A little buggy but great arcade FPS which delivers what It says - THE ACTION with Retro Old School Graphics in levels which might remind many of different 80's to 90's Action Movies. Sadly the game is pretty short despite the number of levels.

About This Game
MAXIMUM Action is the stress ball of first-person shooters. If you are looking for a story-driven narrative with complex characters then this is NOT the game for you. But if you are looking for a quick dose of highly replayable slow-motion heroic bloodshed with homages to classic ’80s and '90s action flicks then MAXIMUM Action might just be the FPS you’ve been dreaming of.
No complicated skill trees, leveling up, or drawn-out cutscenes, just pure fun that gets straight to the point.
Where MAXIMUM Action shines is in its emphasis on creativity and replayability. The entire game has been designed as a sandbox for the player to experiment in. From simply approaching levels with different combinations of dives, slides, and kicks, to a fully-fledged level editor allowing players to create action in any way they see fit. Further, use the sandbox menu to replay levels with different combinations of weapons or add more enemies to up the challenge.
And with full workshop and mod support, experiment with hundreds of custom levels and weapons to spice up the action!
Getting the best experience out of MAXIMUM Action requires a bit of creativity and imagination from the player, and I understand not everyone is up to the challenge! But if you’ve always wanted to play a role in your own balls to the wall action movie then I’d say give MAXIMUM Action a try!

Criminally underrated, please play this game. It's very fun and has extensive mod support.
It's like speedrunning Max Payne 1 with a VR headset while ODing on paracetamol.
me find game on tiktok game remind me of hotline miami i buy game i play game i customise character to look like cool spec ops person i do tutorial i play entire game and collect many gold tiny people i realise game has action of max payne but vibe of hotline miami i download mod even more fun me wish for more character customisation from steam workshop 9/10 will play again
I don't have a crazy amount of hours, but I've been playing this on and off since 2020. Whenever I get that gunkata itch, I boot up this game for a bit in Endless Mode and go hog wild.
hotline miami ma in prima persona. è molto carino, ti senti come in un film alla John Wick, ma alcune cose sono un pò clunky, e alcuni ambieni sembrano completati a metà. ma è comunque una figata quindi 8/10
Great arcade shooter. Lots of action and is exactly what the game advertises.
pretty fun
bad ai not hard, quite boring with the low level of difficulty this game poses
Maximum kino! Awesome, unfortunately too short although there's plenty of mods in the workshop to try out.
