Dizzy



Dizzy is the titular character of the Dizzy game series, created by The Oliver Twins. He is also one of the Yolkfolk.

Characteristics
Dizzy is featured as an anthropomorphic egg, who usually wears red wellington boots and red boxing gloves. His egg-like shape was originally chosen as it was easy to animate and rotate on the early Amstrad and Spectrum systems.

Personality
Not much of Dizzy's personality is shown during games, as with most early platform games, the main protagnoist is mostly silent. However, he is always trying to help his friends and generally thwart evil, and along with his almost permanent cheery smile, it is safe to assume Dizzy is a generally happy and helpful sentient egg-being.

Abilities
Dizzy's main ability is that of the ability to puzzle solve, as his adventures are almost always accompanied by many item-based puzzles standing between him and his goal.

Dizzy can also jump and roll, and with the aid of certain items, gains the ability to do many other physical activities such as swimming and breathing underwater.
