The New Dimension is very proud to present "Tasered in the Crotch". A game which was originally created as a joke, but turned out even better than expected. The game was inspired by a funny twitter poll posted by Commodore Format  Archive and has also been launched onto Zzap 64!

- Full front end presentation, police themed
- Loading screen
- Crazy and hilarious gameplay
- Background animation
- 8 different colourful level screens to fight through with a level of difficulty
- Music and sound effects (Made in Goat Tracker V2.75)
- Hi score table
- PAL/NTSC compatible, and also compatible with theC64 fullsize and mini

The game

You are Chief Super Intendant Tracey Cisco, a fearless chief officer commander, who has been sent to Barkley city by his boss, the chief crime commissioner. Crime has been pretty rife recently. There have been a series of bank robberies and jewellery heists. Robbers are carrying bags filled with loot and they must be stopped immediately!

You command a team of highly trained police officers to clear this mess. They are armed with a brand new special state-of-the-art taser which is wirelessly detachable. This special device can also fire from a very good height - which your squad are on a very high structure, hoping the criminals can't see you all. Unfortunately, they can. 

Beware, during certain times, the villains will attempt to throw a smoke bomb at one of your officers in order to distract them with their operation. Should that happen, your officer must react quickly by firing a taser at it. If that wasn't bad, you must avoid tasering the innocent civilians as they pass by. 

If you taser an innocent civilian or a bomb hits one of your officers, a life will be lost. The game is over when either you let too many villains escape, or all of your lives are lost.

An extra life will be rewarded for every 20,000 points scored. 

Can you complete all 8 levels and show those villains who is boss, or will your poor performance demote you to office? There is  only one way to find out.
