Mumbai: In a highly anticipated match between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Lucknow SuperGiants (LSG) on May 1, RCB emerged victorious with an 18-run lead. However, it wasn't just the thrilling encounter that captivated IPL fans worldwide. The intense heated exchange between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir during the match quickly went viral, making headlines and sparking numerous discussions and memes. Now, an anonymous coder has taken this incident a step further by creating a video game based on the heated spat.
The developer, who describes themselves as an occasional video game creator in their Twitter bio, showcased their amateur attempt at game development on GitHub. The game, built using Unity's game engine, features simplistic 2D graphics but has gained significant attention on social media. Despite its lack of polish, players have been enjoying the game as a casual pastime.
To play the game, users simply visit the associated website (Unity WebGL Player | KohliVsGambhir (aeroandzero.github.io)) and choose between Kohli and Gambhir. Once selected, they are placed on a cricket field with their chosen player. The game revolves around a brawl between the two teams, with players wielding cricket bats to attack each other.
Accompanying the teaser video of the game, the creator, who goes by the handle @aeronzero, tweeted, "I made a game so that they can fight properly." The video demonstrates the game's simplistic interface and gameplay, showing players from both teams engaging in bat-wielding combat.
The game concludes when only one player remains standing, and the winning player's team is declared the overall victor. If the player has chosen Kohli and successfully defeats Gambhir, they can then assist their teammates by navigating towards them.
While the game provides entertainment value, it's crucial to remember that it is intended purely for amusement and not to be taken seriously. It represents a lighthearted take on the Kohli-Gambhir drama, offering fans a fun diversion.
The video showcasing the game quickly went viral on social media, prompting numerous hilarious comments from viewers. Some have even suggested that the game should be expanded into a full-fledged app.

Gurugram CA held for slitting pregnant wife's throat with scissors
Jhajjar (PTI): A chartered accountant has been arrested for allegedly killing his pregnant wife by slitting her throat with a pair of scissors and trying to pass it off as a robbery attempt, police said on Wednesday.
According to police, Anshul Dhawan (31) got married to Mehak (27) in September last year. Both worked in Gurugram.
Police received a call on Sunday night reporting that some unidentified people tried to rob Anshul, took his car and kidnapped his wife, SHO Badli, Inspector Suresh said.
When police reached the spot, they found the woman's body near a dry canal with injury marks on her neck, he said.
Suspecting inconsistencies in Anshul's version of events, police took him into custody for interrogation. He confessed that he had killed Mehak with a pair of scissors, wearing gloves, over suspicions about her character, SHO said.
"During his questioning, it came to light that he had pre-planned the murder. His wife worked in a private bank in Gurugram. He had doubts that she talked to her friends, and he did not like it," SHO added. Following the confession, Anshul was arrested on Monday.
Further investigation into the matter is underway, police said.
Mehak's sister, Shruti, told the reporters that the family had doubts that Anshul was involved in the murder. She said, "We want justice; the killer should be hanged. He did not even think that his wife was two months pregnant."
She said on February 15, Anshul came to their house and stayed only for ten minutes and left with Mehal for Gurugram.
Shruti alleged that Anshul had pre-planned the murder.
