Face/Off
New Blood Interactive is slowly becoming a modern day ID Software. Not content with releasing the best retro inspired shooter withDUSKand creating the arcane wonder that isAmid Evil, the lovely boys at New Blood have acquired indie early-access shooterMaximum Action. A Hong Kong inspired title that sort of marriesMax PayneandHalf-Life, the title has beenavailable on Steamin early-access sinceSeptember of last year. While development was slow, it seems new life has been breathed into the game with New Blood’s acquisition.
If any of that doesn’t sound like enough, you might like to know thatMaximum Actionallows you to dual wield any weapon in the game, has a time altering mechanic similar toSuperhot, utilizies lo-fi late ’90s graphics, has a sandbox and endless mode, and even comes with a level editor. It’s currently priced at $14.99, too! That sounds like a hell of a deal, to me.
