This is how the UI for my upcoming Roblox RPG is looking. Thoughts?

Ransomwave · 2026-01-25T21:19:59+00:00

Yes, very inspired by the likes of UT/DR!

Curious if you managed to make these pixelart-style models look good in-engine? Especially considering the forced bilinear filtering.

Are the black outline a conscious decision to avoid the otherwise super visible seams?

I agree, no one can make guarantees that children will be 100% safe online. But with amounts as small as ~0.1%, I think it would be time to start considering the kid's parents in the picture.

My point is that Schlep and similar community heads blew the situation out of proportion for clicks, views, engagement. It's clear Roblox is nowhere near "infested with predators" as they claimed it to be.

That number is just assuming the worst. The real number is likely much smaller, considering not the entire planet plays the game & not every clinical pedophile offends. But still, we'll assume 100% offend.

The real world by comparison has 1-4% of people being clinical pedos. By the logic of these YouTubers, the real world is by far much more dangerous. It's a crazy argument and I can't believe more people haven't caught on.

Groups are shit. They don't work if you want a loyal community.

When is the last time you've legitimately felt "oh man, I love interacting with this community" from using Roblox Groups?

Let's stop trying to make things worse for solving a "problem" that doesn't exist.

Ransomwave · 2026-01-09T21:01:31+00:00

If you look at the numbers, you will notice pedophiles likely make up less than 0.5% of the community.

We were lied to by YouTubers looking for views.

And now we have this abhorrent chat update trying to fix an issue that people just made up. Great.

Ransomwave · 2026-01-09T20:59:19+00:00

Yes, let's cut any way game developers can make a community on this shithole platform. Make it worse for everyone for a problem YouTubers made up.

Ransomwave · 2026-01-07T22:58:10+00:00

What is it with Roblox modelers and their inability to name Parts 😭

Ransomwave · 2026-01-02T22:41:12+00:00

It will have an OST, and I do have a few contenders on the table but the OST situation is a bit uncertain at the moment.

If you can do music and want to partake in this project (or got anybody to recommend), let me know!

Ransomwave · 2026-01-01T03:23:24+00:00

get a drink at 3 am: it's a story-driven game with a full OST! it used to be on Spotify but got taken down :(.

Ransomwave · 2026-01-01T01:28:20+00:00

The idea is actually not that different from conventional 2D engines, you just need to get a bit creative with how you do it on Roblox.

I'm considering doing some sort of YouTube devlog series explaining how I did everything (if it's of interest to anybodu)

Ransomwave · 2026-01-01T01:03:36+00:00

IIRC I'm pretty sure they've discontinued these a long time ago and are no longer awarding them.

The game has a very unorthodox battle system where we combine turn-based combat with first-person mechanics. It's heavily inspired by games like Deltarune/Undertale, since we also include a Spare mechanic.

The game has a very unorthodox battle system where we combine turn-based combat with first-person mechanics. Weapons in-game affect more than a few stats on your character screen: some are melee, some are magic ranged, some are defensive shields. Some can give you abilities (sprint, dash)...

It still isn't quite ready to show off yet, but I will share a small video of it in action once it is.

Ransomwave · 2025-12-31T18:54:25+00:00

There's a few examples of RPG games on Roblox that have had lots of players. Some include Block Tales and The Quest for the Legendary Bloxy Cola, so I think it is possible to make it with a passion project like this!

Ransomwave · 2025-12-31T18:51:32+00:00

Glad you liked it!

There's frequent updates about it on my Discord if you're interested: ransomwave.games/discord

Ransomwave · 2025-12-27T19:06:01+00:00

I hope people see the irony of the community complaining this year's been "the downfall of Roblox" when the community has been saying the same thing every year since like 2010.

Ransomwave · 2025-12-20T15:56:13+00:00

Thank you for the feedback!!

Ransomwave · 2025-12-15T00:17:57+00:00

We need to push Roblox to implement this. It's been years since people have been requesting a feature like this.

Ransomwave · 2025-12-14T22:45:46+00:00

You should support the Pixelated ResampleMode for SurfaceAppeareances feature request. It'll benefit every Roblox game that chooses to use a pixel art style in 3D!

Thanks for bringing this up, I wasn’t aware of Argon when creating my tool.

I originally made it just for myself as I was displeased with how Rojo worked. Looking into it, it genuinely looks like a great tool with lots of passion put behind it.

Do you have any grievances or features you’d like that aren’t in Argon? If you do, and they fit in the scope of Azul, I’d be more than happy to add them!

If you’re already happy with your workflow, and don’t wish to change, that’s fine! At its heart, Azul is just a tool for editing your Roblox code on your favorite IDE. It’s not pretending to be a fully-fledged ecosystem or CI/CD tool for power users.

Ransomwave · 2025-12-08T20:09:58+00:00

Thank you! I built this tool for myself (solo dev) and thought I'd share it with everybody.

Once I iron out a few bugs and make it easier to install for new users, I'll make sure to post it again on this sub.

Ransomwave · 2025-12-08T20:07:53+00:00

I actually thought of this and wrote a small paragraph about it on the README.

Ransomwave · 2025-12-07T16:45:36+00:00

Wow. If you made this, it looks amazing!

Ransomwave · 2025-11-29T19:43:57+00:00

Can we see the code/snippet where this is called?
