so this game is basically made to show off the power of the roblox engine… alright, but what makes it funny is it runs like crap
i didnt join roblox because the games were really high quality or the engine was extremely powerful, i joined because of the social aspect, the quantity of games, the fact that theyre all user made, and the free, relatively easy dev tools.
this is like if nintendo released a free eshop game to show off how powerful the 3ds was… but it ran at 20 frames in 2d, often dropped to 10, took too long to fully load in, and wasnt all that impressive anyways.
if i wanted to be impressed by graphics id play a modern aaa game. if i wanted to use roblox, id use roblox.
To anyone who does want to use some of the assets from this game, I suggest making sure they’re all as performant as possible. Sometimes there are redundant MeshParts, or objects with weird collisions. For example some of the rock pillars, which are just beveled blocks, have default collision, when they should have box.
When the asset packs are released, I’ll go through it and optimize them all, as well as compressing their textures, if that hasn’t been done already.
Are all the textures/meshes copyright free? I’d like to use some of em without worrying about that.
Everything in the demo is free use, including vfx, sounds, meshes, systems we built. All of it!
Beyond the other reasons for building this listed, one was to give you starting assets.
Endorsed models are almost done and we will update everyone, but in the meantime you can copy the place file and use all the assets in your own experiences!
As promised, we have released several endorsed packs, including furniture, props and materials we used in the experience. These can be used in your own experiences and games as you see fit!
House Furnishing Pack - Contains furniture to fill out your house.
Material Variants Pack - This pack can be used to create new materials for use on parts and terrain to customize your experience. They can also be used to override the Studio default materials.
We are also working on the same packs for “Beyond the Dark”, which will be released in the near future.
Also, feel free to share any updates on how you used these packs in your own experiences here. It’s always great to see what creations the community comes up with.
