A while back I released a remake of Chuckie Egg for the DS. I've decided to port it to the GBA with a fresh coat of paint.
Here's a work-in-progress preview of "Professor Sinister and his Marauding Mechanicals":

There's still plenty of work to do (including all new level designs) but much of the game is playable now.
If you try it out on real hardware, I'd be grateful if you'd let me know which flash cart you use and if you have any problems (my EZ-Flash IV does bad things to some of the ROMs I'm building).
Use the d-pad to walk left/right and climb up/down ladders. A and B both jump. Start pauses the game. Pressing L and R while paused will return to the title screen.
To climb ladders (this is important), press Up as you approach the ladder. When your character reaches the ladder he'll automatically grab on and start climbing. To dismount ladders, press Left or Right as you approach a platform. When your character reaches the platform he'll automatically release the ladder and dismount.
The same applies when you're jumping. If you want to grab a ladder while jumping, press and hold Up (or Down) before you reach the ladder and the professor will grab it as he passes it.
Collect all of the green vacuum tubes in each level to progress to the next.
