The game is a sequel to Jet Set Willy (1984), and is the third game in the immensely popular Miner Willy Series. The first game in the series, Manic Miner, was written by Matthew Smith, as was its sequel Jet Set Willy ('JSW'). Jet Set Willy II: The Final Frontier was not written by the original programmer, Matthew Smith, and was instead developed by Derrick P. Rowson. Jet Set Willy II: The Final Frontier is an expansion of the original JSW rather than a new game unto itself. Its map is primarily an expanded version of the original mansion, with only a few new original elements over its predecessor, several of which are based on rumored events in JSW that were in fact never programmed (such as being able to launch the titular ship in the screen called "The Yacht" and explore an island). Willy is blasted from the Rocket Room into space, for which 33 rooms he dons a spacesuit. The original JSW game was subject to much hacking and cheating. Jet Set Willy II: The Final Frontier pays homage to this and includes a screen - appropriately called Cheat - that can only be accessed by cheating. Control of Willy also differs from the original: - the player can jump in the opposite direction immediately upon landing, without releasing the jump button, - Willy now takes a step forward before jumping from a standstill and - the Willy character is mapped differently, so although Willy looks the same, some previous "safe spots" in JSW are now hazardous to the player in Jet Set Willy II: The Final Frontier - the tall candle in The Chapel for example.
