Pretty sure @tkelce has skillz beyond football - including possibly doing some gardening with @jandelRblx before he hits the field for preseason... roblox.com/games/12688469…

Crazy how one team filled with passion and determination has taken me this far in 2 years. The amount of opportunities and records we broke together. Really brought my roblox dreams to life. @jandelRblx @ZombieHours

Grow a Garden budget: ~100-400k est.
All the games on the right combined budget: ~200M
That's the real story here.

Grow a Garden on @Roblox today hit a Player Count Record larger than the Top 5 @Steam game records combined. That's right, just one game.

👇 Here is the genius behind Grow a Garden.
Game not for you? Not every game is for me either - but you cannot ignore the carefully chosen game mechanics at work here. 👇
And although the first point is obvious, the rest are not so. Read the full post.
🪴 First, your garden progresses offline. Even first time players who don't like the game might just return to see where their starter garden has grown.
🪴 They didn't limit the game to gardens, they added pets that work offline too. You don't have to be tied down to your game's name. This adds a "cute" factor to the game, important for some audiences!
🪴 The game feels like Roblox. It's not something made in a lab by a large studio. You instantly know it's Roblox. This is important!
🪴 It's not just offline trickery. Although your save progresses while away, it pays better to be online too.
🪴 Get this. You've heard of cycling shop items daily or weekly? Their shop cycles every 5 minutes! Players think: I could leave, but what if I miss out on the next 5 minute drop?
🪴 Servers are SYNCED! A thunderstorm in your server? There's a thunderstorm in every server! These storms are rare and provide benefits to your garden too.
🪴 It's not just thunderstorms, there are other synced behaviors across servers that are critical to retaining players. All of these events keep you online to catch them.
🪴 This is already great great great game design... but what if you also dropped live content, with cinematic cutscenes, on Saturdays with a countdown timer? This gets your whole audience on at once.
🪴 Live updates have one more advantage here: The sooner you grab your seed, the sooner it can grow offline.
I only wrote all this because every game I see make a splash on Roblox, I also see ridicule for what they "deserve" - as if games should be judged by some emperor giving his approval or disapproval.
It's deeper than that.
Understanding these design choices will help you make the next big game on Roblox of your liking!
You don't achieve these record breaking numbers with bots. If that were true, everyone would game their numbers to 5M+ CCU.
Grow a Garden and others have proven Roblox is the future. This single game has more players online this morning than half of Steam as a platform! All boats on Roblox rise with games making splashes like these.
What are you waiting for? Get to it, Roblox Dev! 🔥
