A Fan Asked Me Why His Game Is Failing...

[@ricksa21_]

I'm currently writing your tips and points you're telling in the video thank you!

[@SmartyRBX]

Fantastic!

[@staminer7079]

Hey SmartyRBX, I really appreciate you reviewing my game Word Boat, It's a game I am really passionate about and I've been spending the past few months on it. The points you made in the video is something I will try my best to fix and I'll definitely send you updates!

[@CaptainTails00000]

I would say “Don’t use AI images at all” because not only does it look bad and it steals other people’s art and should only be used as a concept and not a final product, it’s also kinda misleading on advertising and gives false expectations. Learn to draw or hire an artist. Also doesn’t help that the player base has short attention span thanks to Social Media platforms like TikTok. If anything, we should give a reward for not skipping cutscenes at all in a story game. Not only would they get to appreciate the hard work and effort put into the game and its storytelling, they also get something in return for doing so… You’ll also make more money from Premium player’s playtime.

[@SmartyRBX]

I understand your perspective, and I respect that. However, here we have small devs, and AI is one of the biggest opportunities to help them in their already extremely limited resources. AI advancement cannot be stopped, and it is best to use it. Once you use AI to make your games, and earn robux, you can pay artists later. They don't have the funds yet, but with the efficiency and help of AI, they have a much better chance to make successful projects quicker.

[@CaptainTails00000]

@@SmartyRBXI get that not everyone has the right art tools and such to create a image, thumbnail or icon for their game. However, there needs to be some regulations on how AI can be used so it doesn’t harm jobs and/or artistic talents.

[@nineret]

why use ai art when you can just take screenshot and make thumbnail? I ain't playing "game" with a ai art thumbnail at all it look lazy.

[@mohamedisthebeste]

i love how he has segues going from roblox to psychology and human anatomy

[@CarboardBoxx]

Lets be honest, make the game super good, title good, and ads help also

[@aeea3306]

Maybe burning trees ismt really the best concept for a game...

[@monkeynaders]

The burning simulator is an uncooylocked game

[@AlexDevRBX]

Im also using the destruction part of roblox in my game. Its gonna be about smashing boxes sorta likd unboxing sim

[@Relatune]

was on the yt homepage at the perfect time

[@TheInfamousKenny]

13:26 I just went ahead and tested this game for myself, and I have to say it really does need some work. Firstly, I would make the parts local so that they are client-sided instead of global. This will not only reduce lag but cut out the potential for people with auto clickers to come in and troll by spawning lots of parts everywhere, making it too laggy for players to play the game. Secondly, I would add an anti auto-clicker script into ServerScriptService so players cannot just auto click a bunch of parts and make a huge pile, making the game far too easy to win. Also, you are correct in anything that the parts should be anchored, because as I noticed, the wave spreads some of the blocks out, which means that in no time players are going to run out of space to place the blocks, making continuing to play pointless unless they have a private server that they can just leave and rejoin to reset everything. I think there should also be an automatic map cleanup after each round so players have an opportunity to create something brand new each time. One last thing, I noticed that there is a shop for part colours, this is really good as it gives players a choice of different colours, but if that were my game I would also make use of "math.random" for the part material. It would be really easy to implement, all you need is a line in the script that says "block.material = math.random". Overall I think it is a really good game but it does need some improvements, I also think the map should be bigger too if you want to fit a lot of players on it. Or implement a "map loading" system like I did with my test place and have random maps loaded from ServerStorage into Workspace, then the script just changes the map for each round. The game does kinda remind me of those "build to survive" games that used to be really popular way back when.

[@FlameAndSlime]

You should more of these game review types

[@suprisedbeeiscute]

Im following your advice for a long time. This is my alt account on KZbin. I am starting a channel which currently has 2k subscribers, I am learning scripting, building. It's funny how much my mindset changed... what else is funny is how I see people who didnt even start learning scripting plan a full on game that releases with no updates needed since its full of content DLCS... I'm dragging this on lol

[@SmartyRBX]

Amazing to hear! Sounds like you're doing some great work. I'd be interested to hear, how did your mindset change?

[@suprisedbeeiscute]

@@SmartyRBX If you actually wanna hear that: I was getting ideas over and over again. Realistic and possible ideas. I was expanding them for long until I realized... wait, I really can't make this. It was hard to start because it seemed like it would take years, but I thought "How am I going to do something for years if I can't do it for 1 day". Your tutorials and the Dev Forum helped a lot!

[@SmartyRBX]

@@suprisedbeeiscute Incredible, love to hear it. What vids from me helped you the most?

[@suprisedbeeiscute]

@@SmartyRBX Your scripting tutorials helped, but I also love seeing you use your knowledge practically in videos. I learned a lot that way too! I'm on vacation without my PC and now you made me want to mess around in Studio btw lol

hey there smarty I would really appreciate It if you make a tutorial on this! basically I have been scripting for a few years and I always come across one problem when making guns the bullets don't start from the handle using velocity sucks because getting the mouse position then sending it to the server causes delay I want to know how big paintball does it or jailbreak I don't want to use any modules I want to learn how to make it by my self and how it works!

[@JackFould]

W video, W channel!

[@randomhttyddev9245]

the reason why all these games failed is because they are simulators bruv

There's many simulators that succeed. I would like to see other game types however.

[@Gianlucca123]

i feel like the biggest thing you should promote to people is originality. half of the games shown are simulators and basic ones that are just like the millions of simulators that are in roblox. Same goes for anime games. there so many new high quality anime games and simulators that are made every day and they either die within a few weeks or die immediately because its such a saturated category

[@SmartyRBX]

I agree. Most people just don’t send original games! Hope as we get more we get better ones.

[@Gianlucca123]

@@SmartyRBX yea man it’s crazy. I got a question tho, I reached over 100 ideas in my notes, all Paragraphs long, of a bunch of different category of games like rpgs, open world games, horror, turn based ,action etc… and I have some planned to be implemented on Roblox but I’m someone who typically needs a physical person guiding them.
