'''Thanks to...''' (spelled in lowercase; the only level in this set to be as such) is the 145th level in [[Chip's Challenge 1]]. It is one of the [[secret level]]s, as well as a [[Credits level]], in the Microsoft version of CC1 that can only be found by typing in its password; fortunately, it requires absolutely no effort to complete. The significance is that the level is a commemorative, thanking the people who converted the game from the original [[Lynx Ruleset|Lynx]] version to the popular [[MS Ruleset|MS]] version. | |||
Ed H. is probably the artist Ed Halley; the other three names are not known. The ''TONY'' mentioned in the password could be surnamed Garcia or Krueger, and is generally assumed to be the former. Tony Krueger was the MS version's author, which is mentioned along with Ed Halley's name in the ''About Chip's Challenge'' popup accessible from the ''Help'' menu. | |||
To complete the level, slide on the [[ice]] and play between the DOUG and T. to reach [[fire boots]] and then down to the exit on [31, 31] (which has a "P.S." hint next to it), or use the [[AVI]] solution to win in 8 seconds, but risking Chip's life. The probability of the optimal solution's success is 9/1024: three random [[force floor]]s must all move Chip D, and the other two must face any direction but D so Chip can override them. | |||

* | * If the player carefully looks in an earlier [[level editor]] or uses the newer [[CCLD]], a map such as the one shown above reveals that there are five [[ice]] spaces under other ice spaces, which is illegal in Lynx; however, this level doesn't appear in the Atari Lynx version of the game. They can be found on the [[grid]] at coordinates [0, 25], [5, 26], [10, 27], [19, 28] and [27, 29]. | ||
* In | * In the Lynx version, this level does not exist; however, it comes with its own surprise: entering the password <tt>MAND</tt> will bring up a fractal generator. In the original Lynx version, Cake Walk was simply level 145, but in [[Tile World]]'s Lynx version, a hole is left in that slot and the Mandelbrot fractal is not shown either. | ||
