Mystery World Dizzy - how to run?

#5581624 August 2020

I wanted to try this game, but I know very little about it. What is certain is that I don't have NES and never have, I have generally always been a PC-only player. But I see that it can supposedly be played online. However, I can't start it. I click to enable Flash, then the words "Click here to play" appear... but there's no reaction to clicking. Has anyone been able to play it online?
By the way, given the inevitable demise of Flash, I have downloaded the program Flashpoint Infinity, which allows playing Flash games offline also after browsers cease to support it. But I'm afraid that "Mystery World Dizzy" might not be available there. They are trying to convert every Flash game to a version which can be played through Flashpoint, but it's not like "Mystery World Dizzy" was ever a popular game, the very existence of a Flash version should rather be seen as a kind of bonus...

I've noticed that too.
I don't know why they've stopped working, and all 3 mini-sites haven't been maintained since they launched.

But there is an alternative on the main Yolkfolk site here:
-- https://yolkfolk.com/play-online/

You'll find all the online NES games listed on there, and they don't use Flash.

Hope this helps. :smile:

Is it possible to change the resolution so that I don't have problems later with shrinking it to "single pixels"? Actually, I made a screenshot to check it and it's enlarged in a "blurry" way. Too bad, I want to have a "pure" reproduction of the game's real graphics and I want to keep the files as small as possible - therefore "single pixels" instead of an enlarged game screen.

Hey again, does anyone know how to change resolution?
A bit of clarification: this is what I mean by "double pixels", on the example of VGA remake of "King's Quest 3":

And this is a screenshot from the same game in its basic reolution, 320x200:
