I got through this fun puzzle platformer with the help of fellow YouTuber owlnonymous (   • MiSTerFPGA- Bug Hunter on the Acorn A...  ) whose video there is the entire playthrough of the Archimedes original.

This is actually an unfinished port as the programmer notes at the start of the video. The background of Level 17 (at 46:16) is seen again on Level 21 (1:10:34) called The Packing Shed, but all the platforms are invisible, so I guess it’s one of the earlier levels unimplemented. The level is still completable, oddly enough, though the whole game isn’t.

The levels don’t quite tally up with the original Archimedes game (if you compare with the info at this link: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/arch/952808-bug-hunter-moondash/faqs/54033), but are as follows:
The Living Room
The Kitchen Part 1
The Stairway
The Bedroom
The Hall
The Lounge
The Kitchen Part 2
The Bathroom
The Common Room
The Biology Lab
The Geography Room Part 1
The Geography Room Part 2
