Hi there JSW/MM fans!
I'm developing and about to complete "Manic Mission" a Manic Miner and Impossible Mission mashup, which inevitably contains JSW elements. It's not sequential like MM and you can navigate all rooms on a bigger map like JSW; you move around the map also using Elevator shafts like in Impossible mission and other IM elements are searching furniture pieces for puzzles/passwords useful to complete the game by combining puzzle pieces to form a random drawing to discover the final password.
It's written in HTML5 so nothing to download/install/emulate, you can directly play the test version here:
https://heracleum.org/games/manic-mission/test/
(do not use Firefox, it's too slow, I suggest Chrome)
The game is basically complete, but I still need to create more rooms. The good thing is there's a built in Level Editor you can use to create and suggest your own rooms!
The Editor is totally visual, you can create platforms, drag/drop move and copy blocks, set guardians' sprites, paths, visually assign targets to Switches and also (for the Impossible Mission side) set "furniture areas" where furniture pieces will randomly be assigned or remain just blank.
Instead of getting keys or flashing items to unlock the door to next level, in Manic Mission flashing items are used to unlock/search furniture pieces.
I'd be honoured to know what you guys think and would love to know if you're interested in creating a few rooms to add to the game. There will be virtually infinite rooms in each play, one could decide to play the "official game levels" or the "Community created levels" (this option is still ignored since I don't even have enough rooms -32- for the official levels).
Anyway a full game is possible to play and complete, you will just see "Random Room (n)" as filler levels.
It starts with a C64 palette and its sprite rendering but you can set both ZX Spectrum palette and Speccy rendering if you prefer.
A few screenshots in the attachments.
For easier collaboration, maybe draw a few blocks graphics or guardians sprite animation (there's plenty to add)
and especially to send your -locally saved- rooms created with Level Editor here's the Manic Mission creators Discord link:
