📰 Update Time!
Greetings Mubs, you're reading the latest news about Minigame Madness V0.14.2! This bi-weekly update we've made Crumble Crisis solo-able, added Condo Androids & more! 🤩
⚠️ Check the changelog at the bottom of this post for the full list of changes!
🕹️ Minigame Changes
🧊 Crumble Crisis
Crumble Crisis has finally been made solo-able, as promised! The style we're going for with Crumble Crisis is the classic snake game, and that one is solo-able too! However, unlike in the classic snake game, you can jump in this one, leading to weird strategies.
We've nerfed a cheesy jumpy strategy somewhat and rewritten the crumbling mechanics from the ground up to allow for this, but we still have a long way to go in terms of balancing! 🧀
We've also made the crumbled ice easier to see visually, along with many other polishing changes! 🧊
🏠 Condo Changes
🤖 Androids
Got no friends? Me neither! Which is why we've added a way to make your Condo more lively! ✨
Androids are a new Condo "furniture" that comes alive, just like the NPCs in the Hub! They take on the appearance of your Mub at spawn, just like Mannequins, except these brethren will navigate around and talk to each other within the confines of your Condo! 💬
Androids can even be made huge or tiny like all other furniture, allowing you to make a cute pet or even a menacing giant! 👹
Get Androids today by buying the ensemble, or get lucky opening a furniture crate! 🍀📦
🎨 Paint Hotkey (& Donation Mechanic)
Last week we added the Condo furniture painting mechanic, allowing players to spawn colored furniture from their inventory, but we hadn't yet added an ability for players to paint existing furniture. Today we rectify that! ✅
By pressing the 'Color' hotkey ('C' by default), you can now color already-placed furniture with your currently equipped color, making it easier than ever to paint your existing Condo! 🌈
Obviously with it being a hotkey, that hints to visitors being able to paint as well, considering they're able to utilize all other manipulator hotkeys as well. However, a critical reader would ask, "How would that work with color ownership? What if a visitor has a color that the host doesn't?" 🤔
For this reason we've added the "visitor color donation" mechanic, allowing visitors to paint with whatever color they own, even if the Condo owner doesn't have it. This allows friendgroups to grind certain items collectively for a single Condo, for the first time. Teamwork! 🤩
📺 Webscreen Rework
Webscreen-enabled furniture has always had an inconsistent way of interacting, where it required a clumsy aim-click unlike any other furniture interaction. We've been wanting to adjust this for a long time, but didn't get around to it until now. 🤔
The webscreen video selector has now been merged into the >Settings>Condo tab, which can now be instantly accessed within a Condo by pressing the 'Options' hotkey ('O' by default). 📺
Also, UNLISTED (not private!) videos are now playable on webscreens by entering their URL! ✅
