Friday the 13th: The Game is a survival horror video game developed by IllFonic, and published by Gun Media. It is based on the film franchise of the same name owned by Warner Bros. It was released on May 26, 2017 as a digital release[2] and later released on October 13, 2017 as a physical release[1] for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

The game is an asymmetrical multiplayer game, pitting up to seven players controlling Camp Crystal Lake counselors against one player controlling Jason Voorhees. It is a semi-open world game, with players able to explore it further.[3]

The game was originally to be developed as Slasher Vol. 1: Summer Camp by IllFonic in mid-2015.[4] Gun Media was in talks with Friday director Sean S. Cunningham to obtain a license to develop the game, and after a series of meetings, successfully acquired the rights. The game evolved into Friday the 13th: The Game, and funding from both Kickstarter and BackerKit raised approximately US$1,095,143.40, becoming the 156th most successful crowdfunded project of all time.[2][5]

Gameplay

Pre-alpha screenshot of the game.

Friday the 13th: The Game is a semi-open world[3] third-person survival horror game set in the camps around the fictional Crystal Lake from the Friday the 13th franchise. The time period in which the game is set is the mid-1980s in order to better capture the feel of the original films.[citation needed]

The game is an asymmetrical multiplayer video game, with up to eight people able to play in one game. One player controls Jason Voorhees[6] whose objective is to kill as many counselors as possible. Playing as Jason grants special abilities including being able to sense nearby counselors and to teleport anywhere on the map the player wants.[7] The remaining players control the counselors at the camp. The objective of playing as a counselor is to fill objectives (which are easier to fill when coordinating with other players) that will allow counselors to escape from the camp, or to survive until time runs out on the session, Jason may also be defeated with an "epic win condition" that requires both teamwork and planning, and is difficult to perform.[6] A player may also control Tommy Jarvis, who becomes playable when certain conditions are met.[citation needed]

Although the game was originally planned to be multiplayer only, a single player mode via an update was announced for a Summer 2017 release, despite the stretch goal for US$1.625 million to unlock it not being reached.[8] The mode will consist of objective-based missions that will allow the player to take control of Jason against offline camp counselor bots. Some of the missions will be adaptations of the films, while others are original scenarios.[9][10]

On October 27, 2017, Gun released a trailer teasing a new game mode called "Paranoia."[11] No release date was given, and it is unknown what this new mode will change, but there has been a lot of discussion amongst the fan community over what it might include.[citation needed]

Characters

The game's primary killer is Jason Voorhees, the series' most recurring antagonist. Eight different versions of Jason are playable, based on his appearances from the second, third, fourth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth films, the NES game, and make-up artist Tom Savini's own Jason created exclusively for backers of the game.[1] Each Jason has his own strengths and weaknesses and many also have different weapons. Additionally, players have the option of selecting Roy Burns, the Jason copycat killer from the fifth film,[12] who is referred to as "Part V Jason".

There are thirteen playable counselors in the game, each of whom have their own strengths and weaknesses. Original counselors created for the game are Adam Palomino (Robbie Daymond), A.J. Mason (Marisha Ray), Brandon "Buggzy" Wilson (Zeno Robinson), Chad Kensington (Benjamin Diskin), Deborah Kim (Cristina Vee), Eric "J.R." LaChappa (Benjamin Diskin), Jenny Myers (Kristina Klebe), Kenny Riedell (Robbie Daymond), Mitch Floyd, Tiffany Cox (Cherami Leigh), and Vanessa Jones (Noveen Crumbie). From the films are Part III characters Sheldon "Shelly" Finkelstein[13] (Larry Zerner) and Fox.[13]

Also playable is Tommy Jarvis (Thom Mathews), the protagonist of the fourth, fifth, and sixth films, who assists the counselors when contacted from a randomly placed radio. He is controlled by a randomly-selected player on the counselors' side whose previous character was either killed or escaped. In addition to having perfect statistics and being immediately equipped with a shotgun, pocket knife and first aid spray, Tommy is the only character capable of killing Jason.

Maps

Five primary maps are available, each of which are based on locations from the first five films. Matches may take place at:

A map based on Grendel, the spaceship setting of the tenth film, is also scheduled to become a map for the game.

