Roblox Creators STOLE my Game

[@HIAMNK]

I can imagine the 30 minutes Lixian spent completely calm setting up his Roblox account, making sure his recording equipment was ready, and checking if he had anything in his teeth before hitting start and acting like he’s angry.

[@Jamv0122]

That'd be hilarious

[@LixianTV]

Pretty much, yeah 😂

[@markiplierfromwalmart]

[@AverageDev_Tutorials]

​@@LixianTVas a game developer, I tried using Roblox and I have to say the engine is pretty nice. You can create a multiplayer game and monetize it for free. Its coding language is very fast and it allows you to import models from stuff like blender. The scripting is a lot like Python and I was able to remake a really high quality FNAF 1 game! In terms of the games you can play, I've tried some and most notably I liked the games called Phantom forces, frontlines, and jailbreak. Those games were really well made I would love to see more Roblox videos! Your video was fun to watch! I hope to see more.

[@EverestTheNobody]

Just not a large portion of the community. It’s in shambles right now. Also the Roblox devs are kind of surrounded by a lot of major controversy rn so… yeah. But I love how you can make games that are so good that you wouldn’t even think it’s a Roblox game! It’s really fun to think about how good you can make a roblox game, and I personally enjoy the thought of being a roblox game developer. Though, there is…. Complications to that… I still would absolutely love to at least explore the boundaries of the roblox engine.

[@ninjarmadillo1]

Just to answer a few points for Lix about Roblox: • A lot of Roblox games have a tenancy to copy eachother or copy other games, e.g. the several pet sim games that currently exist. • The reason why the audio cuts off is mostly Roblox's fault, we don't upload audio to the game we upload it to Roblox where it gets moderated. The reason the sound gets cut off is probably because the dev didn't want to pay extra for longer audio or they pulled it for free from the library. It could also be beacuse the Sound part got deleted or moved too far away from the player. • Some devs are known for decompiling already existing games and pulling models and textures from it to re-use in copies or other unrelated games, I wouldn't be surprised if this is the case for the wallpaper and the mop. • You picked up the key without pressing anything probably because there was a TouchedEvent script inside the key. • Every game in Roblox is an online game, using their servers as the host. The reason you can play in essentially singleplayer is because the developer set the "place" as having a player limit of 1 per server. • Places and experiences are two different things, tl:dr an experience is an entire game but a place can be a map or minigame inside of an experience but you have to change server to go to it. • It's actually kind of amusing you saying the Roblox Engine is good, for developers it's notoriously riddled with issues that Roblox have failed to fix or have fixed poorly. Up until Byfron (Roblox Anti Cheat) came along, these issues were exploited by players to gain unfair advantages or to break games or even to download games. This is why we call them exploiters instead of hackers. • What is it like to make a game in Roblox? The short answer is very easy, Roblox Studio is quite easy to learn and theres plenty of videos on how to use it best. The long answer is, not great. If you go to them to just make a game then thats perfect, if you want to do anything else such as have actual players or earn money you have basically no chance due to Roblox's taxing system, Steam takes 30% off of developers meanwhile Roblox takes about 80% maybe even more than this in the end if you want to cash it out to real money. Getting a game to have players takes dedication and a lot of money to get advertising. • Should you make a game in Roblox? Not my decison to make, but I do ask you research the developer side of Roblox more before trying. Hopefully lix sees this, and if anyone has issues with what I wrote I'd be happy to correct them if you point it out in the comments. - Ex Roblox Developer (Builder and Scripter), 3 years experience.

[@HiddenRealm]

Thank you for this informative post, I kinda hope Lixian pins it. An objective way of just saying that the developers are stealing people's work outside of Roblox, and benefitting off of them on the platform, which is a practice that should not be so easily excused and encouraged frankly.

The worst of that, is that Roblox bootleg usually get more people to like the stolen than the original, something similar happened with another indie dev who's game was reproduced in Roblox and made 20 times more fame to the bootlegger than the original dev

[@aliciafraser1835]

That's why someone needs to take legal action. Start teaching lessons. Not entirely sure why no one has yet.

[@HiddenRealm]

You're talking about the game Mark platformed and tried to support. Kinda hurts to see Lixian hinder that idea inadvertantly, by instead platforming people stealing other's works. The story behind the game you're talking about, is that the original developer didn't have a following, so their game wasn't noticed. The Roblox people asked to clone it. He gave permission. Roblox is a huge platform, that makes it easy to get noticed. That version blew up. Original Dev has to take-down the roblox verison, because it was only hurting his ability to get his actual game any attention. This kinda shit needs to fucking stop.

