Title Screen


Karateka

Developer:

Publisher:
Brøderbund Software
Platform:

Released in US: 1984

Karateka is a rotoscoped side-scrolling brawler in which a stiff-legged karate man kicks everything. Even birds.


Upside-Down





While Karateka only takes up Side A, Side B contains a copy of the game modified to play upside-down. According to Jordan Mechner, this was a practical joke by Brøderbund so tech support could have the delight of telling someone that their game was upside-down because...they put the disc in upside-down. Duh.
