i used to play a version of the manic miner on pc or amiga (i cannot remeber well , but i suppose it was on amiga) which had cool graphics and not the sprite-like ones of the zx spectrum (i had that too).
it was a redesigned version of the old saga with cool graphics and
music...

I DO NOT REMEMBER THE NAME OF IT THOUGH!

It might be Stephen McMaster's Amiga conversion of Manic Miner. Did
Willy look vaguely Mario-esque and were the levels larger than the
screen? If it was, I'm afraid I'm not sure there's a fully working
copy out there, but I can always put the word out on the Amiga
newsgroups of course

BTW. Stephen's conversion of JSW 2 is also brilliant, but the only
version available on emulator (that I know of) has jerky scrolling
and Willy's sprite is invisible :(