[@HiddenRealm]

I mean, frankly, if he doesn't care, then whatever, but don't platform it, and just excuse the fact that it's happening to everyone else around him as well. He literally just advertised four stolen games for these roblox shitheads. Mark excuses people of using *his* content for memes. Not blatant ripoffs of his works. Mark is simply lucky that the things he creates are large-scale works beyond movie-length in effort, so they can't just get stolen. And if someone does use it, it's usually an isolated case to just stealing HIS stuff, usually for a meme that's transformative. This is just a ripoff, and they're doing it to MULTIPLE developers trying to actually create things themselves. That's not something you should encourage. If we wanna make Mark comparisons, Mark went out of his way to support a developer that ALSO got a shitty end of the stick by roblock "developers", by playing his game while he was already busy as hell. Mark demonstrated practically the opposite effect of what is being done here. He was platforming the original developer of someone who'd had to remove a clone of their game off of roblox because it was hindering their own work, and that wasn't even a theft, that was allowed, untill it started negatively affecting their ability to get their game out to people themself. Lixian is accidentally going right against that whole principle, by instead platforming and encouraging the theft of people's games in roblox.

[@sherwinashford]

@@HiddenRealm Well, I guess Lixian also may have shed some light on this whole indie-game stealing scene on roblox. I'm pretty sure he doesn't think these roblox games gain a lot either, since as someone who doesn't know much about roblox would just expect it to be played solely by kids. Kinda like how far you'd expect a cheap mobile GTA clone to go. The problem also mainly lies in how roblox players play roblox versions either so that they can run the game better or so they don't have to download anything more than just Roblox, when in fact even the original game from Itch may run just as well or even better. I try encouraging my school friends to play standalone games and such wherever I can. It's like almost all of them play roblox, but nothing else other than mobile games maybe. There are so many great free games out there, they just need to reach out to platforms like Steam and get used to the atmosphere.

I commend you for your positivity and finding so much nice stuff to say. It really is a carbon copy, and the differences don’t make for a better game experience: there’s more trash to pick up (ie, more time wasting), the floor plan is the same but ADA compliant (the wider-spaced rooms are less realistic and spoil any sense of claustrophobia), and it’s brighter. As you said, if they’d simply changed up the house, it could’ve felt like a continuation of the Late Night Mop series, but this just feels like a rip-off. You put more work into your than they did (and certainly put more work into the scare elements), and we appreciate you for that!

[@HiddenRealm]

Dude, they did something blatantly illegal frankly, and if it were a triple A's game, they'd be stomped into the dirt if they pulled something like this. They even go as far as directly ripping assets out of the original game to steal them by decompiling them. Sure, Lixian doesn't have to care about his own work. But he's platforming "developers" that are also stealing OTHER people's works along with his, and he's complimenting them, and praising them. That is not a good thing.

[@Unownshipper]

@@HiddenRealm I didn't say it was a good thing what they did, so lose the tone because you're coming off very hostile to a total stranger who's not responsible for any of this.

(Even though yeah, the game is indeed a worse copy of his game) And at the same time talking how Lixian SHOULD HAVE reacted, because apparently based on what they say, Lixian should've been more angry and wanted to see the developer gone. But at the same time criticizes him for giving these creators a "platform" and while knowing youtube, it'll actually probably cause some of his fans to harass the dev instead of giving them a bigger platform with new fans.

It's really sad that a lot of the more original (non-copied) games on the roblox platform get pushed to the way side. Due to lack of funding to advertise, or the devs having next to no following to announce their games to. But people who copy popular games will get tons of attention. I wouldn't say to sue. That's just really ridiculous imo, cuz kids/ teens could do like a thousand other things far worse, that would make them deserving of being trialed like they're adults. And copyright is not one of them. It can be beyond infuriating when minors do infringe on copyright. But it's going a bit overboard to send hate mobs their way, or straight up sue them. Because: 1. That'll most likely traumatize them for life (assuming that they *genuinely* didn't mean any harm) 2. Their parents, who probably think that their children would know better, *will* get dragged into the lawsuit with their kid and most definitely lose their job and have difficulty finding employment. And will possibly even get into truck loads of debt. Meaning that even if they did try to teach their kid better before hand. They could most likely go through hell for the rest of their life (/lives) all because they got tangled up in something that their kid did, *without* their knowledge. 3. Hate mobs could very well end up with their info getting doxxed. And put them at serious risk of being physically harmed, or far worse. I'm no legal expert but, I'd say that if any actions are to be taken. Legally or through online interaction. Then at worst (legally), sending a cease and desist is way more logical than just straight up suing. And if anyone should be talking to the people who copied the game. Then it should be the OG creator(s) of the game. Not a massive mob.

