Makks
Rift ยท early multiplayer
Rift
Makks is associated with the development and ownership of Rift. The community-maintained Rift archive identifies Makks as its owner and credits Makks and Jake as developers.
A documented milestone in 2021
A September 8, 2021 interview published by FNJPNews discusses an early Rift multiplayer test. Makks described plans for another test using better servers and a goal of supporting 100 players with limited lag. These were development goals rather than confirmed production capabilities.
Modding support
The same interview discusses Rift Mods, a planned way to extend Rift. This places the project at the intersection of old-build restoration, multiplayer experiments and community modding.
Earlier traces
A December 2019 Reddit discussion links to a July 2019 tweet associated with Makks about an old Fortnite client experiment. The original tweet is no longer available, so the surviving discussion is an indirect historical lead, not proof of a first playable project.
