Where can I get Chuckie Egg 1

[Zyphon]

Hi Guys,

Is anyone able to upload Chuckie Egg1 for the Amiga to the Zone for me please? I wouldn't ask but I have tried to buy this game on eBay but have not come across it and I can't even find a website to download it from as it seems really rare!

I have the original game for my Acorn Electon, C64 and ZX Spectrum and I would like to play the Amiga version for a comparison.

I would be really grateful if someone could help me out and upload to The Zone. Believe me if I could buy the original I would but it just isn't there to buy.

Thanks.

I found the game eventually thanks to the excellent 'Hall of Light'. Now I need to test it on my A1200 to see if it works.

Glad you found it, if I had seen the post before I'd have zoned it...

Guessing you have a standard 2mb A1200? Have you tried WHDLoad? Many of the 1 disk classics work on a standard A1200 with 2mb.

Thanks for your help Steve, Exotica was the only site I could find this game on. I managed to get on to BTTR ftp server but that is a nightmare to navigate and I couldn't find the games folder on there.

I have an A1200 with 2MB and an accelerator card with 32MB of fast RAM. I didn't think to try WHDLoad, I downloaded it from there also as a backup as per your suggestion. I would like to install it on my HDD so it may be useful.

Thanks again for all your help.

I wonder how HOL was a help here to find the game Just curious. Anyway, it's always worth to have a look at the compilation disks of TOSEC aswell. On the EAB file server folder 'TOSEC/Compilations/Games' for example (Ikari & GBh - Captain Fizz & Chuckie Egg (1989)(GBH - Ikari).zip).

@Zyphon,

Glad I could help

Don't know if you are aware, you can get the pre installed WHDLoad games here:

Hi TCD, I did a search in HOL for Chuckie Egg and then clicked on the 'Weblink' tab and there I found the link to Exotica and I downloaded it from there.

Lol, this heat must be getting to my brain. I completely forgot about the EAB server. That would have been my first port of call. Thanks for reminding me.

Thanks for the link Steve, I have now downloaded the WHDLoad version also. To be honest I think I am going to register over at WHDLoad as they do a sterling job in getting all those games to install onto a HDD.

Ah, didn't know Exotica had the download Nice one indeed.
Go for the WHDLoad install of course. Perect fit for your setup and well worth the money

As TCD says, with your system being perfect for WHDLoad its well worth it =)

Enjoy,

Steve.
