The game was deeply discussed in the Podcast "New game old flame": 51. Fuming brains - New Game Old Flame. Thank you for that
Good job! https://c64universe.wordpress.com/2024/04/20/fizz-2023-fleischgemuese/ :)
May it be that in the V1.0.4 build the single player levels from 41 onwards repeat levels 01 and on?
This is fixed in V1.0.5...
Hi, I can't load it with my Ultimate 1541 2+
After loading from disk I get error "Failed to mute device #10", I never seen that before.
I tried disabling REU and fast loader but still getting the same error.
Any help?
Hello , for the Disk Version I used the Krill Fastloader. It should be compatible with all existing floppy drives. Normally if you disable fastloader it should work. The only adhoc solution if you can think of is to use the cartridge emulation (from the docs I see that it should have) . It is an older cartridge ( MagicDesk) version Fizz V1.0.1_CRT with missing entry levels … please let me know if this works and I could upgrade the CRT version

Great idea and very good puzzlegame. I added it to my September C64 Games -video too. 👍
This game is the best example of how it's not just graphics that matter, but an original game concept. Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 01:51:02. Subscription to our YouTube or Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
Too much thinking involved. Me dumb, me like pew pew. Sooo... 4/10 (not my type, others may like this kind)
It's a puzzle game...
Mind-bending, but always doable. I've been working on the walkthrough for the past few days and really enjoyed it!
Wow, thank you for the long play... glad to hear that you enjoyed it
Very nice game - you can tell a lot of thought has gone into this one.
Damn this is actually really hard !
Here is my tribute to this wonderful puzzle game.
thanks for reviewing my Game… funny to hear someone commending to Levels…
The solution to the last level is in the trailer :)
A mind-bending puzzler which really tricks the mind. Pretty good puzzle game also. It had me hooked to it last night. I am still trying to escape level 7. Well done. :)
The solution is in the trailer video :-)
Cute! In level 1, if player falls rightside from the initial platform the sprite keeps on falling and nothing else can be done. Is that a bug?
Nope, this is part of the game design. If you stuck just press "del" and try again
this is a great little game!
Nice game 👍🕹️We will prepare a small review for the upcoming issue of our Komoda & Amiga magazine. Greetings 🙂
Thank you for reviewing my game. Please note to look also to the later levels, the first 6-7 are tutorial. There is also a Two-Player Coop (Can also be played as single player) Regards
Ok 👍🙂 thank you for your reply and best regards 🙂
