After playing around with the subtitle (Snowboard Obby) the game started ranking pretty well (in top 15) under âsnowboardâ keyword. Still havenât moved at all in âdashâ, so Iâm thinking that some of the keywords are âlockedâ for one reason or another.
However, search still sends very few players in organically, unless sponsored ads are running.
This is not broken, although I get why it looks that way Itâs intentionally allowed for players to be able to walk around the track so they could plan the route a little bit.
Ohhhhhhh okay. That makes a lot more sense. I personally prefer learning as I go, but I understand that this makes more sense for most players. Great game!
Pipe numbers are just markers that show which type of tracks are there. They will likely be removed or changed to a clearer identification system (N01 for first pipe in NEW section, F01-04 for FEATURED and etc).
I also plan to add some kind of map for easier navigation
Honestly, I almost quit while working on that part and looking at my old code I canât explain how anything works. But in theory it should be calculating the position which is offset from pipe segment center by a placement distance and then at required angle push it by the radius of the ring.
And in editor itself I use raycasting (one ray for positioning, second one for finding hovered objects).
Something clicked in ROBLOX algorithm and it started recommend my game!
Might be coincidence, but the game also reached 100k visits around the time home traffic started growing. Other than that my metrics been around average with monetization being below.
Items can now be unlocked with CODES. People asked for this a lotâŚ
And if you donât have coins and patience to play enough to earn them, you can now buy some. This is less about a new shop item, but more about the popup that supports shop-related interactions.
He has made mobile games in the past so Iâm guessing thatâs where this idea came from, apparently itâs inspired by Subway Surfers and something else.
It was very sudden and random! Roblox just started recommending it somewhere and here we are. The peak CCU was something around 600. On a less fun note, engagement metrics arenât great and rating dropped down by 20%. But thatâs for me to solve!
