Ninja Golf

Ninja Golf is a 1990 golf video game developed by BlueSky Software and published by Atari Corporation for the Atari 7800. It was programmed by David A. Dentt and David R. Sullivan as one of the last releases for the console. A version for Atari 8-bit computers was in simultaneous production but was cancelled. In a gameplay mix between the sports and beat 'em up genres, the ninja player character hits a golf ball at the beginning of each hole, then fights enemies in side-scrolling sections to reach it. Each green is guarded by a fire-breathing dragon boss that the player must defeat by throwing shurikens.
