About

Kung-Fu Chivalry is a 2D side-scrolling martial-arts brawler for classic Macintosh, written by Albert Lin and originally released in 1992. Built in the mold of Double Dragon and Streets of Rage but dressed in an Eastern wuxia setting, it tasks the player with picking one of two fighters and punching, kicking, and combo-ing through stages of enemies before a boss showdown.GameplayChoose between two selectable fighters and progress through linear, side-scrolling stages of enemies, culminating in a boss encounter at the end. Controls are famously stiff - typical of early-90s Mac action games - but the fight system rewards practice. A documented continue cheat code (90179240) lets persistent players push past difficulty spikes.System and compatibilityPure 68k binary running on Mac System 1 through 5 originally, with confirmed compatibility on later systems through Mac OS 9. On a Mac OS 9.2.2 setup the game runs in 256-greyscale mode without sound; for full color and audio, period 68k hardware or an accurately configured Mini vMac/SheepShaver setup is recommended.UpdatesThe base game is from 1992, but a community-produced version 1.2 patch dated 2018-10-20 sits alongside the original on Macintosh Garden, smoothing some compatibility rough edges for modern emulation use.Historical noteKung-Fu Chivalry is one of the earliest Mac-native attempts at the side-scrolling beat-em-up genre, predating the Mac's mainstream color-gaming era. As such it is greyscale-friendly by design and represents a small but persistent thread of indie Asian-themed action shareware on the early Mac platform.
