- Update v1.5.0 - 2 February 2026
The new v1.5.0 update for Minigame Game brings both major new gameplay features, visual flare, as well as minor bug fixes and improvements! The biggest and most requested feature being - players can now crouch!

Crouching defaults to LeftCTRL but it can be rebound in the settings menu for both keyboard and controller.In addition to crouching, Minigame Game now has decals! Bullets, explosives, and various projectiles throughout the minigames will now leave behind a decal/impact where they hit. This includes even on physics objects! These impacts are synced (and resynced to joining players) so that your friends can always admire your bullet hole art!Along with the above changes, we also have more additions, bug fixes, and impr…
