What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We are a young, ambitious and growing team, working on this amazing project without any financial support for more than two years now.
We love gaming ourselves and through active communication with the gaming community we are confident to have the best requirements to realize our ideas.
There is still so much to do, but with your support and our devotion for the game, we can continue developing and make sure that MaxControl is maintained for a long time.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Your support makes it possible for us to move forward the development until the game is ready for the official release.
As soon as we can provide a fully-valuable product, which features a perfect functional gameplay, contains a single-player campaign and the multiplayer is completely developed, we will leave the Early Access stage.”

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

“The Early Access contains the basic framework and an overview of what MaxControl currently represents. Many functions are still in development, which is why we want to incorporate your feedback and suggestions of the player-community. The Early Access also serves to show which functions you and the community are most excited about so we have the opportunity to perfect those.


Following features are already in development:

- Finely aligned gameplay-balance
- New surroundings like deserts, snowscapes, cities and more
- Various vegetations and biomes
- New AI designs (characters and vehicles)
- Multiplayer characters (individual game character in both teams)
- Individual character configuration
- Score-/Reward system
- Additional buildings
- Construction animations of buildable objects
- Motion animations of buildings
- More music and sound effects
- Various game modes (eg. skirmish, CO-OP, campaign, last man standing)
- Additional items to collect
- New weapon additives like eg. barrels, visors, granade launcher and mini rocket launcher

Furthermore we permanently work on performance improvements and gameplay-balance!”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“MaxControl is currently in tech-alpha stage.

Some features from the list are already implemented and are so much fun.
Various modes are already playable and bring diversity.

Once a week there will be an update with improvements, bug fixes and/or new game content will be released.
There is still so much to do but the base build can be operated nicely already and placeholder will be replaced as soon as possible. We are absolutely ambitious and keep working on MaxControl with nothing but passion.
We are currently a team of four (a programmer, a level- and art designer, a director and a composer). Only two of us work full time on this project for the past one and a half years.

We need your support to boost the development and our team. Early Access allows us to involve YOU in this amazing project.
Your opinion and feedback help us to bring out the best of the game. Through the purchase of a Early Access licence you support us tremendous with further development.

Dive into the world of MaxControl.”

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

“The game will cost less during the early access stage compared to the selling price of the full version.”

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

“We are planning on having an active communication with the MaxControl gaming community.
We want to hear your ideas and opinions to consider those during further development.
Even if we can not please everyone all the time, your feedback is really important to us!
Extremely active players possibly get the opportunity to participate in internal tests.
Therefore, participate!
We see the MaxControl Early Access community as our primary patreon, we develop this game for you!


Thank you so much for your support.”
