[@Ghostgirly2]

kinda disappointed there weren't that many classic games in the Roblox classic event instead of the * skibidi toilet tower defense created in 2023 *

[@John_OrangeFish]

But the oldest thing we got is bee swarm simulator

[@Ghostgirly2]

I'm not referring to having a old game I'm referring to having games that are older than 5 years at the very least. Classic dun feel classic if it's a game that was made a year or two ago. Sure they adapted to have a classic look to them but they are still not old-ish games. They simply don't bring any feelings of nostalgia or feelings of having grown up like old games did. But whatever is just a short event anyways

[@some559]

That's what I'm saying, how the hell Survive Natural Disasters isn't in the event but skibidi toilet defense is.

[@Orion-ih5xl]

​@@John_OrangeFishthe bee swarm tower defence was the most fun to play

[@bruh_8129]

Not including super bomb survival was a CRIME, the game is mad fun and decently classic

[@devi.lynn.v]

Heyo! I'm one of the co-leads for Cakebomb Studios (aka, the people that work on Make a Cake), I just wanted to clarify that we maintain the original version (Make a Cake and Feed the Giant Noob) to keep it functioning. We don't intend to change it because we want to keep it feeling the same way it did back then! The current version is where we can make most of our big updates, AND we maintain a 2016 version of the sequel as well (originally called Make a Cake: Back for Seconds)! (if we wanted to be exact, there have been 3 games in the series: classic [2010], back for seconds [2016], and make a cake [2021]) Speaking as a member of the roblox community, I think that you did a good job exploring these older games on the platform and analyzing the impact of them! Great video, honestly :)

[@PerChaps]

Thank you!! I’m glad somebody who’s worked on one of these games has came around to leave their input. I completely understand with maintaining the game, and I’m glad you guys put in at least a little work to keep such an old game in pristine shape. I’m glad you enjoyed this video, and I’ll definitely make similar content in the future :D

Well, looks like it's time to throw my hat in the ring. I am the Community Manager of Cakebomb Studios, and I just want to add onto what my colleague, Devi, said. As I am not a game developer, (I have no interest in coding,) I instead spend a lot of my time theorizing about *game design*, what makes _Make a Cake_ unique, how to best help returning players, and how to expand on the "vibe" that _Make a Cake_ provides. I agree with EVERY point you made in the video, and I am extremely glad that people outside of our little circle are able to pick up on these things. It's rare that someone outside knows a lot about the game. And that's where you come in. As we are Cakebomb Employees, we have a lot of knowledge about the game that we'd like to share, things like Easter Eggs, hidden features, and the 2016 version of the game that you didn't cover in this video. We also have admin powers and can mess with the game a bit; give tools, money, teleport, etc. So, Ben has an offer for you: if you come into the Cakebomb Discord, we'd be down to let you give us a little "interview" of sorts while we give you a proper tour of the factory. We LOVE talking about stuff like this, and if you ever want more content, an exclusive interview with the Make a Cake staff team could easily get you some views! And if not, we'd still love to talk to you anyway! Me and Devi showed Ben the video and he loved it, he felt very humbled and was honored to be put alongside the greats!

[@PerChaps]

Thank you for the feedback, and I’m glad somebody who is much more professional than I am can back me up on some of these things. Make A Cake was one of my first and most favorite experiences when I first started, and I’m glad you’ve shared it among the developing team. I’ve spent a lot of time looking at games and kinda interpreting how a lot of these games have fallen and risen, such as Make A Cake. On another note, I’d be more than happy to do a little tour along with an interview for a video! I joined your discord server a few hours ago after reading this comment, and I go under “PerChaps”on discord. There would be a few kinks I would need worked out, but we can definitely discuss it later. I’m more than willing to do something like this and I thank you greatly for this opportunity. I’ll more than likely message one of you once I have the time! Thank you, once again :)

You're welcome! Nowadays, the wiki (and its sister wiki, Perfection Roblox Games Wiki) aren't really actively updated/worked on anymore due to outdated writing styles, sharing bad history with another set of now-defunct wikis, along with being overall restrictive. However, a successor was made (called Roblox Reviews) that's far less restrictive than both Garbage and Perfection Roblox Games Wiki, though it's been struggling to get attention. Again though, nice to see someone genuinely enjoy taking a look at Garbage and Perfection Roblox Games Wiki.

I personally think one game you should have included that tried to keep its legacy was the normal elevator. It used to be really popular among KZbinr and little kids. But due to copyright in recent years most of sounds from the floors have either had covers ( like the snoop dog floor) or have had it replaced entirely. It usually averages around 600-400 players daily. It never really changed since the 2016 fame it got and the ui and shop is the exact same from then.

regarding Speed Run 4, it is always a go-to of mine when ive had a stressful day. To just mindlessly run and jump and go through the different levels is so therapeutic for me in a way that i dont quite understand.

[@herrk121]

Oh damn, just realizing that i haven't seriously played these games for such a long time is crazy. I will never forget that i literally joined roblox in 2017 just because of a PVZ game that used to be quite popular at the time.

Honestly, a game that’s a classic for me is Enchantix High. If you don’t know: Enchantix high was a Winx fan game where you roleplay and attend classes in a school for fairies and mermaids. You could also dress up and buy stuff like wings from the store. As to how it is now…I personally like it, but the majority of the community has a bunch of complaints. The Enchantix High game I talked about before has been deleted due to copyright issues, and the game rebranded as Royale High. Despite having a different name, the premise is pretty much the same, with some major differences. For some, there are now three schools you can play in. Campus 1 (Aka ‘classic campus’), which mainly focusses on attending classes. Campus 2 is essentially campus 1, but the location looks much nicer, and Campus 3 is an unfinished location that mainly focusses on roleplay. As of writing this, a Campus 4 is on the way, which is a combination of roleplay and attending classes. Some common complaints I see about the games are: 1. The overpricing of items. Royale High’s item shop has EXPLODED over time, constantly adding new clothes and accessories. However, many people consider the items to be overpriced. I think I remember one of the sets (Basically a bundle of clothes and accessories) being over 180k diamonds (the currency of the game), if you wanted to buy the whole set. This was way too expensive for people, especially considering that you can’t farm diamonds like we used to do (Diamonds would randomly spawn on set locations in campus 2. This feature has been removed and diamonds now spawn more sparsely, in random locations). Now, the only way to get diamonds is to level up by doing quests and classes, which can be pretty frustrating if you don’t have diamond multipliers (gamepasses that make you earn more diamonds. For example, you earn 300 diamonds when you level up. I own the 2x multiplier gamepass, so I get 600 diamonds when I level up) 2. How stale the gameplay is. This isn’t something that the developers can control, but it did leave a lot of people to quit. Back then, you could see roleplay everywhere, from every edgy theme you can think of. Light fairies vs Dark fairies, werewolves (something I did as a kid), dramas, you name it. Now, people just join the game to claim their rewards and do quests. I’ve seen some wholesome messages in chat, but no roleplay to find. Even worse, some people will bully you when you rp. I once tried to rp, but I got mocked. For roleplaying in a roleplay game…I hope you see the problem. 3. Toys. This is a fairly recent problem. Royale High started to publish toys to promote their game, think of playsets and dolls. A lot of people complain that the dolls are ugly and very cheap looking. The most infamous doll is the Valkyrie doll. The Valkyrie is basically the game’s mascot. But aside from that, the doll has many major problems, which include that the doll is considered cheap-looking, it’s way too overpriced (50 US dollars), it doesn’t ship to Europe (I think), and that buying the doll gives you a free set in the game, which many people deem unfair. But, one big problem that all the dolls face is the fact that the company making the dolls supports, well…they support Israel in the current war. This is a turning point for most people to not buy the dolls, which I do understand. So, in conclusion, what do I think about the game? Honestly, despite its flaws, I still really like the game. Sure, the game lost a bit of its magic that I had playing it when I was a kid, but then I realise that kids are entertained more easily. I still really like playing the game. I mainly play the game to do quests and level up, allowing me to buy clothes, accessories and dorm items to decorate both myself and my dorm with. There’s just something so satisfying about buying a skirt or heels you always wanted. Of course I don’t support some stuff that’s going on in the RH community, such as the company who makes the dolls (despite the fact that I think the dolls are cute), but this game is really just a way for me to escape reality for a bit, which, honestly, we all need at times.

