Next U.S. President To Be Decided By Kung-Fu Tournament
If only this were real life and not just a videogame. The people over at AtomFilms have created Kung-Fu Election, a fighting game starring eight of the current U.S. Presidential candidates.
The flash-based game comes fully equipped with an opening cinematic starring a young kung-fu master/rawk artist jamming to the current political issues.
I’ve gathered from the opening that Bush and Cheney are the end bosses of the game. They are shown a few times throughout the rock anthem, but are not selectable characters. I also suck enough that I’ve never made it very far up the tournament ladder to find out for sure.
The controls are pretty simple, with Z, X, and C being your attack buttons, spacebar blocks, and the directional buttons move your character. There are also two special moves in the form of a projectile attack and a power charge.
Contrary to what this picture may lead you to believe, Mrs. Clinton does not
generally jump around with blood spewing from her vagina.
While I don’t think the game itself is all that fun, it is well done and has quite a few political gags in there for anyone that follows the news. You can check the game out at www.kungfuelection.com, or through the Atom Films homepage.
