it blows my mind roughly once a week that there is so much incredible work happening in the roblox community, there are hundreds of millions of players in that ecosystem, yet "regular" game devs and roblox devs seem to operate on completely different planes of existence

      @kchironis I tried to get into it a few months back but churned out quick. Pure curiosity, no sherpa. I figured I'd try extra hard to give it a shot since it's so popular. It was really punishing to go in that way since there isn't much of a FTUE and it's very open ended.

        @mfschweitzer @kchironis I've been enjoying @terrycavanagh's dive into roblox dev on his twitter account. In my own research, the successful games on Roblox seem like such total nonsense they make me question whether or not I actually know anything about game design.

          @mfschweitzer @kchironis @terrycavanagh AAA Studios like the ones we work at have too much pride to release a game on someone else's platform, though I do wonder if it's a reasonable business proposition to spin up an incubation team and release a game designed by us in that ecosystem.

          @IksarHS @kchironis @terrycavanagh Probably less a commentary on your game design knowledge and more on market and demographics.

            @mfschweitzer @kchironis @terrycavanagh is there a nice way of saying I'm old?
