[@DanutJMK]

I ve been developing for 3 years now and I want to tell you something. I was working on a RPG game with my friend, and then out of nowhere he pulls up to me and says :"Yo, can you script this?". It happend to be a simple quiz game with a horror feeling. I put almost 0% in that game and after we released it, it got thousands of views and hundreds of players. If your game is complex it doesn`t mean that it`s gonna blow up. Wish you the best luck and keep your self motivated!

[@r4venboy981]

What's the game called?

[@shackles5850]

Yes! Always start small too. I had this massive plan to make a catalog-based game years ago when UGC first released - think "avatar catalog creator" if it was made in 2020. Finished it, polished it, released in January 2020 and it didn't get much attention. Last year, I made a similar, season-based outfit idea game to showcase smaller UGC creators and clothing designers, which somehow managed to hit 12M visits a few months ago.

[@ingnitedtoast4312]

Dude I hate when this happens as a player, seeing solid but overused concepts or just mid games in general get thousands of players, not saying these games are bad or anything, but there’s some games out there that are absolute gems that get like 100 players.

[@R-E-V-E-R-B]

Another tip that iim actively following is, Dont try to be too unique, or in better words, dont feel like everything you do for your game has to be completely new or different. Thats gonna make you want to quit after you realize theres just no way to be 100% unique. Theres millions of games on roblox, youre bound to do something someone has already done, and thats okay. Just focus on your execution of the thing instead of trying to compete.

[@xHitroverx]

Yeah and the best part about that, you will almost always find an answer to the problem!

[@katdoestuffYT]

true but uniqueness it still very important or the game might barely get a dedicated fanbase, like if you want to make a simulator i see soo many people just copying a basic simulator game expecting people to play, but if you changed how it actually worked that makes it different from others then more people would play

[@R-E-V-E-R-B]

@@katdoestuffYT oh yeah for sure. Take an opportunity to do something different, but, dont over think it.

[@lolila_da_taro]

I need to hear this, Thank you so much, My head is exploding because trying to think of 100% unique game😂😂❤❤

[@RealVergilSparda]

different doesnt mean better and i think roblox yters need to understand that because "unique" is the only compliment they can give to a game nowadays

[@cardinvuong9742]

I think there's also another important aspect that I don't think was mention: knowing yourself and your own capabilities. Some people might try making large projects right off the start or get too ambitious and become unmotivated or don't know how to do something. It's important to start at a point you can actually handle. Nobody is born smart or strong

why is this acc good advice help

[@tsaroftheunion]

My best advice here to contribute would be organizing all your thoughts. It's really easy to add on something just because it's cool or immediately go onto making things for the hell of it but you have to have some foundations first. Whether that'd be actual scripting knowledge or getting a scripted foundation in or planning it out with something like Google Slides which was most helpful to me.

[@KARMA_05]

im using google docs lol

[@kazii_the_avali]

i suggest instead of making a game design document make a obsidian vault. that sounds weird to those who dont know but obsidion is a connected note program that allows basically everything that a game design document would but with the addition of markdown, checkboxes, a canvas (witch is basically a spreadsheat) aswell as linking documents and seeing every document you make for the vault in a node graph. it is beautiful for orginization and i highly recommend it.

[@EndlessExpanse_game]

Notion works really well as well, but good suggestion!

[@k1ng_chicken]

[@coreyy2360]

for my game idk how to really describe it, so heres what im planning to make the description: “You wake up in a strange room, as you try to leave you discover a long hallway. As you continue walking, you realize that this hallway seems to be going on forever, and you keep hearing a strange voice.. Can you make escape? Even if there is one..” its not finalized yet, but this is kinda explains what the game is.

[@doggoin_times9094]

My personal opinion, I think there should be more gameplay elements to that idea since it could be boring with all the walking and if that was all there was to it.

[@viberbread]

man if i could tell you how many games i rejected just because they didnt include basic details like their genre and core gameplay elements i would not have enough numbers, just PLEASE include the genre of the game, especially if its descriptive like "Horror-Adventure experience about (and list all of your core gameplay elements and highlights)"

[@marzcra332]

​​@@viberbreadi'm literally doing in "solo" mode a full game, i think it's cool. Basically the main concept is you are in a post apocaliptic small town, around everywere are enemies (with their own characteristics ofc) theres guns, and threse is probable be small missions, and a boss to when be defeated you go to another map (i plan make 7), the main thing about the maps is that they are big and detailed, telling you the history. I have everything, but i'm struggling with the guns and how to make missions. Because i don't know scripting

[@LuisFajardo-xm5nn]

i think if you tried adding a large comedy aspect, it would make your game more exciting

[@gerinko7874]

Make the walk slowly speed up into a full sprint with a quick time event style random key input, that could be fun.

There will just be one map but if become experienced enough I could make entire lore with new battles but for now itll just be premade characters with smooth running, walking, and crouching animations fighting on a capture a hill map with rounds. I'm also planning to add tanks and vehicles but I'm not experienced enough so that would have to wait.

