Costa Lotta

version 1.0

Storyline:
Dizzy needs to get home from the island of Costa Lotta, where everything costs a lotta money.

Notes:
Dizzy can normally carry up to four items at any one time.
In most cases Dizzy will automatically use an inventory item when solving a puzzle,
as long as he's carrying the correct item - such as a key etc.
Press Enter/Return to enter doorways, entrances and to use teleporters.
Try jumping up at various places... Dizzy sometimes can jump higher than normal.
Use the inventory window to open up access to the warehouse.
This is a huge game with lots of stuff that kills - but in most cases Dizzy can buy
or find the secret file that gets rid of them.

Game size:
Press F10 to switch between windowed or full screen mode.
In some versions of Windows 10 you may need to amend the setup file:
Double click to open, then choose, config, video, and click on windowed to change it to full screen,
then exit.

Requirements:
PC compatible system with 3D video board (GeForce2 or above).
Windows operating system and DirectX 9 or OpenGL installed.
For audio a sound card is required (DirectSound compatible).
For rumble effect use a gamepad with force feedback.

Gameplay:
Use the left and right arrow keys to move in that direction and the up arrow key to jump.
...unless you're a total dinosaur, then use Z/LEFT, X/RIGHT, K/UP, for movement and
SPACE for jump, not forgetting to say "I'm a total saddo" every time you press one of these keys.
Use the enter/return key for action and entering doorways etc. Use the escape key for loading,
saving etc

You can mute the sound with F9 and show the game FPS with F11.
F1 will display the About box (windowed only).Use PrintScreen or ctrl+PrintScreen to save
a screenshot.

Troubleshooting:
By default, the game runs in 640x480 windowed mode (scale x2). Press the F10 key to
make it larger or smaller.

Thanks:
To the Mabess for testing this game.
