Need feedback before sponsoring game [Block Run]

After over a year, my first real game Block Run is finally done. I’m planning to sponsor somewhere next week and would really appreciate your feedback (including my 2 new Christmas thumbnails which I plan to use).

The game was initially inspired by an old Facebook game called Stick Run, but it has grown into something different. It’s a parkour run game where you dodge obstacles and perform parkour flips/vaults, unlock characters (with their own unique perks/skills), items, and general skills you can get from drops or cases. While the game has easy controls, it is pretty difficult at first, which is why I provided a short playable tutorial but I might also decrease the starting difficulty later. It can be played with 12 players (might decrease), and the goal is to get the highest score by reaching the furthest distance without dying. The game gets progressively faster and harder along with more difficult obstacles.

It’s currently in alpha release but I think it’s ready for beta. The game can also be played from phone and console with no issues. There are currently 5 maps, each with their unique obstacles, mobs, and drops. I’m planning to further improve and add maps, skills, and characters.

Thank you for taking the time to read!

Below, you can find the 2 new thumbnails I made:


I feel as if the last one, is more eye catching to me especially with the reds, because I took a quick look at my front page roblox games and red seems to be a color that isn’t used a lot, so in theory it should be better.

Nice job! If you are looking for feedback then I would say the thumbnail doesn’t necessarily represent the gameplay. You game is a sidescroller and the people in your thumbnails give me the impression you have more freedom of movement. You could also experiment with blurs to convey motion in photoshop (or the online equivalent https://www.photopea.com/).

Thank you :slight_smile:

Do you think the current thumbnails would “disappoint” players? Is the game still fun?

Hire a UI designer, as the UI doesn’t match the game style (all of the 3D Models and such)

Edit: Maybe also make the levels easier (or make a easy mode and a hard mode)

I found it pretty fun and I don’t think the thumbnail is “misleading”, so it should get decent ctr. I would not shy away from making more.

No, don’t advertise before doing this crucial changes, game’s cooked if you don’t change these:

Roblox players have no patience, most of them will just quit on the first death.

Game’s waaaaay too hard.

Instead of just removing them from the game when they die make them respawn and instead of being the last standing make it so the first who finishes 1-2 laps wins.

There much better chance of success, you’re welcome.

Thanks for the helpful feedback! I wanted to originally add a race game mode later down the line, but now you got me worried :joy:

I have gotten many complaints on the game being too hard, which I why I now made it way more easy the first 30 seconds.

Thank you, I made a new thumbnail that is more clear with the gameplay just in case. It would be interesting to experiment with this:
