Mexican game developers KaraOKulta have released a new video game in which players can throw soccer balls, thorny nopal cactus leaves and tequila bottles at Donald Trump.

The game is called "Trumpealo," which roughly translates to "Trump him."

The game opens when a Trump cartoon character appears on stage and repeats offensive phrases like "Mexico is not our friend" or "Latins are rapists."

A range of missiles appears at the bottom of the screen, and the player taps a shoe or a bowling ball to throw it the lofty-haired businessman.

Trump's inflammatory comments about immigrants quickly became a trademark of his presidential campaign. In a speech announcing his bid for the White House, Trump called the United States "a dumping ground for Mexico" and said that Mexicans were "bringing drugs, bringing crime" over the border. Trump also added that Mexicans were "rapists."

According to CBS' local affiliate in El Paso, Texas, the creator of the game has said he's even received requests from Trump supporters to modify its design. Trump fans would like to see the game with options for players to throw flowers or money at the cartoon character.

The game is still in its beta test version but is available to download on Google Play.

Users have left varying reviews for Trumpealo: while one player deemed it "a great game to relieve your stress," another said "it's not a good game" but admitted to liking it "because you can hit [Trump]."
