Legend of Daisy: A Diz to the Past (Demo)
=========================================

About:
This is the demo for my forthcoming game.  There are 30 stars
to collect, although there's no prize for this yet.  I hope
you like it!  The actual game should take some time.  Any
feedback appreciated!

Story:
In 2014, Dizzy got very rich.  In 2015, he became a priest and 
moved to Ireland.  Now, Zaks has stolen his money and declared
himself emperor of a police state!  Will Dizzy have to travel
back in time in order to stop this menace?  (Spoiler: yes, but 
not yet.)

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 or joystick with force feedback.

Gameplay:
Keys are Z/LEFT, X/RIGHT, K/UP, M/DOWN for movement, SPACE for jump,
ENTER for action and ESCAPE/Q for menu.
If present, a gamepad or a joystick can also be used.
You can mute the sound with F9,
toggle windowed/full screen mode with F10,
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).
It should have sound enabled, keyboard and joystick support.
The game uses dizzy.ini for keeping it's settings.
You can adjust them from the provided setup, or even manually.
If you have troubles with your joystick or gamepad, try to 
switch it to analog mode, calibrate it, or edit the dead zone
values in dizzy.ini with higher values.
If you experience troubles running the game,
try checking the log messages (enable them from setup),
visit the official web site for details, or contact the author.

Credits:
Thanks a lot to the helpers on the Yolkfolk forum, particularly
Simon Rice (for his circular motion code among other things), and
Jamie Douglas for his custom AI which made my head spin to look
at.  Also thanks to Jamie for the code I modified just a tiny 
amount for the journal!  This nearly made me sick let me tell you.  
Additional music is from Zelda: A Link to the Past and The Smurfs 
(Master System).