I remember playing stop it slender way back in 2014-2015, and I remember getting so hyped whenever I got to play as slenderman. Some other games I loved playing around that time period were the "mad" games from mad studio; og mad murderer, mad games, mad paintball 1/2. I would spend hours on those games, and it sucks that the playercount for those games died completely

[@djplonghead5403]

I used to play with friends so much and now we are just too busy. It was crazy that we could go to each others house every week and play minecraft for hours in the summer. Same thing with build a cake, meepcity, build a pizza, etc. Edit- also 2 player tycoons and tycoons in general were very popular. Clone tycoon, wizard tycoon, etc. I wish games still had screenshots from the game instead of trash clickbait thumbnails. Kids are becoming less and less mature. My friends and I didn’t have phones like modern kids… we used the roblox chat (on the site) to talk to each other and see when we could play.

[@thehexofficial]

Flood Escape 2 is still holding up surprisingly well all things considered. Great, devoted map creators and an ambitious community with plenty of love from Crazyblox. They introduced a performance update recently and I can confidently say it has made the game 2x more enjoyable.

OMG THIS BROUGHT BACK SO MUCH NOSTALGIA THIS MADE ME CRY OF HOW GOOD MEMORIES I MADE FROM THESE GAMES

[@narnia_eclipse389]

one iconic game that changed dramatically was Pokemon Fighters EX, now known as Monsters of Etheria. it was so good originally, playing with friends multiple times a week on that game was my jam. i didn't even watch pokemon but learnt about new ones due to that game and i would always get excited when a new pokemon spawned and i didn't already have it. the race to the top of the tree was so intense istg

[@TacBans]

Man, seeing some OG Flood Escape brought me back. I sucked at that game back then, but i remember buying the Sword pass. If you ever do cover some more old games, I'd recommend either the Stalker games (Clonetrooper1019/Maximum_ADHD) or Amazeman's games, like Titanic or Survive The End Of Roblox. (The latter is broken and a working revival is currently maintained by KadenZombie8)

[@aride987]

make a part 2 of this video with the missing games (se examples could be survive and kill the killers in area 51, roblox deathrun, horror/normal/any OG elevator game, maybe freeze tag, etc)

[@aride987]

I said "maybe freeze tag" because idk if you cuold consider it a clasic

[@PerChaps]

I definitely will get around to making a part 2, there’s so many games that I cut for times sake and wanting to get this video out in a timely manner. If I ever get to having the time and resources, I will definitely make like a 2 hour version of this video just jumping from game to game.

[@CHICKENFINGERSFC]

[@LaserStr]

I still remember the days in 2018-2019 when I played with my friends in Flood Escape 2. Back then I was just an iPad kid so I wasn’t exactly good. I could barely beat insane maps back then and definitely not the 3 hardest ones. Then a year ago I returned and overcame the 3 last insane maps and even beat some crazy maps starting with Blue moon and Poisonous chasm. And now my third time returning, I have every crazy other than 1 (Active Volcanic Mines is HARRRRRRRRRRD) and I’m hoping to beat it in the next few weeks. I also wanna try out the crazy+ difficulty maps and see where the current difficulty ceiling is roughly at. This game is so nostalgic and I can go on and on. One thing that does make someone impressed though, is the progression of difficulty from Dark Sci Facility (Insane 4.8) back in my day to Blue Moon (Crazy 5.4) in 2019 to Sandswept Ruins (Crazy 5.6) in 2022 to Active Volcanic Mines (Crazy 5.9) in 2023 to the Crazy+ maps (6 and above) we have today. Guess the shock of coming back to a game I haven’t touched in half a decade and then still enjoying it like something new hits very hard. Glad I found this video!

