Melinda has sought to expand her Clubhouse beyond the original 148 levels ever since Chip McCallahan finished them all back in Chip's Challenge. Now she is enlisting prospective Bit Busters to make new levels! What do you say? This is a Chip's Challenge level making event! Create one or more levels and submit them here as a level set! Tile World is a pretty good engine recreation of Chip's Challenge (it even emulates some, but not all bugs found in the Microsoft game). It includes a facility for easily adding and playing custom levels. For legal reasons, the original levels (dubbed CC1) are not included, but there is an unofficial tutorial and a myriad of freely downloadable custom level sets to help you become familiar with the game's rules. Here is a list of editors available for making levels: CCEdit - the new version is cross-platform. Old version is Win32-based but runs on Wine. Chip's Challenge Level Designer - needs .NET Runtime. The levels themselves are stored in .dat files. Multiple levels can be placed inside a .dat file, so feel free to make as many or as few levels as you'd like. Editing tips: - Get a feel for how all the objects and tiles interact with one another. Play some existing Chip's Challenge levels, or refer to the Chip's Challenge Wiki's list of tiles as a reference. GO BIT BUSTERS! | ||

The Klik of the Month Klub meets right here on this very website on the third Saturday of every month at 4pm Pacific Time (taking daylight savings into consideration) for a two hour Klik & Play Showdown. Everyone who participates gets two hours to create something from scratch in Klik & Play. Abusing the stock objects is encouraged. If you really loathe Klik & Play you can use whatever game development platform you want. Two hours is a pretty tight time limit, though, so choose wisely! Klik & Play is absolutely free to download, and learning it takes minutes, so everyone can get in on the action. Want to talk to your fellow Klikwreckers? Join us on IRC -- server irc.freenode.net, channel #glorioustrainwrecks. We've also got a Mumble voice chat server -- just connect to glorioustrainwrecks.com using Mumble and you can talk to us like real human beings! Join the mayhem! After you've made your game, you should upload it here! For more information, check out the KotM N00B FAQ. Sign up using the "Sign Up" tab above if you want to get reminded by email the day before the klikkening begins! | ||
