SLASHER SUGGESTIONS AND IDEAS (REVIEW)
So what makes a good slasher?
Well, lets start by naming off certain things and we'll see if Utopia Games have accomplished that.
Upbeat tense background music? ✔
Loud ambigious terrifying music when running away from slasher/chasing survivors? ✔
Interesting and horrifying Killers? ✔
Unique custom maps that are fun and also scary? ✔
Easily accessible hiding places like, closets, under desks, under beds, vents, etc? ✔✘
Weapons for survivors like bats, machetes, wrenches, axe, etc? ✘
Utilities/items that can help further better the game like flares, batteries, tools, etc? ✘
Alternative ways of escape like police, an escape vehicle, boat, helicopter, etc? ✔✘
Character traits for specific characters? ✔

Bugs/flaws that are currently within the Alpha
Low character stamina
Killers barely get stunned by Sheriff's revolver
Killers are overpowered, in the sense that they cannot be killed, unlimited stamina, etc
Players can talk to the killer, and dead teammates, as well as vice versa, leaving the game open to ghosting, baiting, etc etc.

Conclusion/Final Thoughts
Slashers Gamemode by Utopia Games is a very fun take on the whole idea of surviving a killer based off of 90's horror movies. You can tell it's heavily adaptative and inspired by the new hit game Friday the 13th and that's not a bad thing. This gamemode is unique and different in it's own way from FT13th, and has a rapidly growing fanbase. And since it's only in it's alpha, I can see many more updates and further improvements, to help make the game more fun and slashy to the players. The potential is there, and it continues to grow.

Thank you for your review !

Just one precision, barely all the current features were designed or developped before the FF13 release however we think that FF13 is a really good game ^^'

For the bugs/things thats you believe makes a slasher a good slasher

  • The ability of hiding in closets will likely being developped in a near future
  • Weapons for survivors are currently being developped
  • We will buff some survivors et nerf some killers in the next update
  • Team chat to avoid ghosting is a good idea
