IRF Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 I did think of Danny's point actually i.e. what if someone else gets there first? So by all means, publish it if you wish! Although maybe we could legitimately request that it's done in a 'low-key' manner? i.e. without posting a link on WoS saying "Look everybody, this is how to complete JSW The Nightmare Edition!" Perhaps I'm worrying too much - as Danny says, players are aware that rzx recordings are inherently spoilery! Anyway, well done on completing it Mickey!

IRF Posted May 29, 2016 Report Share Posted May 29, 2016 Cheers guys look forward to the next version! ^_^ I meant to ask you Mickey, what did you make of the 'Time Up!!' sequence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalmickey Posted May 30, 2016 Report Share Posted May 30, 2016 Yup, i like it, i like the attention to detail with the clock coming down on Willy instead of the foot. I think there is always a temptation to take advantage of the extra resources available nowadays and go all out to create something far more elaborate but this is in keeping with Matthew Smith's original ideas, probably something he might have added in had he had more time. jetsetdanny, IRF and Spider 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRF Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Glad you liked it! I came up with the finer detail, and it was expertly implemented by Daniel Gromann! Throughout the project we tried to stay true to Matt Smith's vision, but of course in the original game when time runs out it just proceeds straight to the Title Screen!

Spider Posted May 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 I've always consider that to be a bug personally. :) It should jump to the 'Game Over' if nothing else. A simple change fixes (in most cases) IRF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalmickey Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) my theory is that he just completely forgot about it or maybe considered that back then when there were no emulators to speed up processes no one would be able to play the game for such a length of time that they would ever be able to witness the (lack of) time up sequence, one wonders what he might have come up with had he had more time .. perhaps an alternative ending with the foot being replaced with a giant 'Maria' or the devil character from 'entrance to hades' or maybe even the toilet?

Spider Posted May 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 I seem to remember reading (in a magazine iirc) there was some kind of idea that if Willy completed the game successfully he would be dancing with Maria or something along those lines... :unsure: The 'out of time' is a big bugged anyway as its "out of time" at 1am not midnight. :) jetsetdanny and IRF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRF Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 I just found this audio review of "JSW The Nightmare Edition": http://www.everygamegoing.com/landing/items/spectrum_48k/jswmm/tapes/Jet_Set_Willy_The_Nightmare_Edition.html If he thought TNE was hard, wait till he tries out "Willy's Recurring Nightmare"... :P jetsetdanny and Spider 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
