Run, Jump, Attack, (Die), Repeat! A 2D Local Multiplayer PVP with various maps, characters, and game modes. Duelist! is a Single or Multiplayer 2D Platformer Fighting game where you can fight as unique characters including Assassin, Hunter, Knight, and more. You can play against your friends in 1v1 Mode or Obliteration Mode, or play together (or by yourself) in Survival Mode. The game is in the Alpha stage, and it will be receiving updates in the future. **NEW UPDATE** Construction map for 1v1 mode! + other small tweaks ## Game Modes **1V1** Compete in 1v1 matches against your friends! Select your favourite character and fight! Defeat your opponent first or knock them off the map before the timer runs out! **SURVIVAL** Play by yourself or with a friend as you beat wave after wave of enemies. Get health packs to heal yourself up, before facing a Giant Zombie Boss! Either play up to 10 handcrafted rounds, or continue to Endless mode! **OBLITERATION** (Coming soon!) Just like 1v1, but with a twist! Win the game by getting more points than your opponent. Earn points by damaging your opponent, but be quick! After a small amount of time, your points will start ticking down.
