New Dizzy Game in the Works at Codemasters
It appears like Codemasters are bringing back one of their oldest gaming icons for a new Adventure. A new website, Eggcitingnews.com, has posted a new teaser image, that suggests that Dizzy, the Prince of the Yolkfolk, will be making his return soon.
Dizzy was a platforming Egg-based creature, who had to traverse worlds to protect his townspeople – the Yolkfolk, whilst completing puzzles and performing a lot of annoyingly-precise jumping sequences. The series has many entries in the later eighties and early nineties, but it has been almost twenty years since the last effort was released. It will be interesting to see how much they stick to their roots, or whether the game will be updated and changed to suit modern gaming tastes. Codemasters have also set up a new Youtube channel to create excitement for the title, on which they released a teaser trailer. Also check out the debut image below the video clip.

If I'm not playing on a good Adventure Game - still longing for the long-past Golden Age of the genre, when Lucasarts and Sierra ruled supreme - you might find me searching for a local arcade, in the hopes that it still houses titles such as Sunset Riders or WindJammers.
