The Making of Karateka is THE Benchmark for Exploring How Old Games Are Made and Discussed!
65The last few years has seen a change in how we look at and talk about old games - not just focusing on the nostalgia, but their importance to gaming as a whole. The Making of Karateka focuses on Jordan Mechner's 1984 hit and is the first of Digital Eclipse's new series diving into how classic games were made.
So it's time to dive in and get learning not only about Karateka's development, but what it means to be a celebration of gaming's past.
Thanks for watching, and to Digital Eclipse for sending over a key to check this out!
Beyond The Scanlines is a series of explorations of *interesting* games (old and new) for classic home computer and console systems.
