A YouTuber upgraded the Laser Tag to become 'Taser Tag'

If you’re a fan of the game ‘Laser Tag’, you would somehow like this new version of it. Michael Reeves, an American software writer/ YouTuber, has added some spice into the game and it’s kind of psychotic. He actually programmed the game’s equipment to shoot out electricity while the players are shot. Let’s find out how!

If you’re not familiar with the game, Laser Tag requires every player to be equipped with an infrared beam gun and a vest that is infrared-sensitive, and try to shoot the opponents to gain points. Now, the YouTuber has programmed the vests to give electrocution that will cause the players to spasm briefly. You may take a look at the action-packed video below and see the players' reactions!

From the video, it looks like the amount of electricity is still acceptable that the players who got shot are still laughing and giggling. The electric shocks actually made the game more fun (does this mean I’m sick?) by involving real pain as punishment. Of course, the equipment is not for sale on the market as it was ‘exclusively’ programmed by Reeves to entertain the YouTube viewers.

There is also a suggestion saying he should use the ‘invisible cloak’ material to make a shield for the players. The material reflects light so it is able to block the infrared beam from reaching your vest and brings new excitement to the game.

I would personally like to try out the ‘enhanced’ version of Laser Tag, will you dare to join me? Let us know your opinion on our Facebook page! For more cool tech news, stay tuned to TechNave.com.
