The RISC OS conversion of the classic BBC game has now been updated to work on the Iyonix and possibly on other 32 bit machines as well. Alan Buckley has updated the game to work with the higher resolution screen modes on the Iyonix as well as adding the option to use outline fonts for the text. This version will also run on older Acorn hardware as well but requires RISC OS 3.6 or above. Chuckie Egg was converted to RISC OS directly from the BBC game of the same name. The conversion process takes the original BBC game code and converts each processor instruction to a comparable routine under RISC OS. This means that instead of having to rewrite the game from scratch and trying to get everything the same, I now have an exact conversion that looks, plays and feels the same as the original. Please download the RISC OS version of Chuckie Egg from http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/mjfoot under RISC OS Software.
Enjoy,
