GUI Based Game Idea

I really enjoy 2D art games like Among Us and Henry Stickmin, as well as many others. I had a really cool idea that I don’t think has been done before (correct me if I’m wrong) to make a 2D GUI based game in Roblox where you control a GUI object instead of your normal character. I know it will be very annoying to recreate a movement and collision system, but I am going to try it anyway to - hopefully - inspire a new genre of Roblox games.

I will make the code open-source if I end up creating it.

This has been done before. It’s still a cool concept though. I forgot the game name but it was like a paper plane bullet heck kind of game.

That’s good to know, and yes, it is a very cool concept and I have not seen many games use it.

I like the idea of it. Well I wish you the best, Good Luck!

A cool idea! There’s been a lot of attempts at it, but it’s pretty rare that any completed 2D games get popular. Roblox doesn’t really support things like a 2D game, so you have to be really creative with the programming. The hardest part by far is going to be figuring out collisions.

Still, it is possible. The most impressive 2D game I’ve ever seen was a recreation of Sonic by VyrissDev. I can’t imagine anything topping their game.
