Is Sponsoring/Advertising these type of games worth it?

I have an Outfit or Avatar Shop type of “game” that I am looking to expand, but I am unsure what the right path is! Currently, I have made around 60k robux from the game and was hoping to put those earnings into making EVEN MORE robux!

The problem is, I feel like with sponsoring, you are trying to build up momentum with players piggybacking off each other even after the sponsor runs out, which then leads to a decent playerbase. But with my game, the retention time will naturally be low as the game is only there for people to purchase things! I could be completely wrong, but that is my thought process.

Basically, I was just wondering if anyone could provide some insight on whether or not it is even worth it to purchase sponsors or advertisements for this genre of game!

Sorry for the hard-to-read post; I am rushing a little bit!

Here is the Game in case this will help provide a better opinion, but you probably won’t need to:

that’s all up to you…

sponsoring/advertising through roblox, is like going into the casino & gambling.
you have a chance to succeed, and you have a chance to lose everything. It’s all decided by the casino or in this case, roblox / the biased algorithm so it’s a huge gamble.

imo, not really worth the risk :man_shrugging:

ty for the response! You are probably right though, advertising seems like it is pretty much just gambling with the algorithm :c I’ll probably think about it some more before I go full send, if I do.

Social media is a good method if you don’t want to use robux. Maybe even more effective than roblox ads. I don’t know though I’ve never put it to practice, I’ve only ever heard.

Social media works pretty well! I was doing it for some time and it was working wayy better than my test sponsor (45 Ad Credits). If a game is easily transferrable to social media it’s more effective than sponsors (Just in case anyone wanted to know that).

Thank you though :slight_smile: I’m just unsure where to invest my robux into lol

I don’t know much about advertising but save it once you have something to use it for.
