"What are the dimensions of objects, platfrom
blocks etc in JSW ?"

All objects, blocks and
conveyors are 8x8 pixels.
Sprites are 16x16 (double the
size of blocks).
Willy is also 16x16 pixels and
moves 8 pixels horizontaly even though it looks like
he's moving 2 pixels. What happens is, his graphic
advances 4 frames then the sprite moves over 8 pixels then
goes back to the first graphic of animation, it's the
same with the horizontal guardians. The animation is
drawn as if willy is moving 2 across.
The play area
is 256x128 pixels which is 32x16 blocks (I
think).
Willy jumps 20 pixels high.
