What kind of games would YOU like to play?

According to a post I read, a way to come up with game ideas is to analyze what the people want, and since I’m having a tough time coming up with ideas, i thought I’d make a little poll on narrowing it down. As a beginner, I’d like to do something simple, but something fun and engaging.

I also see a lot of roleplay games on Roblox. Such as Adopt Me, Welcome To Bloxburg, Royale High, etc.

A combination of all of them(other than simulator lol) would be my favorite

Create a story game, but not like camping. Create an actual story game, like uncharted. Obviously this would be a challenge, but it is possible!

I’ve actually made a jump of a cliff simulator game before. It didn’t do very well even after spending over 40k in ads.

There’s many games that combine puzzles, story, adventure and combat in one package, so perhaps you could’ve chosen something more specific like game genres instead of game features.

Could you give me an example? I don’t know what you mean.

FPS games, Open Worlds, RPGs and even sometimes platformer,. many of them contain all of the elements that were mentioned.

Man I always love a nice horror game. Good ones are always extremely well made and tend to be very polished.
I have yet to see any good SCI-FI horrors and there are a ton of cool concepts that can be made for them.

I haven’t seen many RPGs on the platform so this might be a reflection of how lackluster the RPG genre is on Roblox.

I generally play anything that comes from small developers because of how boring front page is now

I wouldn’t recommend doing anything based off these statistics, we are a community of developers we want games which are unique to everything else, potentially more challenging then the average and less cartoony then most roblox games.

While this is ok if your marketing to developers, we are a minority on roblox and therefor all this data will show is what a very small portion of the roblox player base wants.

So basically you’re saying i should make a game that I want?

What im saying is that your consumer panel is inaccurate, if you have friends who are not developers / siblings / random people in roblox games ask them that poll and see what they think, this will give more accurate feedback

Oh,i get it. This is a developer’s forum, so i’m getting developer’s answers.

There’s not many heavily story involved games in Roblox, I’m not talking about just normal games with plots I’m talking last of Us levels of storytelling. It’l be interesting to maybe see a detective trying to solve a crime that takes over his life or something similar that leans into the supernatural.

Anything original. Honestly. I’d like to see more of those.As long as you got a unique concept, I would play it anyday. But the majority of Roblox’s child player base may disagree. But hey, test your mouse sim can get a couple hundred clicks

Yeah, I’m a big fan of story games as well. Pokemon Brick Bronze was my favorite game for years.
