive.

Quote:In CC1's GRAIL (level 54), there are three ways to exit, using either a green, red, or yellow key. There is also a blue door, but no blue key exists on the level.
Quote:I had no idea.....
In Lynx, to reach the red door Chip needs to use a partial post, making this the first level utilizing the concept.

Just to clarify, the first WEP4 version was corrupt, but the BOWEP version was not. However, someone at some point mentioned in the past that they only had WEP4 and their version was not corrupt, so it's possible the change came very soon after the first release.

I can confirm this. My copy comes from WEP4 and it has the non-evil Spirals.

In the CC1 level, STRANGE MAZE, there is only one "removable" wall-acting thing: the chip sockets (and this could be advantaged for a better time).

No level 145 in Lynx CC, so there's really just 148 levels. In MSCC, it's credits for porting the Lynx CC to the MS version we know today. But, in Lynx, entering a password brings up a cool effect thing. Some consider that hidden easter egg the true Level 145 in Lynx, odd enough.

Walkers are the biggest jerks in MSCC, moreso then in lynx and I WILL ****ING BEAT UP WHOEVER THOUGHT THAT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO THE POINT I CAN DRINK THEIR BLOOD AND BE CONSIDERED THE NEW ****IN' DRACULA, *****!

...And I made a CC Tee in AC:NL.

There is more than one way to pick up the keys in Lesson 1 and still score the bold time.
