I just watched the trailer on the game's website and the voice-over on it made me laugh out loud  ;D

It's nice that people keep up the legacy, but I would have preferred if it used graphics similar to the PC Dizzy games.

He he, I know the voice overs in the trailer are not exactly what they should be, but there was a about 60% to 40% in favor of keeping them.
And since I couldn't afford to pay for a movie trailer professional, and no one offered to help, I just decided to keep them like that.
In case you want to give it a try, recording a better version, let me know :)

Also, I think most fan games there were made using DizzyAge (http://www.yolkfolk.com/dizzyage/), so these are the default classic graphics and I don't see anything wrong with them for nostalgic reasons (though of course, it's not wrong either to use the VGA PC graphics).

Yay! Dizzy!
Gotta love that little eggs.
Classic line from Fantasy World Dizzy when you go to knock on the door.

"That's easier said than done when you're wearing boxing gloves!"

I find myself saying that from time to time totally out of context.
