New LTM: Bomb Potato! 🥔

Hot Potato, Hot Potato, who has the Hot Potato? If you have the Hot Potato you are OUT!

Bomb Potato! - A Forums Suggestion. :potato:


The Brainstorming. :brain:

Ah, the classic Hot Potato! Brings back warm, fuzzy memories of the past. Why not incorporate it here, but with a twist? The twist, you ask? There is no twist. I was lying.

Bomb Potato is a version of Hot Potato that relies on your speed and wit. It’s not similar to the actual version of Hot Potato, but it’s pretty similar.


The Roles. :busts_in_silhouette:

  • The Hunter: Carries around the potato. If potato isn’t passed to another player, they are eliminated. The Hunter is unable to collect power-ups except for the Stun Ray. They are able to throw their potato like a projectile, but if they miss, they have to grab their potato after it’s thrown.
  • The Survivor: Tries to avoid the potato. If they collect the potato, then they turn into the Hunter (shocker). They can collect any power-up on the map.

Once again, whoever’s the last one standing wins.


The Functionality. :floppy_disk:

Players spawn on different platforms, preferably nine platforms, connected by bridges. One person is randomly selected as the Potato Person, and has to tag someone else in under 30 seconds.

  1. If they tag someone else, they turn invincible for 5 seconds.
  2. If they don’t tag someone else, they are out of the game, leaving an explosive sound.

After 1.5-2 minutes, one random platform explodes, leaving 1 less platform to run on. This keeps going until 1 player remains.

There are 8 different power-ups, both unique and regular.

  • Blindness Splash Potion (5 seconds).
  • Slowness Splash Potion (5 seconds).
  • Jump Boost Splash Potion (5 seconds).
  • Speed Boost Splash Potion (5 seconds).
  • Stun Ray (2 seconds).
  • Stun Trap (2.5-3 seconds).
  • Leap (self-explanatory).
  • Invincibility (5 seconds).

Basically, it’s that Roblox game, but with actual stakes.


The Model. :artist_palette:

I don’t build. I model. Also, I’ve never felt more lazy to copy from a crafting table in my life. This is literally 9 different coloured squares. The only not-so-lazy thing I did was the potato, even though I copied the original potato model. All I did was add a red tint.


The XP Chart. :up_arrow:

Since Mob Game has 10 levels, I thought that Bomb Potato should have the same. This will change in the future, so you don’t have to worry about not getting your cosmetic idea onto here!

Another thing: The indents weren’t working, so most levels have two different rows instead of one row with two items.

Level #. XP Needed. Cosmetic.
LVL 1. 0 XP. Default Level.
LVL 2. 250 XP. Avatar: Ticking Time-Bomb.
LVL 3. 750 XP. Hubtitle: Exploding 101
LVL 4. 1,500 XP. Potato Trail: Magic.
LVL 5. 2,500 XP. Potato Skin: Mashed Potato.
LVL 5. 2,500 XP. Potato Trail: Hearts.
LVL 6. 3,750 XP. Avatar: Bomb Potato.
LVL 7. 5,250 XP. Hubtitle: HOT! HOT! HOT!
LVL 8. 7,000 XP. Potato Skin: Creeper-Potato.
LVL 9. 9,000 XP. Hubtitle: Unmashable!
LVL 9. 9,000 XP. Potato Trail: Fire.
LVL 10. 11,250 XP. Costume: Bomby.
LVL 10. 11,250 XP. Potato Skin: Ultra-Potato 300.

Final Thoughts. :speech_balloon:

If you want more ideas and everything like that, please give me all the feedback. Don’t hold it all for yourselves, just give it to me. Give it to me, the greediest forumer. Anyways, that’s all I’ve really got for you guys. Thanks for reading.

Bump. The world needs a Bomb Potato. Wait no, I take it back…

What if there were unlocks for the bomb potato? Like different colors! I’d imagine the hunter would be holding the potato during the game, right? What if the final level unlock able for the potato was french fries…. :>

New game? Yes please! Voted! Would it be a LTM, or permanent? Also, this needs some level unlocks, so I’ll try to think of some.

  1. LTM. As Hive stated before, as long as the game is still popular after the time of removal, it’ll stay as a game mode.
  2. Don’t worry about the level unlocks! I can do that myself.

I will still try to come up with level unlocks, because even though I am not very creative, I said I would and I can’t make myself go back on my word :heart:

Since I can’t do consecutive reply’s, I just edited this one

These were my best ideas for potato-themed titles.

That’s still true: this game’s sole flaw is that I still want potatoes.

My good sir, how dare you take this back? The world does need a bomb potato, I declare.

Apologies for the misunderstanding, Sir AJ the Otter.

Yeah, I can see that. It’s because Hot Potato is the name, and I replaced “hot” with “bomb”.
