We just released an exciting refresh of the Roblox Developer Wiki, which not only sports a new coat of paint, but some new content as well. One page you may have noticed is a page entitled, “Why Roblox?”
We created this page to showcase our platform using examples from our developer community to highlight the innovation that is possible on our platform. However, with the millions and millions of games on our platform, we could use the community’s help in finding the absolute best games and developers to showcase. Here is how you can help:
If you can think of a game, even your own, that stands alone in its design, its beauty, or its innovation, share it with us below. Be sure to include the following:
A sentence or two describing what about the game you think is innovative, and why it stands out.
A compelling screenshot of the game that exemplifies why you are suggesting it.
We are especially looking for examples from the community that highlight games that work well across all platforms with beautiful 3D worlds built by the community, or with amazing lighting and visual effects.
Help us celebrate the best our community has to offer by sharing your ideas in the comments below.
Sincerely,
Byrne Reese

The game that I’m currently developing alongside @Spooks_HD, TERIO, stands alone in its design for many reasons. One reason is that its a very unique game idea to Roblox, taking the feature of home design and stretching it out as a core gameplay mechanic to get players to enjoy the wonders of designing homes among friends and other players.
Rollernauts by Numoji is incredibly impressive. In my opinion there’s no game on roblox that comes close to its level of polish as far a visuals and user experience is concerned. It’s so unique and beautiful, truly shows the upper bound of what’s possible on roblox in those regards. Like it’s mind boggling to me what these guys were able to create here.
The concept revolves around flying a paper plane around a number of different maps, with multiple game modes, plane customisation, and more. The game features a beautiful lobby to walk around and explore in, if you choose not to play a round.
This game presents stunning effects both visually and audibly. The great customisation tools presented to the user create a unique experience that can offer different styles of gameplay.
A game I am currently working on with Quantumdepression, Patar1996, and RyferionPrime. We are bringing a new style of racing to roblox that has not been done before.
The community I have grown on ROBLOX, which is now well over 11,000 people, has inspired and influenced me into becoming a builder and much more. This here is the first time I messed around with smooth terrain and created my own Sci-Fi world based around the endless lore I have put up for my group and as a result, I have created over hundreds of lore pieces and established my own genre and universe entirely, all written up by yours truly .
This may not be the best but it was my first time and I was quite proud of how it turned out! Hope you all enjoy! My personal favorite is the second screenshot.
Ultimate Driving takes full advantage of the versatility of the Roblox platform to provide its players with a uniquely realistic and expansive driving environment. Months of effort is poured into each map in order to create a massive, detailed, realistic highway system for the games players to explore, socialize, roleplay, and race on.
I love the design style although almost all buildings feel extremely claustrophobic. I’d like some more UI explaining and motivating the users. Potentially characters that randomly spew out facts and game tips? Either way, it looks great and you (as well as whoever else worked on it with you) did an amazing job with this game.
