Destructible fences, boxes, windows, bottles, pillars, tombstones, water towers, and balconies all added as new props! Soon to be added to the editor.
We wanted to include all of our favorite western shootouts in this level, from an old Mexico-style courtyard to a cemetery full of tombstones. As well as a full-fledged town complete with a two-story hotel and gun store!



You'll find a new weapon added to this level as well,

On top of all this, a brand-new track by Daniel J. Stimac "Wild Wild Western" featuring professional whistling for a truly authentic soundtrack for this western showdown!


you'll also find other fun details added to both western levels, such as first aid kits being replaced with old timey medicine bottles! Glug glug glug!


[h2]UPDATES TO THE REPLAY SYSTEM[/h2]


There are still many bugs to be ironed out with this system, you have been warned!



The Maximum Action Replay System is still a major work-in-progress, but you'll find lots of changes made in this update to improve the experience.

[h3]AI DIRECTOR[/h3]

A new AI director system has been implemented that recuts your gameplay into a cinematic experience! From close-ups to long shots, the system is completely dynamic and has lots of versatility


[h3]PHOTO MODE[/h3]



If you don't like the AI director's choice of angles, you now have the option to change to a free camera photo mode to capture your own view of your kick-ass gameplay! Choose between different filters, image effects, and camera settings to capture the perfect shot of your action hero!
[h3]UPDATED PLAYER ANIMATIONS[/h3]
The player animations for the replay have been massively updated to be more detailed, grounded, and cinematic. Watch your hero do a slow-motion dive onto his back and he mows down all the baddies in the room! Experience a true action movie recut of your gameplay!



[h3]SHARE YOUR SCREENSHOTS![/h3]
Please share any screenshots you take with the photo mode in the Maximum Action Discord or on Twitter! Tag me in them! @BalloonMoose
