Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

November 6, 2008

If the Obama honeymoon isn't over for you yet, check out Super Obama World.

For now you can play an Alaska level or head to the Republican National Convention. But more levels are promised, including Illinois, Arizona and Washington, D.C.

If you like the very 8-bit looking online platformer, they've got merch you can buy as well.

I played one level and couldn't beat it. It's tough as friggin' nails. Although it's hilarious (USA flag lapel pins as coins, tiny pigs as Goombas and stompable women's clothing dressers giving out 150,000 points after their defeat), there's way too many ? blocks and you die in one hit.

Game on, brothers and sisters.

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

Well yeah Leet, it's a Mario copy. Mario died in one hit.

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

Actually, if you had al lthe right power ups he'd get as many as three.

Cape Mario FTW.

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

 Ya i think all the game needs are power ups and being able to swim... then it would be a nice match up to Mario

not sure what the power ups could be... perhaps something like

 

mushroom = Obama's symbol

Cape = American flag

fire flower = throw liberal newspapers at people

Star = Race card

XD

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

Ok, Mario Sans power ups. Original mario.

The art is pretty nice, they took thier time finding way to fit palin jokes. Level 3 is called "I can see Russia From my house!"

I'm sorry, but I simply have to get this off my chest. There are far too many so-called 'journalists' these days who seem to think that things like fact-checking and verification are optional. Because of this, I feel it is my duty to bring to light certain inaccuracies in this story.

 

It is not very '8-bit looking'...

 

It is supposed to be 16-bit looking.

 

Thank you.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, but you know what they mean.

Obama can't swim 0.o

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

Not to be racist, but statistically could be true.

But, everyone knows black people can swim, GTA told me!


Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

Haha, after being on a swim team for many years, and African American family members, some are, most are not.  Of course I do have an bias view since I was on the swim team for many years.

I don't know how many people who were born and raised in NYC, LA, or bas-sack-nowhere and how good they typically swim.  It could just be that 1 out of 10 people can swim.

Wait, I taught swim lessons and life guarded them too...  Yeah, it just depends on what the parents raise them around in all honesty.  Not many people from the slums get to learn to swim.  Swim lessons cost an arm and a leg.  It doesn't matter what color your skin is, just around my area that stereotype is true most often.

Gone in 60 Seconds had a good quote that reinforced that stereotype too. "I can't swim, I know I can't. So you know what I do? I stay my black ass out the pool!"  Haha, that guy is so funny.  I know I can't dive, so I keep my skinny ass off the diving board.  I broke my nose last time I tried.  Of course I am straight, so that already hurts my odds.

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

Thats hallirous and Ironic. I was going to send a link about this earleir becasue i found the game this morning. So many references to what happend in this election and this is a very fun game. Looking forward to the expansion of it.

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

It's too bad the game is no fun.  Obamio moves WAY too slowly and the enemies move erratically, which is a frustrating combination in a one-hit-death game.

Re: Super Obama World: Play the Game, Buy the Shirt

I couldn't get past the first stage....mainly cause I kept throwing Obama into the very first pit I came across.

JDKJ: Which could be explained by both (a) and (b).
Posted 11/07/09 at 10:56am
Austin_Lewis: JDKJ: You forgot C) the fact that, for some reason, every time he did something that would suggest he shouldn't be in the military, let alone an officer, higher ups ignored it or let it slide.
Posted 11/07/09 at 10:51am
JDKJ: Part of the problem is, I believe, that (a) the Army had a lot of time and money already invested in him and which they were unwilling to simply write-off and (b) an increasing need for the type of skills and services he provided.
Posted 11/07/09 at 10:48am
JDKJ: And that even if he was begging not to get cut loose, he was apparently a real good candidate for being cut loose, anyway.
Posted 11/07/09 at 10:11am
JDKJ: @chada: And while Kennedy once noted that there's usually more than enough blame for everyone to get a slice, the possibility that the Army was unwilling to cut loose someone who was asking to get cut loose could be a factor.

JDKJ: I'm no psychologist, but I'm told that crazy people have a tendency to do crazy things.
Posted 11/07/09 at 10:03am
chadachada321: Whoops, was out of the convo for awhile. I do wonder what type of ammo he used etc, but the real issue is WHY he did it, not HOW
Posted 11/07/09 at 09:56am
JDKJ: But if it turns out that they actually did, they'll have Hell to pay.
Posted 11/07/09 at 09:45am
JDKJ: And I'd tend to rule out the possibilty of FN Herstal supplying restricted ammunition to someone merely because they're ordering it from a military base.
Posted 11/07/09 at 09:37am
JDKJ: I know you don't leave your gated community and get around much in dark alleys, so you may be surprised to learn that there's this thing called "the black market" where, if you've got enough money, ain't too much of anything which can't be bought.
Posted 11/07/09 at 09:36am
Austin_Lewis: Or, maybe he or someone else at the base ordered the SS190 from FN Herstal.
Posted 11/07/09 at 09:32am
Austin_Lewis: the hands of private owners. They run about 300 dollars minimum for a box of 50, and boxes of AP 5.7 are extremely scarce, mainly residing in the hands of Class III stores or individuals who for one reason or another got a demo box of it.
Posted 11/07/09 at 09:30am
Austin_Lewis: There are other firearms that fire the 5.7. However, I too would like to know where he got the ammo and what kind was used. Maybe Hasan, planning not to live through this, went out and bought one the boxes of SS190 that are floating around in
Posted 11/07/09 at 08:44am
JDKJ: And it isn't yet clear what type of ammunition Hasan used. It's strange that he purchased a gun but didn't purchase ammunition for it at the same place and time. Especially because the calibre required is peculiar to the actual gun.
Posted 11/07/09 at 08:40am
JDKJ: We can sit here all day and debate the relative merits. However, I think the events of recent days suggest that an FN Five-Seven ain't exactly the same as that Daisy BB gun you got for Christmas when you were a kid.
Posted 11/07/09 at 08:38am
Austin_Lewis: JDKJ: tumbling can be quite dangerous. However, the rounds that commonly tumbled were variants of the SS90. Civilian ammo tends to tumble far less commonly.
