My new game for personal computers. This is an early alpha version.
The game can be played completely to the end.

Hey Papa, love the graphics :tup:
Unfortunately cannot get this game to work ...on my Windows7 PC get the error message needs Microsoft VisualC++ 2019 runtime
and on my Windows10 PC get that error message plus needs Microsoft VisualC++ 2015 runtime, plus DirectX runtime.

No idea what that means {yolkfolk}:scratch:

It doesn't work for me either. :sad:

I'm on Windows 7 (32-bit).

Yes it's true. I made this game for x64 computers ... I didn't think that someone uses 32 bit...
As soon as possible, I will try to compile for 32 bit, especially for you.

Adam, I think that unless you have a really modern graphics card then this game won't play even if Papa does a 32 bit version - I've been checking online and there's something called direct 3D DD1 : 11.1 which if your graphics card is not bang up to date it'll only support 10.1, not 11.1 even if your directx version is 12. Oh well, the game looks really nice, but I'm not about to fork out for a brand new graphics card just to play one game :no:

The game is finished and posted on Steam. Contains achievements. This is the last working version of the game.

I'll test it, fortunately my system is Windows 7 64-bit. However: could you consider remaking Dizzy One as well for those who have no smartphones? Smartphone emulation is really complicated compared to DOS emulation and from what I know about it, just seems not suited to my preferences (windowed mode, no registration to a phone number, no Facebook because I don't use it either anyway)...

Thanks for your feedback! But Dizzy One is a small game, it resembles Dizzy 3.5. There is no point in reworking it. Plus, I'm worried about copyright. I mentioned the Oliver twins in the description of the game in Steam and the game itself, but they or Codemasters can block it. Or go to court and collect a fine from me.
