Since Roblox is not even trying to pretend to care about their user's safety anymore, how about we make our own game platform/engine?

It would basically be a website similar to those 2000's/2010's games catalogue websites that is directly connected to a game engine so that users can make their own game and customize their avatars.

(yes basically Roblox but without the money-hungry, preds-protector CEO and a different aesthetic)

It's not impossible but it would be eaiser to make as a team than if it was only one person making it.

Maybe it'd be a better idea if those games get downloaded as a single file .exe in %temp% and then it being run? Could be faster (and simpler) then whatever Roblox might do lol.


I mean if we care about actual coders-

Roblox studio after all is just a little bit, too easy to make spam in. After all if you actually have to learn code for it I'd bet it will have better quality. Of course there might be less users then but still

This is honestly not even that incredible hard. We could do a system, where we just directly allow HTML5, css and js, and then basically use a build system like GitHub pages.

The way Roblox works, is by using a custom Luau context, but that’s super hard, and not very feasible. 

Since I’m super bored right now, I will start building something like that, thanks for the cool idea!
