Why does "Mr. President" look like a chimp? Racism aside, it looks like somebody took the Bush-Faces and just re-colored them. Also what's this country-esque music and the bull? The message seems to be that 'Mr. President' would be quiet okay if he would just run for this bull's party (whoever that might be, in this oh so subtle world) - and who buy their supporters anyway? I'm confused as to what to think of this from a political point of view. So i will skip that and just rate the game: Lame, 2 stars.

Have to agree with dr c owen, decent game, but...that's it? I'm done already? Think this might be the first launch game I haven't rated at least 4. Good start, but a 4 or 5 is going to have a lot more to it.

I would like to change the keys from the arrows to wasd and the kite and to up and right on dpad. Would you be able to do this at all? Please.

...we ended up with most of the governments money in WWI and WWII from production and selling. so that was about, i dunno, anywhere from 900 billion to 1 trillion dollars? in less then seventy years, we have over 2 trillion in debt? I blame you, 2000-2008 Bush.

I was expecting some political comedy here, but there really isn't any. There is no witty humor or social commentary. It's just any other launch game with the President instead of a penguin/hedgehog/turtle. And it's not as good as any of those either because it lacks the depth that those games have. It can easily be completed in less than half an hour and even then it's just not as fun to play as some other launch games. It's not a bad game, but we have come to expect more from launch games than this. 3/5 Wait, the national debt is a million dollars? That's not so bad... Actually, that's probably the best we've had it. And second of all, do you think that rocket pogo-stick is the reason we're a million(?) dollars in debt?

There's no strategy to this. Any obstacles that you could speed up or slow down for aren't on screen long enough for you to make adjustments for them. No entertainment here. Avoid game.

Of course, the dollar-pogo-stick! Man, there must be a lot of economists out there embarrassed to not have thought of that.
