Fancy a Friday the 13th Game?

“Jason Voorhees is unleashed and stalking the grounds of Camp Crystal Lake! Now we need your help to make this game an amazing reality!”

Another “just in time for Halloween” piece – Randy Greenback is running a Kickstarter campaign to bring back the classic horror villain in the form of a game.

Friday the 13th game is a throwback to the late 80s when Jason Voorhees was THE villain to fear. He had (has) everyone having nightmares – young people and adults alike, and now, he just make a comeback.

The project’s creator says:

Friday the 13th: The Game is a third-person, asymmetrical multiplayer title where one player controls Jason Voorhees while the remaining seven control camp counselors trying to survive the night.That’s right…1v7 multiplayer set in the semi-open world of Camp Crystal Lake! It’s a classic horror fan’s dream, no shaky cam, no found footage. We want you to know we’re revitalizing the golden era of slashers, and putting you at the controls of each horrific, blood-splattered moment.

Here’s the official announcement trailer to give you the chills and continue reading.

Aside from the fact that this is Friday the 13th game, what makes the idea awesome?

Well, for one, you get to play as Jason Vorhees. How horrific is that?

Since it’s a multiplayer game, you can play against up to seven people who are camp counselors.

For players who take on the role of a camp counselor, it’s even more horrific because they have to face one of the deadliest – if not the deadliest – slashers of all time. There is no stopping him. Or is there?

Like the idea?

Check out the project, which still needs more than half of its goal with 29 days to go. With the help of fans, this game might see the light of day.
