When the Lakeview Cabin Collection released on Steam last spring, it was nowhere near complete. It would take just over a year for developer Roope Tamminen to finish his 2D action game/love letter to the horror film genre, and finish it he has, now that the sixth and final episode is available to everyone. Like the alien Marker from the Dead Space series, the collection has been made whole, and though Tamminen has confirmed that he’ll continue polishing the game through patches, he’s already begun teasing his next project.
“I have a little project simmering that I can’t wait to show you all,” wrote Tamminen in an update on the game’s Steam page. Whatever could it be?
The Lakeview Cabin Collection is a 2D action horror puzzler that’s heavily inspired by horror films of the 70’s and 80’s, and its creator’s love for cult cinema. Its episodic structure means each episode has its own unique themes, features, and way of answering the question that basically the core idea behind the game: What would you do if you found yourself in a slasher film?
Big thanks to Rohan Sorensen for shaming me into writing about this. I hope I made you proud!
