Description
DIY Lightweight Minigames for Garry's Mod. - Part of the Winter Coffee 2023 Event.

Contains simple minigames which can be set up and played in any Sandbox map. These minigames need a little bit of manual setting up. Read the description on how to set them up properly.





HOW TO SET UP A MINIGAME:
These minigames are very simple in nature. You grab and deliver various objective items with certain restrictions to the getaway vehicle.

In order to set up a minigame to play, you need to do the following:

  • Spawn the Objective props around the map - These range from minigame to minigame:

    - Hidden Packages: Use the drug package props and spread them around a medium-sized map. Recommended to spawn around 3-4. You can only carry 1 package at a time!

    - Heist: Use the money prop and spread them around a small-sized interior map. One money prop gives you $5,000 and you need to collect $250,000 before you can go back to the getaway vehicle. This means you gotta spread 50 money props or more around the map. You can carry everything in one go.

    - Rescue Nugget: Use the chicken prop and place 'em somewhere in a large-scale map. You should spawn Nugget only once! Once you grab 'em, make your way to the getaway vehicle and it's mission complete.

    - Kill Frenzy (Added by Update): It's time for some chaos! Kill 100 enemies! (Does not require any props, only common Half Life 2 enemies such as Combines or Zombies constantly rushing your position)

  • Spawn the Getaway Vehicle prop - You can spawn more than 1, although it is recommended to have only 1 per run. Recommended to be placed away from the objectives. The getaway vehicle is used for all minigames.

  • Use a Random NPC Spawner - In order to add some challenge to the minigames, you gotta fill up the map with bad guys who will try to stop you from progressing. I've released my Customized NPC Spawner which I recommend you to use and add challenge to your minigames, although you can use your own methods if you have other NPC spawners that you're more comfortable with.

Once you get the gist of these steps, you'll be able to quickly set up a minigame in any map you play and customize it according to your likings!




Features:
  • minigame_hiddenpackages 1 to enable Hidden Packages.

  • minigame_heist 1 to enable Heist.

  • minigame_rescuenugget 1 to enable Rescue Nugget.

  • minigame_killfrenzy 1 to enable Kill Frenzy.

  • Keep only 1 Minigame active otherwise they'll conflict with each other!

  • All the minigames have been mostly inspired by GTA.

  • Sound cues to enhance the experience further.

  • Simple in nature, to enable players to tweak the experience according to their likings.




Minigames List:
  • Hidden Packages
    - "When it comes to slinging drugs, you gotta be discreet, with dead drops and whatnot. Problem is we got a rat, and the cops have been tipped on where our stashed drug packages are! Get yo ass in there, grab those packages and deliver them to my guy who'll be waiting for you in his vehicle. Watch it though, those suckers weigh a ton, so you'll probably not be able to carry more than 1 with you!"

  • Rescue Nugget
    - "Help out a local real estate agency by rescuing a chicken that escaped from their office during a stormy night. I'm not sure why they're all so worked up about a damn chicken, but hey, the money for the job is good. Besides, how hard can it be to rescue a chicken, right?"

  • Heist
    - "This is it! The big one!... Alright, it's not exactly that, but that'll come eventually too! For now, you gotta stick up a local joint that's been laundering bookoo amounts of money "behind the scenes style". Bust in there, blast any fool that's stupid enough to take you on and fill your bags with the green stuff. Once you're done with the hard part, all you gotta do is get back to the parked getaway vehicle, it's practically a piece of cake. We need at least $250,000!"

  • Kill Frenzy
    - "You don't know me. Don't talk, just listen n' listen good. I've called in every enemy gang I could to swarm you. I need you to kill 100 of those idiots before they kill you. It's nothing personal, and if you survive, I'll make it worth your while. Oh, and put on a good show, eh? I'm recording you, and this footage is going to make some great snuff material..."




Limitations:
  • These minigames have only been tested in Single Player! There may be unnoticed issues during Multiplayer matches.

  • Coffee Man: Creating the minigame.

do you plan on fixing this

we need a feature where we can configure the kill list minigame to more than or less than a hundred kills

Really wish to see an update to adress that, nevertheless thank you for your mod!

Sadly, this mod can't be used for the multiplayer.
If you die while carrying money they won't be deleted from your inventory and you can just cheese it by grabing money and dying after if one of your friend is protecting 'em

A big problem with the one dynamic entity spawner on the workshop for this I realize, it doesn't allow me to make presets for something like this.
