Here is a much better screenshot of this. I put a slight key delay in and I made it so your current position is a gray square (the other gray squares act like walls).

Nice, also the executable seems kinda small so far. I wonder how large it will be once finished. Do you think it might be the same size as the TI-84+ version (if we do not take sprite data into account)?

Well, that is kinda  small because (1) There is almost nothing to the actual game engine (it only checks if you hit a wall or not)  This will be much more complex when I add more things (2) I have not done anything regarding things like monsters (these could pose a challenge to me) (3) that "level" is only a 15x15 array.  The actual levels are much larger.

I have no idea how large this will be when finished.

Ah ok I was wondering mostly due to the levels. I think calc84maniac simply converted them automatically or used them as they are (which is why the game was finished so fast if I remember), but I don't know if they used some sort of compression.

Here is a nice reference for the Chip's Challenge level format: http://www.seasip.demon.co.uk/ccfile.html

I just included the literal data from the CHIPS.DAT file and parsed it.

This is being programmed in C.  I have no idea how large this program will be, as I have just barley started it.

This time, there is an update, but, just to keep the record:  The Game, The Game, The Game! :P

Do I see animated tiles?  It is a kinda poor implementation of this, but it is a start! ;D
