Let me say here first that I was concerned about whether this 40-year-old event is still 'fresh enough' in the minds of Americans for them to find the game offensive - that's why I asked people's opinions about whether they think it's a good idea to upload the full version before doing so. Anyone who finds such games offensive is advised to stop reading now. While I do find the game morally questionable, the designers deserve credits for shying away from focusing on pure "shock value" (which would be extremely easy to do, given the circumstances) - focusing instead on the physics behind the vent.

Ewing's studio was too small to take on such an ambitious project so he approached a friend of his at one of the creators of the controversial Carmageddon series, to see if he and the team at Stainless Games would partner in the development. "My friend is like the Charles Manson of games," says Ewing. "He loved the idea. So Stainless dusted the Carmageddon engine and together we did everything we to make the the most realistic interpretation of what happened that day as possible." The team carefully reconstructed the street in Dallas, Texas where JFK was shot, placing each lamppost in location, and setting the wind speed and direction to reflect that day's conditions.
Launched in November 2004, JFK: Reloaded was one of the first independently released PC download titles. A demo was made freely available while the full game cost $10, a forward-thinking business model at a time when digital distribution was only just beginning to emerge. In order to encourage people to invest in the full version, Ewing devised a competition around the game.
The games, available to download on the Net, costs $9.99 (5.35). As an added "incentive", Traffic is offering up to $100,000 (53,600) for the first person to recreate most accurately the three shots fired by Lee Harvey Oswald.
Players are first placed at the sixth-floor window in the book depository where they attempt to pull off the same sequence of shots as did Oswald during the brief period of time that the motorcade is visible from Oswald's vantage point. According to Ewing, the number of shots and the accuracy thereof are affected by the reload time for the bolt-action rifle and realistically modeled wind and dropoff. Afterward, players are scored on how closely they came to re-creating the original event; to encourage gamers to buy the $9.99 download-only product, Ewing says those who come closest to replicating the assassination can win up to $100,000. Players can see and instantly replay what they've done from a variety of witness locations, like the grassy knoll and the Zapruder film or review their bullet trajectories.
The aim of the game is to blow JFK's brains out, or failing that, blow Jackie's brains out. Players can see blood and gore flying out the holes they make with their virtual bullets. That is, of course, if they are good enough to score a hit on a small moving target obscured by tree branches using a World War Two, faulty-scoped, bolt-action rifle that the Italians discarded and which can't be reloaded in six-seconds once, let alone twice. But if anyone DOES succeed, there's prize money of $100,000.
Although they are based in Glasgow, Scotland, Traffic is aware of the passion in the U.S. surrounding the death of one of America's greatest heroes and is determined to promote the title respectfully while at the same time encouraging as many people as possible to take part in the challenge. Offered as a download only product from the internet site for $9.99, players are invited to participate in a global recreation of the assassination in order to disprove the conspiracy theorists once and for all. Traffic has offered an incentive of up to $100,000 for the first person to most accurately recreate the three shots fired by Lee Harvey Oswald.
