==Trivia==
*There is a Friday Night Funkin' mod based around Max Design Pro named TWIDDLEFINGER. It has became a meme to type lyrics from the titular song (i.e. AFTER ALL OF THE WASTED YEARS, NEED TO GET A TASTE OF YOUR FEAR, NEED A LITTLE TASTE OF YOUR BLOOD, THEN WE CAN FINALLY BE ONE, YOU'RE EVERYTHING THAT I EVER WANTED, JUST A SINGLE BITE AND I'M THROUGH, THERE'S NO NEED TO BEG OR BARGAIN, BECAUSE ALL I NEED IS YOU). 
**Max Design Pro has officially acknowledged that mod, with one of the videos featuring the good ending image as a photo on Nugget's counter, as well as Max's first idle on a wanted poster.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/E0F0E_SZAAQ They fixed the version of Twiddle (or Evil) Max into the lore, and is used as a dark side of Max whenever he is mad.
*Despite their YouTube About description saying they're from the United States,https://www.youtube.com/@MaxDesignPro/about a Discord user by the name of 'peppinospaghetti_' discovered that they're actually European-centric, due to the appearance of a Type C Plug within the background, the use of the metric system, as well as the backgrounds referring to public toilets as "wash closet".
**Later, another different user discovered that Max Design Pro might be Russian, and even might've learned to animate from "Максплеер" (Translates to “Maxplayer” in English), a Russian YouTuber.https://x.com/floffelo/status/1810045209927172592 Max Design Pro commented on their video "КАК СДЕЛАТЬ СВОЙ МОД #1 АНИМАЦИЯ И АРТ" (translates to “HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN MOD #1 ANIMATION AND ART” in English) on February 13, 2022 (4 months before they uploaded their first video).MaxDesignPro's comment: "Круто 👍 пошёл разбираться" (Cool 👍 let's go find out)
*Max Design Pro had another wiki, but although it has gained more recognition, it was vandalised with Nazi symbolism.
