- Title:
-
- Karate Joe is an Excellent-Fast-Arcade-Action Game for Windows.
-
- Mission:
-
- You are Karate Joe and you must save the world from itself.
-
- Development History:
-
- I love to program and I love animation. Many moons ago I did
- program nice games and what-nots for DOS but there was such a
- flood of games and what-nots for DOS that me work went unnoticed.
- The most I could hope for was to end up share-ware at Lucky Larry's
- Computer Shop at the bottom of the pile - just under all the dBase 4's
- and Corel Draw! 4's (what is it with version 4's anyway?).
-
- That was yesteryear. Now Microsoft has taken over the
- world and everything has moved to Windows. Everything -- except for
- games that are worth unzipping.
-
- I have noticed that there are no good games for Windows.
- Sure there are plenty of card games. But frankly,
- I'm sick of playing solitar and tic-tac-toe so I invented Karate Joe.
- Something fast with good animation and sound without bouncing out to
- DOS. (By the way, I've looked at all the other Windows games that
- are available. I've either bought it or down-loaded it. From what
- I've seen, Three-Finger Charlie can count the number of games that
- are worth a rip on one hand.)
-
- I hope you enjoy the demo. There are 16 different levels in the
- "for sale" version of Karate Joe. This demo lets you play 2 of them.
-
- Please, Please, Please let me know what you think of Karate Joe.
- I need to know if I'm on the right track and if this is kind of software
- is worth the trouble of advertising and marketing. I'd like to what you
- think of Karate Joe.
-
- Have a great day! (really)
