we're not all nutters that have to visit 20 times a day 😁

I always thought that this was the kind of hobby that appealed to the inner mentalist at the very least. Perhaps not the kind of full blown nutters that eat glass and rub shit in their hair, but I digress... 😀

Just for completeness

Not knocking the full 90's version we have (or it's coders).... but such a pity that it was never pushed in the colour department at the time. This demo clearly shows it was possible.

That's pretty good indeed, looks like the sprites are mainly used for the snakes, not the warrior so potentially there could be a 2nd one... anyobdy knows if there's a 2 player mode ?

It’s @Tezz, so he knows more, but take a look at C64 version - fighting arena is made in 4 color bitmap mode, and fighters are drawn on this arena - they are not hardware sprites.

 

Hardware sprites are used for the creature which takes away fallen player body.

 

Game is perfectly doable on Atari. It’s a pity that @Tezz has stopped his progress.

Shame indeed, that would have been an excellent conversion!
