@Reditect @ToDeforNotToDef It's probably indie. Does it matter?

Paper roll animation for Card Select UI.
Is this overkill for a solo dev on no budget?

@MrChickenRocket @ToDeforNotToDef do people say "indy"?
I've seen some saying it before than "indie" but very rarely
English
@ToDeforNotToDef What's the point of making indy games if you can't be a little self-indulgent?
English
@johnciancutti as Roblox’s first Chief Growth Officer (CGO), what are your thoughts on Filters & Tags within discovery systems?
The Roblox developer community has asked for this feature for about a decade, yet it gets sidelined. You're going into earned distrust toward Roblox.

@Simbuilder @raekaro Roblox devs at large use Blender, not in-studio modeling techniques
Programming in studio has various topics that directly translate. for loops, lists, the idea of threads, I mean even if-statements and variables.
Skills arent 1:1, but many topics do translate, i'd argue most
English
@raekaro Roblox 3D Modeling ~= CAD
SFX maybe
Programming in Luau is not programming in the real world.
Marketing is not a skill.
English
Unpopular Opinion: Roblox does not give you real life skills, it gives you skills only used on Roblox.

@PE_Spathi Or there's drama or an owner turns out to be not that great to put it lightly
English
I've basically opted out of being part of most developer related Discords.
Never fails, every single time you get a bunch of developers together, it just turns into an ego fest. Rather stay in my own corner and ignore other developers unless they prove they're decent people.
English
@sensational965 @ToysForBob cause I love 3d platformers and the more indie to AA scene. That mix of stability and creative control at a mid-size studio.

Hey game devs, i wanna know if you could work with your dream mentor or studio, Who would it be and why?

@SeriumGamer To me, Kreek has been tired of the platform trajectory for a while now.
His videos are evidence of that; he's been vocally negative; it's what some dislike about him. But also Roblox's decisions have been negative, so I don't blame him.
He's expressed thoughts on leaving before
English
Even KreekCraft is tired of the constant negative changes coming from Roblox.
When top creators start considering leaving, it says a lot.
Is Roblox hurting its own platform?
KreekCraft@KreekCraft
I'm tired. The past year of constant negativity from Roblox and everything surrounding it has taken a huge toll on me mentally. It feels like every other week Roblox is shooting themselves in the foot and getting further and further away from the game I fell in love with 10 years ago. Roblox is basically my job, and it’s the box I’ve put myself in content wise, but I’ve started having conversations with my team about what the future looks like. I’m seriously considering making a big push into GTA 6 content when it drops, and potentially using it as an off-ramp into more mature content.
English
@Lovespunn So much for Roblox "taking the long view"😅
No but really, not recognizing the platform you love hurts and I hate it.
English
There is a point where I think we all feel this platform has “innovated” enough.
Can we please get 6 months to a year to catch up with the “innovations” and updates?
This is going too fast.
And to be REAL. Can we be heard?
I don’t even know what this platform is anymore….

@iGottic_Real The big part of Pls Donate though was putting people in a server that wanted robux and people who had robux. Not only providing a place for two people who know each other.
English
I find it hilarious that people are freaking out about Pls Donate going away as if the gamepass method is going away... but it's not.
You never needed a middleman game to buy a gamepass or t-shirt, you can buy it from somebody directly.

Roblox will no longer allow games to sell gamepasses from other games starting from May 29th. As a mandatory replacement, Roblox is introducing the Transfers API. You must be age-checked or have a linked parental account to either receive or send Robux. Any Robux will immediately be received upon you accepting the Robux. You will receive 90% of the Robux, instead of the previous 60%; however, 10% still goes to the game's creator. To send Robux, you must be subscribed to Roblox Plus. Roblox currently only allows a 1,000 Robux maximum to be sent per month. You will not be able to cancel any transfer. Additionally, you can transfer Robux on the "Buy Robux" page or by donating it to a user's page. If you are under the age of 18, your parent must approve each transfer request. Any request not accepted within a week will be sent back to the person who initially sent it. Any Robux earned from transfers are not DevEx-able.

@TheNexusAvenger Love that you're documenting stuff.
To throw in my own note, for the Creator Rewards (June 24th 2025), it caused me to remove a planned world in my game for Premium-only players. A previous intended selling point. Image from my game update log: devforum.roblox.com/t/pb-the-flyin…

"Transparency" once again, but this time, instead of ending a few servers, this is ending an entire genre. Lovely.
This isn't ending any time soon, is it...
Let's see how many edits my article gets by RDC.

Roblox is removing cross-game gamepass sales and forcing a $5/month requirement just to donate, with a 1,000 Robux monthly limit. This will kill PLS DONATE. PLS DONATE is built around cross-game gamepass sales, a system that’s free for players and has no limits. Removing it doesn’t just change things, it kills the game completely. I wasn’t made aware of this change before it was announced. No warning, no chance to give my input or feedback before they announce this change. I’ve been developing on this platform since I was 12 and have always loved making games on Roblox, so seeing something this impactful happen overnight without real consideration is genuinely upsetting. This means a lot to me and I’m really sad about this. The solution Roblox gave us is the Transfer API, which really isn’t a solution and still affects us heavily. It’s locked behind a $5/month subscription, capped at 1,000 Robux per month, and under-18 users require parental approval for EVERY SINGLE transaction. That completely changes the experience. If transferring Robux is going to be paid, gamepasses need to coexist. Removing them ruins everything and doesn’t stop bad actors from just purchasing through the site anyway. It doesn’t make sense. I really don’t want to build hatred toward this platform. I love Roblox and still believe in it, and if it truly cares about its developers, I’m sure there are better solutions that keep users safe without killing our game. @Roblox @DavidBaszucki

@AppleSeedGames I think to the side of the player is best for seeing it
English
Need some feedback-
For the punch charge-up bar, would you prefer UI in the world in front of the player, or UI in screenspace beside the player?

@Onogork If you can make the multiplayer or social aspect enough to be sustainable on Roblox, it'd be cool to see.
A match 3 game on Roblox. Maybe there's already a popular one?
I made one years ago but it had a lot of bugs. +Lots of 2d art which isn't my jam. I yap; good luck! :)

@iGottic_Real i don't see Roblox banning custom characters, but if they do, i'm more gone than i already am. i haven't updated my game in 3-4 months.

Roblox is trying to make R6 less popular again to eventully remove it, who could've thought that Roblox Corporation could lie??!
*taps the sign*

Starting June 8, 2026, Roblox will be increasing the DevEx rate by 42% for eligible games that have players over 18 years old spending Robux. To be eligible, games should use R15 avatars. Full details: devforum.roblox.com/t/4607091

@Aysome122 @NarrowRaven probably yeah, but an option still would be nice

SOTM VR also takes away the whole animation for entering and exiting a Springlock suit and mechanic of pressing the button or twisting the tie, and they don't even sit in a opened form after you have already been inside of the suit so they just sit their normal state.
