I was playing this yesterday while half-heartedly cataloging the
different editions of JSW1 that I own, and I encountered a weird bug
which I've never heard about before. Specifically, the ropes are
scrambled. Every time I go into a rope room, the dots aren't
following the usual pattern but instead are flying all around the
room, as if the rope has exploded. It's weird to watch, since Willy
can still climb up and down the rope (he may not be able to avoid it,
as the dots usually crash into parts of the scenery every second),
and as he does so he moves about the screen chaotically according to
which dot of the rope he should be clinging to

I've added a patch to my homepage which fixes this by moving the
rope lookup table to 9F00h.