I remember back in the day when I used to play "The Town of Robloxia" (one of the many classic experiences in the late 2000s/very early 2010s) everything was pretty much as you stated: Minecraft but not just cubes. Though, as the years have gone by, the engine has... side-graded (I can't fully say improved because while certain aspects have certainly been touched up on, there are still some kinks in need of being ironed out.) However, that doesn't stop developers from making incredible games and experiences! For example, I've found several Sonic the Hedgehog games on Roblox that look and play like some of the official titles, both in the newer, fully 3D ones *and* the classic 16-bit Sega Genesis/MegaDrive games! And that's just one corner of the games you'll find on the website. If you were to make a game on Roblox, I'd definitely love to see and even play it! You're definitely a talented game designer, and even though you'd have to learn to use an entirely new engine, I'm confident that you'd be able make something worthwhile! Of course, that is if you actually want to take the time to do it (nobody can blame you if you don't haha) Great video as always, Lixian! Keep up the phenomenal work!

5:50 Back when I played Roblox (between 2008 and 2012), maps definitely had lower polycounts and such, simply because creators were younger, map creation tools were more simple and because peoples' computers weren't as powerful as they are now. Nowadays people are apparently able to make a living off of making maps and such, and game/ map creation is more streamlined. It's kind of crazy how it's grown.

[@Zaileex]

I wish Lixian posted more often. I loved his interactions indirectly with Mark, so I decided to check out his channel and fell in love. Sucks that he only posts once a decade lmao. Its been about 3 years thag ive been a fan

[@kioshekat7931]

This is absurdity!! But mimicry is flattery. Just wish they reached out to you first with it being THAT similar. Glad you got a great video out of it!

[@LeCainster]

Lix... another great video my dude.

[@victorthemusicman7243]

This feels like such a Markiplier video. Probably because it's edited by Lixian but the only thing thats missing is a little animated Markiplier.

[@EXRazeBurn]

If somebody straight up ripped off Lixian to the point he was legit stealing from him, rest assured, Markiplier would be there in about 5 seconds, politely asking them to stop... ...with his boot on their windpipe.

[@KovarrBlue]

Wow. They didn't even change the wallpaper color. Lixian, I am so sorry this happened, man.

[@HiddenRealm]

I'm more sorry Lixian is apparently okay with this.

[@VandyArtist]

Do it, do it, do it, please!!!! I wanna see what kind of game you would make with roblox!

[@valeriaar19]

i had never seen a roblox game in my life and was just as surprised as you at how well it looks! it doesn't come close to the original but at least you had fun right

Surprisingly there is pretty much everything on Roblox. You just gotta look hard enough

"I would've done that. *pauses* I should've done that." Lmfao, this man is amazing.

[@mynameischris378]

I'm only about 7 minutes into the video, and so far I'm getting the vibe that Lixian is going from "I am mildly annoyed" to "It's a copy, but it's a well made copy. So bravo for that"

[@TheBumblingBea]

I always know it’s gonna be a good vid when it’s from Lix 😊 this was a super fun one 💖

[@margaritasuslonova3633]

Lixian: Oh , you can pick up more than one? Also Lixian : This is Late Night Mop but 10 times the trash Also Lixian: *proceedes to pick only one at a time*

[@akumuryuu]

Yeah. It's often disregarded as a game for children, but Roblox has some really great horror games. Doors being the most well-known, but I think it also has some really good Backrooms games.

[@terivenverien1849]

Most if not all of its horror content being blatantly stolen.

This makes me so freaking happy. Seeing Lixians editing and humor when its already so familiar and cozy and fun from watching mark for the last forever is just so wholesome

Not lixian struggling to install roblox💀

[@CowKirbo]

When I saw someone else play this, I immediately recognized this as your game but stolen.

[@10C45E]

The roblox engine is surprisingly complex and powerful considering it used to basically be an online lego game

[@DeathlyTombstone]

I stopped playing roblox after 8th grade but I would open my dusty account again to check out a roblox game you made

[@Duvstep910]

I love how lixian has adopted the markiplier mannerisms

[@vyke_24]

You know you made it big when you see people making rip-offs of your own work.

[@ArachnoPyro]

Lixian use only 1% of his editing powers on mark A casual lixian video:

[@papasquat9026]

i have been following lixians stuff for years but this is the first let’s play type video i remember and it is INSANE how much his humour is similar to marks while not feeling like he is trying to emulate mark. which i guess makes sense since lixian was originally just a fan of marks (an insanely talented fan) and now he gets to work with a man who’s comedy is only matched by his own. lixian if you switched to full let’s plays i guarantee we would watch that gold.

[@Stennolio]

If only they contacted you before developing the game you made onto Roblox 🤷🏻‍♀️ But at least you still had fun

[@HiddenRealm]

I doubt they even stop to figure out who makes the game before they steal it all. No, correction, they know, because they look for popular ones. They just don't care.

