(Recommend clicking the game to start it)
Dueling Dragons is the virtual, 1-computer-2-players version of the playground game “Shotgun”, in which players attempt to defeat their opponent by playing one of 3 moves (shoot, shield, reload) in accordance to a beat, usually clapping twice.
In my version, two dragons are fighting each other while “We Will Rock You”s stomp-stomp-clap plays; The final clap is starts a short time window in which both players can perform an action using the keys displayed.
Each player starts with 3 health and no ammo. Health is displayed, but ammo isn’t, for tactical reasons.
A player can make 4 moves:
0) no action (don’t press a key or press it out of the timing window); left vulnerable
1) attack; will expend an ammo only if there is any, otherwise will become no action
2) shield; protects the player from damage
3) reload; increases ammo by one, can increase indefinitely. A reload is still successful even if the player is damaged.
If both players are attacked, both of them will suffer damage
The game continues until at least one player’s health drops to zero, after which a win screen appears for 3 seconds, and then the page attempts to refresh (recommend manually refreshing the page)
Of course, there are sound effects!
