TTIV Max Appreciation

As screenshots are coming out and people are finding out lore in the game, I’m just going to indulge on my hyperfixation again because I’m not feeling well at the moment and it’ll help me with my writing. 

Screenshots and spoilers under the cut:

Look at my son, back from the Nanoverse and being a sizeshifter all casual while Sam’s like nonchalant about it. I just love the voice effects they did for this. And look at that size difference! 

Another shot. I just love the use of colors for the growing and shrinking here. It’s like lightning, but it’s smooth like fire. 

I... just want to gush at this since I’m into g/t things and point of view shots. They didn’t have to do this, but they did anyway. Although most people had flashbacks from this (and with good reason), I was just excited. This is not a dream sequence and this wasn’t how I initially thought it would go, but it made me smile. The fact that he immediately crouches down and offers his hand for the cadet to climb on, the fact that he comes hopping in to save Sam and Lumpy, and just everything. The detail is nice in this even though I expected more. I’m just... *chef’s kiss*

One more for the road. Here’s another shot of him if you turn around. He’s just... holding you gently and being patient with you (while whining about it) while you’re doing your thing to save the world and I’m swooning. It really helps with my creativity and muse for Max.

... He’s a sizeshifter now and you cannot change my mind.

TTIV Max

I wanted to draw Max from the new Sam and Max game “This Time It’s Virtual” before I forget to and an early present for one of his birthdays. 

My Spoilery Thoughts, Headcannons and a bonus picture under the cut:

To be honest, the game took a surprising turn for me. I had a feeling that this game would be different from the Skunkape games, but never to this level of fun and zaniness. It’s like if you take Hit the Road and put it to modern times. Not only does it leave some things open on what happens before and after, but at the same time, it does has its interesting callbacks to Sam and Max history and I can’t wait until the Easter eggs show up on video. 

I cannot believe that the finale of the game was that epic and that they gave us a giant Max. The point of view shots are amazing and the voice effect they did for Max’s voice is amazing. My only gripe is that we didn’t get a giant monster battle or something. That’s something to fix for my AU version of the game. ; )

So for my version of Max in the TTIV universe, I headcannon that after the Aquabear incident, Max becomes a sizeshifter for now on meaning he could shrink and grow at will. It would automatically activate with his emotions if he isn’t careful. So here I drew Max with the strange lightning rays around him whenever he grows and shrinks. He likes to use his power to pull pranks and tease both Sam and Lumpy.

Bonus Random Silly Stuff right here since I noticed something in the game and had to apply to my Sam and Max:
