'''Island Beginnings''' is the 1st level in [[Chip's Challenge 2 Level Pack 1]]. Being the first level in a fan-created [[level set]], Island Beginnings aims to serve as more or less a refresher on the more basic rules of [[Chip's Challenge 2]]. Of course, being in a community level pack, many players are already familiar with the basic rules; a more experienced player-base may also find themselves searching to break free from the level's normal boundaries in search of tantalizing [[bonus flag]]s. Beyond just being a tutorial level, Island Beginnings and its opportunity for bonus flags serves as a prime example of how a level can completely change depending on the mindset of who is playing it.
'''Island Beginnings''' is the 1st level in [[Chip's Challenge 2 Level Pack 1]]. It was created by [[Joshua Bone]]. This level uses the [[Walls Of level|wall configuration]] from [[Invincible Champion]].
 
== Overview ==
Many elements re-introduced in this first level are simple topics first introduced in the [[lesson level]]s from the [[Chip's Challenge 1|first game]]; including the [[computer chip]]s that must be collected to open the cosmic [[socket|chip socket]], [[keys]] and locked [[door]]s, deadly [[monster]]s, [[block|dirt block]]s and how they interact with [[water]], [[recessed wall]]s that spring up from the floor, and green [[toggle wall]]s that flip at the press of a [[green button]]. Some elements new to Chip's Challenge 2 do get their time in the spotlight here, however; such as the green [[toggle chip]]s that change between green bombs and green chips with each green button press (alongside the green toggle doors - the green button changes the state of both), [[railroad|railroad track]]s that lock the movement of things riding them along specific pathways, and the rotating [[swivel door]]s that rotate when things push on them.
 
=== Bonus flags ===
For curious players, there are also [[bonus flag]]s to be discovered; in the small area with rotating swivel doors, two yellow 1000 point flags can be observed on a distant island. If one wishes to reach this area, players must go against their instincts in the previous recessed wall puzzle and take only one computer chip, thus making it impossible to collect all three, but also making it possible to pass through the area a second time. Coming up on the small puzzle with two dirt blocks, the first dirt block must be pushed down instead of up; and this is where the second recessed wall path comes into play, making it possible to approach the blocks from the right side and move them down the railroad path to the top of the level. There, both blocks can be used to make a bridge to the outside perimeter of the level, and just to the right there is a pair of [[flippers]] which can be used to swim all around the map to the island where the bonus flags are hidden. An extra computer chip is also provided to make up for the one left behind in the recessed walls, allowing Chip to take the 2,000 bonus points with him to the [[exit|exit square]].

== Trivia ==
* One of the leaks released in the months leading up to the release of CC2LP1 was the total count of "[[Walls Of level]]s" that would appear in the set re-using wall configurations from previous official and community-produced level packs (although the leak did not specifically name any levels). Island Beginnings is one of 38<ref>[[Tyler Sontag|Sontag, Tyler]]. [https://bitbusters.club/cc2lp1/ Chip's Challenge 2 Level Pack 1 home] (''bitbusters.club'')."38 levels use the "[[Walls Of level|Walls of]]" official levels." Retrieved 22 Nov 2020.</ref> such levels to appear; specifically, it re-uses the wall configuration from the 77th level of Chip's Challenge 1, [[Invincible Champion]]. The very similar wall pattern of CC1's level 84, [[Wars]], is also re-used [[Of the Roses|later in CC2LP1]].
