Yie ar Kung-Fu developed by Konami and published by Imagine in 1985.

From C64 Wiki
“In the antique China, the home of Kung Fu, there are tough manners. According to Confuzius, the talented are supported and boosted, the incompetent falls by the wayside. But as it is proper for a main hero, he is fortunately a very talented boy. His training is advanced enough to compete in the last tests...
In the role of the Kung Fu fighter Oolong (black dragon) you need to face ten opponents of different type and with different weapons one after the other. If this challenge is overcome, you get the title of grandmaster, as the father already was…”

An Arcade conversion to the C64 and many other home computers of the time. The aim of the game is to defeat 10 warriors over and over again to get a high score. The game is endless and loops forever more. The game is fast and if you don't get the hits in, the computer player certainly will. Especially the later ones when they hit they can lock up your controls pretty much depleting all your energy in one move which can be super annoying.

The video opens up with Martin Galways rendition of Magnetic Fields Part 4 by Jean Michel Jarre. Once past that we get into the game where I show multiple loops with the intention of showing any extra difficulty the game may be doing.
