I already know I'm yelling into the void, but there's such an intense amount of slop being pushed.
+80% of games on the 'up-and-coming' are retentionless, literally one-time tech demos with zero monetization.
27.5k CCU on an AI-generated line game with 27% like-rate is crazy.

The biggest concern of AI to developers is not that we will be replaced but amount of people making things.
There's only so much possible winning concepts that can be executed at one time.
We don't talk enough about these unknown Chinese developers with billions of visits & a 90% win rate

i'm starting to think this whole crusade against roblox is a psyop.
it's like they're all reading from the same script. notice how they always use the term "pedophile playground" when referring to the site.
Roblox pushing R15 is good AS LONG as they add resources to make it easy to develop with it.
R6 (and Stud) is popular as it allows games to not look trash if they're simpler, not that R6 itself is superior.
ex. Simple pattern-based textures that fit simple builds w/ R15.
i've been pushing past my burnout for so long now i'm genuinely losing the will to get out of bed...
been almost 4 months of nonstop devving at this point, 6-8 + hours every day😭😭

Gamedev tip:
1. You're tired or burned out
2. Take a break
3. Exactly 3 seconds later new game idea comes to mind
4. "I'd love to work on it"
5. Realise you have free will
6. Start working on that new idea
7. Get it done in a week
8. Come back to the other game well rested
9. "Oh yeah I wanted to take a break, well, I'm not tired anymore so I'll keep working"
It's all in your head people. Anyway I got like 5 games coming up
(Yes I know step 7 sounds crazy but I believe in you)
1 year ago... don't give up on your dreams 🥲
Is it just me or do I feel like NOTHING I do every succeeds on Roblox?
I'm not here to prove that my failed games were good but, I can't even start to comprehend why I'm failing. I look at one game, replicate it, and it fails.
Then I see these verified devs releasing low effort games and getting like 1k+ CCU every time.
I'm lowkey starting to get to my tipping point, feels like everything I do fails and 95% of the time I don't even know why..
A big mistake people make doing commissions❌:
They pick a price they aren’t happy with to avoid rejection. Afterward, they work with little optimism or efficiency.
Any serious dev prefers higher costs over a slow, time-waster.
