Willy Games: The First 30 Years Quiz
|
|
|
|
|
Willy Games: The First 30 Years Quiz is a multiple-choice quiz which revolves around |
|
Manic Miner (MM) and Jet Set Willy (JSW) games for the ZX Spectrum created between |
|
1983 and 2013 or, to be precise, games which use the MM and JSW game engines, |
| as they do not all feature Willy as protagonist. Over a hundred of them have been |
|
gamma-released so far (a full list can be found on JSW Central). |
|
The game, designed using Jet Set Willy Editor v. 2.3.7 , makes a very unorthodox use of |
the JSW64 V game engine: to create a multiple-choice quiz rather than a platform game. |
| It is meant to be a "meta-tribute" to MM and JSW games, their authors and everyone else |
|
who has contributed to their development. |
|
|
|
The Quiz is divided into four sections: Easy, Medium, Hard and Expert, with 30 questions |
|
each. Only one answer is correct in each case. The player has 12 extra lives |
to start with, and 120 in-game minutes to complete the Quiz. |
They will fail if they run out of lives or out of time. |
Special thanks to John Elliott, for JSWED 2.3.7, the JSW64 game engine and his crucial help |
|
with some technical issues, and to Paul Equinox Collins, for his valuable comments on the |
|
Quiz questions. Please see also the text file accompanying the game for more |
acknowledgements, credits and all other pertinent information. |
