Hi, I could really use some help, I’ve been scripting for almost 2 years now, and I’ve succesfully finished 2 games of mine, Obviously both could use a lot of work in some areas, but for the most part their pretty solid games, people seem to like them (the few and far between that actually join the game) and I’m really just having trouble maintaining a solid community/consistent player base. I don’t have a ton of robux to spend on ads, both releases I’ve spent 5-10k robux Spanded over a couple of days for ads, and for the days the ads we’re up things were going great, solid player base, people enjoyed the game, good reviews, favorites, likes, people joined the group/disc etc but then after a little while a week or 2 I think, the game completely died out, no one played anymore. I really don’t know what to do anymore Im not having issues finishing games/updating/working on them, but Im just having trouble keeping the player base playing the game, for context. 1 game is a RP game, and the other was a magic/rpg/pvp based game. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you. I just need tips Im lost and idk what to do, Im considering just pooring a ton of money into ads but I’m trying to avoid that.
The way that you can keep players hooked to your game is to constantly update and add new items. If your game stays constant, then people will stop playing once they finish or once they lose motivation. However by updating the game every so often like adding new mechanics and new items will encourage the player base to come back to see if any new features were added. This is how front page games keep their player base, as they’re constantly changing and adding new parts to the game
I’ve been trying to do this, but updating doesnt really matter when theres 0 people on, Like literally a week after ads are gone the entire playerbase died down, Updates helped for the magic game, but for the RP game, its literally a community/player based game its all about social interaction that’s what role play is, I’ll try to do more updates though
Could you send your RP game so I can potentially identify issues that are leading people to not stay?

I think one of the big issues is that there were so many trolls when we advertised that they came in disliked the game because its roleplay
Overall it looks pretty nice. One thing that might turn people off is that there isn’t much goals to achieve or stride for, and after playing with friends for a bit they won’t play again. Also sorry if this feedback is inaccurate because I missed something, because my computer was only giving me 4 fps lol
Thank you, and yeah I mean it’s a roleplay game so the goal is just to roleplay with others, Not many goals I can add lol its all a social game there are many like it that do great so Im not sure what im doing wrong
That is true. One thing I might recommend adding is features like custom tags above the username.
For example, as I see that the main currency is yen in your game, you could add something like “Pro” for 100 yen.
Another idea would be to add cosmetic gears, like a speed coil or pizza. Or, if you don’t mind trolls, maybe even adding a sword for a lot of currency
