Thank you for your reply. I respect all those ideas. I personally like this game more than Buckshot Roulette under the premise that you are trapped with one other pitiful person and forced to do a sinister medical trial. You want to stay alive rather than hurt anyone, but by protecting yourself you're allowing the other guy to die. But I do see where you’re going with those other ideas and they are interesting.
(In the first version I built on this premise and used 4 hammers on death pills to purposely keep us both alive into round 5 as an easter egg. I would need to remove 7 death pills to have the smallest chance get to round 6.)
