★ All Presidents are treated with the utmost respect in this game. There’s no blood or fatalities. (This isn’t MK!) All names and likenesses of Presidents and celebrities are used in a fictitious and parodic manner.
The Ultimate Political Party-Crasher!
Finally, the way the Founding Fathers intended political differences be settled: By whoever’s better at video games! (Why do you think Ben Franklin was in such a hurry to invent electricity?)
Presidential Beatdown is a silly local/couch 2-D multiplayer fighting game in which super-soldier Presidents battle it out for political dominance.
⚠️NOTE: This game is an unfinished work in progress. The only available fighters are Trump, Obama, and Washington.
We’re releasing the game gradually to gauge interest and hopefully support development. Completion of any planned characters or features is not guaranteed. The only features as of yet are the bare-bones fighting game, the ability for each Profile and Prez to start leveling up Independently, and unlockable cosmetics using Coins, an in-game currency earned at each level-up.
Right now only 3 Prez’s are available, from The BOSS Pack: Trump, Obama, and Washington.
★ Trump (Red Team #45): “We will make America great again!” The Patriot-King comes down hot and heavy with hard-hitting fisticuffs and a golden lance fashioned from Old Glory herself.
★ Obama (Blue Team #44): “We are the change that we seek.” The Champion of Change uses all of the tools of his trusty Obamacare utility belt with ninja-like speed and skill to harm his opponents or heal himself.
★ Washington (White Team #1): “One Nation under God.” The Father of America cannot tell a lie but he can kick your ass with his mighty battleaxe and throwing hatchets.
Unleash devastating Executive Orders, like Trump’s U.S. Space Force Directed Energy Weapon, Obama’s Do Some Harm (& Some Healing) combo of damage and HP replenishment, and Washington’s Model-1776 Chainsaw. That’s some good wood ya got there!
Do glorious battle in 100 iconic all-American locals such as atop Mount Rushmore, on the deck of a US Navy battleship, and even in the tight quarters of the revered Oval Office.
What else do we have planned? Plenty!
The Heart of a Nation Pack:
★ Lincoln (Red Team #16): “Liberty and Justice for all.” The Great Emancipator and Unifier controls the full breadth of the battlefield with both axe and pistol.
★ JFK (Blue Team #35): “My regards to the CIA.” The rascally ginger turns the national tragedy on its head by becoming a master marksmith, on the other side of the sniper rifle.
★ Ben Franklin (White Team): “Behold..the power of electricity!” He may never have been a President (Betcha didn’t know that? See, this game is ejumacational too), but he was a Founder. The Father of Electricity wields electric gauntlets of his own devising to give his adversaries high-voltage electrocutions.
The Bad-Boys Pack:
★ Nixon (Red Team #37): “I am not a crook.” We love everything about this guy. It’s those amazing eyebrows, I tells ya. He wields nunchucks (we got the idea from the end of the movie ‘Black Dynamite’) with bulldog-like ferocity.
★ Clinton (Blue Team #42): “I did not have [censored] [censored] with [censored].” Slick Willy uses his famous saxophone to leave a dent in the heads of playa-haytas everywhere.
★ Andrew Jackson (White Team #7): All we know right now is that he’s on the twenty dollah bill and Mount Rushmore. But we’ll do more research, promise!
Presidential Runner-ups:
★ Reagan (R#40) ★ FDR (B#32) ★ Thomas Jefferson (W#3)
★ Ulysses S. Grant (R#18) or Teddy Roosevelt (R#26) ★ Jimmy Carter? (B#39) ★ John Adams (W#2)
7 Guest Characters: Not just Presidents!
★ Elon Musk: The richest man in history uses a jetpack and space-age technology to rock the battlefield with his own charismatic flare and infectious smile.
★ Saint-Pope John Paul II: The iconic face of mankind’s biggest religion, his Holiness uses incantations of light to summon holy flame, thunder, and healing.
★ St. Joan of Arc: (Did we really have to go this far back in time for a kickass female?) Donned in shining armor, this badass blonde cuts through the heart of evil with a sword of light.
★ Dr. King: He preached Christ-like peaceful means, lawfulness, and content of character instead of content of skin. ..But this is a fighting game, so he’s delivering righteous wrath, gangsta-style.
★ Columbus: The scruffy intrepid explorer following a dream that started it all wields a massive anchor and fires a naval cannon.
★ Einstein: The scientist eponymous with genius uses a variety of chemicals and nuclear-powered gadgetry.
★ Hitler: The political embodiment of evil, the Darth Führer himself wields an assortment of WWII-era German weaponry.
We would likely get to some Guests after only 3 Presidential Packs, as the 9 Prez’s they contain are our strongest options besides Reagan.
As of now in this game’s development, there are completely separate Profiles for Player 1 and Player 2. Unlocked Prez’s are unlocked for both, but each enjoys a separate growth and progression for levels, Coins, and unlocked cosmetics.
Each battle grants XP––100% for the winner, and one-third for the loser––and each level-up grants either Red, White, or Blue Coins, depending on the Prez’s Team, good towards unlocking cosmetics for any Prez of that Team. (Guest characters would likely use Gold Coins.)
Battle Modes we’re considering thus far:
★ 2-player 3-on-3 tag mode, a la the ‘Marvel vs. Capcom’ series.
★ 4-player 2-on-2 simultaneous battle mode, a la ‘Street Fighter x Tekken’.
★ 4-player platform fighter mode, a la the ‘Smash Bros’ series.
★ Tournament mode: 2 players use several characters in back-to-back battles with continuous health bars until one team is left standing.
★ Quickie Story Modes? (Character-specific, i.e. Trump v. deep state, Obama v. old healthcare, Washington v. tyranny)
★ Grand Epic Story Mode? (Akin to NetherRealm Studios, a grand overall epic storyline featuring all existing Prez’s and Guests, possibly involving time warps to bring them all together, and super-soldier infusements (Einstein?), to stop a returning Hitler from taking over the world? Would likely take too long to ever happen, due to its cinematic nature, and would be dependent upon many characters being completed.)
Features we’re considering thus far:
★ Create-a-Prez: Character creation mode to design your own Mr.––or Mrs.!––Prez. Be about anything you want to be. Rainbow? Christ? Freedom? Tyranny? Life? Choice? Choose the flair that lets everyone know what you’re all about. (Or just make some females so that this game doesn’t have more sausage than Oktoberfest.)
★ Profile Images: Choose from an assortment of unlockable icon and background images to jazz up your profile.
Most Likely Production Timeline: (IF EVER)

❻ Great Minds Guest Pack: Einstein, Dr. King, Musk
❼ ???
There’s an extremely low chance that we ever develop this game any further at all, as it would take us away from the incredible main project we’re currently working on. But it still makes for a silly good time for a low price, especially if you have a friend to play with locally. It’s also fun to play with yourself!
If you’d like to show your support to decrease the chance that this project is left in the annals of gaming history, please spread this game far and wide. If we can break a certain level of returns each month, we’ll know this is worth continuing. Completion of any planned characters or features is not guaranteed. Spread word about this game!
Check out the other games by Eternal Studios. We recommend our flagship production and crown jewel, the breathtaking animated historical epic saga Eternal, available now in the Steam Store.
Grab a friend or foe! Enjoy physical political debates! Make Politics Fun Again! Play Presidential Beatdown today!
Side effects may include feelings of patriotism.
Proudly made in New York.
