Stopping production on this unfinished Roblox cinematic was honestly one of the hardest moments of my career.
A while ago, I promised the community Iβd eventually share what we had been building internally at Roblox. Here it is.
This project was a labor of love between an incredibly talented group of Roblox devs, animators, artists, and creators. From the beginning, it was important to us that this cinematic was built by the community, for the community, using assets entirely created on Roblox.
Every map, character, and object was ported directly from Roblox and re-rigged in Maya, building on a lot of what we learned during the reboot of the Bloxys. We had to invent new workflows, break things constantly, and figure out processes as we went just to make it possible. We intentionally made it harder on ourselves because we wanted to push the limits of what Roblox could look and feel like at a cinematic level.
The music and sound design were also original, though still unfinished. Entire sequences only ever existed as storyboards and concept art created by Roblox devs and artists.
Ironically, pieces of this project later ended up scattered across ads and trailers after my time at Roblox.
At its core, this was meant to be a love letter to the community. Hope you enjoy it <3
@SniterZ The references in the 8th Annual Bloxy Awards were supposed to lead into something a lot bigger.
There was going to be a Part II of the Bloxy Awards but Roblox came in and replaced the animation-styled award show with the in-person RIAs.

No matter what happens, we will continue to cover Roblox's attempts at silencing their critics and the consequences that follow.

π¨ BREAKING: Today Iβm suing Roblox - the #1 gaming site for children and teens β and a breeding ground for sex predators.
Due to Robloxβs lack of safety protocols, it endangers the safety of the children of Louisiana. Roblox is overrun with harmful content and child predators because it prioritizes user growth, revenue, and profits over child safety. Every parent should be aware of the clear and present danger poised to their children by Roblox so they can prevent the unthinkable from ever happening in their own home.
