I’ve already covered the PC version of Bruno R. Marcos‘ marvellous homebrew sequel, Bruce Lee II, on this site, but unfortunately the game download has been unavailable for some time. I was surprised and delighted, therefore, to discover that Bruce Lee II had been ported to the Commodore 64 by Jonas Hulten, and remains available to download and play to this day (at the time of writing, at least).
The C64 port of Bruce Lee II is more or less identical to the PC original, and is great fun to play, for one or two players. One thing this conversion does have, that the PC version doesn’t, is some cool intro music on the title screen.
Whether you’re familiar with Datasoft‘s original Bruce Lee or not, Bruce Lee II is well worth seeking out and playing, as it’s a fantastic tribute to Ron J. Fortier and Kelly Day‘s classic platform beat ’em up. And if you look around you might find this, the original Bruce Lee, and a second homebrew sequel, called Return of Fury, bundled together as one release.
Bruce Lee II is homebrew game design and coding at its finest!
