DizzyAGE Easter Competition 2017

It will be a bit later this year,
Don't mind the comp page now it's showing old entries :wink:
But I hope to automatize the process a bit and list all entries launched since last year.
I'll post here when it happens.
Tnks!

I didn't think the Competition would be happening this year.

I'll write a news post about it over the weekend. :smile:

Hope so, as I've already got three games under my hat since the last competition, but am currently halfway through the fourth, which has a sub-text of getting my own back on three ignorant people. {dizzy}:lookup:

As long as the next game is suitable to share on social media, then I'm fine with that. :smile:

I don't really wish to heavily edit out more drama on another thread this year. {dizzy}:lookup:

Wouldn't worry about it Adam, Dizzy style games are a bit old hat for young children or paid up members of today's snowflake generation ...besides, my 'special' games need easter eggs to be solved, so it's not blatant.

This game however, will be about Daisy being kidnapped and imprisoned on Doom Island forcing Grandad to create a 'normal' game where Dizzy has to find the ransom money, get to Doom Island and rescue Daisy without being a pervert or Daisy will be killed. The sub-text is just some mickey taking along the way so hopefully no harm done and no frantic editing on your part, or for Frogman to hide :tongue:

I had the privilege of helping Grandad work through [possibly] his first DizzyAge game. And with regards to taste, things have only gone downhill from there :tongue:

@Grandad : I absolutely still love playing classic-style Dizzy games, not just the fan games but the originals too. The only thing being a "paid-up member of society" means is that I don't have time to create my own adventures, otherwise I'd be all over it! {dizzy}:dizsmile:

Hi Mataeus, 'snowflake' is a modern day description of people who are easily offended and unable to deal with opposing opinions. Nothing to do with commitments of work or family that don't allow for much free time. However, some of my games are totally 'Family Friendly' and are updated versions of the original games using 'original' graphics that I have lovingly recreated and often with the original tunes:

Another Treasure Island Dizzy
Back to Magicland
Almost Spellbound Dizzy
Fantasy World Daisy

When you and your bro have sorted out all of Jamie's games you might fancy giving these a go ...as long as you don't mind Amiga style games. {yolkfolk}:joy:

Hang on, let me just check...

You are carrying

Two long pieces of wood
Ten short pieces of wood
A bottle of glue

Exit and don't drop

Nah, all good here.

Jamie's been leading an extremely busy life these past few years, but he does briefly reappear when he has the chance.

So what's the actual situation with the competition this year?
Are any of the recently released DizzyAGE games being entered?

I really, really want to put more work into Legend of Daisy. I was hoping to have finished by now but I've not managed to do anything more on it. It's rubbish how life gets in the way. What I really need is to be 65 years old. Or rich, or have access to Bernard's watch.

Ha, you wish Andy. It's only lucky people like me who get big, fat pensions at 65. You youngsters will probably have to work till you're 85 for a pension that's been cut back to the bone so that MPs can continue to be able to afford to upkeep their castles with moats :tongue:

Today's old men spend their retirement gardening and building sheds. Our generation will be completing their video games and catching up on TV!

Many of us wont be able to aford to retire and some of us will probably die long before the chance..
Lucky if you have a "sit down job" you can do that till your 80 and not wear yourself out.

Not me sir. I'm very low maintenance and all I need is a roof and a laptop. As soon as it's socially acceptable I'll be neglecting the crap out of everything else. I'll go to my kid's house and just refuse to leave, if I have to.
