Maybe the coverage rights for the Benny Hill theme got too expensive?

I also told them if they wanted to really know what they need to fix, (besides beer tents..) they should visit this forum and ask around.

From the ashes of Maximum Football comes Varsity - a high school football game.
403 Forbidden

I think the developers bought the MF game/property but are developing their new game from scratch. I've had their Discord channel in the background for some time but I only just noticed that they updated the logo to a big V which coincided with the announcement of this game.

Personally I think that a high school football game is going to be a hard sell. It doesn't have the recognition factor of a pro or college game but it sounds like they have plans to extend their game if this takes off.

Yeah, with a high school setting they'll have to hide the beer tent.

Wellll ... one of the more amusing p.a. announcements I recall hearing in my life (which has a LOT of HSFB games in it) was a promo for pre-game happy hour at a local pub.

Gotta love playing Catholic schools occasionally

Another phoenix version of MF. New developer so no sign of Daivd Winters.

Early video of it doesn't look half bad.

Looks like the IP was bought up last September

Good one.

I was imagining like it would be like that Seinfeld episode where Kenny give Jerry the Armani suit. Daivd would take the buyers out to dinner, only to order a soup, and then demand the buyers take him out the dinner again.

Sorry guys, the next version has been pushed to 2024.



Also, I didn't realize before but I'm signed up for the Maximum Football mailing list.

Beer Tents $1 a piece, Rouge $3 and 12 players on the field $5?
