TL;DR:
I’m thinking of making a ‘simulator’ type game with a ‘loading screen’ mechanic.
- What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
I want to start developing on Roblox again, I have had an idea for a game but first I wanted to see how the community would think of this game design.
- What is the issue? Include enough details if possible!
Mainly I wish to see your feedback, constructive criticism and opinions, and, if you have the time, a minor poll.
Recently I fell of developing when school started again, however I want to start up again as I feel I have a much better knowledge of Lua and other programming languages. (C++, C#, Python, and ofc Luau)
I know that as a developer it’s a hard struggle between making a profitable game, a Unique game, while also making sure the game follows a simple “simulator” style, as that makes it much easier to gain and maintain a playerbase.
For me I never like to directly copy ideas, but all of my game projects I’ve worked on have all been “simulator” games (except for one which failed), so while I don’t want to be a ‘copy-paste’ game that is just like 1million other games, I also want to make a game that still has the classic ‘fun simulator progression’ (or classic NGU style) 1$ [upgrade] → 2$ [upgrade] → 5$ [upgrade]… so on…
I always try to make a game that has a mechanic/theme/style that doesnt/hasn’t existed before, (not just on Roblox but also on Steam, and other “app stores”)
So, here’s my game idea; a “Loading” simulator, games progression follows similarly to adventure capitalist where one waits for the “loading” bar to finish (x)seconds and then receives (y)cash. The game would be 70% Ui based but still exist in a lobby area, where one could buy: better loading screens (slower but more cash, say (3y)cash), and upgrades (loading screens load (1/3x)seconds ).
Obviously, this entire game exists in my head right now so if/when I do make it, most ideas will have changed. That said I would like to hear your thoughts and ideas on my hypothetical game.
Please feel free to express any Positive feedback in the form of comments or poll votes.
Thank you for your time,
