** ENLIGHTENING TIMES DIZZY**

Story:-

Great Grand Dizzy with his ripe old age has been placed in the hospice for his last days.

However it's the 'Yolkfolk Solstice' in the village of Kelwater. Assist Junior & DizzyBelle to collect all the light crystals, harnessing the power of light with the discovery of an encryption on an ancient monument & to ultimately discover the 'ring of life' to extend the years of Great Grand Dizzy.

To play as Junior with the aid of baby sister DizzyBelle.

WooHoo! Hoped you couldnt keep away from DizzyAge!
Starting a little Jnr franchise eh?(hopefully :wink: ) - but you'll need to go some to keep up with the number of games featuring Grandad's Daisy and Jamie's Dexter (although Dexter seems to have been put to bed {yolkfolk}:sob: )

Good luck with it, just dont forget the pirates!

Yes lol, suppose it's good to have your own little take or 'franchise' so to speak if that's an appropriate way of putting it, like you say with Grandad & Jamie, gives variety for everyone in terms of gameplay & story.

Glad your happy with me deciding to work on another, thanks with the good luck, the hardest part is the starting of from the beginning as obviously all the work is to do but hopefully I will get some ideas along the way. I tend to start to enjoy it more once i'm on the latter half of development but decided I will do another, just won't put any time frame on it & just do bits as & when.

I'll try & remember the pirates !! {yolkfolk}:meh:

Thanks Colin, it's the first one i'm properly happy with seeing as i've now found a way of not losing the picture quality & them being a bit blurry.

I've used your blue glowing tile within it, hope you don't mind & any others I may use for the game. Thought best give credit with me using.

Unfortunately progress on this has pretty much come to a halt due to me now meeting a new ladyfriend in my life not to mention everything else that keeps me busy.

I have however done about 60% of the map (except nasties & the water brushes etc) I would say approx but virtually no programming code for the gameplay.

I am very pleased with it so far though, I like it the best of mine already & feel is an improvement once more & i'm pretty excited with it....but i'm not sure now when progress will be made on it. Not touched it now for approaching 2 months.

Thanks Quiggie, early days but it's lovely to be romancing again as you say :smile:

Edits: Sadly future outlook different and things haven't worked out.

Managed to progress the development a wee bit after not touching the game for around 3 months :surprise:

I've now just one new section to start from scratch but all other sections are at least been in the works. Very little coding done as regards puzzles as need to get the basis of the map generated first.

Progress is very slow still so not even confident for being on time in 2012.

The Story to the game has now been added to the beginning of the progress thread.

All sections of the game map have now been started on & in the works to continue development....so the good news is no more parts to start from new :smile:

Some initial coding has begun.

The map is pretty much classed as complete yeeeee.... {yolkfolk}:yahoo:

Just any creatures (baddies) and collectables to add plus any bits of alterations that need doing as I come to do the coding and work out the puzzles and sequencing with what will work and won't.

It's mainly all coding now which is about 25% done. I've still to work out however quite a number of puzzles & interactions to work with the map & story so hoping I get some more inspiration.
