Fantastic Dizzy AGA for Amiga 1200/Amiga 4000. ---------------------------------------------- Release version >> Mon Aug 22 18:59:26 1994 ------------------------------------------- Fantastic Dizzy AGA is a great improvement over the basic A500 version! Here is a bit of info... ------------------------ Dizzy runs in harmony with the Amiga Operating System Dizzy is Hard-disk installable & can be run from Workbench or CLI Dizzy now contains a SAVEGAME option (press ESC during game...!) Dizzy doesn't multi-load anymore Dizzy will always run at 50 frames per second (hopefully!) Ingame screen is 32 pixels wider & 24 pixels taller than A500 version Background parallax plane is bigger, more colourful and it scrolls! NEW 24bit colour fades (check those morning-day-eve-night fades!) Depack times have been greatly improved 7 extra colours for sprites (BOBS) on the gamescreen The game panel has been improved to display objects & damage etc. Extra hidden puzzles and an improved cheatmode (look for the Symbol!) Various graphical enhancements (e.g. Armorog sprites,cloud masks etc.) Zak's Tower subgame now has parallax scrolling SAVEGAME MODE INFORMATION ------------------------- If you press the 'ESC' button while playing Fantastic Dizzy you will be presented with menu containing four options:- Return to game Quit back to titlepage Load a saved game from RAM Save a game position to RAM If you wish to save your game position to RAM then select the option 'Save a game position to ram'. Your game will be saved into RAM and you will be returned back to the game. If you wish to load a game position from RAM then select the option 'Load a saved game from ram'. The last saved position will be loaded and you will be returned back to the game at the saved position. Unfortunately there wasn't enough time to put in a savegame to DISK option (we didn't sort out an 'ARP.LIBRARY' or 'REQ.LIBRARY' licence!) - SORRY! NOTE: If you need to quit back to DOS then press 'ESC' on the titlepage. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ HARD DISK INSTALLER INFORMATION ------------------------------- To install Fantastic Dizzy AGA onto your hard-disk just load workbench, insert Fantastic Dizzy disk one and double-click the HDINSTALL icon. All you have to do now is sit back and smile! A message from the authors of Fantastic Dizzy AGA ------------------------------------------------- Fantastic Dizzy was originally written for the NES a few years back, since then we (Purple Haze) have coded the Sega Megadrive/Genesis versions and the Amiga A500 and Amiga A1200/A4000 (AGA) versions for you to enjoy! The original A500 version of Fantastic Dizzy was technically great and was presented well... So why did we earn less that 3000 pounds from it??? Piracy!! You Amiga owners have finally done it! Software houses are no longer producing Amiga games!!! The future looks bleak... UNLESS... You start buying games!! You can start by buying the ORIGINAL of FANTASTIC DIZZY AGA or CD32!! If we don't make any cash out of this version we will NEVER do another Amiga game, Ha!