Development

After IllFonic's polarized 2012 remake of Nexuiz and Gun Media's Breach & Clear: Deadline in 2015, IllFonic went to work on a game titled Slasher Vol. 1: Summer Camp, with little details on its release date with Gun,[14] in which the story took place in Camp Forest Green.[4] Friday the 13th director Sean S. Cunningham was in talks about an upcoming game based on Friday the 13th with Gun.[15][16] It is also the first video game IllFonic has developed with Unreal Engine 4, departing from CryEngine after the announcement of Project Advena.[17]

Sean [S. Cunningham] came to us in early 2015, but we quickly discovered these weren't the normal business conversations you would have when you try to secure a license as important as Friday the 13th. It was totally different. It was a conversation built on mutual admiration and respect for what each had created. Sean immediately noticed the passion we had for Friday the 13th, and after several incredible meetings over the next few months, we decided to upgrade our plans for Summer Camp and embrace the Friday the 13th video game license. After several incredible meetings over the next few months, Sean surprised us by offering the Friday the 13th video game license.[2]

Executive director and producer Randy Greenback organized both a BackerKit and a Kickstarter campaign to fund the game's development. Overall, US$422,866 was raised by 18,068 backers in BackerKit and about US$823,704.20 from 12,128 backers in Kickstarter, collecting about US$1,246,570.20 from both platforms, becoming the 95th most crowdfunded project of all time.[2][5][18]

On October 13, 2015, it was announced that Slasher Vol. 1: Summer Camp had evolved into Friday the 13th: The Game,[19][20] with an announcement trailer released by Gun on their YouTube channel the same day.[21]

On Halloween, Harry Manfredini uploaded a video to the Gun YouTube channel with files on his computer monitor being partially seen, implying that he is composing music for the game.[22]

On November 4, Gun released fly-through shots of the game's environment while in pre-alpha development.[23] On November 10, IllFonic posted a video on Gun's YouTube channel, which highlighted testing and development for the game, including 3D modeling for Jason.[24]

On February 25, 2016, Gun and IllFonic released camera footage showing stunt coordinator Kane Hodder, who portrays Jason, with Tarah Paige and Ryan Staats, the two actors who will play the men and women counselors in the game, performing motion capture at Digital Domain. The footage shows Hodder performing a list of kill animations for the game, with rigged placeholder characters used to track the kills and animations in real-time.[25] This was soon reuploaded by Bloody Disgusting in the same day.[26]

A developer panel for Gun Media and IllFonic was opened at PAX South 2016 in January with alpha footage and a list of kill animations,[27] with gameplay released at E3 2016 in June.[28]

On September 2, Gun released the PAX West trailer for the game, titled "XIII". The trailer showcased Jason Voorhees' kill animations specifically designed by Tom Savini, while set to "XIII" by Crazy Lixx.[29]

Casting

Several actors from the Friday the 13th films reprised their roles in the game. Motion capture for Jason Voorhees and Roy Burns was provided by Kane Hodder, who portrayed Jason in The New Blood, Jason Takes Manhattan, Jason Goes to Hell, and Jason X, and is the only actor to play the character more than once. Cast as Tommy Jarvis was Thom Mathews, who played Tommy in Jason Lives and the character is modeled after Mathews' appearance in the film. Larry Zerner, who appeared in Part III as Sheldon "Shelly" Finkelstein, returned to the role when the character was added to the game. Also featured are the likenesses of Part III actress Gloria Charles as her character Fox and A New Beginning actor Dick Wieand as his character Roy Burns.

The original counselor characters were voiced by Zeno Robinson as Brandon "Buggzy" Wilson, Benjamin Diskin as Chad Kensington and Eric "J.R." LaChappa, Cristina Vee as Deborah Kim, Kristina Klebe as Jenny Myers, Marisha Ray as A.J. Mason, Cherami Leigh as Tiffany Cox, Robbie Daymond as Adam Palomino and Kenny Riedell, and Noveen Crumbie as Vanessa Jones. The male counselors were motion captured by Ryan Staats and the female counselors were motion captured by Tarah Paige. Jennifer Ann Burton voiced Pamela Voorhees, whose voice is heard encouraging Jason's player during the game and in a collection of unlockable tapes.

