My group, Kohaú, hit 1 million members! This has been a dream of mine since the beginning and I'm so grateful for everyone who has supported us. Excited to see what the future holds!

Big thank you to @timmycakeman and @LegendOJ1_RBLX, couldn't have done it without you.

a few days ago we launched My Small Business, a cozy business simulator game where you design and print artwork, and the reception has been overwhelmingly positive

check it out! 💖

Today I'm launching one of the coolest NPC systems I've ever created, powered by Roblox's built-in AI text generation model discussed at RDC.

Our hibachi chefs can have full conversations with their NPC customers, with context about the game and their own decisions. The NPCs know the foods on the menu and the tricks the chefs are doing, and will reply to any message the chef says to them.

Conversations are fully filtered, shown only to one player, and only work for age-verified users with chat access, giving users who can't talk between age groups another way to enhance the serving experience in our game.

Check it out! 👇

Public testing for Saki's Sushi Bar opens tomorrow! We'll be taking the next week to wrap up all our bug fixes for release next Saturday.

Thank you so much for all the support so far ❤️so excited for everyone to play!

Over the weekend we announced Saki's Sushi Bar, our new sister group to our existing Japanese restaurant game Kohaú.

It's a similar style but appeals more to the audience that likes chill games with less strict rules and hierarchy-based promotion systems. Hopefully we can build a community who loves worker roleplay but never wants to worry about attending trainings or grinding for promotions.

Launches May 16th! 🔥

Thank you to Roblox for the Boxing Day Today's Picks spotlight! 🤯

In other news, we've been communicating with Roblox on the new chat policies recently and DevRel have been really supportive of us at every step. Love the team at Roblox for making sure we're heard. 🧡

[Owen @LegendOJ1_RBLX]

This is a dangerous move that will more than likely kill social roleplay games on the platform.

Creating a space for people of all ages to have fun roleplaying as a sushi chef, barista or car washer is something many devs have done successfully for years.

I've built a community of over 2 million people who have fun and socialize in my games. We have over 100 moderators who keep our game safe and enjoyable for people of all ages. Alienating an entire community is not something that has gone well for other devs in the past and is not what I intend to do to mine.

It is wrong for Roblox to class themselves as a social platform then backtrack on that when they realize they don't have the resources to handle illegal activities on the platform. Roblox's handling of accusations and overall transparency about such problems is very poor.

Roblox has fucked roleplay devs over and over with "safety" changes over the past few months. Now the devs who create positive spaces that rely on communication will more than likely lose that source of income. Seems like the nail in the coffin for social roleplay experiences.

The year of the hibachi restaurant 🍣

ending 2024 with a bang 🚀

[Owen @LegendOJ1_RBLX]

Another year of Kohaú updates is complete, and it's once again time to reflect on what our community achieved together. Here's everything we did in 2024:

🔥It has now been exactly 3 months since I started working at @KohauRoblox as their food modeler. Here are some of my fav so far! HUGE THANK YOU to @LegendOJ1_RBLX and @ScriptedJulia for this opportunity!

#ROBLOX #RobloxDev #3DArt

[Owen @LegendOJ1_RBLX]

It's rare that I'm speechless, but sometimes the biggest achievements are the ones you least expected. We owe this to our amazing community, so I speak on behalf of all @KohauRoblox when I say thank you. 🥹

[ScriptedJulia @ScriptedJulia]

@LegendOJ1_RBLX No game nights or TikTok videos will grow you a dedicated and long-lasting community. Give them a reason to pick your game by developing something they can't find anywhere else. This is what gives you the best chance of making a successful cafe game. (3/3)

[ScriptedJulia @ScriptedJulia]

@LegendOJ1_RBLX Kohaú grew because a community of players came together over their love for my idea. I created something new and that's why they chose to play. Having a successful group isn't impossible but if you're just copying what has already been done, you won't be able to compete. (2/3)

[Owen @LegendOJ1_RBLX]

No new updates this week, just that summer-time feeling. A new all-time record... drive it to the moon 🚀😉 #RobloxDev @KohauRoblox

[Owen @LegendOJ1_RBLX]

We added this to implement 4 of our most frequent suggestions:
- A profile with in-game stats
- A place to write facts about yourself
- A list of all the secret recipes and how to get them
- An index of all the cosmetics in-game and how to unlock them

Future updates will include being able to customize the design and color of your journal. Excited to see how people use this feature :D 🧡

[Owen @LegendOJ1_RBLX]

Kohaú would love to make it to the finals for Best Roleplay Experience and Best Social/Hangout Experience, so your nomination is appreciated!

When it comes to your favorite features in these restaurant roleplay games, what comes to mind? Slipping on spills? Kohaú did it first. In-game titles? We started that too. A cooking system with realistic hibachi tricks and not just clicking on foods? Ours was the first of its kind. Not to mention our constant additions of never-seen-before features like Secret Recipes, Chef Benefits, etc.

Oh, and to prove all that, we're the most popular restaurant roleplay experience of all time. Thank you for your support 😄