[@Stennolio]

@@HiddenRealm It's truly unfortunate.. 🙁 There's a common sense to everything, but it feels like people nowadays brush it off and like you said they just don't care.

[@RealRoboKnight]

Dude... they literally say IN THE LOADING SCREEN it's inspired by his game...

[@iclynnx]

​@@RealRoboKnight Doesn't make it okay, as the other games that were copied aren't free. It's basically letting people play a very similar game without paying the people who came up with the idea originally. It's not okay to benefit off someone else's idea without permission.

[@Kyrrinx]

I really want Lixian to try and make a game in roblox, it would honestly be really interesting

[@Sleeper____1472]

People don't realize how far the Roblox engine has come graphically. Optimization could be better. Also, I believe it uses the Lua coding language, if you ever decide to make a roblox game.

[@NautilusGray]

Man, if you made a game on Roblox I would love to play it. You can even set it up to be a multiplayer story as well. I would recommend trying the mimic.

[@netherpearlnp33]

1. Someone needs to tell this man about Doors. That's an excellent Roblox horror game. 2. I'd be ecstatic to see a roblox horror game by Lixian of all people.

[@TheUnimate]

honestly the roblox engine (roblox studio) is so stupidly well made, like you can play a game that "doesn't look like roblox" and the next game you play is DEFINITELY roblox. for example the roblox game "Sonic Expedition: The Trial" looks and plays absolutely nothing like roblox id 100% recommend at least trying to make a game on roblox

[@AlmightyTrashGod]

First off, loved seeing your reactions to even just little things, shows an interesting insight into the experience of a new player coming from a game dev background. A few things of note about Roblox games: Roblox games can be clunky due to engine limitations. Some really good games will find ways around this, but a decent amount of games (especially the cash grabs) will just leave you to deal with it. If a game has some naming scheme like "____ Simulator", "____ Legends", or "+1 ____ every second", it is almost always a cash grab that sucks. Same applies to any game where the thumbnail looks like a bad KZbin clickbait video. Unfortunately, too many people are willing to just sit AFK and get scammed in the same games that have been made a million times before for them to die out any time soon. If a game is based on a popular franchise / series / existing game, such as most anime inspired Roblox games or anything similar to a recently released game, it is probably a grindy cash grab that sucks. This is where the copying issue comes in, those games get more popular than original games because there's an existing fanbase, so a lot of creators will piggyback off of the success of something else for easy money. Good Roblox games are few and far between (probably

[@conecraft5958]

I'm still mad he thinks the limit of Roblox is cheap he should play front lines and get a new perspective of Roblox

[@paula1131]

It is me, or the last game was similar to The Convenience store?? But same.. I was surprised how good the games looked like

[@evapunk333]

Yeah, that was DEFINITELY ripped from Convenience Store lol. Very similar..

[@canzatoka]

actually its that one teke teke game-

[@bennie1079]

It’s funny, I can kinda see how you’ve adapted Mark’s “personality” through these videos. A lot of the jokes and the way your “flow” is, is very similar!

[@fruitysnacc]

12:04 the engine for Roblox seems very impressive for making games that could resemble something close to working in unity! or to easily make a fast copy and paste of a game to Roblox(cough). Downside to working with Roblox games would be how it affects playability bc of how high quality or how big the game is (load in time, lag if you have a bunch of things, etc) My own complaint is just how some Roblox controls work, so it takes me out of the horror when you can whip out a flashlight like nothing in a super tense situation, gives me a chuckle though lol

[@VkngVd]

Earlier this year my computer played Roblox at a smooth 60fps on the highest settings. But half a year later, I have to set the graphics settings to ~2-4 for a stable 30-40fps. 😐

[@fruitysnacc]

@@VkngVd 😭yikes, haven’t had a game on my own computer run 60 frames, my own PHONE runs better than my tower

@@fruitysnacc I have a crappy phone for device equality. BTW, some people with old computers need mods to play Minecraft: Java Edition. *Literally modifying the game.*

[@JosamDX]

Trust me Lixian, like any other engine, it depends on your skills and creativity... So I if you ever make a game in Roblox, I am more than willing to play it lol Just make sure to document your experience like you always do, it's always entertaining! This video was really fun to watch!

[@immaperson321]

Lixian you should definitely try some roblox horror games, there are some REALLY good ones out there. Maybe you can do a playthrough of horror games with Markiplier lol, considering many of these allow multiplayer.

[@lukacunningham342]

I get the feeling the game developer is a big Lixian fan, so now he’s in fear that Lixian now seaks cold hard vengeance
