The wait is over; Yie Ar Kung-Fu for the ColecoVision is finally here!

The ColecoVision version is based on the MSX engine, but with the Famicom graphics. Completely exclusive to this version is the 2 players versus mode. Game comes complete with box, manual and cartridge.

I will contact pre-orders this week, and will start shipping next Monday, March 21st. Thanks a lot guys, for allowing this game to become a reality!

BTW, I am now using AtariAge supplied PCBs. They offer a higher level of quality than my previous PCBs...

 

 

The place is ancient China. The time is the end of the Ching Dynasty! The entire kingdom is in turmoil because of the dastardly deeds of the villainous Chop Suey Triad Gang.

In a desperate attempt to eliminate the Chop Suey Triad Gang, the hero of our story, Lee The Kung Fu Master, has secretly entered the Gang's castle headquarters - the dreaded Bamboo-Shoot Pagoda!!

But...once in the castle, LEE has to face the Chop Suey Gang's deadliest martial arts experts and defeat them one after another: Wicked Wang, the quarterstaff (bojutsu) fighter; Terrible Tao, the flame wielder; Chen The Chainfighter; Lady Lang, expert with the razor-sharp throwing knives (shuriken); and finally Wily Wu, the mystery man!!

Will Lee be able to use his Kung Fu techniques to defeat these evil enemies and restore peace to Imperial China?

 

- Large, colorful characters and detailed backgrounds bring the martial arts action to life

- Play against the computer in story mode or challenge a friend in exclusive two player battles

- Perfect your Kung Fu techniques in the special bonus stage

Hi!

I would like to thank everybody here for being so patience and for the huge support. This release wouldn't be possible without the help of all of you.

I would also like to apologize for my lateness in replying emails (or in some cases, for the complete lack of answer). Please understand I spend a lot of my [free] time with all these CV projects, so sometimes it's just hard to keep with all messages... Anyway I would like to send a big thank you for all people sending me emails with words of encouragement. You really keep me motived, guys.

Now I am finished with Yie Ar Kung-Fu I will have some free time to dedicate with my next projects. Coming soon is our new Opcode Magazine, a online publication which is being edited by my friend Troy Whelan. We are trying to make it an interesting read for all CV fans, so stay tuned.

I am also starting some rework on Magical Tree, which will include new surprises.... And finally I will unveil a.... very interesting project in a few days...

Geez, I forgot to ask: did someone find the easter egg I hid in Yie Ar Kung-Fu?

 

Eduardo

[cimerians]

I can't wait for the Pac-Man collection....

 

[King_Salamon]

Quick question... are these still available? I'd like to get one.. then I'll hunt down the mystery easter egg! What's the cost? I'm in!

[holygrailvideogames.com]

I missed this release as well. Is this still available?

[Osmeroid]

Ditto as above - I'd really like a copy. I've just got my paws on a working CV....
