But nevertheless you'll get a lesson from teacher
Kick - Punch - Chop - Block

We gonna move down to the next ya jockey now

Duck and jump - Turn and pose - Duck and turn - Jump and punch

Ikari Warriors was performance art. You'd throw a grenade as the enemies ambushed you, and if you timed it right you'd get half a dozen of them evenly spaced across the screen, all going into their spin-around-and-fall-over death animation simultaneously. We used to call that one the North Vietnamese Formation Dying Team.
Ah, nostalgia.
