Hi Jim, (When completed) Chaos Online should work on HTML browser enabled smartphones. As for a "proper" app in J2ME I wondered that too... There used to be...

Hi, nice to see such a good remake of Chaos in flash! Just want to say that the stats for Troll do exist in the original code at address 59149. I noticed it...
Hey john, Thanks for the troll stats, I dont have the necessary tools to view the original code, so I couldn't get those myself. I've made those changes to...
