NEW BLOOD

What's up, movie stars?!


Oshcuro here, your NEW director.

You might know me from hits such as DUSK, Kung Fury... and now... MAXIMUM Action.
https://youtu.be/-piOsWDtsfA My Studio, New Blood Interactive, has been secretly working with George a/k/a BalloonMoose on MAXIMUM Action since early 2019 (hence the recent updates) and now we're finally ready to fully reveal our plans for the game moving forward!



You may have noticed that almost ALL the menus have been revamped


Pretty snazzy eh?

We'll also be redoing the entire game HUD, UI and UX moving forward
for a smooth and dazzling retro experience.

You want that VHS aesthetic? We're giving it to ya.

But that's the easy part. The harder part will be reworking the movement and controls (yes, with full controller support) to make sure MAXIMUM Action isn't just a fun, janky, bullet filled menagerie of over the top violence - it's going to be a smooth and precise one, too.

Don't worry - the DUSK dudes are on the case.


We might even give y'all some real time lighting effects...

(But no promises)

Yet making the game LOOK and FEEL better doesn't mean a damn thing if there's not CONTENT to play. And boy are we gonna give you some CONTENT.

New Blood is bringing you a whole new batch of scenes to direct and star in - including some of the all time great ACTION scenes in movie history...


The Matrix lobby? You got it.

Hard Boiled? You know it.

The church from Kingsman? Oh hell yeah.

A melee only dojo scene like Ip Man? You bet your ass.

All this is coming and MORE. And you KNOW we're open to suggestions, so let us know what scenes YOU want us to create. Discord.gg/NewBlood



But more importantly - we want to make YOU the directors of your favorite ACTION movie scenes.

So we've just launched the ALPHA version of the MAXIMUM Steam Workshop!


https://steamcommunity.com/app/853770/workshop/

There are already 40+ maps on there including some fan favorites like E1M1 from DOOM.

Rip and Tear (and shoot) UNTIL IT IS DONE.




But that's not all...

Maps and scenes are only ONE part of the ACTIONyou know and love.

The other part? WEAPONS.


Which is why our NEXT update will include WEAPON MODS for Steam Workshop. And the first weapons coming at ya?

A brand new CROSSBOW...




AND... The Crossbow from DUSK.




We're also going to be adding more silly options like the newly implemented...

Family Friendly Mode™
Just think of the possibilities!

I guess we'll also add a proper replay system at some point when the alpha replays stop being so damn funny...

MOST importantly - we want to build this game WITH you.


You can always find us here on the forums or in Discord.gg/NewBlood with 10,000 other movie stars who like to blow sh!t up in slow motion.
