Crystal Kingdom Dizzy (2017 Spectrum Remake) v2.2 [DOWNLOADABLE]

Dizzy fans it's time to really celebrate the 30 year anniversary of Dizzy in a really big way, as a very special Dizzy remake of ' Crystal Kingdom Dizzy ' on the ZX Spectrum, has only moments ago appeared in our news feed. The original CKD was first released in 1992 on a multitude of systems in a completely different graphical pallet than we were used to and some say worse than most of the other 8-bit Dizzy games of the time. But now that is all about to change as this ZX Spectrum version looks to be the best 8-bit styled version yet!

Yolkfolk's games database was designed to only include 3 fields for credits which is "Programmer", "Graphics" and "Music" - I have no control over the ability to add additional or specific credits I'm afraid. :sad:  

I have however added the full credits of the game on the "Notes" section further down the page to make sure no names are missed. It's the best I am able to do. {yolkfolk}:scratch:  

v1.05 should now be up on Yolkfolk.

Hello!

I am absolutely loving the CKD remake; it's more like an original Dizzy than the original! However, I seem to be having a problem with the whip; when I hang it in the tree, try as I might, I can't climb up it. I have tried all the buttons and restarted the game to no avail. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you!

Toby

@tobybateson Welcome. :smile:

You have to hold the Jump button to climb up the whip.

Took me a while to figure out first time around.
