It was a public domain game, I believe its on 17 Bits "phase four" CD Rom. It's called "Charlie Chatterbox" it's disk number 3275.

If anyone has this CD Rom could they send me the executable? I'd like to see just how bad it was!!

I know its a long-shot but I'd really enjoy playing it again after all the hours I put into it.

Many thanks
Gaz

Here it is (apparently - haven't checked the file myself).  The description is - "Collect all the fruit,like dugger, shareware!"

Doing a search for:

"Charlie Chatterbox" Amiga

on google threw up this page.  After a little bit of investigating (going to cd.textfiles.com and looking through the folders) the game appears to be on that disk image.

If you look at the games.guide for that CD and search for Charlie Chatterbox, you'll see that it's meant to be in that particular image.

To unpack the file you'll need DMS from Aminet.  Someone else can tell you the command line instructions for that - it's been absolutely donkey's since I used it.

Oh, and welcome to the forums, help yourself to a  :pint:, don't mind all the :griping:, enjoy all the :roflmao: and stay a while and go :crazy: like the rest of us!

Runs OK on WinUAE - under a basic A1200 ('020/AGA/2Mb chip) configuration.

Very much like Splat! on the ZX Spectrum - a maze game where the maze moves around you.

Seems OK and nothing to be ashamed of!!!
