JSW Central videos

 

JSW Central offers walkthroughs of MM and JSW games and versions recorded in RZX format. These are downloadable from the games' individual pages. The walkthroughs aim to show games completed as smoothly, elegantly and efficiently as possible—aiming for the best completion time (JSW games) or the highest score (MM games), with no loss of life if it can be avoided (unless stated otherwise, e.g. in the case of speedruns). Walkthroughs depict the protagonist (Willy or another character, depending on the game) progressing decisively, without hesitation, wasting time or making unnecessary moves, following the shortest and most efficient route.

Almost all RZX recordings were made using the Rollback technique, which allows the player to mark a position and return to it if needed, enabling retries. As a result, the solutions to MM and JSW games presented here have a tantalising, almost unreal quality.

Walkthroughs of MM and JSW games, originally recorded in RZX format, are also available to the general public as MP4 videos. This initiative began in late November 2020 with the launch of the JSW Central YouTube channel. Initially conceived as a companion to this website, the channel has since taken on a life of its own, attracting over 400 subscribers and requiring regular updates to maintain audience engagement.

In March 2025, the option to download these videos was introduced, made possible through the good offices of the Internet Archive. The downloadable versions include the original Full HD recordings as well as AI-upscaled 4K versions. While the walkthroughs themselves remain identical to those in the YouTube uploads, the downloadable videos may feature minor modifications, such as adjusted title screens or improved audio synchronisation. Therefore, anyone wishing to download a JSW Central video is strongly encouraged to obtain the final version from the Internet Archive rather than the one available on YouTube.

Below is a list of JSW Central videos, along with their YouTube and Internet Archive links:
