Karateka or International Karate, or even Way of the Exploding Fist, or even... Too many to choose from. There were some seriously classic games made for the Commodore 64. I still have a huge stack of them lying about, for sentimental reasons.

Karateka - it means: One who practices Karate.

Karateka! Wow... that takes me back. It's one of the few games I ever played to completion. Old Apple IIe version for me.
