Players who stay still (or move very little in general) or try to use the cover-based shooter style gameplay usually end up dead quick and repeatedly. Meaning gameplay generally favors fast reactions over good/sensible planning/tactics.
The first Twitch shooter video game was released on December 10, 1993.
Midway Games, Atari and Devolver Digital published most of these games.
