This is such a overlooked thing: You don't need insanely neat code or OOP. If you are only working on the game, why spend hours trying to make it neat. Make it functional. Players don't see your code. Why stress yourself out with more work?
Crypticinvest@Crypticinvest1

Some Roblox devs spend more time organizing their code than getting players. Clean code doesn’t matter if no one’s playing your game. Players never see your file structure. Disregard this if you are making a big game or template!

General rule of thumb: - Under 50th percentile, don't give up straight away. See what went wrong, then IMPROVE!! it. Also, with the new ad, it learns your audience. The first day or so may be inaccurate to your actual audience, so give it some time =)
Tizzy@TizzzyRBLX

Most devs give up on their game too early. I was told that if D1 is way below benchmark (3%) to stop working on the game. A month later, our D1 is at 7% on average. Don’t listen to others. Follow your gut.

Many people kept complaining about child safety issues. This will help most of it. Condo's can't be profitable anymore because roblox takes them down too frequently and spending 1$ each account severely adds friction to it. (3/3)

On top of that, if you're serious about developing, you need to get used to spending money. Spending 1$ (or ID verification) to use: - Server hosting - Datastores - + Much more Isn't that bad. I understand for kids it can be bad or people from 3rd world countries, but: (2/3)

Side note: advanced stuff being things that are really physics intensive, story games etc. Side note 2: I get sick really often (I am getting this checked out). This can help me speed up when I need to cover my slack! Have a good day and don't crucify me for this!

It's a great TOOL but not a replacement. In my opinion, you'll fall behind if you don't use it. I think that scripters with a Claude AI subscription could genuinely be lethal. Scripters are now quick & Claude produces good code. We still need scripters for the advanced stuff!

People have asked my experience/take on AI so here it is: - It's a great tool. I'm currently using Claude and even the Haiku 4.5 model is really good. Can't wait to try Opus 4.6 when I decide to pay for it! - It's much easier to setup then you expect. Took me 2 minutes. (1/4)

Bet you didn't know this! You can put "and" "or" into the search bar to fine-tune the parameters of your search result. In this case, I searched for an Instance called "MainUI" and it's parent meaning "NameTag" This is a minor feature but has saved me quite alot of time!

"I'd rather have a smaller pile of gold that I can sleep next to, than a mountain of gold that keeps me up at night wondering if it was worth sacrificing my morals." This is my own saying that I've lived by; will continue to live by, and will allow my Studio to live by it too.
