Minigame Madness V0.16.4 is OUT & 2026 Plans!

[h2]📰 Update Time![/h2]
Greetings Mubs, you're reading the latest news about Minigame Madness V0.16.4! This bi-weekly update we've polished Freefall Frenzy & created some awesome curated Condos & have a big announcement! 😮

⚠️ Check the changelog at the bottom of this post for the full list of changes!

[h2]💫 2026 Plans[/h2]
The past two years of bi-weekly updates have been a crazy hectic (dare I say chaotic!?) adventure. We haven't missed a single update, and have always pushed ourselves to make each one the best it could be.

With that in mind, let's take a look back at all the updates over the past 2 years! 🤯

After all these updates, there's one highly-requested feature still missing. 🧐

Minigame Madness is at its absolute best with friends, yet only a small percentage of players actually bring friends along! This means a lot of you aren’t experiencing the game at its best. We’ve tried encouraging group play in many ways (we even asked Steam for a 4-pack discount… they said no), but ultimately there seems to be only one effective solution:

We need bots! Smart, lifelike bots that make each minigame playable whenever you want, and just as hectic and fun as playing with friends made of flesh and bone and organs. 🤖

Retrofitting bots into possibly the most varied game on Steam (from football, to trivia, to FPS, to parkour, to social deduction, and more) is easily the biggest challenge we’ve ever taken on. And training them while maintaining bi-weekly updates has made progress much slower than we would've liked.

So in 2026, we're shifting our FULL focus to bot development, and we're pausing the bi-weekly updates for now. Time to prioritize quality over quantity! ⏸️

We're not setting an exact release date on bots just yet, but whenever we have something exciting to share, you'll find it here (so make sure to hit that follow button)! 🔔

Thank you all SO much for your feedback and support over the past 2 years of updates. Pausing them for now feels a bit weird and sad, but it simply needs to be done. Exciting things are ahead! ❤️

(Oh, and if the game somehow goes viral in the meantime, we'll return sooner of course lol)

[h3]☁️ Freefall Frenzy[/h3]
We've done some visual polishing to Freefall Frenzy to bring it closer to a finished state. Among the visual improvements are: a) fog when looking at the top of the sky scraper, b) you now get closer to the skyline than ever, c) and we've added animated CRANES!!! 🏗️

[h2]🏠 Condo Changes[/h2]
[h3]⭐ New Curated Condos[/h3]
With the upcoming "update drought" ahead, we wanted to highlight the limitless possibilities of Condos. So we built 3 curated Condos across 3 completely different genres to show what’s possible:

Crate Factory (Rube Goldberg machine ⚙️):

Movie Set (tool for YouTube video creation 📽️):

Laser Arena (custom "microgame" 🕹️):

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3614523499
All of these are available to play, explore & customize today inside your own Condo (alongside many others on the workshop). During this upcoming update drought, we may still drop a few new curated Condos from time to time! 🛠️
