ChaosCarnival

Party-chaos content for R.E.P.O. — built for lobbies that want the run to get weird.

Everyone in the lobby must install this mod. The host runs the game logic; every client renders the same sights and sounds. (Your mod manager handles all dependencies.)

Features

💀 The Cursed Item — random curse pool

One random valuable each round glows red and hides a random curse, revealed only when someone grabs it. Every curse comes escorted by Fart Goblins — green-glowing gremlins that hunt the holder and vanish in a puff of green gas when the item is dropped:

CURSE OF THE BUBBLE GUTS — uncontrollable farts through your voice channel, with your real voice wobbling in time with each rip
CURSE OF THE TINY — shrink to half size with a squeaky voice (body, headgear, and cosmetics scale in unison)
CURSE OF THE JITTERS — your legs stop taking orders; movement lurches and stutters
CURSE OF DECAY — your health ticks away while you hold it (it won't kill you. barely)
CURSE OF RADIATION — you glow with toxic gas and INFECT anyone who gets close; infection spreads player-to-player, drains health, and only time apart cures it
CURSE OF CONFESSION — your character periodically blurts embarrassing confessions out loud in text-to-speech for the whole lobby
CURSE OF THE SLOTH — everything about you slows down, including your voice
CURSE OF HELIUM — gravity mostly stops applying to you; your voice goes full balloon
CURSE OF THE BLIND — crushing tunnel vision until you let go
CURSE OF THE MAGNET — every loose valuable nearby is dragged toward you, clattering into walls and racking up damage on your tab

Pass the curse to a friend. Betray freely. Each curse can be toggled in config.

🤡 The Klutz

Every dollar of loot you break is tallied. At round's end, an Accident Report is posted to chat and the biggest butterfingers is crowned the Klutz — wearing a clown nose and a [Klutz] nameplate tag for the whole next round, visible to everyone.

🎰 The Lottery Item

One valuable glows yellow and becomes a slot machine: its value re-rolls every second — from minus half its worth to double its worth × the current level — visible to everyone, spinning right up until the extraction tube fires. Carnival music plays while it's carried. Cash out and pray.

📦 Weenie Hiding Box

A purchasable hiding box item. Squatting flat inside it renders you completely invisible to monsters and immune to damage.

🧊 Meltdown Contraband

Partway into the round, klaxons: a random valuable is declared CONTRABAND, glows blue, and its massive value melts away every second. The first player to grab it locks the price. Sprint or watch it turn to scrap.

🔦 Blackout Protocol

Periodically the level's lights die for 20 seconds. Loot glows faintly in the dark — the best looting window in the game — but the dark is not empty, and the monsters get hints about where you are. Your flashlight still works. Mostly.

🐀 The Snitch

One unmarked valuable is a traitor. While carried it periodically screams — a red pulse, and every monster is pointed at the carrier. After enough screams it's publicly unmasked in chat. Until then: trust nothing you're hauling.

🎡 Extraction Roulette

Toss the Barker's golden token into the extraction haul to spin the carnival wheel: JACKPOT ×2, bonus ×1.5, nothing, carnival tax, BUST ×0.5, a 30-second Monster Nap, or a full-crew Healing Wave.

🛒 Custom Purchasables

Jumper Cables (custom 3D model) — Revive a fallen teammate by transferring 25 of your HP.
Portal Gun (custom 3D model) — Shoots linked two-way portals (orange exit, blue entry). Players only — loot stays put.
