NORTHAMPTONSHIRE, UK Weds 21st January 2009
So you think you’re meant to be something more? Something Great? You think you have the skill and determination to be a hero? Well Prove It!
When fate comes knocking will you hide under your bed, whimpering, or will you stand up and be counted? Will you run away or look danger in the face and say “I accept the challenge?!”
This is what has just happened to CID the Dummy. His creator’s daughter has been kidnapped and CID has been chosen to be the one to take up the fight! Will CID decide the task is too scary and stay in his job as a Crash Dummy or will CID suit up in his specially made suit and take on D-Troit head-on!
About CID The Dummy
A star is born and he's made to last. CID THE DUMMY makes his debut in Oxygen Games’ all-new action platformer. CID THE DUMMY is sure to grab you with its enjoyable, fun gameplay, featuring a totally original character with charisma and lots of moves. CID has many different fighting styles with which to battle enemies, from unarmed combat to weapons like the Bazooka that can freeze, hit and burn.
• Interact as only a crash impact dummy can. Climb walls, swing on ropes, burn obstacles, destroy exploding barrels, use lifters, bounce on springs and with a neat head butt destroy walls all in stunningly realized environments. Game environment interaction is the most important part of the gameplay.
• CID's world is swarming with a host of fearfully fun enemies like the Dumper, Cursed Dummy and the bizarre Failed Experiment.
• Apart from fighting enemies, the player will enjoy solving puzzles, avoiding traps and using acrobatic skills to get out of dangerous situations!
CID The Dummy will be released on Wii™, Playstation®2, PSP®System, and PC.
