Wow, all these famous games were all from the same sw house? I didn't know it! It's great that they have been ported to the Game Boy.

Thank you very much for the mention, it would be great news if one of the boys from Tynesoft would come forward and see what joy they brought to people 35-37 years ago and that joy is still going on.

Jet Set Willy was, is and always will be the spookiest/most haunting game on C16/Plus4 for me. Somehow the huge house full of bizarre sets and creatures and all the mood in the game is unsettling. happy It has got as much of a horror atmosphere as an 8 bit game can get.

@Lavina you totally nailed its atmosphere, that's the reason why on the bottom of the game's page linked by you, we shared the short mockumentary "Spectrum Diamond" which attempts to describe that tiny sensation of altered alienation as seen from the point of view of a child player.

Spectrum Diamond is incredible, I simply LOVE this kind of products. Only thing, I thought it was a full-fledged documentary, not a mockumentary at all. So - apart from the atmospheric setting - this is not Matthew Smith's true story, is it? :/

Here I found a gameplay video of the conversion, in which the creator receives the collection in a physical edition.
