About Us
Hello - I am AnthonyJAbbott, owner of AU | Australia (AU | Australia - Roblox).
We’re a roleplay simulation in a community known as ‘Ro-Nations’. We have a functioning government that is democratically elected, with a functioning parliament, police force, security service, defence force, media sector, judicial system, private sector and thriving community. To expand our horizons, we are seeking new, energetic and experienced developers to join our ranks. Our main game, Sydney, currently receives about 4000-6000 players a month, which is exponential within our community.

@Blue_Heelers - Builder/Emergency Service Vehicles
@PompeyMorrison - Tools, Builder, Military Equipment/Vehicles
@RicardoPinochet - Aesthetics

Sydney is largely a complete game. It has some minor bugs, but generally it is functional. However, we are planning to overhaul it or continue our work on an outback town in Australia which will be fully role-play oriented.

About The Job
We are looking for various developers who are interested in joining a great community and working collaboratively to advance Australia, as a group, and to join in with the fun along the way.
Over the next few months, with Australians heading on school break, we are going to begin working on either overhauling Sydney or starting an entirely new project. Work that builders are usually tasked with are:
- Building realistic structures in line with Google Maps or pictures provided, with a modern theme. Australian cities IRL have a lot of Victorian architecture too, so we do have a variety of styles in our games.
- Building shop interiors to the specifications of businesses which have purchased land in Sydney from the Federal Treasury.
- Keeping buildings relatively detailed and realistic, but placing more emphasis on lag mitigation rather than showcasing detail.
Programmers would be given various tasks aimed at encouraging roleplay, such tasks we have in mind are:
- In-game roleplay animations
- Working mobile phone which can communicate with emergency services, other players
- An arrest/citation criminal database
- Enhanced criminal activity/missions
- In-game vitals (health, hunger, thirst)
- Customisation of cars (paint colour, accessories)
- Bug fixes
and so much more that I could not possibly list here, we have so many ideas to take our group forward!
3D modellers would be tasked with:
- Creating vehicles that are common in Australia, such as: Holden Commodore VE, Ford Falcon XR6, Ford Territory, Mitsubishi Magma, and much more.
- Keeping the triangle count relatively low. Usually, when a server is up running in Sydney, there can be 15+ cars moving about in game and this has been known to cause a bit of lag (hence why we want to overhaul the cars).
Side note: We are also considering CSG vehicles if they suit our standards, feel free to send us examples!
Payment
Sydney currently generates a modest amount of ROBUX every month, peaking at about 30,000 in October (in line with a wave of updates we integrated, thus encouraging activity) which is much higher than our humble beginnings. It is earned through, largely, Developer Products which convert Robux into in-game Australian Dollars. Additionally, gamepasses and property purchasing inside of Sydney generates excess revenue.
As such, we are able to pay around 1000R$ - 5000R$ a month for developers who are interested via Group Payout (so no affect with tax), with lots of potential to increase as revenue increases and our group grows.
