illchuck 14 Posted November 17, 2017 Wow! I can’t believe we won Best Independent Game for Friday the 13th: The Game at the Golden Joystick awards. I wish we were there to be able to accept the award and say thank you at the show, but we’ve been working hard on all the new upcoming content. It’s truly an honor and I want to thank the community for supporting the game and voting for us to win this! We couldn’t have done it without you and wouldn’t be here to receive this award if it wasn’t for you. I also want to thank Gun Media for trusting us with their baby and the support they have given to us. Finally, I want to thank the IllFonic team for all their hard work, all the late nights, stressful days and believing that this could turn into something big. I know it wasn’t easy and didn’t come without a slew of issues but what this award really means to us is that the players and community recognized the true independent nature that this game was built upon which was one of the most challenging tasks we have ever taken on as a company. We learned a lot while building this game and hope to bring that knowledge into all future content and projects. Again, we really thank each and everyone one of you who helped turn our dreams into a reality. Chuck Brungardt CEO // IllFonic 13 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maddogg_8121 906 Posted November 18, 2017 Umm, congrats....but, there are still a "slew of issues" affecting this game. I'm really hoping the next patch is a good one and a step in the right direction. Please don't make us wait much longer on a new patch. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NthnButAGoodTime 1,529 Posted November 18, 2017 Congratulations, @illchuck! That's one heck of an accomplishment. I'm sorry you guys couldn't accept the award in person. I know that would've made it even sweeter! Thank you for your hard work on the game. I continue to enjoy it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alkavian 2,225 Posted November 18, 2017 Congrats! Now let's not make that a participation trophy. Put the spit and polish on this diamond in the rough. Your rabid F13 fans are starting to eat their own Chuck. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BomberBuddy 54 Posted November 18, 2017 Congratulations, @illchuck. Thanks for enabling my proper introduction to the horror franchise of Friday the 13th with this game! A lot of commendable hard work presented to capture the real-time(compared to the linearity of cinema) social experience. There are/have been issues with this game however, as I'm sure you've noticed. Issues that affect stability and the enjoyment factor that encompasses the atmosphere of F13. Please make Jason proud. I certainly don't envy you or your team, especially the guy who turns the ignition key and fires the patch off to certification. It must be like launching a nuke every time: everyone dreads the aftermath, the damage must be analyzed, and efforts to reconstruct must be made. Soon™ How much do I owe you for the trademark?

My brothers and I played liquid swords...or lightsabers...or ghostbusters into the toilet, when we were little. Made me think of that. Carry on. Edit: Yep. I looked through the lyrics, and there's almost no mention of crossing the streams in the title track from that album. Edit edit: It just seems like a missed opportunity, is all.
