Friday the 13th: The Game

[Nyghtfall]

For those of you not aware, a crowd-funded, PC-only, multiplayer slasher game is being developed and tentatively scheduled for release this Fall. It was originally called Summer Camp Slasher. Last year, Sean Cunningham - the Writer and Director of the original movie - learned about it and got involved, along with Tom Savini and Kane Hodder. Thanks to their support, the game was re-titled and is now based on the franchise. Tom is designing the death scenes and Kane is playing Jason. More info below:

Last night, the Twitch network hosted a live stream in which a few key developers and Tom Savini discussed various aspects of gameplay with an emphasis on death scenes. During the hour-long panel, they showcased two videos highlighting some of the different types of kills. I recorded and uploaded them to Mediafire. While watching these, keep in mind they are not what the finished game will look like.
