Trojan

Screenshots1 / 2

A pixelated NES-era scene shows two player characters engaged in combat on a green ground level against an urban backdrop of brown and dark blue buildings. The top HUD displays "PLAYER 1" with score 10000, "PLAYER 2" with score 0, time remaining 332, and a health bar showing orange segments. Golden scaffolding and wooden platforms create a layered level structure in the middle ground, with darker architectural silhouettes of skyscrapers visible against a blue sky. The sprite resolution is typical of 8-bit NES graphics, with limited color palette and distinct pixelation throughout.
