LA MESA, CA, USA - October 28, 2006 - My Game Company is pleased to announce the release of Dirk Dashing: Secret Agent 1.0 for Linux!



Dirk Dashing is the number one operative in the top-secret organization called G.O.O.D. (Government Operatives On Duty), whose mission is to protect the world from terrorists and power-mad megalomaniacs. His missions take him to many exotic locales, where he must face dangerous enemies, avoid traps, and solve baffling puzzles in order to save the day!



As Dirk Dashing, you have been assigned to recover the seven largest diamonds in the world, which have been stolen from a museum exhibit by the international jewel thief, Pique Pockette. Your mission takes you to the Bavarian Alps of Southern Germany, where you will explore thirty spectacular, hand-painted levels in search of the stolen diamonds. Along the way, you will collect stolen loot and battle a horde of E.V.I.L. agents who are also hunting for the diamonds.



Dirk Dashing features:



- No blood, no gore, no fist-fights - Dirk throws knockout gas grenades and uses non-lethal means to defeat his enemies
- 30 huge levels to explore, including 3 secret levels - each level is packed with secret areas and hidden treasures
- Cool spy gadgets that help you complete your mission
- A wide variety of hand-drawn, animated characters

- Parallax scrolling with up to 16 graphic layers, for an exciting 3D look
- A rich collection of zany cartoon sound effects

- Play using keyboard, joystick, or game pad
- Ability to save your game progress at any point
