Very minor update. There are *no* code changes to this, only the loading screen was slightly tweaked to move the jswmm logo and a border added around Matthew's copyright.

Yes. You can actually put another value into that for a room ID, for instance if you set it at 37 Willy become the 'Flying Pig' in The Orangery instead. :)

I noted the recent updates too. Its interesting to see (and I'm pleased too) that some of the newer 'bug fixes' you've indicated for JSW are not far off what I did with the 'bug fixed' edition. :)

Walk through earth cells (use with caution!) makes earth cells behave like water cells, well mostly: POKE 36346,0 POKE 36451,0 POKE 36892,0 POKE 36909,0 POKE 37003,0 POKE 37020,0 POKE 37031,0

Great. :) Thank you. I'll be honest I prefer decimal as I find it easier. I really only know a couple of #hex values that have been permanently saved in my head.

Still awaiting 'news' of my copy of this. My local agent is a bit slow it seems. :) Oh well.

As its been around eight months since the original 'Bug Fixed' version was released, I thought it only fair to quickly assemble a 'cheat' version. This has the following built in: Infinite time Infinite lives Immunity to falls Immunity to arrows Immunity to guardians Immunity to fire cells Walk through earth cells (use with care!) The game code is identical to the previous release with the exception of the cheats obviously. :) A different "intermission" loading picture and a note on the main loading screen announce the fact it is a cheat edition.

Agreed. :) I looked online but could not see an easy way of purchasing it so I'll ask the local newsagent I think about that.

I'll try it, I thought I had one installed but it appears not any more. :)

Looks interesting, although the QL graphics are a bit odd (to be expected) :) No download link though but I guess its floating around somewhere.

Do you have any screenshots of that please ? :)

Thank you. :) :) :) Announced on the WOS site too here

Welcome. :) The MM game is based on the Spectrum version, it appears not far off (the graphics are the same as are the layouts it seems) the movement of Miner Willy is different however (too many leg steps) and the jump routine is not quite the same, the jump routine is similar to the C64 version of JSW actually from what I can tell, it has a 'floating' feeling. :D The JSW game appears to be something new rather than based on the original. :) It shares the 'floating' jump effect too.

View File Manic Miner Updated We are pleased to release a mildly updated Spectrum version of Manic Miner. 1. The new loading screen I put together here has been used. 2. The code was again assembled using a 'real' speedlock loader for both its intended use (on a real machine) and for tape loading fanatics too. This is not intended as any form of 'protection' it is simply to cut down loading time from approx 3m15s to 2m30s. :) Only the game code is loaded rather than an emulator 'built' one as that would load all the memory which is not needed. 3. The game code was based on the Software Projects release rather than the more common Bug-Byte one, the reason for this was simply as the Software Projects release was later so it made more sense to base it on the 'last' code as such. 4. The 'typewriter' cheat was removed. The Software Projects version was "typewriter" instead of "6031769" 5. To make the game a bit more initially friendly, Willy starts with seven lives instead of three however: 6. There is no bonus life awarded every 10,000 points any more. 7. Minor detail: The scrolling message was slowed down a fraction so its more readable. 8. Minor detail: The scrolling message was altered very slightly to correct a few concerns: In essence the changes are to capitalisation, spacing and the 'forgotten' pause keys. Enjoy. :) Note: Load in 48K mode Submitter Spider Submitted 02/01/2015 Category JSWMM Releases  

Upon requests, I'm pleased so supply a 'high speed' loader of the aformentioned Bug-Fixed release. Please note this has *no* changes compared to the previous releases with the exception of a tiny additional logo on the loading screen and a faster loader using a genuine Speedlock as per the 'Sold A Million' re-release of this game. The advantage of this is compared to an 'emulator built' one is the fact that only the game code is loaded not the whole memory = faster loading. Note: Load in 48K mode. Jetset Willy_BugFixed2015Edition_V1.tzx This release is not meant as any form of 'protection' it is simply provided for transfer to 'real' hardware of loading scheme fanatics. Enjoy. :) The update is simply to the loading scheme and the minor re-design of the jswmm logo.

Seems appropriate too: snowman.tap
