Any ideas which would make an Obby game more outstanding?

So I and my Developer partner were thinking of creating an obby game after our previous game (Key Simulator) got unpopular which we don’t want to happen with this new game we started working on.
Since we don’t have a lot of original ideas we wanted to ask the developer community as well as the Player community that what would they want to see in an obby game, what would they prefer to have in it which would make it more outstanding than the other obby games out there.

The ideas we have gotten so far are:

  • -Leaderboards
    -Trails, auras, hats/halos
    -Coins
    -Levels (for level obbies)
    -Competitive leaderboards (Which reset every 1 week and all the players on it will have to go on a Competitive Obby and the player with the best time on it will get something rare and special, also all who are on the competitive leaderboard get something good.)
    -Timers
    -Crates (from which you can get trails, halos, other outfits)
    -2v2, 3v3, 4v4 Obby games
    -(Also trading crossed our mind)
    -Races which everyone can watch and bet coins
    -Another thing that crossed our minds is Skin colors (Only if this can be done): like you can get your whole skin, avatar like a rainbow color (which moves and floats) or blue which is kinda cool from my perspective.

Also, we want to make the game very competitive, hard. We want players to race on it.

We appreciate all comments, ideas and suggestions! Thank you for reading this and taking your time to suggest!

Adding badges after every 5 stages.
Players on Roblox mainly play obbys to increase their collection or count of player badges , they find it interesting collecting them and it makes them really involved especially in obby.

And secret badges to find by making secret areas in your obbys would also be good.

Add creative tools, like a grapple hook, anti gravity areas, and etc.

Some sort of a battle royale mode would be cool, where it’s a bunch of obbies consecutively. The last person to complete each one would get eliminated. Now, I personally wouldn’t know how to script this because my brain isn’t exactly the most knowledgeable. But hey! Just an idea

Don’t make it too obvious with so many different things. I would go for a simple look. Don’t add 20 different guis, and gamepasses. At that point the player will prob know your doing this for money.

No no no, we wont add anything which makes the game pay to win. Everything will be organized and f2p players will have the same gameplay as others. Also we will keep the UI and builds simple, the only thing we will add is more content
