BULL FIGHT



BULL FIGHT

Overview: Bullfight is a game of "man versus beast"
in the bullfight ring. One player plays the side of
the matador and the other plays the bull. In each
round, the matador must choose to stand to the left,
to the right, or behind the red cape. The bull must
choose to charge to the left, to the right, or right
into the red cape. The matador scores one point
for each time the bull charges and misses him, but
the bull scores one point for each time he hits the
matador. If the matador is skillful and lucky, he
will win the game by artfully evading the bull several
times. But the matador had better be careful-the bull wounds the matador with each successful charge. It takes the bull only a few hits to win the game.

Game Play - Single Player: After starting a single-player game session, each player must choose whether to play the matador or the bull. Once sides are chosen, Bullfight is played in rounds in which both the matador and the bull must select a move. The matador must decide whether to stand to the left of the red cape, to the right of the cape, or behind the cape. The bull must choose to charge to the left, to the right, or straight ahead. When both players have chosen their moves, the moves are compared to determine whether the bull has hit or missed the matador. If the bull has missed the matador then the matador scores one point. If the bull has hit the matador, then the bull scores one point. Occasionally (determined randomly within the game) the bull will brush by the matador and cause him to stumble; in this case, neither the matador nor the bull scores a point. Play continues in subsequent rounds until either the matador wins by scoring 3-5 points (depends upon the carrier) or the bull wins by scoring 2-3 points (depends upon the carrier).

Game Play - Two Player: In the two-player version of Bullfight, a virtual environment of rooms and lobbies is used to manage games between players. When a player first enters the Bullfight two-player version, the player is in the virtual Main Hall of this game environment.The player must move into a lobby and then into a room in this lobby in order to play a game. Bullfight has two distinct lobbies. One lobby is the "multiplayer arena" and is set up so that the environment itself will select an opponent for any player who enters this lobby. The second lobby has private rooms that a player can select specifically. The first lobby is appropriate for players who wish to "challenge all comers" while the second lobby is appropriate for players who wish to play against their friends. Bullfight provides players with multiple opportunities to move in and out of rooms and lobbies within this virtual environment. Once two players have entered the same room in this virtual environment, game play begins. Play proceeds the same as in the single- player version. However, at the end of the game, the Bullfight high score server records the winner of the game, and players are given an opportunity to send messages to each other.
