Notes

RemarksCrash cover game (Dizzy 3.5)

Known ErrorsThe shark at the castle entrance was supposed to move at the same speed as Dizzy, but due to a bug, it moves slightly faster.

Easter EggsThere is an extra screen at the top of the volcano, called "The Harpy's Eyrie". It can be reached by jumping over the volcano's smoke clouds.
