Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want real players getting their hands on the game and telling us what they think. The core experience is up and running, but there's always room to improve and the best way to find out what needs work is to hear directly from the people playing it.
That's why there is an in-game feedback tool, so you can share your thoughts, report issues, and suggest improvements right from within the game without any friction.

Early Access is a way of opening the door early, letting you shape the experience alongside the games development, and making sure that by the time it hits full release, the game has been refined by a real community rather than just my own assumptions. If you enjoy what's here and want to help make it better, i'd love to have you involved.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The game will be in early-access for a maximum of six months if, depending on suggested changes, everything goes well.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The game will have more levels to be played, more tiles, enemies, objects, more multiplayer modes and much more.
The released version will also have translations for more languages. Now only English, Dutch and Italian are there.
Also full controller support will be finished. Playing now is possible with controllers but menu's are not yet navigable with controllers.

There are plans for a voting function where players can create content and the idea or suggestion with the highest rating will be implemented in the game as of the next update. So that every month the top voted item (tiles, enemy, mechanic or what ever it might be) gets implemented in a new update.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core mechanics are up and running, people can create levels, browse and play levels, share them with friends, play multiplayer against each other, do endless runs for different categories, earn achievements that gives titles and more.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The game is and always will be free to play.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Using the in-game feedback tool users can send feedback to me and I'll see how I can fit their feedback into the game. This can be anything from new tiles, new enemies to completely new mechanics.

About This Game

Note: This is still in early access, so the store page and game are still in development.


Maker Max puts the tools in your hands.

Design your perfect level — or your most diabolical trap — using a fast, intuitive editor built for players who want to create, not just play. Paint tiles, place enemies, set properties, and test your level in seconds. When it's ready, upload it and hand it to the world.

BUILD IT YOUR WAY

A drag-and-drop tile editor with multiple layers, a growing library of enemies and objects, and a full undo/redo history.

SHARE IT WITH EVERYONE

Every uploaded level lives in a community pool browsable by anyone. Search by tag, sort by difficulty or popularity, follow your favourite creators, and bookmark levels to revisit. Your levels are yours — see who played them, how many died, and who holds the record.

BEAT IT FIRST

Race the leaderboard on every level. Every run is timed to the millisecond.

EARN YOUR LOOK

Level up by playing, creating, and getting likes. Unlock character skins, death animations, trail effects and profile cosmetics — all earned through play. Nothing in the store affects gameplay. Ever.

FREE TO PLAY

Maker Max is free. No level slot limits, no pay-to-win, no loot boxes.

TO COME

  • The community will be a key part of this game. You as the community will have a say in what will be added in future updates. You will be able to create your own enemies, items or mechanics, put them up for a vote and every month the top voted item will be added to the game!

  • More enemies, modes and mechanics are still being worked on and each will be released a.s.a.p.

  • Level of the week: Race against others in a selected level and see if you can beat everyone else and earn the title for that week!

  • And much more
