Top 10 Games of 1984 | Number 5: Karateka #shorts

Karateka is a 1984 martial arts action game by Jordan Mechner and is his first published game, created for the Apple II while attending Yale University. The game was published in North America by Broderbund and in Europe by Ariolasoft. Along with Karate Champ and Yie-Ar Kung Fu (both also released in 1984), Karateka is one of the earliest martial arts fighting games. It was inspired by Japanese culture (Ukiyo-e art, Akira Kurosawa films, and manga comics) and by early Disney animated films and silent pictures.

The player controls an unnamed protagonist attempting to rescue his love interest, the Princess Mariko, from Akuma's castle fortress. The character walks and runs from left to right through a linear, side-scrolling level, dealing with attackers and obstacles, while moving deeper into the fortress. Each encounter with an enemy is one-on-one, as in a fighting game. Cinematic cuts show Mariko's situation and Akuma's actions prior to the player reaching them.

//About me:
Hello! My names Jesse but you may know me as GoreGamer. I'm looking at revamping my Twitch Page both look and feel. I'm also looking to "reinvent" my personal streaming as a whole, let me explain...

After 200+ Videos on my personal YouTube Channel I started to really love Video editing. I’m no pro but I know more than the average person and will use this to my advantage. Here is my “Master Plan”. I plan to once a week or twice a month make pre- recorded videos to add as a part of my stream. This would be News Breaks, StreamerAds, Story implementations and much more. I also plan to have proper intros and outros. As far as Story I plan to make a Weekly show where GoreGamer must play games in order to get his soul back from the Devil. There is much that I would like to add but wish not to disclose details until the time is right and I have everything ready for Launch. I hope that you can be a patron today and help me fulfill my dreams by giving back to you guys with the greatest show on the internet.

Here is where you come in. By becoming a patron you are not only showing that you support me and the Stream but you also share in my vision that I can produce a show that is unlike any other on twitch. No matter how much the amount it will help me in many ways. With you helping me I would like to help you in return standout in my stream and the outcome with its story. I have recently removed the Tiers in favor for a more voluntary method of donation. Again I thank you for any contributions you give or just by showing up in stream and saying "hi".
