Space Duel is a multi-directional space shooter published by Atari, Inc. for the Atari 7800 in 1982. Built on the foundation of Asteroids, the game trades rocky space debris for vibrant geometric shapes that shatter into smaller fragments when fired upon, offering fast-paced arcade action in single-player or simultaneous two-player modes.
How to Play
Navigate your ship through open space and destroy all geometric targets in each wave while dodging hostile enemies like fuseballs and space stations. Rather than relying on hyperspace, your ship comes equipped with an energy shield to absorb incoming threats.

Tips
Use your shield sparingly. The energy shield protects against collisions and enemy fire, but drains quicklyโsave it for moments when dodging is impossible.
Prioritise high-threat targets like fuseballs early in a wave before the screen becomes crowded with fragmented geometry.
