Overall, which is the best official release of Chuckie Egg?
A very subjective question. In the whole BBC 32K vs. SPECTRUM 48K debate that’s been raging for the last twenty years, passions run high. Looking objectively, without bias to any preferred platform and after an exhaustive analysis of the alternatives, it is not uncommon for the Chuckie Egg professional to surprise both camps in the holy war and stand firmly with the lesser known AMSTRAD release, which combines the speed and playability of the BBC 32K version with the more colourful SPECTRUM 48K graphics, albeit at the expense of some slight vertical squashing. Of course, if you’re willing to accept unofficial hacks and upgrades to the original codebase, the emergence of the BBC 32K Extra Colours Loader modification arguably brings the flag firmly back into the BBC 32K camp.
