Friday the 13th: The Game is not a competition. Also, those types of games are competitive in nature. In fact, thereвЂ™s little to no gun-play in this title. Keltner: For starters, we arenвЂ™t shooters. What will set the gameвЂ™s planned multiplayer features apart from more pedestrian shooters like Halo or Call of Duty? Trying to force players to work with each other to mimic these moments can really take away from the horror experience. Our experience is built around the latter. Once they do though, all the fooling around ends. In the movies, the counselors donвЂ™t know about Jason at the start. Unfortunately, it just doesnвЂ™t make sense in our multiplayer experience. KedhrinВ Gonzalez:В Shoving a spear through a counselor while heвЂ™s on the toilet dropping a deuce would be epic! But, one of the discussions we had early on was if there were ways to put the counselors in situations like this during actual gameplay, possibly as a way to get extra points or something. We donвЂ™t want to spend a lot of money animating two teens, going at it, only to have it cut later. We want to include someВ risquГ©В scenes and nudity, but we also have to stay cognizant of theВ ESRB. Keltner:В Sex is a common staple inВ slasherВ films, but we didnвЂ™t feel like we were required to include it. With sex as a given theme in mostВ slasherВ flicks, did you find it important to include more sexual moments in-game? The exact advantages that she will have over other characters is still being determined, but rest assured the Final Girl will be playable in Friday the 13th: The Game! Personally, I find the Hero, or Final Girl, fascinating, so IвЂ™m really excited to replicate this trope within our game. Had Tommy not earned JasonвЂ™s sympathy as a child, would he have been able to defeat Jason in the later films as an adult? IвЂ™m really not sure.ДЄdditionally, this trope is something that has been studied by scholars for years, and there have been many great books and articles written on the subject. The mental toll this took on Tommy over the years is really interesting when looked at from the Final Girl perspective. Chris Higgins, Sally Hardesty, Ellen Ripley, and even Ginny Field - everyone loves the Final Girl! Since Wes mentioned Tommy Jarvis, itвЂ™s important to point out Tommy was a child when he first defeated Jason Voorhees, and he truly never recovered. I say stop and not kill, because, well, you canвЂ™t really kill JasonвЂ¦

Wes KeltnerВ : In the Friday the 13th films, the majority of them, save the ones with Tommy Jarvis, the female lead is the one that stops Jason. Does the Friday the 13th game depend on this? The вЂњfinal girlвЂќ trope - that thereвЂ™s always one woman left alive to confront a killer - is always present within horror/slasher flicks. Maxim sat down with Friday the 13th: The GameВ creators Wes Keltner and Ronnie Hobbs and creative director Kedhrin GonzalezВ to see whatвЂ™s in store for players. 1: Summer Camp, but itвЂ™s debuting Tuesday as the official companion game to the storied Friday the 13thВ film franchise.

The game was announced under the working title of Slasher Vol. Rather than taking the single-player route, Friday the 13thВ is actually an online asymmetric multiplayer title: One player takes on the role of iconic slasher Jason Voorhees, while the rest do their best to take him down (theyвЂ™re camp counselors, of course). Nearly 30 years after the release of the first Friday the 13th video game spinoff for the Nintendo Entertainment System, Friday the 13th: The Game has officially been announced - and itвЂ™s unlike any slasher game youвЂ™ve even seen,
