Something fishy is afoot in Crystal Lake
You may recall on a recent Podcast where we discussed an upcoming video game titled “Last Year”. We were insanely optimistic about the development of the project and couldn’t wait to hear more. In case you missed it, here is the official synopsis for Last Year, as well as the pitch video that secured the development team about 3x the amount of funding that they were seeking:

Looking into the background of the fella in charge of Last Year, he is no rookie. He has worked for both Crytek and Ubisoft. I’m not exactly sure it’s beyond the realm of possibility that he was approached by the F13 property owners with the proposition of turning his game into an official part of the franchise that he was obviously aiming for. At least, that’s what I’m hoping. If not, this is a pretty uncool move from Crystal Lake Entertainment.
We’ll keep you posted.
