Jazz Jackrabbit 1 - time limit doesn't work

[laffer]

I'm wondering - is there any version of Jazz 1 where you actually die once the time is up?

When the time is up here, nothing happens. It just stops at 0 but I don't die.
I have the CD version of the game... I tried version 1.0 as well, same result.

It says in the manual you're supposed to die when the time is up... so I guess this is a bug?

If you play at difficulties other than Easy you do.

I play on medium, but I don't die.

EDIT - I just tested to make sure. On 'hard', I indeed die when the time runs out. But on medium, I don't. It's supposed to be this way, then?

EDIT 2 - damn, should have read the manual more thoroughly before opening this topic -

HOURGLASS: Gives you some extra time to secure the area you're in. You'll
need these if you're playing on HARD or TURBO, where there's a time-limit!
