Is being a roblox dev worth it?(i need help in my decision wether i should pursue it or not)

i say not at all.
economically its really not interesting.
dont remember what it was exactly , but something to the effect of paying 20$ a month, and earning like cents on the unit sold.
not a good deal.

i say you're better off building a game in unity and selling it on steam. even if your game is garbage (prolly will be, most people fuck up the first time they do something), you should still be able to squeeze a couple thousands units sold.

steam takes 20% and unity takes 5% iirc...

here's a gamedev blog. the guy works on unity and his games were initially shit. but he gets incrementally better. and he sold those games on unity. might be worth a look:

@bad-frog omg tysm for the reply..been strugling on these for like forever..quite scared to make the wrong decision and wasting my money and time for something that cant benefit me much as equals to it...and btw...20$? ngl i thot it was like 5$? per month the dev exch?

@bad-frog and tysm for the help btw 🤧

@Dunkin could be, been a few months since i have checked the matter. but didnt look good in any case. being paid with rolbucks or smth is a big bright red flag.

learn unity, and blender. it isnt "that" hard and those are skills you can proudly put on your resume:)

@bad-frog Dudeee u literally made my day..gave me a nice advice that prolly change my mind now bout roblox and guide me through it and gave a n awesome and funny video about game making ...THANK YOU SO MUCH 😭😩🤧..i hope you have a nice day
(´ . .̫ . `)

@Dunkin youre welcome.

usually devrant isnt a beginner-friendly forum, so dont get discouraged if you get treated harshly. you can find good people too.

ps. watch that dude's channel from the beginning.
he documents his gamedev journey from the start.

@bad-frog that's why im very thankful for the first welcome i got here after strugling bout my decision tysm again for telling bout that (´(ｪ)｀）

@bad-frog Yezzir i will tysmmm again

@Dunkin hahaha dont go overboard:)
a few more memes and i will feel obligated to write that game for you:p

@bad-frog jk

@Dunkin :)))))

Godot doesn't take anything (%) and is REALLY strong on the 2D side. 3D is also getting better. Targets for most platforms.

@Demolishun from what i hear the learning curve is steeper with godot...

@bad-frog godot is not hard. I haven't used Unity so I cannot compare. Its just a component based node system. Very intuitive.

@Demolishun then ill look closer into it.

godot being open source is very enticing for a tinkerer like myself:)

and it will be the perfect opportunity to check out node-based programming.
