You did not ask for the vote. It added one because a hidden role with no way to call it out is just losing.

Every mechanic it added is listed, and you can delete any of them before you share the link.

Four people made this game.

  1. Generation 1

    Pitch Chaos

    @rooklin · 2,140 forks

    The original.

  2. Generation 2

    Pitch Chaos: Reverse

    @delmare · 410 forks

    Forked from the original. The saboteurs are announced at the start and have to hide in plain sight.

  3. Generation 3

    Pitch Chaos: Hot Floor

    @basnet · 86 forks

    Forked from Reverse. The pitch burns away under your feet.

  4. Generation 4

    Night Pitch

    @elvy · 12 forks

    Forked from Hot Floor. Players can only see within three metres.

Every fork carries the whole chain. @rooklin is on the credits of a game they have never seen.

Fork anything. The original creator does not have to approve it and cannot stop it.

Credit is automatic and permanent. It is attached to the game, not to a description someone can edit.

When a game earns, the chain splits it. The maker takes the largest share and it thins out as it goes back.

A remix culture only works if the person who had the idea first still gets their name on it four generations later.
