Prototype Lobby

The Prototype Lobby (a.k.a. Prototype or PTL) is an area on the Hypixel Network where games in beta or alpha stages are tested. When playing Prototype Games you can earn Hype, you can use this Hype to add to games that you enjoy. Games with the most Hype will be added as a proper game in the future, games that don't have much Hype will be removed eventually. Sometimes the Admins might keep a game even if the Hype count is low.
