Gun Fight

This is a cowboy shootout game, in which you have two cowboys on each side of the screen, with cacti and a constantly moving wagon you can use as cover.

Each man moves only up and down, firing at his opponent. The winner is the first to hit the other man five times, then the game goes back to the beginning.

Being written in machine code makes Gun Fight a very fast game, but once you have got the hang of it the lack of variation in scenery or any progressive difficulty levels makes it undemanding.

The graphics and sound are reasonable, with little gunshot sounds when firing and the death march when you get shot.
