Dizzy and the Harp of Life v1.0 [DOWNLOADABLE]

HI everyone i have just completed my first dizzy game {yolkfolk}:yahoo:
and was wondering how i go about putting it on this wonderful site.
i must say without the video tutorals by delta this would not have been possible so thanks :tup:

Congratulations! {yolkfolk}:clap: You can email Alex here: https://www.yolkfolk.com/dizzyage/support.html to let him know, and i'm sure he'll be delighted to upload it for you!

Have you played it through right to the end? If not i would strongly recommend that you do, just to iron out anything that may not work as intended, and to make sure everything works and looks fine. If it's a small game then you'll be fine checking it on your own. If it's a medium to large game (say, 50+ screens and more than about 20 puzzles) i'd recommend getting someone else to test it as well before you release it, as they may discover things that you might have missed.

Seriously tho, very well done! I'm glad that the video tutorials have been of use! And remember, the more you play around with it, the more you'll learn, the more you'll understand, and your games will improve with each one you release!

There is a tendency to think that your puzzles are easier than they actually are. this is because you know what to do, so it seems obvious to you! This is also where having someone test it comes in useful, as they may say that a certain puzzle is too hard, or way too easy.

All you really have to do is to try and ensure that they are logical, and that there is a reason for using that item to solve that puzzle.

oh and yes, we do indeed all start somewhere! :teethy:

You could try PM Jamie (Delta) or Adz.M or Meph.

Look forward to playing your game

Open pak tool.
Write path to data folder in “From” box:
Ex: c:mygamedata
Write out file in “To” box
Ex: c:mygamedatadizzy.pak

in case it gives an error, maybe the listed log is useful.
