I am experiencing this issue with my game as well.
I think it might be that they don’t allow sponsorships on games that have been created recently. Cannot confirm but my current guess is this is a countermeasure by Roblox to prevent scam games from being uploaded then instantly advertised.
Have you had any success now that it has been ~11-12 days? I am currently in the same boat sitting at around 7 days after publishing my game to my group.
Getting the same problem, it is VERY ANNOYING that Roblox doesn’t have a specific error message, just a blanket “your game is not eligible” message. I BELIEVE in my case it’s because the game is just a few days old, but I genuinely don’t understand why there is 0 transparency here when it’s something so innocent.
Roblox, fix your error - Give us some specifics, for crying out loud. Lord.
I also have this problem! I released my game like two weeks ago and I still can’t sponsor it… I think that it has something to do with group games. It’s most certainly a bug
Yeah I have a game that was created on 8/10/21. It still has the issue. The issue isn’t just the date created, its the amount of updates over the course of several months. Because I have another game made in the same date, but I’ve updated it a lot so that one shows up for me.
I’ve heard sponsorships are known to help more then user ads, this seems like it’s affecting getting your game out there, so I hope it gets fixed, soon.
Notice how both games were created on the same day. However, I can only see the second game in friend activity, recently played, favorited. I can only sponsor the second game.
This is most likely due to the number of updates to the place over the course of the months.
I don’t know who thought of this system but its harmful for developers who work on a separate place file and publish to the main place all at once when they’re done. That main place would be hidden and cannot be sponsored.
