Duck Shoot (C64/VIC-20) Review

Duck Shoot is a remastered emulated version of the classic shooting game originally released in 1984 for the Commodore 64 and VIC-20 home computers. This game, developed by Mr Chip Software, brings back the fun and frustration of funfair-style shooting games. The game includes both the Commodore 64 and VIC-20 versions.

The gameplay is a classic shooting gallery where you have to shoot ducks, bunnies, owls, and plates to rack up points. The game has limited bullets, so keep an eye on your ammo. The ducks are quite tricky as they spring to life and fly down to try and eat your bullets right out of the UI! This enhanced version introduces a number of modern features including saving/loading the game at any point, support for most modern game controllers, full control remapping, and image scaling and smoothing options.
