Publisher Gun has released a new set of screenshots and details for Slasher Vol. 1: Summer Camp, an upcoming asymmetrical multiplayer game inspired by 1980s horror movies. Currently planned for release on PC, Xbox One, and PS4, Summer Camp sets a group of Teen Counselors against a player-controlled stalker called The Killer. The Killer utilizes advantages in mobility and an arsenal of weapons to hunt other players across the seemingly-tranquil Camp Forrest Green. He or she will also be able to harness the environment of the camp to use against the Teen Counselors, a concept reminiscent of some of Jason Voorhees more memorable murders like the sleeping bag kill or the gory bathroom face-mirror smash. The Counselors are a group of 6-7 players relying largely on stealth and evasion to survive. The Teens will need to monitor the level of noise they create and search for weapons to fend off The Killer while locating escape vehicles. The Counselors can work together as a team or split up to tackle the situation alone, and the creators promise both paths have risks and rewards. The Camp Forest Green arena is a seemingly-peaceful and rustic retreat concealing a hidden menace. New images depict lakeside shores, gore-streaked canoes, bloodied tents, dimly-lit cabins, and dark pathways through the woods. Beyond the presence of these iconic locales, the developers hope to evoke the spirit of 80s slasher flicks by simulating the low-budget lighting and equipment conditions used to create these movies. The game engine is being designed to replicate the grain, color, and blur typical of a cheap film recording and subsequent VHS transfer.

I won't be able to get it until a week or so after it's been out.
So just enough time for you to all become experts at it then I'll waltz in a rookie and get destroyed.

I'm actually pretty terrified of this game and even just watching the beta gave me anxiety, so idk if I'll actually play it lol. Jason Voorhees is literally one of my biggest fears. i cried just this past Halloween at Universal Studios coming face to face with the man...

Still in love with the concept of this game, but this is exactly why I'm not pressing it. This shit is about to come out and they're still working on basic graphic stuff in the last hour. And it's set in the 80's, their shit would be stiff with hairspray anyway.