Hello lads! Game Designer and Professional in the industry here. Most of what this video says is absolutely correct and very important to remember. Although some of the terms he uses are wrong, it is still a great video. One of the most important things here is not to be over ambitious, from what I've seen from my buds at roblox, most teams tend to dream more than they make, avoid that and keep it simple first. Always have a realistic idea about what you are making instead of just dreaming about it and making it an unachievable goal. Make sure it's something you can actually accomplish!

I have a amazing idea of making a 2d platforming game with unique sword animations, and movement animations. There would be different powerup you can get from different levels (double jump, the ability to phase through objects you normally couldn't to get to secret rooms to get items, dash, etc). It would be much like Hollowknight, if you know what that is. The problem being. I don't know how to animate, make a inventory system, or make good items. This idea has just been sitting in my head while I hope someone out there makes it. I feel like 2d platforming games on Roblox or 2d games in general could be a whole new popular genre on Roblox. The standout feature of the game would be the hard boss fights, and combat system. I love this video, and hopefully I can put some of your tips if not all to good use some day. Thanks!

Very interesting, definitely an excellent idea to make your game even better for your targeted audience, But we all know Roblox unfortunately doesn’t have every kind of audience, for example.. horror games, like the mimic, it’s has a limited player count due to the limited audience, so how would I know if my game or anybody else’s game would have a limited player count due to the limited audience that they are targeting, and could this limited barrier be broken somehow?

this gon b long alright so, I have a crazy ass idea for a roblox game but there are so many complications in the way. 1. the amount of time it would take 2. i doubt my laptop or let alone roblox could handle something as crazy as this 3. plus i have no idea how to script/code 4. making the story line would be literally hell with all the choices that i have physically in my head idk if i could do them all the idea essentially is to create a game like detroit become human a story like game but then also have it like the black mirror movie bandersnatch. i want to create a game that allows you to make your own choices but still keeps the cinematic movie like effect. each choice leads into a subsection that leads into another subsection and so on. for example : “ a guy walks into a store” A1 - looks around walks out B1 - buys an apple C1 - makes a phone call D1 - robs the store A2 - gets stopped by a person (speak to them, ignore) A2 1.1 - if you chose to speak to said person such and such happens A2 1.2 - if you ignore them this happens B2 - goes out to car because he forgets his wallet and so on it’s a lot to write and generate a whole story line which is why i’m sure dude in the movie went crazy trying to replicate the book into a game form. it’s a fascinating concept that i would love to put into a game. and i haven’t seen anyone try to make anything like that yet on Roblox yet at least and have it be like actually great unless im missing something. I’d really appreciate advice or help if possible on how to go about doing this, i’ve had the idea for awhile was just never sure how to execute it and another thing is how to tie all the choices together and have it all be one cohesive story. If anyone had suggestions or if i should quit cause it’s too crazy let me know 😭. but help is desperately needed. I doubt i could do this alone.

Right now I've been messing around making a very silly game with my young nephew, just to practice my scripting skills and test mechanics I might use in real games later. The whole point of it is just to throw stuff from toolbox in and enjoy the janky fun 😅. I do have a more serious idea though, one I'm really excited about making! Now I'm planning to use Obsidian Notes and make a game design doc, it'll probably be a solo project until I've got at least an MVP prototype.

[@smartcraft1207]

took me quite a lot of attempts but I did after years of hard dedication get a game and a running project

[@kitsuneWC]

My game is a book series imxmaking, itll be stories/role-playing, BUT to get the awesome lore, you need to find secrets, youll get a badge, and if you make a badge, lots of people will spend their time finding it maybe even buying a gamepass? Anyway, its a wolf game, 4 tribes, they were allies first, until the Great War happened. Anyway not gonna say the lore here xD I made a early access game , put it in my community tab, its 25 robux (tried to make it 10 but 25 was the minimum) "What dontt they like? (Shows grass)" You did then dirty

Been waiting for this video

[@RoyalChicken911]

Cool video, I have been studying a lot this months how to program and model thinks, and I think I’m prepared, the only issue is that i dont have ideas😅

[@SmartyRBX]

Thanks You can do it! Here's my vids on getting game ideas: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqLRanSCbrengZI kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZKtZnWGrLafbM0

@@SmartyRBX so useful thank you

[@Pancake_Bunny1]

[@SmartyRBX]

Any time!

[@RadiationConsumerNumber002]

im making a roblox game and its basic, just the gmod flatgrass with 2 nextbots, these nextbots are named "Hamburger" and "Bloxy" and i used a plugin to make that when you die you fall like a ragdoll, and that it be on first person, also i just used 3 free models, the customizable nextbot(2 times) and the gmod flat grass thing, just that, i also putted barriers so no one escape, but it got created yesterday

[@comet3429]

Yo thanks this was really helpful , might start making a roblox game soon

[@ArchieGibbons]

Hi, im thinking of making an obby game, but its also a zombie apocalypse, like each 10 stages or so you have to kill waves of zombies, and you can buy better melee and ranged weapons. Also pvp is on throughout all of it. What do you think of that idea for my game?

