Yie Ar Kung-Fu

Yie Ar Kung-Fu is a pioneering arcade fighting game developed by Konami, inspired by Bruce Lee's martial arts films. You play as Oolong (Lee in some versions), a young kung fu student fighting to become the grandmaster. Unlike the grounded realism of Karate Champ, this game introduced fantastical, fast-paced action with eleven diverse opponents, each with unique weapons and fighting styles . It also pioneered the health meter system, replacing the traditional point-scoring system of earlier fighting games . Opponents include Buchu (a flying sumo wrestler), Star (a shuriken-throwing woman), Nuncha (a nunchaku fighter), Pole (a staff master), Chain (a morning star wielder), and Blues (your mirror image) .

Commodore 64

Released in 1986 by Imagine Software, programmed by David A. Collier with graphics by Stephen Wahid . The C64 version features Martin Galway's celebrated title music—an adaptation of Jean-Michel Jarre's "Magnetic Fields IV"—combined with in-game music based on the original arcade arrangement . The game attempts to cram as much of the arcade original as possible into the conversion, unlike the simplified five-opponent NES version . Ocean Software had acquired the rights from Konami and released the game under their Imagine label, which was used primarily for arcade conversions . While the C64 port is closer to the arcade than many other home versions, one enemy who could clone himself was omitted due to hardware limitations . The game supports both single-player and alternating two-player modes .
