| − | '''Chip's Challenge Level Pack 2''', commonly called '''CCLP2''', is the first official expansion [[Level set|pack]] (not sequel) for [[Chip's Challenge]]. It contains 149 more levels and was assembled by Anders Kaseorg and Dale Bryan, with the levels being taken from the many [[custom level set]]s available. It was released on February 9, 2002, and was followed by [[CCLP3]] 8 years later. |
||
| − | |||
| − | == History == |
||
| − | After [[Chip's Challenge 1]] was released, its creator, [[Chuck Sommerville]], sought to make a true sequel, known as [[Chip's Challenge 2]] (CC2). The game was completed; however, due to copyright issues unveiled in 2002{{fact}}, it was believed that it could never be released. (The game would finally see a release in May 2015.) |
||
| − | |||
| − | This set was effectively created as a 'replacement' for CC2 at the time, using CC1's engine and mechanics. Due to the complex circumstances surrounding it, CC2 and CCLP2 are often mistaken for each other. |
||
| − | |||
| − | == Characteristics == |
||
| − | Among all of Chip's Challenge's level packs, CCLP2 is above all known for its use of [[invalid tile]]s, often related to very crude [[cook]]s. For example, [[Block Away!]] uses a [[lock]] pyramid in front of the [[exit]] with only one safe path through it, which is complicated even further because one of the [[key]]s is not used in the correct path. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Solving similar puzzles such as [[Blocked Trap]] will reveal that the default for most CCLP2 invalid tile puzzles, and indeed ''any'' such puzzle in order to adhere to the "rule of 90/10", is that the resources given to Chip will hint as to the solution and that the first vestiges of the solution will hint as to the remainder of it. Discovering one safe lock in Blocked Trap will logically lead to a continuous trek north through ''all'' the remaining safe locks; such devices are the reasoning why, even with such devious puzzles, CCLP2 remains an easier set than [[CCLP3]].{{fact}} |
||
| − | |||
| − | More common [[glitch]]es such as the [[Controller and Boss Glitch]] are generally absent from CCLP2 except in the earliest custom level sets. However, at least two levels, [[Dangers of Fire and Beasts]] and [[Trapped]], remain [[bust]]ed under this glitch, as they were developed before resources (including this wiki) on Chip's Challenge and its occasional coding flaws. |
||
| − | |||
| − | == Reception == |
||
| − | At the original CCZone, a poll out of 13 voters yielded a 3.85/5 star rating, placing CCLP2 as the least favorite official set to date. Its main improvement over CC1 was more diverse, less overly homogenous levels, with [[John Lewis]] praising its [[Sokoban level]]s for being "a bit more interesting than [[On the Rocks]] or [[Pain]]." |
||
| − | |||
| − | Frequent complaints included the use of invalid tiles, with [[Mike Lask]] thereby downgrading the levelset to a 4/5, and occasional advanced tricks such as [[After the Rainstorm]] and its [[ram]] that John branded as "just a bit mean for some players." Zero.prophet also observed that there are "many levels in CCLP2 that shouldn't have made the cut," which major CCLP3 staff and community leaders such as [[Tyler Sontag]] also agreed to. [[rockdet|Rock Généreux]], while in obvious assent with this reasoning, noted that the set contained only "10 really bad levels max" and should be respected for its "extremely good" compositions such as [[Cloner's Maze]]. |
