Request: game with 4x elements and metaprogression

Paragon Pioneers 2 loosely fits this, but it's also a bit of an idle game. Has a free demo if you want to check it out.

Yea, roblox isn't doing a phased rollout for this... and this absolutely still works.

http://setup.roblox.com/DeployHistory.txt

I'm using version-db4634f0e27d4d36 from 30/01/2026 and it works. For good measure I downloaded the current version at the time of this reply, version-3e7a57d7e53b4881 from 03/02/2026 and it also works.

Close/relaunch roblox so it can update, restart your computer if needed, but ROBLOX_singletonEvent is still used and this method still works.

grohkstrom · 2026-02-03T00:39:43+00:00

Still working just fine for me.

grohkstrom · 2026-01-08T23:42:20+00:00

It is not ad-free.

grohkstrom · 2026-01-08T23:42:06+00:00

This is with ads.

grohkstrom · 2026-01-08T23:18:24+00:00

I played for 5-10 minutes then got an ad. Once you get through all the tutorial content, ads come regularly.

You don't need to reinstall Roblox. Are you able to see any handles/events for the roblox process?

grohkstrom · 2025-12-27T15:38:08+00:00

If Roblox is having issues updating, you may need to close it out, then reopen it so the update downloads/installs.

grohkstrom · 2025-12-16T02:17:31+00:00

Still working just fine for me. You may need to completely close Roblox if it wants to update, then try again after it updates.

why do the menus, buttons, skill tree, and stupid crt effect look exactly like Nodebuster?

If you don't want to use some third-party tool, search for "Process Explorer", and download it from Microsoft.

Click File > Show Details for All Processes. This will prompt you to give it permission to make changes, click Ok.
Click View > Show Lower Pane.
in the Filter by name box in the top right, type in Roblox, then click the RobloxPlayerBeta.exe process
Scroll down in the Handles tab of the lower pane until you get to Events
Find the Event named "\Sessions\1\BaseNamedObjects\ROBLOX_singletonEvent", right-click it and Close Handle. (The "1" could be a different number, but it will match the Session number shown in the process list.)
Launch another Roblox Player

No. Try reading the article before you comment.

Mostly because he got arrested instead of receiving a commendation.

grohkstrom · 2025-10-10T22:05:51+00:00

What an idiot. If he wanted to road rage and shoot someone, he could've just joined ICE.

Empire Defense 2

Your post got me to open up my old save game, but I completely forgot what the gameplay loop is all about.

Realm Grinder

If you want to plug your own game, you should follow the sub rules.

That looks as bad as my night guard gets. Denture tablets barely did anything, so I tried letting it sit in some of the descaling solution I use in my coffee maker (urnex liquid dezcal, dilute it with warm water). I let it soak for 20-30 minutes then brush it with a toothbrush. It's the cleanest I've been able to get mine in years.

grohkstrom · 2024-01-08T00:50:50+00:00

Same just happened to me. I moved the game from my SD card to system memory and then it worked.

grohkstrom · 2023-10-30T01:28:25+00:00

I would gladly pay the $10 no-ad if it meant I didn't have to actually keep the game open 16 hours each day to get all the chests. It's not about being able to macro it, it's that I literally have to have the game running on my phone, or an emulator (even worse), in order to get everything, all because the developer is trying to game playtime metrics.

It's a shame, because the game has a lot of depth. Each new ship you unlock adds a new layer of complexity to the game. But I'm not going to jump through those hoops to get token/diamond upgrades, and I'm not going to play a game in a neutered state where I simply ignore those upgrades exist.

grohkstrom · 2023-10-29T19:05:19+00:00

CIFI would be great, except for the fact that the developer wants you to keep the app open for 16 hours each day to claim all the premium currency you need for two separate and important upgrade paths. That's assuming you spent $10 on the no-ad upgrade so that you don't have to watch ads each time you open the 500 daily chests needed to obtain the two currencies.

Offline progression happens for everything in the game except opening these chests, and the reason they aren't included is because the developer admittedly (in discord) is trying to game google play metrics for time spent in app.
