Karate Challenge

[G-type]

Last year, I found Glenn Schowrak's blog and sent him an email telling him I used to play his game: Karate Challenge. Does anyone else remember this game? It was disk based. I vaguely remember getting killed by the dragon.

Wow... No, I do not recall this one. Need to check the gamebase to see if it is there.

Looks kinda nifty.

I bought this disk from Asgard back in the day. . .

I bought the original release before Asgard started distributing it.

 

It's a well done game, although I didn't find much in the way of tactics on it... just middle kick and keep moving out of range. I don't know if it ever ends, at one point you start getting dragons at random.

I remember playing that. I think I have it around here on disk somewhere.

It certainly is! That has to be from one of the old Martin and Lewis movies. Dean Martin is standing at the back right corner of the ring with his arms on the ropes.

Has there ever been a port of Karateka (I played it on the Apple IIe back when I was bouncing b/t coding basic on my TI at home and Apple at school) for the TI? I would LOVE to get that game for the TI!

Never saw it on the TI, but I had it on the PC years back.

I bought it but felt disapointed when I played it... I guess I had to high expectation of the action in the game from the advertise.

no..but there's an extended basic "try" that isn't bad..but isn't the whole game. sprites and graphics are good