[@NotFamousForCommenting]

Those were my games back in the day, enjoyed playing them almost everyday. Disappointing to see kids nowadays play games that just weren't nostalgic or childhood types. If I do happen to have kids someday, Ima make sure they are raised like 2000s kids and show them every childhood games, movies, and toys.

[@false_hope2149]

It was always heartbreaking when I went back to visit an old game I used to play on roblox and saw that it was either shutdown or dead. Thank you for covering this topic though as I never saw anyone else talk about it

[@alt9563]

Used to play all of these, but forgot about a lot until this video. Ty for giving these memories back to me. Truly classics. Flood escape was especially my favourite tho. I used to play the first one all the time, and then the second one too. I remember I was arguing with some 8 yr old (tbf, i was 8 too) and we were both calling each other bad cause one of us finished first. Then we became friends for some reason??? Played a lot of games together after that but then I ended it for some stupid reason. Still regret that. Good times tho

[@TJ-hg6op]

Flood Escape 2 is such an amazing game, it still gets consistently updated and is one of, if not THE best obby game on Roblox. Also the original soundtrack is amazing, and they’ve added new difficulties and modes.

[@Lancerious]

Great vid! I remember playing a couple of these games when I first joined Roblox in 2017. I only have one question...where is my man, the GOAT Natural Disaster Survival? It's one of the oldest games compared to the games you mentioned, created in 2008--though that's when the place itself was created, not necessarily the game. It's barely changed over the years, and the few changes are UI and a couple new maps here & there...and a virus disaster I guess lol. It was one of the very first Roblox games I ever played & gives me EXTREME nostalgia. Also the game still gets very good player counts, ranging from the 1000s-low 20000s most of the time

[@PerChaps]

I really considered adding Natural Disaster Survival, but it was very similar to my point about Epic Minigames, and I didn’t want this video to jump over the 20-ish minute mark because that would just be too much editing for me. Editing, recording and voicing over my videos takes a lot of time and having another game to talk about might’ve pushed this video out like a week later. If I ever get to making a second video like this one, I will include it.

[@alexandersveryown4760]

Does anyone remember this old roblox game that was all about swords and it was basically a multiplayer adventure story driven sword game? You go through areas and fight enemies with others being around and you unlock/upgrade swords as you go. This was back when roblox characters were all the same style. I cant remember the name. Miss it.

[@superstar666.13]

make a cake was originally called make a cake: back for seconds! but unfortunately changed names to a more simple and dumbed down feeling one. Like I guess since it's the one being updated it doesn't need the sequel branding but still a little sad I feel. It's also still a bit classic, just late late era classic, when monetization begun classic, edge between classic and modern kind of game. IT IS STILL GREAT! And they stay true to what classic games were in this. also, it came before the two examples you used of what it could be taking inspiration from. Long before! but this was a real good video.

Of course! This was definitely a little nostalgia trip for me too! I started playing in 2014, so a lot of these games really made the basis of how I got to know the Roblox platform.

[@tofphuu5781]

While i am happy the fact coding and game development has expanded in roblox. i almost feel like its (sometimes) wasted potential because so many of the top front page games are just recreation with slight difference or even down right plagiarism of eachother/already existing games. Now im not disappointed at how far roblox developed, but its like handing all the best tools in the world to a highschooler who's only plan is to glue to boards together for a woodshop class. It's wasted potential. One of the things that made old roblox special was the simplicity of the platforms. Many of us in 2008-2016 just wanted a short game that had a easy centralized idea with enough content to satisfy us which at the time worked. In my opinion there were more unique games back then compared to modern day roblox. I really hope we get more games that arent over complexed, fun, and original games. That's where legendary developers spawn from, people like Wingman8 (creator of ship battle game Galleons), StickMasterLuke (creator of natural disaster, lasertag arena, underground war and much more)
