Gun Dealer
Gun Dealer is an action arcade game released in 1990 by Dooyong. Players control a character navigating stages filled with enemies, using firearms to shoot through waves of opponents. The game supports two-player simultaneous play, allowing co-op action throughout its levels. Players move across scrolling stages, collecting weapons and power-ups while defeating enemies that approach from various directions. The controls use a joystick for movement and buttons for shooting and other actions. Stages increase in difficulty as players progress, with different enemy types and environmental hazards appearing across levels. The two-player mode lets friends tackle the game together, adding a cooperative dimension to the shooting gameplay.
