Hi! I am planning a hide and seek game and I want to see what the community thinks of the following things and I need some answers to certain questions.
1. I am thinking of making a votekick system for toxic players and exploiters to get kicked. Now there will be an anti-exploit but some people can learn to bypass it and the anti exploit wonât catch all of the players + toxic players. The issue is, if someone is well-hidden, and there is a reasonable amount of the round time left, the players might just votekick the person who is well-hidden. I have a few solutions, vote which one is the best:
- The players must be a minimal level to initiate a votekick (for example level 10+. This sort of thing is how Phantom Forces does this)
- Not many people will abuse this, no need for any specific requirements (everyone can initiate a votekick)
- No votekick system at all

2. The rounds will be pretty long (5 to 15 minutes) because its a hide and seek game and the maps will be quite big. If a player joins, and the round has started, they need to wait ~10 minutes for the next game to start (they of course can spectate) (there wonât be a lobby, it will a UI title screen, like in Hide And Seek Extreme or BIG Paintball or Piggy). The issue is, the player will most likely not bother waiting and just straight up leave the server. How do I tackle this? (reply in the comments please)
3. How important are cosmetics (trails, effects, titles, etc) in cartoony-styled Hide And Seek game?
- Important, people like to customize their avatar with things like this
- Not really
- Not important at all

5. How important would power-ups (invisibility for 10 seconds, speed for 10 seconds, jump boost for 10 seconds, etc) in a Hide And Seek game be?
- Very important, they will make the game unique
- Not really
- Not important at all

6. Would a system where you choose Bot or Player to be âitâ (the seeker) work in such a game or do you think that it would have some issues (if so, which?)
- It would work
- It would have some issues
- It defenitely wouldnât work
