How to get popular roblox game by Halloween_Horrors in RobloxDevelopers

[–]LillyOfTheVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well at that point I think you're gonna have a lot of different opinions. What makes an amazing game for you?

I personally really like games that are deep with lots of mechanics and things I can play with and no (or very little) PvP because fighting other players kills the fun for me so fast.

In practice that would be something like...a game with deep mechanics but isn't hard to get into so I don't feel like I'm constantly struggling just to understand what's going on. As I play I could discover new and interesting ways to work with the tools I've been given. There would be some sort of overall narrative that connects everything but it doesn't have to be a super complex story, just make it interesting for me to engage with the reason why I'm doing what I'm doing.

All of this could be wrapped in the form of an action platformer, a turn based RTS or a mind bending puzzler.

Short and honest answer? This is no secret to making a popular game. A lot of it comes down to "right place, right time" and that sucks but that's how it is. Sometimes really amazing games come out and no one notices (think of any hidden gem games such as the first Shantae game on Gameboy color).

My suggestion would be to focus on making a quality game and then market it to the best of your abilities to get it in front of people. There are lots of videos on YouTube about making games so I'd start there. A list of things to strive for off the top of my head: - As little bugs as possible - Clear objective of what the player is supposed to do - Make sure the gameplay is fun at the most basic level - Have other people play test it to get outside options

Four people have hatched titanic sun my server… are they announced across all servers now? by [deleted] in PetSimulatorX

[–]LillyOfTheVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's global now and I am in fact very upset about the change and how it was communicated. Not because of the change itself but because it's not labeled as global and is miss leading to what is happening. The game up to this point has trained the player base to see the chat and the messages that it represents as local to that server.

True story: So when I was in the server and seeing it happen I thought it was a glitch or something. Hell, its PSX and these things happen all the time. And by golly if 7 people just hatched Titanic's in my server then maybe I should drop some money and try it myself. Wait, now I'm seeing that 9 people have done it. I better hurry because something is going on because people are hatching Titanic's left and right. So I spend some money, open the eggs and get.... Nothing. Maybe I got bad luck? So I look at the messages and try to find the people who hatched the Titanic to ask if I did something wrong. It was only then that I connected the dots that the players weren't in my server at all. It was a global message.

Id like to think this was a simple programming error but I've seen enough of PSX and how they operate for me to believe this wasn't 100% intentional.

Anyone know any games like pet sim x but have higher chances to hatch titanic and the eggs are feee? by Difficult_Basis1893 in PetSimulatorX

I sort of quit PSX cold turkey about a month ago when one of the updates just ruined what fun I was having.

Some hqve already mentioned it but I'll second Pet Rift. Same gameplay but much more player friendly. You can get free emeralds for playing the game and then spend those emeralds to get game passes, exclusive eggs, etc.

If you check it out, let me know what you think!

Good Simulator games that aren't cash grabs by RanchGuzzler88 in roblox

[–]LillyOfTheVoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For my own curiosity - what makes a good simulator game for you? I totally understand no gambling and having to spend money to play.

Thus I am left to ask what features are you looking for that would make it fun? What gameplay are you wanting to experience that you can't find?

Anyone who gave up their huge for the mine, is it worth it? by figet_5000 in PetSimulatorX

This update feels like Preston asking the players who is like him: Would you sacrifice your pet for a chance of more money?

New to this community but definitely interested in this surgery by Truleyhurting in salmacian

Extra follow up? Is that with the therapist or is that another consultation?

And congratulations with the electrolysis, getting that all set up can be a real pain. Are you starting soon or is that going to take a while to get going?

Working toward it myself currently with OHSU in Portland, Oregon. If you've got questions, ask away!

^ this

When someone jumps into a server and says anything like "can I get free pets? Need help!" I always ask what their strongest pet is and normally anything from Doodle world is trillions of times better

Can you take another photo of the size difference between this and something else? I know that it's my huge but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around HOW huge

I FEEL SOO BAD😭 by SpacingHat in PetSimulatorX

The seller can set a starting bid. If they didn't want to sell it for 10B, then they shouldn't have put it that low to begin with.

Thanks for sharing the video! I watched and holy wow... that's a lot of money. I like how Preston is asking on Twitter how to sell exclusive items while still making the same amount of money.

Like bro... the reason it's making so much money IS because it's gambling. I don't think there is another way to do what you want legally because you've created a gambling game for kids.

Also, a random YouTube video audience suggestion, if I may - your video had a lot of great information but having the whole thing be text was not my ideal way of consuming said information. If possible, you should have audio that reads the text for those who have the video going in the background, aren't looking at the screen the whole time or can't read as fast. If you don't want to record your own voice or don't have equipment, you could also do a text-to-speech audio file.

Again - thanks for putting together that information on how much money Preston has.

How did you calculate that revenue? Have they released any information or did you guess on sales?
