I mean... I guess? That would kind of be like submitting a downloadable minecraft world file, though. Going to have to be very impressive in order to overcome the initial 'wtf is this guy doing' reaction

That is the worst sort of comparison to Roblox!
Roblox is a gamedev platform and its main rival being the Core game engine!
Minecraft is a game and not at all a game engine thus it has no similarity to Roblox at all!
I have 4+ years of experience in Roblox and believe me, ive written over a 600 lines of code for my games!
Roblox and Core are the evolution of game engines the same way as the game engines did to assembly language!

Roblox is to Minecraft as Duplo is to Lego. Continue to pretend it's a legitimate platform if you want, but because of the stigma around it literally being a silly game for children as well as the perceived ease of constructing simple projects, no one will take you seriously. Please learn an actual game development program :D

You do know that u can make alot of money with roblox considering that it has just passed over steam as a platform in terms of games popularity...
Roblox is an actual gamedev platform, not a kid's game, there are FPS games on roblox, theres CBRO, Phantom Forces etc

Have u even tried it?
Its definitely a game creation platform.
It can be categorized as unity meets steam.
Its main age range goes from 7-18.
Its secondary age range goes above 18+.
I has its own asset store.
This is the engine!
You can write scripts in it!
This is Half Life 2 in Roblox :

And for the record, Core copied what Roblox is doing while Core is made around this time and Roblox was made in 2006. But for some damn reason , Roblox is looked down upon while Core is considered "something better", even though it lacks mesh importing which is one of the main reasons I use Roblox as compared to Core. A game dev platform gives you a tool with free multiplayer and free API server hosting stuff and a chance to make millions through developing as an indie and then its looked down upon. I heard right, the devs at Roblox appreciate their fellow developers more than the developers of the non-roblox community!
What else should i show to tell you guys that roblox is a legit game engine?!?

Thats a mod, as the name says.
Minecraft is a gane and totally different from roblox which is a gamedev platform.
So, u cant use mods, games only.

Roblox is not a game engine...
It is a platform where you can make silly games for kids that spend money from their parents' wallets. Go ahead and make a roblox game, but dont be surprised if you don't come 1st, 2nd or 3rd. No one will take you seriously with roblox. I am just being straight with you
I am sorry, I am just trying to be real, roblox was originally a physics engine for universities, but they turned it in to a money making game for kids, it's the truth. Roblox game development is not taken upon as a serious game engine, meaning that if you make a game with it, there is less chance of getting high up on the leaderboard, as judgement is community based.

horrible comparison. duplo is the same company, just for slightly younger people. roblox now has more teens than children, and theres only like a few prominent kids games i can think of off the top of my head. roblox is an amazing tool tbh, and if youve played it for more than 5 minutes you would know there are some legitimately amazing games on there.
