Don Coscarelli took to social media early Tues. to announce his open-ended curiosity in engaged on a Illusion online game. “What higher time than now?” the director wrote. And, he isn’t mistaken it’s a nice time to begin a video video games collection based mostly on the Coscarelli Illusion movies. The true query is what would that recreation seem like?
Just lately, each Texas Chainsaw Bloodbath and Evil Useless: The Recreation have obtained online game variations. Every of those has been made by studios stuffed with enormous followers that wish to convey these worlds into the digital world of video games. So, like Don says, what higher time than now?
The collection makes a number of sense for the world of video games. I’m simply hoping that whoever does find yourself approaching Coscarelli for a online game adaptation does so with a single-player recreation in thoughts. I’m type of getting fed up with these multiplayer solely experiences which have been the norm for Friday the thirteenth, Texas Chainsaw Bloodbath and Evil Useless: The Recreation.
The synopsis for Illusion went like this:
The residents of a small city have begun dying beneath unusual circumstances, main younger Mike (Michael Baldwin) to analyze. After discovering that the Tall Man (Angus Scrimm), the city’s mortician, is killing and reanimating the lifeless as misshapen zombies, Mike seeks assist from his older brother, Jody (Invoice Thornbury), and native ice cream man Reggie (Reggie Bannister). Working collectively, they attempt to lure out and kill the Tall Man, all of the whereas avoiding his minions and a lethal silver sphere.
A recreation that will put you in with Reggie and the ‘Cuda for an open world hunt for the Tall Man and his followers can be phenomenal. Place the sport proper in between Illusion 2 and 3. That’s an ideal recreation with tons of potential.
Like Don says in his tweet, “DMs are open,” so in case you have a recreation studio and are a fan of the world of Illusion. That is the proper alternative to create a implausible recreation.
I’ve tons of nice single participant concepts as to the place this one might go as nicely.
Do you suppose {that a} Illusion recreation must be a multiplayer expertise or a single participant one?
The commonest query I get about PHANTASM is…..
WHEN WILL THERE BE A VIDEO GAME?
What higher time than NOW.
To all my buddies within the online game trade. DMs are open.
To all of the PHANS reply to this thread and tag who would do it justice. pic.twitter.com/AuCfFnX3kv
