Subject: Re: "JSWII+" - a new version of "JSWII: The Final Frontier"!
Norman Sword published some valuable info on JetSet Willy & Manic Miner Community concerning the final revision (Ver. +e.22) of "Jet Set Willy II+". He mentioned the fact that the player did not have to lose a life in "Water Supply" / "Well" / "Dinking Vater ?" after collecting the items in "Water Supply". I had thought a life had to be lost through a suicidal jump in order to be able to grab the rope in "Water Supply", after respawning, before it disappears. However, it turns out that the rope is cycling and the player can just wait for it to reappear.
In view of this information, I have re-recorded a good portion of my RZX walkthrough showing the completion of the game with all items collected. As a result, I have completed the game with 16 spares lives left (previously 15) at 1:15:50 in-game time (previously 1:16:30).
The ZIP with a set of walkthroughs of "Jet Set Willy II+" Ver. +e.22 hosted on RZX Archive has been kindly updated by Daren and can be downloaded from there. The Readme file within the ZIP has also been updated, regarding the walkthrough in question and some other details.
