Key takeaways

Justice Duel belongs to computer science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Justice Duel to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Justice Duel from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Justice Duel is a platform game developed and published by Mega Cat Studios. It was released on the Nintendo Entertainment System in 2017. Players battle one another while riding cybernetically enhanced eagles. The game plays similarly to Joust.

Gameplay The player controls a cyborg version of a past President of the United States riding a cybernetically enhanced eagle to duel either against other human players or the game's AI. The player duels by firing projectiles at their opponents; a level is completed once there are no remaining opponents. Players can pick up power-ups in the form of mines and traps to use against opponents. Justice Duel supports multiplayer for up to four players through the NES Four Score.

Development Besides Joust, the game's developers cite TowerFall and Balloon Fight as having inspired elements of the game's design.

Evercade release Mega Cat Studios released Justice Duel in a compilation cartridge for the Evercade, along with several other titles from the studio, including Little Medusa, Log Jammers, and Coffee Crisis.

Child's Play edition In 2018, Mega Cat Studios released a special edition of Justice Duel to raise money for the charity Child's Play; it debuted at PAX East and was part of the Omegathon tournament. This special edition of the game features two additional playable characters: Della and Rod, who ride a duck and a quail, respectively.

Reception Justice Duel has received a generally positive reception from the press, being praised for its aesthetic and fast paced gameplay.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Justice Duel

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Justice Duel claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In computer science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Justice Duel before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Justice Duel ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Justice Duel

In research: Justice Duel appears in computer science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Justice Duel in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Justice Duel is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2017 video games, Eagles in popular culture, Fiction about cyborgs, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Justice Duel outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
