Friends! Salutations!
So I was thinking: forget that Political Arena is a video game; forget that it’s going to be a VERY-OH-SO-FUN video game; forget that it’s going to ruin so many of our plans as we play for just...one... more...hour. Instead, think about this for a moment:
For the first time in theU.S.'s quarter-millennium existence, anyone and everyone will be able to trulyexperience politics as it existson the ground.
Let that sink in for a moment…
...
…
...Sunk in? Great! Now go and spread the word of our Kickstarter to your friends, family and anyone else who loves video games or is interested in strengthening our democracy that is … a little under the weather. It'll mean so much to us -- we need all the help we can get.
Also! Some of our press notices are starting to roll in!
The press...rolling in.
I had a great talk with Washingtonian’s Andrew Beaujon.
Stay tuned next week: we’re going to have some great updates that you won't want to miss, including some genuinely shocking details about our rewards and new swag that you will definitely want to get your hands on.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

WHAT A FIRST DAY!!!

Political Arena-ers! (Political Arena-ees? Political Arenaites?)
Holy cow! What a day! We raised over $20,000 on the first day of our Kickstarter campaign and the outpouring of excitement for Political Arena has been unreal! We can’t thank you enough for your support and promise to give it everything we can (and then some) to deliver you a ridiculously engrossing game. Be sure to spread the word to the gamers and political devotees in your life who have long wanted to change history... or simply do opposition research against their enemies.
We are working on our Kickstarter FAQ, so please don’t hesitate to send us any and all questions you may have (Can I try to nationalize healthcare? Can I leak news of my opponent’s financial misdeeds to the press? Can my Montana senator wear a bolo tie?).
Stay tuned to these updates: We’ll be rolling out first-looks of gameplay features, questionnaires about future Political Arena SWAG and even some HIGHLY IMPORTANT updates about Senator Goodboy McFluffleface (D-og).
Truly, the buzz around the game has been overwhelming and we’re so grateful for the interest and excitement that’s out there. We’ll do a press round up in one of our later updates, but we’ll tee it off with The Daily Beast’s Political Editor Matt Fuller:
We hope you are as excited about Political Arena as we are! To get this close to politics, you typically have to fork over several thousand dollars so you can sit beside an energy lobbyist at a closed-door campaign fundraiser and eat mediocre scallops. But you found another way! A much better way! A way without scallops! You backed Political Arena!
