HISTORY:   |   1991-1995   |   1996-1998   |   INSIGHT HOME


The CHAMPgames Fan Page will be a work in progress and I will perform a frequent update on this site with any further acquired information on CHAMP games. I'm looking for the older CHAMPgames Asteroids (1994), Ms. Pacman, and Galaxian (1994). Information about shareware and/or regular versions are welcome.

1991, 1992
John W. Champeau, founder of CHAMProgramming, programmed "Last Defense" (1991). Last Defense was a Missile Command variation in EGA (16 color) graphics and was one of his first games ever. Also he designed and programmed CHAMP Centipede (1992), written in EGA graphics too. Both games were never published.

1993
CHAMP Pac-Maniac was designed and programmed by CHAMProgramming from the time period covering 2/93 to 4/93. Atari 800 fans will recognize the graphics and game play from the 1983 version of the game. The program-code was written using Borland C++ (though the code is strictly C), the graphic functions are written in assembler. System requirements: PC 8 MHz or better, DOS, VGA graphics and 256K of free conventional memory. Supports 1 or 2 joysticks, mouse and the PC speaker.

CHAMP Ms. Pacman was released. Ms. Pacman is based on the Bally/Midway classic arcade game. This PC version was developed and programmed by CHAMProgramming. It is in no way intended to presented as an original work, but merely as the IBM version of the coin-op game. Almost 6 months of work was put into this version to reproduce not only the look but the feel of arcade game. Requirements: 386 PC or better, DOS, VGA graphics or better. Joystick and mouse optional.
