***FIRST OFF UNDER 18 OR EASILY OFFENDED PEOPLE DON'T PLAY****

Dizzy's bad day was my entry into the 2003 Retro Remakes remakes competition.

It won the comedy prize due to it's rather adult take on the Dizzy series.

It is an authentic style Dizzy game with coins to collect, characters to interact with and puzzles to be completed.
Puzzles may involve dildos, drugs and huge false moustaches but it's all in the standard Dizzy format :D.

The flimsy plot is that Dizzy's porn shop has exploded, scattering his wares accross the land.
His parents are coming to visit so he must gather everything up before they arrive and save his embarrasment.

The game is NOT for the easily offended, as the big 18 signs on the title screen may indicate.

Look out for a cameo by Magic Knight ;)

]]> 08 Feb 2007 05:20:20 Pitfall: The Mayan Adventure is a video game released in 1994 for the Super NES and Mega Drive/Genesis by Activision. It was ported to the Sega Mega-CD (1994), Sega 32X (1995), the Atari Jaguar (1995), PC (1995), and the Game Boy Advance (2001), with the last one ported by Majesco. Pitfall: TMA was also the first commercial game released for Windows 95.

In this game, the player takes the role of Pitfall Harry Jr., son of the hero of the original game, who has to find his kidnapped father.

An extra feature in all versions is the ability to play the original Pitfall! (the Atari 2600 version) after finding a secret doorway. The doorway can be found by looking for something that seems out of place. The Mega-CD, 32X and Windows ports contained extra (and expanded) levels and other enhancements over the earlier versions.

Platform game where you must avoid hazards like fireballs, arrows and angry guards on your journey over the castle walls to save your love, Esmerelda.

Updated graphics and funky sound track gives the game a fresk lick of paint but the same game play that made it a "one more go" game remains.

]]> 05 Feb 2007 05:07:13 This a remake of the early BBC Micro game Escape from Orion, which was a simple platform game owing a considerable debt to Donkey Kong. It consists of 4 single-screen levels with a different key feature on each. Even in BBC Micro terms it was early and simplistic, so don't expect too much from it.

The game was made in GameMaker, for the 2003 Retro Remakes Competition.
