Sounds like a classic ignition problem. the coil or the electronic ignition module breaking down with heat. Been there on several occasions over the years on several different engines.

'The hotter it gets the worse it is,' is what tips me off as an ignition problem

Debris under the engine shrouds, clogging the cooling fins on the cylinder head, will cause the engine to run hot. It happens...

It very well could be an ignition problem, but just for sh;+$ and giggles take some starter fluid or carb cleaner and spray around the carb. Be careful not to get any in the carb. She if you get any noticable change in rpm. Also what color is the spark plug when you pulled it?
