Description
Duel Jousting, 2.5D Dragon Jousting!
History
Project lead: Duel Jousting was born out of the need for a more creative retro remake. I grew up playing Joust and found it fitting to make something like it, but better and of course different. Lets face it, original Joust was too repetitive for today's standards so I improved on it in EVERY WAY while still retaining its original feel. Also as an indie developer I wanted to start with a game that has not been run into the ground in terms of a remake or clone. So in the end I created Duel Jousting to prove I have what it takes to be a great game developer. This game was a platform for me to get better as a game developer, and to keep the Joust gameplay alive. As retro game fans, we as a team hope you like the hard work that went into making this game.

- Standard mode consists of maps with stages, many new maps unlock as you beat stages in any one map (Over 30 stages)

- Duel Mode is a special mode with special rules: Each time you enter and are a different level you will be matched with an enemy at your level. Duel mode can only be done once per level since rewards are so high.
