Show HN: Chip's Challenge (1992), rebuilt for the web

kenblum1 pts0 comments

Author here. Remember Chip s Challenge? The 1992 Windows one from the Microsoft Entertainment Pack. I wanted to play it again so I ported it to the browser. Well, Claude did. I was too lazy to write the code, so I made a rule that I wouldn t write any and just bossed it around.Between us we ve solved 80 of the 149 levels. It didn t come free: plenty I had to hand-hold or play through myself, and for the nasty ones I had Claude build a solver that watches YouTube speedruns and rebuilds the moves frame by frame (oddly satisfying to watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wndAf4EXNc).It also built a full level editor (https://claudes-challenge.vercel.app/?level=1#editor) and a replay viewer to watch the solved levels back (https://claudes-challenge.vercel.app/replay.html).Code: https://github.com/blumk/claudes-challengeObligatory IP note: this is someone else s game. I m assuming it s effectively abandonware but I honestly don t know, so the site might have to come down at some point. The repo is stripped of all the original art and assets, code only.
