Developer Awards! Phase 2: Virtual Items

Oooooh, I got it so I will get my Golden Crown in around 2 months. So it’s automatic.

Not really. If you haven’t got it already, then you probably won’t get it any time soon. The system is both automatic and manual.

The system automatically gives it to you if:

  • You are the owner of the game
    • The game is under your account. Studio access does not count.
    • The game is under a group and you are the owner of that group. Studio access does not count.

The rest is manual. If the owner filled out the form, then you have to wait for Roblox staff to review it. The forms are currently suspended, so they won’t get reviewed any time soon.

I have other requirements for automatic I just don’t have the group requirement is it automatic for me?

The other requirement is that you own the game (listed under your account). If the game is truly listed under your account and you qualify for automatic reward, then you should already have gotten the crown. If you haven’t and you own the game (it says that the creator is you), then your game does not qualify for the award. (Remember that visits does not equal MAU)

Still haven’t gotten Gold through Black Iron… sobbing…

You should note that experiences that qualified after March 2021 may be eligible but did not receive a crown because Roblox suspended the program.

Are developers still rewarded with these crowns as they hit the milestones, or was this a one-time event?

Unfortunately, like @green271 had just said… (Sorry for the ping), the program has been suspended so the crowns are currently not being given to anybody, if they do then there’s gonna be an announcement saying it, as it was taken down from heavy amounts of people lying just to get it, and a bit more problems.

They should at least give the crowns to the owners of the games. It’s been 7 months; I’m still waiting on my bombastic crown.

EDIT: I now qualify for Audrite, it’s been 8 months

I have 1.2K MAU+ but haven’t received no crowns and I’ve been waiting a while but still no crowns. This upsets me.

Hopefully they’ll begin rolling them out again at some point. I ended up getting my Bombastic Crown a week or so after Gold, and then same again for my Adurite, oddly some of my friends who have 1k+ MAU never recieved any crowns even when they WERE being given out.

I do not want to sound pessimistic and such, but I do not think Roblox will roll them out anytime soon. Just look at the DevForum. We haven’t had promotions for over a year and no way to report bugs or feature reports. Roblox, as far as I am aware, has invested their time somewhere else and probably won’t be coming back to this anytime soon.

You make a good point, seems they’re investing a lot of time in new studio features which I have no complaints about. Maybe some other day

I have a question, can you still get this?

1 Like

Nope. As mentioned above, they have suspended the process and I don’t think they’ll be resuming it any time soon.

My game reached the goal and I’m the owner of it, I am not receiving the crowns even though the email says the owner will get it :pensive:

I kind of expected that people not getting the crowns would of been fixed by now. People like myself have reported this back in May or so (and still haven’t got it, and likely never will due to changes made to the requirements in the Summer/Autumn):

And yet, I still see many people complaining here about not getting it (and they met the requirements).

When will this be fixed, and when is it likely to be seeing the solution to people cheating to get the crowns? Roblox’s only solution is a manual approval system, you can’t do automatic due to cheating (or if you were doing it Studio access only, not all developers of a game always have Studio access).

edit: the solution is pretty flawed anyways, people are still able to cheat through botting/advertising their game etc
