Las Vegas, NV – One Las Vegas startup company, CanDax Productions, intends on changing America’s view of the political system with their first original title called “Battle for Presidency”. The video game, due out after the 4th of July, is a mix of political parody, fantasy, and gamer excitement. The concept- U.S. Presidents built to physical excellence with a modern twist of body art, special weapons and abilities, fight UFC style against another Presidential candidate. One gains votes, or points, after punching and kicking his way through the rounds to become the greatest President of all time. Players choose a ‘Candidate’, like Washington, Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Andrew Jackson, and even Barack Obama.
Theories reside in the political world to explain why the overall youth population avoids initiative. Maybe it’s due to teacher cuts, a lack of trust in the current political system, or maybe this election is just plain boring for anyone under 40? Whatever it is, civic responsibility is diminishing among young people. Nothing in Election 2012 resembles the power that the first Obama campaign had - with ‘Yes We Can’ bumper stickers slapped all over brand new Prii (Toyota's declared plural form of Prius) Could it be, that much like the paint on an ’08 Prius, our ‘Hope” has faded a bit. Who knows? Whatever the case, many young adults, even children, do not feel a considerable connection to politics and the history of our nation.
“Digital media and technology are the fastest growing affairs and people of all ages race to adapt quickly. If we can weave this technological growth into political matters in an entertaining way, we may ignite something. It’s important for the youth to feel included and respected in decision making whether it be in their homes or in their country.” – Candin Marks, President of CanDax Productions.
The game makers’ goal is to engage all people, including the youth, and incite a newfound interest in politics. They hope to collaborate with such politically driven forces as Rock the Vote to spread their ultimate cause. If they had their way, President Obama himself would try his hand in a “Battle for Presidency” game against Mitt Romney. The question is - would they play themselves?
