Hi everyone!
I present my version of Dizzy's adventures. This is my first dizzy game. I don't speak English well enough and translated the text of the game with the help of Google translator. I'm not sure if the translation is correct and I hope you test the gameplay and story dialogue so I can fix it.

Hi.

Just had a quick play and its looking good so far. {eggs3}:eryes:  

I managed to get out of Dizzy's house so far, and I like the graphic details in each room. {yolkfolk}:thumb:  

I will give this a proper go when I have the chance. {yolkfolk}:dizzy:

I've had a chance to play this tonight. :tup: I've got as far as getting the magic spell from Theo, but haven't found where to use it yet.

One bit of feedback: You used the default music for the title screen. When I heard that I muted it straight away. You maybe want to change that, especially because the game music's very good. (I only heard it because of the sign crediting the music to Luchibora made me think to unmute it.)

Hi! 

That's what a fresh perspective means. Indeed, it turned out not quite right. Initially, I wanted to insert my splash screen instead of the "1 menu" tile, but didn't consider the size of the splash screen and didn't want to crop it, so I replaced the "6 loading" tile and didn't pay attention to the default music. Thanks for the tip, I'll fix it.

I'm also having fun with this game Lightning, but I'm stuck by the ancient building and nothing seems to affect that wall... after having high hopes that was where the magic spell would be used :wall:

 Hi, Grandad.

Absolutely correct! The magic spell is applied there, only Dizzy must stand in front of the arch column.

Hate to say this Lightning, but have discovered a bug - when you use the shovel to dig a well, you can get stuck at the top of the rocks to the left of the mine cart when you jump to the top (probably best to add an invisible block so that you can't quite reach the top of the rocks).

Thanks for the tip, I'll look into this.

Did you find a way to open the box in the mine?

@lightning

I think you have mistranslated.

What Grandad was trying to say by 'sneaky', is that the game's difficulty is similar to his own games, which is a good thing.
There's no hatred here at all.

Speaking of translations, you mentioned you needed help with some of the text in the game, I'll be happy to help the best I can after having a proper play yesterday.

I've tried to list them as easy as I could.

I understood that too. I just used a different dictionary and the translation was different. I removed that question. Sorry, there was a misunderstanding, a flaw in the translator.

Thanks for the help, the problem is this: I wanted to load the game's branded splash screen with the DizzyAGE logo (6 loading) first, and then mine.But no matter how hard I tried, after the "6 loading" tile, mytile (with my splash screen) does not loading.I renamed it to "1 menu" but the HUD is gone.Can this be done somehow?

Yes, I think that I will have to correct all the text of the game. Thank you for your help and your time for me.

I'm sorry if you misunderstood me Lightning. I'd never say bad things about someone's game, as I know the effort and length of time it takes to make them. I shall try to use basic English so that it doesn't happen again.

I'm totally stuck again :sad: here is the list of items I have and (hopefully) tried on everything, even the bushes and mushrooms.

[spoiler title="item list"]honey, cognac, matches, pick axe, metal ring, glue, string bag, threads, apples, helmet, firewood, aluminium powder, pliers, heavy hammer, tongs, jam, tinned zuchini.[/spoiler]

Dear Grandad!

I have absolutely no complaints about you and I respect you very much as an experienced programmer. It's just that Google translator mistranslated the phrase: "Hate to say this Lightning, but. . ." Excuse me, I did not immediately think of using another source of translation and realized this a little later. Let's forget it please.

It's incredible how far you've come! Especially, in my opinion, it is difficult to get matches and a metal ring. Have you explored the bottom of the reservoir where the raft floats?

Items you will need:
cognac, matches, pick axe, metal ring, glue, string bag, aluminium powder, heavy hammer.

 Did you take the contents of the box in the mine?

There are two items in the game that can be used on the territory of the Market in different places. In one case, the passage of the game will be a little longer, because you will have to solve several additional puzzles. There are two such branches in the game. I mentioned them in the "readme.txt" file.

@khaosadz 

Hello, Adam.
Tell me please, is it permissible to separate the article from the word, when transferring it to a line below?

For example like this: "TAKE THE\nFLYCATCHER"

There is nothing wrong in English writing by separating the article from the word.

When coding, you can always make a message have new lines by adding \n at any point.

"OH MY GOD\nYOU HAVE SCRATCHED\nMY NEW CAR" will show up as

OH MY GOD
YOU HAVE SCRATCHED
MY NEW CAR 

 

EXTRA BIT - if you start and end messages with "\" and \"" you will get 'speech' marks at the start and end

"\"OH MY GOD\nYOU HAVE SCRATCHED\nMY NEW CAR\"" will show up as

"OH MY GOD
YOU HAVE SCRATCHED
MY NEW CAR"

Hope this helps.

Now off to explore beneath the water :tup:

[/quote] No, I wanted to ask if this form of writing would be correct in English in terms of spelling. 

It turns out that in the top line there is an article that is not attached to anything, and in the bottom line there is a lone noun.

@lightning Yes, it's correct - a new line is just fitting words on a page and doesn't affect the reading.
