Anyone here do this? Seems pretty niche imo and it looks like it’s easy to just make some low IQ Roblox game kids would play. And u don’t even need coding experience to just vibe code it with AI. NGL I’m gonna try it.

Roblox already gives u assets and its art style is pretty fucking basic looking :lul:. There’s a millionaire who’s still making revenue cuz he just made some basic ah hide and seek game :lul:

Not really. You need to invest a bunch into it. Like tens/hundreds of thousands of Robux in ads. Can also contact YouTubers like flamingo to play your game for a video if it's actually original

"Niche" lol. It's basically gambling that you'll make the next autistic child hyperfixation that'll be trending for a few months.

As a 17yo game dev, I can say this works only if you have experience developing games. With today's AI tools it's much easier to create games and requires less skill & experience than a couple of years ago.

It used to make 40$+ a day

1776693937857


As of today, it makes around 40-50$ a month

1776693736417


Considering this game has not been updated in well over a year, its an okay side income. If you fully focus on game development, you can easily achieve numbers such as 100$ a day

you can definitely make money on roblox if your game is actually good and you have a budget for ads, i used to make games on roblox years ago, made a couple thousand bucks (2022 tapping sim era). if you monetize your game well and have good ui/ux roblox is free $

back in quarantine i was 10 and got super into making roblox games and scripting and with my other 10 yr old friend we made basically a copy and paste of break in but with a different theme. didnt make any real money but actually having robux was nice. theres definitely money in it especially if you advertise, premium payouts are the only thing that make it viable

i tried it with my hb, took forever to learn just for like 50 players, maybe if you have an amazing concept but most of those copy and paste games dont do very well ( but the few that work do amazing obviously )

have you seen the new updates?

the website its turning to shit chat is completely useless and sometime this or next month they're paywalling roblox development so you have to spend 5.99 every month just to publish and keep up a roblox game that has a slim chance of succeeding, i think it's time to switch to other platforms they're already scamming the shit out their developers with the shitty devex rates i promise it's not worth it especially right now but if you're committed to it despite everything maybe it'll be easier since it's also getting rid of a lot of competition

(if you don't pay for the new roblox+ the only people who can play your games are 18+ id verified users who aren't giving you shit the target demographic is retarded children who will buy anything)

Had a guy in my college class who was working on games like blade ball and fisch or some other games with millions of players. He was on like 55k usd yearly at 17 and driving around in a bmw truck too bad he was a mltn.

Definitely worth looking into if your dedicated enough.

what if someone stole your idea?

A lot of Roblox games are prob just stolen ideas :lul:

Roblox is literally just tiktok but instead of videos it’s games for kids
 
Been thinking about this after seeing these low-effort tsunami games have like a million players. Definitely worth trying, it's like yt short but you actually make money if you hit jackpot

It's hard and easy to learn, the tools are relatively easy to use, but 99% of the learning tools are complete dogshit, i had an easier time learning multiple variable calculus, which is a relatively hard concept but good learning tools, than learning the ins&outs of the roblox studio workflow and shit. AI is lowkey a good send for learning this bs

I gave it a try. Bro Claude can carry this shit hard. And u can just ask Claude why buttons to click in the studio if u wanna achieve specific task.

Ngl if u have patience and a solid idea (or just copy another game jfl), it has potential

Roblox is like the most popular game, their game design can’t be niche anymore

Find an upcoming game perhaps or if you’re a streamer/ content creator it helps
 
Fucked up platform i've been playing it for 9 years

You can make a low effort brainrot game that has similar features as the other brainrot games(not the exact one will get deleted) take risk and advertise it for 3k robux or smth tiktok nd other apps too you'll most likely to get 10k+ active avg or 0 active based on luck

Or u can make a game, work on it for years apply the best graphics nd get guarenteed 100 active players a day:feelswah:

make a decent game and not an easy ahh brainrot thing, many had this idea after the boom of goofy easy games so now roblox is basically flodded with this stuff
 
Unfortunately not so easy, my brother's been doing that for 11 years and from what i see there's a lot of marketing technique's required, and even so it's still not guaranteed to succeed even if you get a very good marketer, In the end he almost always has to sell the game to some other people to still make some profit out of it. Tho i do know someone that does comissions rather than work on his own projects and he makes like 11K a month and he's 17 so yeah that's way better but he's an experienced modeler.
