Subject: "Jet Set Luis: Rumbo a la Costa Blanca" - more info
I am very pleased to say that the creators of "Jet Set Luis" responded to my private message immediately and answered all my questions. 
The people behind Softwarecete (tu software de Albacete) are: Álvaro Richarte Banegas (Gusanez), Felipe Aguilar Picazo (Gamusino) and David Sánchez Robles (Kaotiko).
They were indeed unaware of the existence of JSWED, this Group or the JetSet Willy & Manic Miner Community when they created the game.
The game was developed in 2014 and presented publicly for the first time at the RetroAlba event in Albacete. So its "official" release date is 8 February 2015.
The game is *not* meant to kill Luis on the last screen. It's a bug, which the creators of the game will try to correct. If anyone knows what causes the problem (and how to fix it), please post about it here, or let me know directly, or let Softwarecete know (their e-mail address is in the ZIP with the game files, in the subfolder called "Cartel", in the Cartel_85x200_06_con cigarro.jpg picture).
The members of the Softwarecete team have also taken part in the creation of a short film ¿Jugamos al Spectrum" (Producciones Gamusino, 2013, in Spanish), which can be watched here. It was directed by Felipe Aguilar Picazo. Álvaro and David contributed to some of its technical aspects and also appear there as "supporting actors". Furthermore, the members of the Softwarecete team belong to a music group called Seven Blas, which contributed to the film's soundtrack.
