Hot Potato (Mechanic)

Hot Potato was a cut deathmatch mode for the CO-OP Gamemode of Portal 2. Players would attempt to kill each otherkilling using Explosive Futbols. It was first shown off during an interview with a Developer. The Explosive Futbols were re-used in the retail version of Portal 2 as the bombs seen nearing the end of the game, using the same entity.

It was obviously developed alongside Futbol, as another type of CO-OP Gamemode. These Explosive Futbols would have been dispensed via dispensers, not unlike the Futbol gamemode itself. It is unkown why this was cut.