[@DeltaSanz]

Sounds good but make a mode where its a team based wave zombie game also for abit more casual players

[@Fr4nk_CD]

That sounds like a co-op zombie game where you have to go through maps and kill zombies. Look up Zombie Tower. It's a classic game which has the idea you may think of.

[@kataa7528]

i really like to make games out of my ideas like doing art i honestly dont care if people dont play it that much but im satisfied when im succesful with the ideas

[@notRashEd]

This helped SO MUCH THANK YOU

[@CindyLouHouVille]

Hey smarty! I have just started watching your channel so I can become a dev. But I have a game I want to make but there seems to be no tutorials for it! I want to make a clothing idea game! If you can help please do!

[@SmartyRBX]

Yeah learn the basics you gotta learn fundamentals and mess with smaller stuff then you’ll know how to make entire games without specific tutorials on them

[@CindyLouHouVille]

@@SmartyRBX ok!

[@SlimcantEdit]

Thinking about making a 2d fighting game styled like street fighter and mortal kombat 9 with x rays and fatalities

[@Elix111]

Tip: if you want to make an scary game, make an terror game, not horror, because it will be scarier

[@joemogley]

Do you have brain damage

[@1000-THR]

terror game isnt a genre, its something you can use in your horror games to make them scary, although it works really well in games that arent centered around being scary such as subnautica

[@smartcraft1207]

I have only brought games to the final stage but never to the release of it only to the beta stages it’s because the final touches in my opinion are always the most difficult

[@The_Hampter_Aviator]

This was helpfull cause I was thinking about making a milsim black hawk down single campaign but I had no idea where to start thanks.

[@TheXBizzy]

"What don't they like" Grass lmao. Good Video

[@mrk_bo]

Props to this man. He is the reason why all games on roblox existed... Because they watched this first.

[@RiddleRations]

Awesome tips for Roblox games! So cool!

I’m working on a small pvp/pve/bossfight game and this vid really helped out so I wanted to say ty❤️❤️

[@MemedPixel]

i am planning to create a card game because me and some friends created this thing called "bob cards" we have a lot of cards an a few comics of the stuff, im specifically trying to make the game to spread the game, i might edit this once i finish the game

[@Buffkangaroo122]

My tips based on my experience playing Roblox: 1: Make sure it's still fun even after completing the game. I played many games that have a structure where you grind to the end of the game, and usually after I complete it I don't feel any reason to play anymore and it isn't that fun, and many players just quit after 15 minutes because they don't feel like grinding. 2. Have an original idea or make the gameplay different. If you make a game that is very similar to other popular games, there won't be much point playing because there's nothing interesting and most players would choose the other game when they have more progress or it's more popular. 3. Don't make pay to win gamepasses. These gamepasses cause alot of complaint and unfairness in the game, making it not that fun. My idea is that the gamepasses only make stuff look really cool so it's fair and people would still buy it. 4: Don't make the game too complex. If you add too many features or things you need to do, it can become tiring or too complicated to play. 5: Make it mobile compatible or release a different version that's mobile compatible. A huge majority of players are mobile players, and unless you don't want to have lots of players, your game can become a lot more popular. Especially if there's themes or things that kids like. But I'm not a game designer so I honestly don't know about this one

[@1000-THR]

grinding is the worst

[@SleepyRBS]

I’ve been in Roblox Studio for almost 4 years now, I’ve developed well in terms of construction, but in terms of scripts there’s a complete hole in what I can do with scripts is the mouse click function, lederstats, datastore and animations, can you give me advice on how to improve my knowledge of scripts?

[@hintofminty]

Not the creator, but I've also been a struggling scripter for a long time and I have to say, learn by doing has been wonders for me. I learn and understand concepts mainly from DevForums and Roblox Documentations and try to work from there. I mainly script simple stuff like saving a simple string that gets stored in a database. Trying to copy from Roblox scripting KZbinrs helps at times if they explain what they're talking about and doing the work step by step. Joining a Discord server that has channels for code help has helped me a ton since the people there can fix and explain why a certain block of code isn't working. Hope these tips helped!

[@DoctorBones1]

What is there to not understand about the mouse click function?

[@flynnlies6944]

This is not how you make a game. You assume that what you're trying to make is just gonna work out, but in general that's now how this works. I would suggest looking into how indie game development works. And the management aspect was just too surface level to really take away anything.

[@SmartyRBX]

On Roblox, it absolutely can. It is not like other platforms. Just start.

[@TheReal4L3X]

damn bro im the complete opposite. my lack of creativity makes me stay hours trying to find an idea but nothing even tho im an experienced developer and coder
