Dizzy and the Other Side is a fan made game created in the spirit of the famous Dizzy series. Keeping the graphics and gameplay true to the classic series, Dizzy and the Other Side tells an original story, full of funny dialogs and clever puzzles.

You get to control Dizzy with the arrows keys for walking and jumping around. The enter key is used for action and acquiring items. With the escape key, you can bring up the game menu from where you can save and load your progress.

During the five acts of the story, players can additionally collect hidden diamonds, which will get them a better score to post online. An interactive walkthrough can be found on the game's official website as well, for players who are stuck with a puzzle or two.

Totally awesome. I'm a huge fan of Dizzy games. :D

Thanks for mentioning it!

Hm, I like Dizzy but it's really odd seeing Spectrum style graphics not using the Spectrum palette.

Awesome i love it! Anybody know any others like this? Or maybe more in the pipeline? Somebody should code a new Dizzy game entirely for c64. Now that would be awesome ;)

Aint looked at this yet it wont load on my phone.
Dizzy was my fave game series when i was younger and prob still is!played few recently on an emulator for ds.would be nice to see a brand new one for either ds or wii ware/VC etc keeping it 2D just improving the graphics.I remember 1st time i played Fantastic dizzy for the mega drive / genesis and loved the step up in graphics.would be nice to see another step up now just keeping true to old gameplay..surely this would sell better than half the games released for either!?
www.yolkfolk.com good site!with loads of info and remakes to play on your pc!
