Ah, yes.  Mike Elson's DirectX port of Chuckie Egg, homepage here:

http://vroomfondel.net/chuckie/

That is very c00l ...

There's hundreds of other remakes for a silly number of platforms (including

I'd heartily recommend the GameBoy Color version for a start.

Surprisingly, no native *nix ports so far, tho ... (I heard a rumour someone
was going to try porting Mike's DirectX code to SDL but nothing came of it).
