JACK AND THE BEAN STALK: THE GAME
TO PLAY THIS HIGHLY ADDICTIVE DEMO SIMPLY PRESS FIRE ON THE INTRO SCREEN AND
USE THE JOYSTICK TO MOVE LEFT AND RIGHT, PRESS UP TO JUMP AND FIRE TO FIRE AT
ANY ENEMIES THAT BLOCK YOUR PATH. YOU HAVE THREE GLOBBULES OF INVUNREBILITY
SHOWN AT THE TOP OF THE SCREEN. TO USE ONE OF THESE AND THEREFORE BE ABLE TO
MOVE FREELY PAST ANY ENEMIES OR ENERGY DRAINING GREEN BLOCKS PRESS 'C'. AT THE
END OF EACH STAGE YOU MUST ENTER THE BEAN STALK AND FACE A BEAN STALKER! THIS
IS AN EVIL MONSTER GAURDING THE MOUTH OF THE STALK. YOU ARE ARMED WITH A ROCKET
LAUNCHER AND ARE ABLE TO FIRE AT THIS BEAST BUT BEWARE, HE THROWS LIGHT AT YOU
AND IF A PIECE HITS YOU YOU AUTOMATICALLY DIE AND HAVE TO START AGAIN.

CREDITS ON THIS GAME ARE AS FOLLOWS:
PROGRAMMING, BACKGROUND, END ALIENS, SOUND ------- A.C.PORRITT
SPRITES ------- J.S.HAUXWELL
IN THE FUTURE FINISHED VERSION OF THIS GAME THESE WILL BE CHANGED AS WE ARE
HAVING A MUSIC PROGRAMMER TO PROGRAM ANY SOUND AND JAMIE IS TO RUN ALL OVER THE
GRAPHICS AND DESIGN SOME MORE.
JACK AND THE BEAN STALK: FINAL INFO
JACK AND THE BEAN STALK WAS ORIGINALY THOUGHT UP BY A.C.PORRITT AND
J.S.HAUXWELL ON DECEMBER 12 1988 AND WAS PLANNED AND THOUGHT OUT BEFORE BEING
ENTERED FOR THE STOS GAMESWRITER OF THE YEAR AWARD ON THE FIRST YEAR IT WAS
RUN. IT DID NOT WIN BUT IT WAS SAID TO BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR PUBLIC DOMAIN.
DATTRAX THEN DECIDED TO MAKE A GAME BY THE NAME OF DOWNTOWN JACK AND NOT PUT
JACK AND THE BEAN STALK ON PUBLIC DOMAIN. THE DEMO FOR DOWNTOWN JACK WAS
CREATED BUT AFTER A WHILE IT GOT PUT IN MY DISK BOX AND FORGOTTEN ABOUT. THEN,
AS I WAS READING AN ARTICAL ON THE STOS GAMES WRITER OF THE YEAR AWARD BEING
HELD AGAIN. DATTRAX NEEDED A GAME. THE GAME WAS JACK AND THE BEAN STALK.
STARTED FROM SCRATCH DATTRAX PRODUCED THEIR FIRST PUBLIC DOMAIN PLAYABLE DEMO.
IT IS THE GAME ON THIS DISK, IT IS, JACK AND THE BEAN STALK.
THE FINAL VERSION WILL BE RELEASED LATER THIS YEAR. ANYONE WHO GIVES MONEY
WILL (IF THEY WANT) HAVE THEIR NAMES ON OUR FIRST DEMO ON PUBLIC DOMAIN SO GET
THOSE NOTES SENT IN QUICK!
