Subject: Update of JSW Central
JSW Central has been updated. The main change is that "Jet Set Willy II" has been included in the main list of JSW games, as a separate category. So the list now embraces the following categories of games:
I. Manic Miner (MM)
II. Jet Set Willy (JSW48)
III. Jet Set Willy II
IV. Jet Set Willy 128 (JSW128)
V. Jet Set Willy 64 (JSW64)
"Jet Set Willy II" was previously the first entry in the secondary list "Games of MM and JSW interest". However, having given it some thought after the recent attention I devoted to the game because of its new incarnation "Jet Set Willy II+", I have decided that it is unfair for one of the most important games of the genre to be on a secondary list. So now it has a separate category on the main list, even though it is the only entry there at the moment ("Jet Set Willy II+" being a kind of Special Edition, and therefore not meriting a separate entry). Time will tell whether or not, thanks to JSWED, new games using this particular game engine will be created.
The original "JSW" and "JSWII" now have their individual pages on JSW Central, with download links and screenshots of all screens in each game (including all "JSWII+" Version +e.22 screenshots).
Links to YouTube videos of the RZX walkthroughs have been added on all individual pages of MM games (except for "Manic Miner: Jet Set Willy" which I think doesn't exist on YouTube yet 
).
The Links page has been revised and updated.
External links now open in new tabs.
The website is work in progress, of course, and will be developed gradually
