Oh My Stars, Jet Set Willy Online Is Out

- Like it says in the title, I had no idea that, as part of The Way Of The Rodent's Xmas update, the much-vaunted Jet Set Willy Online has been released.

It's explained: "I did this for a laugh, a bunch of images imagining a real world in which Jet Set Willy went on-line. In which Jet Set Willy went multiplayer. I though it was funny. But then I thought 'actually, no, it stupid and daft and crackers' and that's when I realised that it really ought to be real."

"And guess what? It damn-well is - yep, we've made Jet Set Willy: Online. You can play it with mates. They can be in other rooms while you do that. In other houses in fact. Other continents if you're some sort of crazy internationalist." This is previously covered on GSW, and completely unofficial, but it still rocks.
