I tested the Worst Game Engines...

these game engines weren't very good
play my Roblox game www.roblox.com/games/15418671...
I didn't watch any tutorials for these engines which probably made the experience even worse. I'd be keen to try roblox again and actually get a script working, let me know if you would be interested

Scratch is a really good engine though... so its not a bad engine if you dont do stuff properly... alot can be done in it... and your parent thing is infact really easy to pull off with movements

[@Emerald1680]

Roblox actually isn't that bad, it just takes time to learn. Like some of the games made on Roblox look like they should not even be on Roblox. Some look super realistic and crazy that could pass as games that were uploaded on something like steam. But yeah, it takes a good amount of time to learn, but once you get the hang of it, it is a pretty good game engine, especially for beginners who are getting into game developing that want to get in the more complex stuff.

[@tobycollier]

Yeah I definitely agree, it's easy enough to work out how to do something basic (like an obstacle course) which encourages you to learn more to get better at the engine. I just hate the UI tho 😭

bro looked at the roblox docs for 2 seconds and went "THIS IS TOO HARD!"

[@ssdrbx6180]

roblox lua heavily rely on callback rather than method overriding, so it is kinda like programming in javascript (node js in specific) So to make a touch button is like "brick.Touched:Connect(function(player)print("player who hit "..player) end)" There was community dev wiki but roblox nuked it long ago, since then there is not much documentation on how callback works. Every new roblox programmer struggles on understanding it so it is normal

[@ssdrbx6180]

And if you know React there is a compiler allow you to program in component-based typescript, which older developer tends to use.

[@IlluminaWorks]

didnt he say a button topress with a clickdetector?

[@ssdrbx6180]

@@IlluminaWorks then it is clickDetector.MouseClick:Connect lol

[@7miloK]

for roblox u had too add that if it touches the player, print (blahblah) for button script then in the GUI script put it so visible=false and if the word is printed set visible=true then put wait(#) then visible=false. u can use visible, or transparent if you want it too be any were between

[@7miloK]

roblox is better for me also so easy for a game to have lots of players

[@riggyhelper]

"scratch" was recommended in my school to learn._.

[@MajesticUC]

as a roblox developer, i can confirm that studio is awful

[@planeguy737-1]

agree for sure, constraints are glitchy as shit for me

[@IlluminaWorks]

btw roblox uses lua also you need to add a clickdetector to make a button and the clint and server ineract with script and local script and remote events and most of the community hate the tool box as people who cant script dont understand if there is a backdoor or not

[@tw1sted8]

Scratch games can actually be pretty good if you're experienced with it. I've seen several people make 3d games on there, one of them is even online. Scratch Jr however is a different story.

[@imdrogon]

It's not the car, it's the driver. Same with coding. It's not the engine, it's the user.

[@mortmortington240]

calling roblox worse than powerpoint is a little disingenuous although they are easily the worst company

[@tobycollier]

Yeah I definitely agree, I don't think my closing remarks actually represented how I feel about the actual engines lmao

[@vladls]

all those "Worst" Game Engines are not bad, you just have a massive skill issue

[@Jelly_shy_guy_man]

POWER POINT AND RAW BLOCKS ARE THE BEST

[@space-diny7667]

Google slides are good ironically

[@DavidLuvsBread]

aint no way he put roblox in there, and also, scratch is a learning software. Roblox developing takes skill to use, you are meant to make things in modeling softwares and animate them there, or with a roblox plugin, and insert them into the game, or make your own custom animations for roblox characters, you are meant to do complex scripting aswell. Toolbox is usermade models and most have viruses. If anything, you trying to dev was just a huge skill issue. And this isnt biased, I've tried before and am now decent at it, being part of a studio that has made a game called "Find the kirbos" which has gotten a million visits, now called FTK legacy. It just takes massive amounts of skill, (Which I Dont have) Take a look at some of the front page games, but no simulators unless its pet simulator 99

[@tobycollier]

Hey thank you for your comment, I definitely agree with you and I do think Roblox is a solid engine. The main metric I was rating these off of was how easy they are to pick up and explore. Without using any tutorials it's a daunting engine. With that being said my real problems with the engine are the actual Roblox community and moderation systems which are what threw me off even wanting to learn the engine in depth. I did try to highlight the idea that these engines can be really good if you do know how to use them but yeah, it really was a skill issue and I wasn't trying show anything but that

[@WhiteOut_RBLX]

​@@tobycollier The way you represented roblox is pretty infuriating though. You can't use an engine without learning it at all. Not even checking what language it uses. It honestly felt like you just put roblox in there to throw shade.

[@tobycollier]

I dunno if that's true if you look at an engine like scratch and the fact that I was able to make anything without looking at a single tutorial puts it up there as a solid engine that I might come back to. I will admit tho that yes initially I did just put it in because I believe Roblox isn't a great company but I did actually enjoy my time in the engine which I definitely should've conveyed better

[@DavidLuvsBread]

@@tobycollier Oh alright sorry if I sounded rude

[@WhiteOut_RBLX]

@@tobycollier There is a big diffrience between a children's learning tool with visual coding and an engine for a platform that allows you to make pretty much anything.

Yo thanks dude. I do actually appreciate the criticism from the community because it's showing me a side of things I didn't see before and makes me want to continue to learn and make better games and videos!

[@joca7670]

skill issue on roblox engine lol roblox studio uses "lua" for scripting and to prevent objects from falling just anchor them, its not that hard, skill issue

[@herecomestheboi3211]

yeah but every object i put i gets a tornado sucking script

That's real, maybe I'll just have to explore the engine some more

Personally I feel that any game can be made good with enough effort spent. Overall I feel that the developer is what truly makes the game good. The engine has little impact on the final product when the developer is skilled enough

Neither does scratch though and it was really just thrown in as a little joke

[@avee0078]

the coding language in roblox is lua

[@mr2meows]

scratch sucks it runs like shit and it will randomly shadowban your project without telling you and it takes weeks for the search to update and add new projects so you'll never know if its actually shadowbanned or not

[@tobycollier]

The website and discovery tools might not be great but as an engine it gets kids engaged with programming and problem solving which I think makes up for it!

Roblox isnt directly made for kids, its a platform for all ages. Do you think having to do complex scripts, animating, modeling, and music composing is really for kids? The studio isnt meant to be used by kids, but the games are meant to be played by all ages, kids, teens, adults with no life, etc.

[@DavidLuvsBread]

Scratch is straight up a kids platform tho since the "Scripting" is just placing bars together

[@tobycollier]

While the platforms and engines might be, they're still solid game engines that are the home to some of the most insane games I've seen. So, I wanted to explore then
