Is it still worth playing?
Tecmo's 1991 side scrolling platformer for the NES, later ported to the Atari Lynx, in which you control Ryu Hayabusa. Ryu can jump, hang, and climb up and down walls, and pressing jump while holding away from a wall makes him spring off. New here, he can also hang from pipes or ivy overhead and swing up on top or drop down. A life meter at the top of the screen falls when he is hit, and a life is lost when it runs out, when he falls into a pit or when the timer runs out. Walls to climb and pipes to hang from still make every level a space to move through vertically today.
