What a great game... I think it came with windows 95 or something.
If there are any other jezzball-heads out there- try and beat this score!
2,181,669
Did jezzball ever come out for a handheld or anything?
just makes me wonder, since chips challenge did.
oh well!

Yeah I still play jezzball. My best score was only 120,948 though. My cousin and my dad can do better.
What system did chip's challenge come out on?

Ah Jezzball love that game. Unfortunately the PC I have the game on hasn't been booting up lately :( Oh well I'm sure I can fix it.
If I'm not mistaken Chips Challenge came out on the Lynx and maybe some others to.

Well, I just played about 10 times, and my high score is 33,821.
I can't grasp the timing necessary to figure out exactly where I should start the dividers.

I've got a version on my TI-85 calculator, and another on my cell phone. Can't say I've ever played the WIN95 version.

no problem I used to play those games on my grandmom's comp which was a windows 3.1, then when I got her computer since she got a newer one I played all the games on it.................... then one day the computer crashed and then I could not play those games till 4 years later (2001) when I got a
new computer then I got the CD copy of those games from my uncle and I was happy again LOL !!!!
but when I was looking for the new CCLP2 (Chips Challenge Level Pack 2)
on a CC website I found links on the games so I put it in my favorites for if anything happens to my games :D !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought Ski Free had the Yeti (or snow monster, with stick legs to be correct). LOL
I thought you could actually outrun him forever depending on whether you had good luck hitting all the jumps.
The two things I also remember very fondly on that game was:
A) jumping into the bare trees to make them catch fire
B) doing an insanse amount of flips after hitting those rainbow colored jumps
:D

I will fill in if dont mind startin off where you started,
C) crash into the same tree stump 2 times (run in to it once and go back up and crash into it again) and it will turn in to a mushroom :D !!!
D) follow the dog and when you get close up to him he will stop sit and say WOOF!! then starts walking again.
E) sometimes (rarely in the game) if you choose to follow the blue and red arrow signs they will rarely change in to a green :) face if you are follow the path right or change into a red sad face if you do it wrong!
F) when you run in to another skier (the pink slow guy) and jump just before you run into him he will lay on his front (instead flating him on his back) and look pissed off LOL !!!!
F) sometimes when those fast snow boarders are neer you they will sometimes trip you on purpose!!!!!!
G) When you start the game and instead go down sking and walk up the whole game eventually you will get eaten by the bear yeti thing!!!!
all I can think of for now!! LOL 8-)

So did I! Although I was too poor to have one of my own so the community TI 83s were numbered in indelible (sp?) ink. There would be a rush for 4, 10, 12, and 18 since they had all the best games on them. Jezzball and DrugWars.
