Chuckie Apple Implementation Challenge
Implementation Challenge
Having been hidden in an attic for over 20 years, we're as keen as anyone to actually play Chuckie Apple. To that end,
we thought we'd reward any coder willing to take on the challenge of converting the design
into a finished, playable game. There is no time limit for entries to each of three categories - it's first come,
first serve. In the unlikely event that multiple entries are submitted at the same time, our own panel of judges will
compare and declare the winner.
Categories:
1) BBC Micro Model B
2) Spectrum 48K
3) Modern PC (preferably cross-platform but Win32 minimum) - Winner announced!

Prizes
There are no large sponsors behind this site, so the prize is a little more unique. The winner of each category will receive a copy of The Chuckie Egg Professional's Resource Kit Bootable CD and an original Spectrum release cassette personally signed by the original author, Nigel! Send us an email with a link to your entry. Note that although our categories cover the most popular platforms, submissions from other platforms will also be considered for a prize.

Tom Walker's abandoned Windows version of Chuckie Apple
Here are a couple of screenshots of a Windows attempt at Chuckie Apple started by Tom Walker.
"The first is what the game actually shows when you run it. As you can see, there's not much game there yet... The second is cropped + edited to show what the game might _actually_ look like!"
Sadly, Tom has had to side-line the project due to other commitments. Looks cool, tho!
