About Hotseat
This started as an after-party habit, a bunch of us, too much energy left after dinner, playing half-invented Bollywood games because every show we binged made us go "we could do this ourselves." So we did. Badly at first, then less badly.
Hotseat is that same energy, built into a web app: no props, no prep, just phones and people. It's a vibe-coded passion project (yes, literally).
The point of it all is simple: make you actually feel like you're on the hotseat, get everyone talking, get the room competitive in the fun way, turn rivals into teammates for a round, and in the end, let someone win bragging rights till the next session.
Right now it's in beta, think of it as still warming up. Some games are polished, some are held together with duct tape, and you might hit the odd bug or a clue that doesn't quite land. That's the deal with testing in the open: you get it early, we get to fix it fast.
So play it, laugh at us, catch a wrong fact or a glitch, tell us. Every session you run helps us make the next one better.
