The 2020 Presidential election is well underway and the Democratic portion of the race has essentially been whittled down to two competitors: former Vice President Joe Biden and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders. Sanders has managed to appeal to a significant young voter base, which has led to the Senator interacting with a fairly young-appealing hobby: video games. Bernie has been seen voicing support for video game industry unionization and he even started his own Twitch channel. Now, the Senator has been immortalized in the time-honored tradition of Super Mario clones with a new Super Bernie World indie retro platformer game.

Developer Game Devs For Bernie has recently released its Super Bernie World game for free on PC through Steam and itch.io, it gaining quite the attention on both platforms in recent days. The game, an obvious parody on Super Mario World, has players control the jumping Vermont Senator as he fights his way throughout America. Along the way, enemies such as MAGA-hat Goombas and Koopa Troopas – meant to look like a turtle-y Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell – will be encountered.

However, instead of mushrooms as a power-up, Bernie prefers the refreshing taste of cheddar cheese from his home state of Vermont and the power of slogan “Not Me, Us” over an invincibility Super Star. Bosses do include famous Republican politicians, with the final boss naturally being President Donald Trump himself. Super Bernie World plays quite well and is a fun little distraction from the craziness of modern society and politics. Those interested in helping Bernie stop the top 1% of McConnell Troopas might want to give this game a try. Also, get out there and vote IRL.
