Karateka for the C64
18Jordan Mechner wrote the karate game Karateka, which became a success due to its realistic fighting animations and was therefore converted for numerous home computer systems and consoles. In 1985 the C64 version was published. The game title Karateka stems from the Japanese language and describes a fighter (Japanese: Budōka) who carries out the Japanese martial art karate - so short karate fighter. The game has a simple build-up: You walk from left to right and fight. When you do not play, a demo is shown. A small disadvantage is the permanant reloading of parts of the game.
Lets try it on the c64
