In 2010, a new version of Tile World (TW2) was released along [[CCLP3]] by [[Madhav Shanbhag]]. It included [[CCX]] file support and a redesigned interface. Despite becoming more popular than TW1 <ref>http://cczone.invisionzone.com/index.php?/topic/921-chipsexe-tile-world-or-tile-world-2/</ref>, it faced ocasional criticism, as it did not show passwords and had a few minor OS-specific annoyances. | In 2010, a new version of Tile World (TW2) was released along [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 3|CCLP3]] by [[Madhav Shanbhag]].

On March 27 2014, Tile World 2.1 was released one day before [[CCLP1]]. It was made by [[Eric Schmidt]] with assistance from Madhav Shanbhag. It fixed most of the above issues and added the possibility to change death messages, among other things. It also fixed a few important ruleset glitches that had existed for a long time in both TW1 and TW2. | On March 27 2014, Tile World 2.1 was released one day before [[Chip's Challenge Level Pack 1|CCLP1]].

Tile World has two rulesets intended to emulate two different implementations of Chip's Challenge: the MS ruleset and the [[Lynx]] ruleset. Many [[glitch]]es from the Microsoft implementation are emulated into Tile World, in order for scores obtained from Tile World to be consistent with that implementation. The Lynx and MS rulesets also have a variety of subtle differences in how monsters and other game elements work, which are readable at [[Lynx]]. For instance, in the original Lynx version, [[fire]] is an [[acting wall]] to everything but [[fireball]]s; in the MS version, it only stops [[bug]]s and [[walker]]s. | Tile World has two rulesets intended to emulate two different implementations of Chip's Challenge: the MS ruleset and the [[Lynx ruleset|Lynx]] ruleset.
