Starting with level 50, you get a popup message after finishing each level with a number divisible by 10 in the Windows version. In the original version, these messages started on level 10, but the first four were omitted in the port, possibly because they are not mentioned in Jaime C. Villacorte's notes.

- Picking up chips is what the challenge is all about. But on the ice, Chip gets chapped and feels like a chump instead of a champ.

- Think figure-8s in this level. Make a tunnel adjacent to each insect room, using each insect as the top or side of a figure eight, and you make a tunnel completing the figure 8.

- Go seven steps right and build a path from the top to the bottom of the level, without touching the areas with the beasties. Fill in the right side areas, again without touching the areas with the beasts. Collect the chips on the right by diving into a beastie box and pulling quickly back out to the safety of your filled-in area. Remember that the bees and paramecia won't chase you. Repeat this filling in process for the middle and left sides of the level.

- The way to get the fastest time is simply walk from chip to chip, just as if there were no bugs. You'd be amazed but this doesn't represent any undue risk. Follow this procedure: You start by walking a few steps to the right until you are squarely under the center of the "nest" above you. I'll use the word "nest" to refer to the 3×3 hole with a chip in the center and a bug circling. Just walk straight up to the nest, pause a moment for the bug to pass you, then step right into the center and take the chip. The bug will continue around and then exit the nest via the path you entered. You then go straight to the next nest, do the same thing, and when the bug exits he sort of messes up the previous bug. If you simply go from nest to nest nothing can catch up to you.
