Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu PC Engine

Résumé : ckie Chan is a side scrolling platform/action game by Hudson Soft and features the martial arts legend Jackie Chan (hence the name). The game tells the story of Jackie, a kung fu expert, and his girlfriend Josephine. One day, an evil sorcerer comes to China in an attempt to rule the country - he knows that he is no match for the two fighters, and he decides to kidnap Josephine in an effort to weaken Jackie. As expected, he hurries to her rescue, and thus begins an incredible adventure in which Jackie will fight legions of foes and eventually teach the evil sorcerer a very valuable lesson. Naturally, Jackie can punch, kick or jump - but he can also use four different special moves. They come in limited quantities and range from Tornado Attacks, Sky Attacks to devastating Spin Kicks. However, these attacks (as well as special items) must be collected along the way by kicking or punching item frogs, which also release energy bowls (extra life), bonus bells (access bonus stages) or psycho waves. The latter is another of Jackie's secret weapon - he can charge up (by holding the second action button) and release a limited amount of fireballs to inflict significant damages to surrounding enemies. Finally, enemies leave behind purple orbs that can be collected for extra lives. Jackie Chan consists of five large areas made up of several sub-stages each.
