Uploaded TOS v1.2
Nothing important - the tos.zip works as before.
The new setup.exe allows integration with external installer.
You can find a zip with such an installer, for the cd version, on the download cover page.
And another inside print, for the cd case
I printed and made a few nice cd cases of the game. Here is a sample:
Cool, I really like them !!!
Hey Alex,
I loves the TOS, as I mentioned on an earlier forum - (cant remember which one tho) This has to be the best Dizzy fan game of all time - WOW.
Im proud to say that Im still on the leaderboad - albeit after loads of reloads.
Anyway - the TOS CD looks sooo cool - Love the artwork, is it possible to get hold of an autographed cd in case somehow?
Good luck with the development - I cant wait to see what youre next project is going to be.....
It would be difficult, because my costs to safely send a proper package to UK were quite high last time I checked. I had to send the t-shirt prize of the first DizzyAGE competition as a normal letterOriginally Posted by DizzyFanUK
. Strange, but the costs to send from UK to Romania were much lower.
What an absolutely eggsellent game! I just posted my highscore, I'm 19th ... yippie! ;-)
I mapped it while I was playing it. Am I allowed to post the map here? (via a photobucket account) Or would that be too much of a spoiler? ;-)
BTW
[strike]Does the [img] tag work in this forum?[/strike] Duh, I just noticed post no. 32 ;-)

i'm sure no-one would mind if you posted the map here. if you can! (it will be a hugeee file), alternatively, host it elsewhere and link to it here.
btw, if you download the source code for the game, the map file is contained in that....

"Dizzy and The Other Side" finally made it in the review list of GameTunnel.

Not the top score - looks like they were put away by the "too retro" style.
And they got the author wrong - credited the Olivers as authors, but I emailed them so I hope they change it.
But I'm glad it was reviewed there. It's a popular indie games website.

I checked out that link - its good that TOS is getting some of the recognition that this excellent game deserves.
There were some very positive comments there about the gameplay especially.
Im a bit surprised that maybe some reviewers didnt appreciate that the graphics and controls were actually designed to feel like a spectrum game.
Maybe if they were purely a dedicated retro site they'd be more favourable - but its great news that a nonretro site even wanted to pick this up - it certainly opens up Dizzy to a wider audience.
Well done Alex!!
