Joust 2: Survival of the Fittest is an arcade game developed by Williams Electronics and released in 1986. It is a sequel to Williams' 1982 game Joust. Like its predecessor, Joust 2 is a 2D aerial combat game with platforms to land on. The player uses a button and joystick to control a knight riding a flying ostrich. The object is to progress through levels by defeating groups of enemy knights riding buzzards. Joust 2 features improved audio-visuals and new features such as mutant buzzards created by eggs falling into lava, the ability to transform from an ostrich to a flying horse, and differently themed levels. Waves no longer seamlessly flow into each other; the gameplay is divided into separate screens with transitions between them.

  • Joust 2: Survival of the Fittest is an arcade game developed by Williams Electronics and released in 1986. It is a sequel to Williams' 1982 game Joust. Like its predecessor, Joust 2 is a 2D aerial combat game with platforms to land on. The player uses a button and joystick to control a knight riding a flying ostrich. The object is to progress through levels by defeating groups of enemy knights riding buzzards. Joust 2 features improved audio-visuals and new features such as mutant buzzards created by eggs falling into lava, the ability to transform from an ostrich to a flying horse, and differently themed levels. Waves no longer seamlessly flow into each other; the gameplay is divided into separate screens with transitions between them. John Newcomer led development again, which began to create a kit allowing arcade owners to convert an existing cabinet into another game. The original Joust used a horizontal monitor, but Williams chose a vertically oriented screen for the kit as a result of the design's popularity at the time. Released during the waning days of the golden age of arcade games, Joust 2 did not achieve the success that Joust reached. The game was not ported to contemporary home systems, but was later released as part of arcade game compilations. (en)

  • 《鸵鸟骑士2:适者生存》(英語:Joust 2: Survival of the Fittest)是由开发并发行于1986年的街机游戏,游戏是威廉斯1982年游戏《鸵鸟骑士》的续作。和其前作类似,《鸵鸟骑士2》是一款使用二维画面的平台游戏。玩家使用按键和摇杆控制骑在飞行鸵鸟上的骑士。游戏目标是打败骑着秃鹰的骑士并穿过关卡。《鸵鸟骑士2》较前作的声音和视效进行了改进,并增加了新的游戏元素。 游戏使用了较首作《鸵鸟骑士》更高级的硬件,并加入了新元素。约翰·纽康姆再次指挥开发,并开始创作一个转换套件,允许街机主将机体转化到另一个游戏。威廉斯斯选择了一个垂直方向的屏幕套件,致使成为了那时人气的设置。作为在日渐式微时发行的游戏,《鸵鸟骑士2》没有达到像《鸵鸟骑士》那样的成功。随后作为街机合辑游戏之一,游戏在家用游戏机平台发行。 (zh)
