Developed by Enigma Interactive. Back in the ’90s, Double Dragon studio Technos worked on a bunch of Popeye video games, including Popeye: Ijiwaru Majo Sea Hag no Maki for the Super Famicom and Popeye Beach Volleyball for the Game Gear.

“I see it as a reflection of my own lack of effort in promoting my work”. When you discuss the soundtrack to the Streets of Rage series, one name is likely to crop up first: Yuzo Koshiro.
