So I always have wanted to make a giant open source website for developers to use. I don’t really care about making money when I develop. I do it for fun. At first I was thinking about just doing it myself since I have a few skills. But in the end I decided I will probably do it with others. So now here are my endless questions.
Why I want to do this.
I may not be the best developer, but I want to leave a mark on roblox when I leave. I want to do something people remember me for. My best trait is probably my generosity so I decided I want to do this. And I already said I don’t care about the money. I would rather develop an awesome game that makes nothing then a trashy, scummy game that makes a lot.
First of all in the back of my mind I always knew people would try to claim whatever I do as their own work. I am thinking of ways to create watermarks without being completely obnoxious. If you have any ideas can you say what I could do for scripts, models, builds, and other things.
Second, do you think anyone would help with this project. Tons of people don’t want to waste their time making something free that won’t profit. I totally understand that. But I know I can’t make hundreds of assets myself. And if I do I might rush them and lessen the quality. I would prefer a smaller team as well.
Also, it there anyway I could create a DMCA type thing. Even though this is for mainly roblox type assets, I don’t want someone taking credit and profiting off of my assets. I am completely fine with people who do use it in their game and make money. But people who purposely sell it are not being respectful.
Additionally, should I make a whole separate roblox game/group as well? Should I keep it on a discord server? What should I do? I don’t know what would be most effective.
Lastly, this question won’t really effect my opinion of doing this, but what are you thoughts on this. I know that this isn’t an original idea but I hope it can help lots of other developers.
TL;DR - I want to make an open-sourced website for developers. I am wondering about a few issues like people re-selling, how to make efficient watermarks, and how to get developers.
This isn’t really a game idea, but it is closest category i could get
Thank you!
