Help with my obby game idea

Hello!

I recently gathered a game idea, though my followers over on twitter said it would be boring.
I’m really struggling, do you guys have any ideas that would make the game better?

Here’s the idea:
You find a lever in a map, you might have to pass obbies to get to the lever, haven’t decided.
The more you progress, the harder it is.

So it is like a find the lever game.

There is no story. It doesn’t have to be something crazy in-depth but something to give the player an incentive to keep going. Otherwise after a while it sorta becomes pointless and they wont want to contine

Do you have any ideas? Bit confused on what you mean

Not sure how else I can explain it. If your plan is to make something short and simple then your idea is ok, but if you’re wanting to make a full game out of that idea, it needs something to keep the player going and wanting to continue to get to the end. Which I advised a story, what that would be is up to you.

some kind of narrator narrating your game or some copyright free background music

The game idea, overall in a basic wy, looks unique actually.

Try adding something unique and different that wasn’t been seen on your game, and ofc, with some narration and copyrgihted audio on the background noise of the entire game

Okay, thanks.

Yeah, I’m thinking about adding some more things to it

That was just the main point.

Here’s some of my extra ideas:

Powerups - Could give you a hint where a lever is when your stuck. Might have to comeplete something to get one.

Using keys to get a currency, to unlock something.
Maybe some pvp weapons, or something else, I don’t know

Also, do you know a name for it?
Sorry for asking so much.

I’ve got ideas to enhance your game:
-make it so that it is either more of a solo thing, so players don’t work together

-or make it team based, so different teams go head to head and working together to find the lever

-or everyone works together

-make it interesting, so there are different ways to get the lever, like it acts as a shortcut in a race, as in for example there are hidden keys in each map which open different doors to get to the lever quicker, and other players or teams cannot enter the gate or door you opened

-add different tools around the maps to stall or slow down or teams or players(don’t make it too overpowered or Pay2Win)

-you can add a game pass or dev product or free powerup called “fake lever” where you can place a decoy lever to trick other players or teams

-to give players a reason to keep going, you can reward them with maybe an unlocked powerup, so your powerup depends on what you have unlocked

-reward them with money or your currency

-good monetization by adding a really expensive but not P2W game pass, then add your other normal ones, this will make the normal ones look cheap when put next to the expensive one. It’s phsychology or however you spell it lol

-or maybe u unlock a power up by leveling up with xp, which you can get by winning after a round?

-reward your players HEAVILY once they reach a certain milestone or amount of xp, so they feel rewarded and are likely to continue playing for more rewards

-make the lever position random each time, so it doesn’t get predictable and repetitive, small amounts of repetitive games make much Robux or money

(sorry I keep editing, I just keep thinking of more ideas)

Your game is a good idea tbh, most good games on Roblox aren’t the complex ones, I think this game has a chance to make it, also building is a very crucial aspect in making a good game, if it looks nice, it will do good I think.
