PNG wasn't a leg pull, though I've been unable to find the Amiga map
for Fantasy World Dizzy. However, the entire PC map (256 colour,
individual screens slightly too large) is 250 kb as a PNG. So it'd be
possible. Animated elements are going to need to be repainted frame by
frame so are logically separate from the background anyway.
I'm unable to get Dizzy.zip ("Permission denied"), but at this point
it does look more like I'll hold you back rather than help you.
