Jet Set Mixup is a remix of JSW in which the layout is almost identical to that of JSW, but most of the original guardians have gone on holiday and have been replaced on duty by sprites from MM and JSW 2. Furthermore, the player is offered a choice of eight initial playing sprites to pick from, including Willy, as well as two special Random Modes. The first Random Mode choice changes the sprite upon entry to each room (or loss of life) to one of the eight playing sprites, selected at random. In the second Random Mode, a sprite change also occurs each time an item is collected.
Some other changes were applied to the game, such as e.g. a redesigned title screen using a large "handwritten" style font, an enhanced Game Over screen, a change of the item counter to indicate the number remaining, minor adjustments to the status bar (lower screen) area and the removal of unwanted routines, such as the keypad and screen-flash.
