- Speedrun of Wonderful Dizzy released for the ZX Spectrum in 2020.
Wonderful Dizzy 1.0 played on Fuse 1.6 Emulator
Forgot to start the timer... oops.
I got a big text skip by re-entering Dizzy's house as the witch appears. Precise timing to leave the screen after she appears but before her first text box appears.
A similar skip can be done with the toy shop keeper. I was a little late and had to mash through text.
Something I discovered after this run is that the best way to mash through text is to hold a direction as that will stop Dizzy from re-talking to NPCs and allows faster mashing through text without worrying about losing time to activating more text boxes.

This is a beta version, the first release of the game with many bugs. In the official final version (1.5) there is no auto-collection of coins. It turns out that all speedruns are cheating.
1.0 version, officially released on Yolkfolk dot com. It was even promoted by the Oliver Brothers. 😜
I know there is fristration on your part that glitches exist in the published game but that is part of the fun of speedrunning, to find the things a developer has overlooked or not intended to included. (The mushroom glitch in your Crystal Kingdom Remake is a very fun glitch)
I personally think the coin collecting text is a bad design decision. The coins in this game are closer to the Stars in The Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy. There are so many of them. There is one screen with 5 coins, to see the text appear 5 times in such a short period ruins the flow of the game imo. More coins than screens, never seen before on Spectrum Dizzy.
@@faddy91 Unfortunately, the Oliver Twins gave us an unwarranted time pressure. They had a desire to release the game a week before Christmas, which did not allow enough time for deep testing. Otherwise, they wanted to release an unfinished dev release without a final cut scene. Later, under quiet conditions, testing was carried out and a lot of fixes were made. I do not recommend using version 1.0 for speedruns.
As for CKD 2017, I think a redux version will be released in the future. The plot will be closer to the original according to the letters from the past from The Oliver Twins to the Codemasters devs.
@@drbars i recommend 1.0 for speedruns as it is the fastest to complete
