In cooperation with SpecNext Ltd, WASP Studio is bringing back to your screens the 1985 classic martial arts game "The Way Of The Exploding Fist". While maintaining its original gameplay and fascinating moves, multiple enhancements have been incorporated to this new incarnation

  • 8 handpainted (some of which are animated) screens, coming straight from the unreleased Amiga version, adapted for the Next by Steven Day
  • Configurable player colours (including gis and hair)
  • Amazing 9 channel game soundtrack by Richard Braithwaite together with professionally recorded digital music by celebrated guitarist Constantine Mihalos
  • Fully digital sound fx for each hit and miss
  • Enhanced opponent AI
  • Online high-score tables so you can share and compare with other Next (and compatibles) users

Best of all, for all KS1 ZX Spectrum Next users, this one is free thanks to Henrique Olifiers and SpecNext Ltd which bought the rights and made the production a reality! KS1 users need an account with their registered KS1 email, and matching name from the Kickstarter account in order to download the game for free.
