Duel Shootout is a local 2 player arcade game. The Rules are simple, Shoot your opponent to score a point. First to 7 (points) wins. Each Player has 2 bullets in their chambers and each can retrieve their own bullets back after being fired.

The Game was inspired by the arcade game Gun Fight. More specifically, its menu; the character on screen shoots a bullet at the 'insert coin' text and the bullet bounces off it. An idea was born!

Found a handy Unity C# 'tool' called Reflect (Vector2.Reflect), which simulates the bullets in-game ricocheting/bouncing off of walls.
