“Ron Paul: the Road to REVOLution” borrows from iconic video games including Mario, Sonic the Hedgehog and Castlevania, but combines the classic side-scrolling gameplay that made those titles smash hits with America’s favorite 76-year-old political candidate. Instead of a perturbed plumper or a speedy blue anamorphic rodent performing as protagonist, Williams relies on Republican Party presidential hopeful and Texas Congressman Ron Paul to grab the attention of gamers.

Throughout the course of the game, still in development, the player navigates Rep. Paul around America’s 50 states, facing off against bad guys at the 13 branches of the Federal Reserve. Along the way, Paul has to pick up pieces of gold, avoid the disembodied head of neo-con former-President George W. Bush and, as if there was any doubt, eventually end up embroiled in an “epic” encounter between Paul and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. Right now Williams is still at work on the game, though, and hopes he will have it done in time before Election Day has come and gone. “I really wish I’d thought of the idea a year ago,” he adds to Raw Story. In an attempt to garner monetary support to speed up the development though, Williams has posted a teaser of his work-in-progress on the crowdsourcing site Kickstarter, which has so far spawned 46 backers. With more than two weeks to go until he takes his project off of the site, Williams has already exceeded his goal of $5,000. At this point, predicts Williams, the game will be ready by this July. Once he has hammered out all the kinks and the game is as good as gold, he hopes to release it for free on the Web, and then perhaps put out a copy on the Xbox Live Arcade and maybe a mobile version as well.
