'''Chip's Challenge 1''', or CC1 for short, is the original [[level set]] released on the [[Lynx|Atari Lynx]] in 1989, Windows Entertainment Pack 4 (WEP4) in 1992, and later with the Best of Windows Entertainment Pack (BOWEP) in 1994. It consists of 149 levels (148 in the Lynx version) which [[Chip]] must complete. | '''Chip's Challenge 1''', or CC1 for short, is the original [[level set]] released on the [[Lynx|Atari Lynx]] in 1989, Windows Entertainment Pack 4 (WEP4) in 1992, and later with the Best of Windows Entertainment Pack (BOWEP) in 1994.

As these were the first Chip's Challenge levels, they begin by introducing the functions of the [[tile]]s in the [[lesson level]]s, then tie them together in [[Nuts and Bolts]], and add new elements only sparingly from then on out. There are very few levels of high difficulty in CC1 compared to [[CCLP2]] or [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 3|CCLP3]], as knowledge of puzzle design and game mechanics were comparatively primitive. | As these were the first Chip's Challenge levels, they begin by introducing the functions of the [[tile]]s in the [[lesson level]]s, then tie them together in [[Nuts and Bolts]], and add new elements only sparingly from then on out.

The levels were designed in approximately three parts: 1/3 of them by [[Chuck Sommerville]], another third by a professional puzzle designer known as Bill Darrah, and the rest by Chuck's team of programmers and playtesters: | The levels were designed in approximately three parts: 1/3 of them by [[Chuck Sommerville]], another third by a professional puzzle designer known as Bill Darrah, and the rest by Chuck's team of programmers and playtesters: | ||
