There are many webpages with no apparent purpose. This is probably one of them. This page contains a full map of the game Jack Attac (aka Jack Attack), published by Bug Byte sometime in the early eighties (1983?) for the BBC B and Electron home computers. Perhaps inspired by Jet Set Willy the goal of the game was to collect keys & fruit so you can ultimately rescue the princess (trapped behind the green door in the room next to the one you start in). Unfortunately I don't think the game can be completed without a cheat as it doesn't seem to be possible to leave the room with the green key without dying. |

Technical Stuff
The map was produced by using the integrated debugger in the MESS emulator to find
the memory locations that control the player location ($98 for X, $99 for Y) and the current room ($F8, 0 for bottom left
room, $2c for top right) and then 'beaming' to each room in turn to take a screenshot.
You can download the Jack Attac image from the emulation archive site Stairway To Hell.
