IRF Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) I am pleased to present the JSWMM community with a brand-new 'micro-game' that I have created, entitled 'Jet Set Willy Heaven and Hell'. There are 25 items in the game, spread across three rooms. Try to ascend to Heaven, without descending into Hell. It's just a little bit of fun, but it does showcase a particular 'quirky' feature of the Jet Set Willy game engine which, to the best of my knowledge, has never previously been documented or exploited in a JSW game. I pray that you prevail! Jet Set Willy Heaven and Hell.zip Edited November 17, 2016 by IRF Metalmickey, jetsetdanny and Spider 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalmickey Posted November 18, 2016 Report Share Posted November 18, 2016 well this is an oddity!! what was the quirk exactly, is it to do with the arrows? I don't want to spoil it for others so i won't say too much here... Spider, jetsetdanny and IRF 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRF Posted November 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 well this is an oddity!! what was the quirk exactly, is it to do with the arrows? I don't want to spoil it for others so i won't say too much here... The quirk is mainly to do with the rope, although the arrows play their part. I won't say too much just yet; I still have yet to 'announce' the game on World of Spectrum (for which I shall have to subscribe to WoS first!) Interestingly, the classic 'Infinite Lives' POKE 35899,0 doesn't work on this game (or indeed, on any game where Willy doesn't start off with any spare lives other than the one he begins with). That's because all the POKE does is remove the instruction that decrements the number of lives remaining - it doesn't stop the program from checking if any lives remain (and terminating the game if not).

Metalmickey Posted November 25, 2016 Report Share Posted November 25, 2016 i forgot to ask .. at the end, once all the items are collected is that supposed to happen? (not worked out how to create an anti spoiler post yet!) IRF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRF Posted November 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2016 I've posted about this over on WoS now: http://www.worldofspectrum.org/forums/discussion/53733/new-micro-game-jsw-heaven-hell I wasn't sure whether or not you can add attachments to posts over there... then again, I've provided a link to here so it's probably best that way as it potentially gives this site a bit more traffic.

No, can't attach files on there to posts. I tend to either link to a file here or stick it somewhere else if its not jswmm related.
