I have tried searching up ways to get my game popular, yet it doesn’t seem to be happening.
My game is cool and very fun, and I would like to share it to roblox.
Yes, my player retention is going great right now. There is this one player who seems to never get bored of my game.
Yes, my game keeps them coming back. The same people keep joining again and again.
I’ve tried ads, and they failed. I’m broke now.
I’VE TRIED EVERY WAY!
I have been doing this for months, if not years to get my games popular. I am close to quitting roblox developing and never coming back. What’s the point of making a really fun game if it never gets any plays?
I see your game " Streak Simulator" (the slap battles fan game) is failing
Change the icon and banner
It’s really confusing and is kinda poorly drawn, players will get confused at what you made
The sounds in game
All the sfx can be heard everywhere and it’s really loud!
Try to make it better and put it in a part so it’s more immersive for the player!
Put less dummies
There is too many dummies, it can make phone players lags
Screen effects/Phase changes
The screen effects are kinda weird, the tween service is good but wasn’t used perfectly
The glove
The glove is kinda laggy, try to make it half client sided to make it less laggy (WARNING : Can make exploiters try to exploit your game)
Precise that it’s a fan game
Yes it can help, roblox search will try to look the description and the title
“Tags” section
Make the player feels like a scam game or a money grabbing game
In the description tell about the game or things like this
Welp, that’s what I can say for now! I think you’re still a little dev so that’s why your game isn’t famous yet, don’t worry mine isn’t famous too lol!
Have a nice day!
Those are all great ideas! I think I’ll just make an option to remove screen effects and sound effects. How does that sound? I’m not a great artist, so I don’t know how to make a great Icon/Thumbnail
You don’t have to be an artist to make a great icon/thumbnail, I can’t draw too, so I just directly make it in the roblox studio thing
To get noticed try to do a youtube video of it, players can watch what the game looks like and will maybe play it (put the link in the comment or descritpion)
Even if you’re not famous, that’s how my game got ~100 active players per day
I played your game in an attempt to figure out why this could be, but my ears were destroyed by punch sounds playing even though I wasn’t anywhere near anything of the sort…
First off, your icon and thumbnail needs serious work. First impressions matter a lot, and personally this is a game I would never click on, simply because it looks like a low effort creation right off the bat.
Secondly, and most importantly, the game needs work as well. When you hop into the game, you’re greeted by a disclaimer message with grammatical errors, and a lobby of pure randomness. I saw a hellish lava skybox, and behind me were a couple bright neon portals on top of a completely white floor. The game doesn’t seem to have a theme of any kind, which isn’t a problem in itself, but you should consider finding a proper color palette for the lobby, and make it all separate from the map and the skybox that comes with it. I almost forgot to mention the deafening sounds of punching that make no sense. From what I experienced, punch sounds were supposed to play within the handle part of your tool, but are instead playing for everyone to hear, as if its just playing in workspace, which is obviously not enjoyable.
Before putting more money into ads, it would be ideal to fix up the game itself first.
