ChipWits is a programming game that I co-developed with Mike Johnston in 1984. Players use an iconic language called IBOL to program robots for a variety of missions.
It did very well in '84 - sold 20k copies and was well reviewed. We’ve updated graphics and are adding tutorial missions.
Windows Installer 8 meg
System Requirements: Medium-horsepower Windows 2000/XP/Vista machine. It’s written in Flex/ActionScript 3 and packaged with MDM Zinc.
Feedback wanted: Wring the game out and let me know what you think of it at every level - graphics, interface, playability… Since it’s a programming game I expect to hear some strong opinions from kirupaForum members.

Known bugs
Where the game is now: We are adding tutorial missions, expanding the help, tweaking animation, fonts, sound FX, high score keeping, and adding a number of Mini Missions.
Please enter our contest. Send in your ChipWit - you don’t have to have a registered copy. The ChipWit that scores the highest in the Doom Rooms mission earns its creator glory and a t-shirt.
This is a trial version that let’s you run the game 10 times and then disables saving ChipWits - you can still play.
Hope you enjoy it.
Gamely,
