Developers, please may you give me feedback on a game I have been working on?

Hello everyone! This is the first post I am creating on the Developer Forum :slight_smile: I have used the forum a lot every time I have stumbled upon a problem that I couldn’t fix using documentation and it seems like a really helpful and friendly place.

I am creating this post today because I am looking for some genuine insight on my game functionality from other developers as I want to improve it as much as I can to allow the gameplay to be the best it can be. My game is a DARK RP styled game that has contains a mixture of other game elements that I enjoy!

If you get some time please may you tell me what I can do to take it to the next level. (Looking for feedback)

You can find the game link here: Westshore City [Dark RP] - Roblox

Any feedback is appreciated (The game is only available on the PC platform and I intend on keeping it on PC only)

Thanks all :grinning:

this is just my live feedback as i play

[Intro Phase]
I think you should remove “basically” from this part of the intro, think it immediately sets the vibe of the game off a bit.

[Server Picking]
Everything on this looks amazing, audio fits well, i like the friends online server-list feature and how it tells you if servers are on or offline I think though instead of just a gray backround, you should do the following.

Remove the “Westshore Roleplay” logo at the top, resize the server list to be bigger, and make the gray backround to be gray with the logo tilted on it and replicated all throughout. (in black and white so it blends in with gray)
^ lmk if u want an exmaple image

[IN-GAME]
I have a very good computer, yet assets were still loading in even once the game was “done” loading, maybe you should add a quick loading screen until game:IsLoaded

Not sure if this is a UI error or if the text is supposed to be up here instead of centered on the screen.


I think you should drag it down to be center if not.

There is all this area in the food shack, It feels a little empty, i think you should add more tables.

I also think there should be a way to hide the UI’s on the side here.

[Overall]
The gameplay is really good and I believe this has a lot of potential with few modifications.

Nice work, man.

Your game is really good, especially for scripting it on your own.

Could you give me some lessons on better scripting?

Work put in the game is actually damn good and game has a big potential, I could actually imagine playing it with my friends and having fun. I like the implementation of low graphics mode, a life saver for low end pc’s. You can add a few things:

  • The city looks cool but maybe a bit too colorful for a dark rp (If I understand that right)

  • I would like it more if the cars would explode after a while when they’re on fire instead of just disappearing

  • The ar shooting sound sounds really bad, maybe change it?

  • You can add a helipad on the roof of the police department

  • The cars accelerate unnaturally too fast. Slow them down

  • You can add some environment sounds like cars going by, wind, birds and others

  • The reset button at the left upper corner could be deleted and replaced with the default one on the menu, there’s a chance you might click it accidentally when under stress or something

  • Maybe if you clicked money on the left then it would take you to the shop where you can buy various amounts of money instead of just 25k?

In the menu, I think you should add an image of the map instead of just a grey background.

Some buildings are good looking. While some aren’t good like the factory. I think the factory should have some windows on it.

Some things do look a bit out of place. There are some low-poly buildings in one area next to builds made with parts, and a realistic water tower on top of a brick building with no windows.

I like the idea of the game and the building system, I think that this game has some potential to take off.

I haven’t seen the game yet bc I don’t have any time. But from the pics it looks quite good. And if there’s a reset button on the screen GUI i think you should probably remove it.

Got a nice style to it, I like the menu a lot but the animating text for the intro is a bit slow and made me skip it. I don’t really understand the need of that server system either, and some bits of text are off centre - but nevertheless seems cool

Thanks for the feedback il make the intro text load much faster and also the servers exist because your bases save on them :slight_smile:

Also, when I was placing some money printers, I had enough materials for 2 medium printers, I placed 2 of them down and this happened:

I’m not in the build menu and it won’t go away and I can’t open the build menu until I reset.