Virtual Cabin

On June 30, 2016 [30] IllFonic previewed a 3D development diary to complement behind-the-scenes interviews, footage, and in-development stock called the "Virtual Cabin". Besides overviews, the Cabin has item rooms that house information upon characters or scenes or easter eggs.[31] An item room called the "Jason Room" was unlocked on July 18, 2016 [32] and a room containing the main counselors was unlocked on August 12, 2016.[33] On December 18th a virtual cabin 2.0 was added to the main game. It features much more Easter eggs and is at a much larger scale than the previous cabin. Completing all the challenges reveals confirmation of the addition of Uber Jason and a map depicting the space ship Grendel from the film Jason X.[34]

Soundtrack

Harry Manfredini, who created the soundtrack for the original film, composed the soundtrack of the video game. The physical copy will feature original concept art from the game and liner notes in the packaging.[35]

During development, Gun released two tracks from the upcoming soundtrack, which released as "Harry Manfredini Full Track - 01" on November 9, 2015[36] and "Harry Manfredini Full Track - 02" on May 14, 2016.[37]

A trailer of the game released for PAX West 2016 featured the theme for the game, "Killer", recorded by Crazy Lixx.[citation needed] Other songs included in the game from Crazy Lixx include “Live Before I Die” and “XIII” which can be heard when the radio is played.[citation needed]

The popular 80s punk group the Misfits are also featured on the game’s soundtrack. They have one song in the game, appropriately titled “Friday the 13th” from their album Friday the 13th-EP released in 2016. The song can be heard on any radio in the game and also in the car when escaping. GunMedia uploaded a trailer featuring the song during the game’s development.

Release

The game was pushed back from the fall release date, multiplayer came out on May 26, 2017 and the campaign was released in Q3 2017. The initial release was digital exclusive,[38] with a physical copy published on Friday, October 13, 2017.[1]

Reception

Friday the 13th: The Game received "mixed or average" reviews, according to review aggregator Metacritic.[39][40][41]

"Slightly above average or simply inoffensive. Fans of the genre should enjoy it a bit, but a fair few will be left unfulfilled," was Caitlin Cooke's conclusion on Destructoid with a score of 6.5/10.[42]

James Kozanitis of Game Revolution gave the game a score of 4 out of 5 stars, saying, "Is it perfect? Not by a long shot. Indeed, you’ll experience graphical bugs and other quirks that break your immersion. But, after getting into Friday the 13th: The Game, and I mean really getting into it, discovering all its intricacies and more technical aspects, these problems will seem so small as to evaporate, and balance issues you once perceived will be corrected. And what’s left is a truly unique experience, unlike any other multiplayer game you’ve played (certainly a cut above other asymmetrical titles), where cooperation, wits and sometimes ruthless murder are what it takes to survive. Be wary of this game if only for its propensity to hook you. Jason has sunk his pickaxe into me, and he's not letting go, ensuring I will be playing Friday the 13th: The Game extensively for the considerable future.[44]

Peter Brown's 4/10 on GameSpot stated that "These shortcomings and ongoing server issues aren't easily overlooked, and work against what promise Friday the 13th shows. As of now, a week after launch, it's short on content and performs poorly all around, especially on consoles. The story goes that the developers weren't prepared for amount of people who wanted to jump on day one, but that does little to assuage players who were convinced that they were paying for a finished product. Despite showing potential that may one day be realized, Friday the 13th comes across as an unfinished game that shouldn't have been released in its current state."[45]

IGN's Daemon Hatfield scored the game a 6.9/10 with the consensus "Lopsided gameplay and egregious bugs almost kill the mood of Jason's murder spree in Friday the 13th: The Game."[46]

75/100 was Tyler Wilde's score on PC Gamer and said "It needs more maps, but right now Friday the 13th is a gory game of hide-and-go-seek that’s fun with funny people."[47]

Austen Goslin's score of 4/10 on Polygon said that "Friday the 13th: The Game mimics the surface level of the classic film series, but misses the spirit."[48]

The game has sold 1.8 million copies as of August 2017.[51] Despite mixed reviews, the game went on to win the Best Indie Game award at the 35th Annual Golden Joystick Awards,[49] though it was nominated for Best Multiplayer Game.[52] The game was also nominated and became a runner-up for "Best Multiplayer" at the IGN Best of 2017 Awards, although it won the 2017 People's Choice Award.[50] In addition, the game was nominated for "Game Design, New IP" and "Game, Original Action" at the 17th Annual National Academy of Video Game Trade Reviewers Awards.[53][54]
