Willy Lives! 40 years ago.....40 years ago....40 years ago....40 years ago....40 YEARS AGO...... this work of genius (or abomination depending on your perspective) crawled out of the twisted imagination of Mathew Smith. While what he was smoking at the time remains classified Jet Set willy - part platform game part cult initiation - was immensely popular, although to this day nobody knows why, an managed to win the highest praise and acclaim for - em - reasons. Well, Jet Set Willy has risen from that toilet he crawled down to access the secret areas and has be faithfully reproduced in this little gem. It's all here - the toilets still want to eat you. Maria still wags her fingers in contempt. Moonlight Sonata still echoes through the Death Trap Mansion you decided to live in. The controls are just as buggy and unresponsive when you need them most (ahhh now THERE is authenticity for you!). They even included that annoying fucking anti piracy code which you would always lose then wait weeks for Software Projects to send you a new one. As it was 40 years ago Jet Set Willy was and remains one of the most bizarre crimes in the annals of gaming history...

Great game...brings back good memories from Manic Miner/JSW

Cool this game Is Difficult but it also fun 8/10

Thank you massively to the developer for this game. I love it so much. This is definitely a good game. It is a bit hard but that is the whole point of the game. I hope everyone gives this game a chance it has you on the edge of your seat.

If you are a fan of either old school platform games (like me - I grew up alongside Manic Miner and Miner 2049er), or just enjoy getting your butt handed to you on a plate, you will appreciate this gem of a game. The developer was obviously aware that it's hard (no harder than the old-school platformers were, though), so has thankfully a) provided an 'easy' mode where the you get an extra life each level (up to a certain point in the game) and b) dispensed with the falling damage that made the old games so frustrating. Without these two concessions to modernity, I doubt I would have been able to get very far! However, don't let that lull you into a false sense of security...the moment your attention starts wandering and you start thinking about what you are having for dinner, is the moment that you lose a life. Then, you will invariably lose ANOTHER life because you are annoyed at having lost concentration. This game requires both dexterity and patience to overcome! About halfway through the game, something happens that I won't spoil here, which led me to shout WHAT THE HELL, IS THIS GUY A COMPLETE SADIST? But, with skillz (excuse the extra 'z'!) you will succeed.... Unless you are a better gamer than me, that is. Maybe you will breeze through it! (LOL!) I also have to mention the fantastic moody soundtrack; I hope he releases this separately for people to enjoy. I think you will enjoy this game; I certainly did!
