Technocop is a Sega Mega Drive action game developed by Punk Development and published by RazorSoft. Released exclusively in the United States in December 1990, the game is a port of the titular 1988 Gray Matter game Techno Cop.

Due of the violent content, the game features a warning in the back of the box that does not recommend to players under 12 years old.

Gameplay

The game alternates between a 3D driving section and a side-scrolling run-and-gun section. In the driving section, your goal is to get through safely while destroying cars along the way. Use Up to accelerate, Down to brake, and B to shoot (the gun is mounted at the top right side of your vehicle). In the side-scrolling section, use A to jump and launch yourself forward and B to shoot. C switches between a gun for killing and a gun for netting. Hit Down to crouch (while crouching, you can only shoot the killing gun) and Up to stand back up.
