i believe theyll get moved to a new channel after the deadline for voting
so reactions in the current channel dont matter

I kinda like this view...
watermelon 😋
asking devs to add watermelon day 100
there is watermelon
egg
DANG, i thoght my build was decent but 5 cookies before voting has even started?!?!
@tepid lichen is it allowed to add music to my video and speed video up?
Weird, there is only sound for me
mobile issue I think
Ah ima look it on the pc later then
k
ah yeah i see it now, nice
Works fine on my phone
Make the watermelons go into a guys mouth
And make the mouth open and close
And then add a star destroyer
Your welcome
nope i have the same problem but not for your video for some odd resone
This is the kinda thing I was looking for !! W
(Other submissions are cool too )
Hope to see more advanced stuff like this
like animated scenes
oh sick
Looks like doors opening and closing making a circle
@last marsh if you need me to I can record your animation so it’s smoother
Or is it choppy on purpose
I would love to, recording on a cell phone is a bit slow
I’m out of the house atm
I’ll let you know when I’m back
How long will you be online still
maybe about five hours
What would the golden trophy be like a trophy trophy like 🏆 and then gold @tepid lichen
A hammer
I own a gold trophy
you on?
Yes
k
Zeuky
sent a friend
@last marsh you can also change these settings if you can't accept a friend rq
Perfect
W
are these sliding doors
those are normal doors
Cool idea though, never would have thought to do something like that
A potential idea for the build is to maybe make the duck bob up and down as well. You could also add seeds to the watermelon and possibly different-coloured bricks.
Amazing idea, the logic side of things is very creative and out-of-the-box thinking!
Oh yeah and depending on what you build
It gets...
painfully...
tedious...
Especially because you can't copy logic builds...
Really wish that was a feature or they just outright removed boxed logic items and instead just made an inventory system so you could just copy builds using logic in your inventory
[just for logic components]
That would be nice, I bet my logic person would love that idea lol
I thought you could copy logic though if everything is boxed up
Oh crud I forgot to report the bug I experienced
so like
make sure if you made a build using neon lights
to move them separately
YES
because they DONT move with region move
drives me up a wall
had to move a huge part of my build twice and I had to manually move the lights both times
Very annoying, have a big main build which uses a lot of neon lights, not fun when moving big chunks of the build
I was so confused when I moved my build and my lights didn't, I for sure highlighted them with the rest of the build but they just got put in the wall
not only that, you can't even build off of neon lights for some stupid reason
like neon lights just...
don't exist(?)
Beats me how that all works. I just build nice-looking things
gosh it's gonna suck moving my logic build around my base due to the amount of neon lights I used
I built it in a relatively weird spot close to the edge so I need to move it since it doesn't have enough room for me to finish working on it after the comp ends
lol best of luck to you
at least all the neon lights are huge..
so I don't have to sneak into the tiniest part of the build just to click a light
Lucky, I got a few for this comp, they are tucked into some tricky areas, not going to be fun if I have to move this thing
For the competition itself it doesn't really matter since the thing I'd need to add to the front is purely functional and has no real impact on the build
The lights though... Yeah, I need those
Wait, people are already submitting! Crud, I've got to speed things up
Oof
I'm waiting a tiny bit longer so I can finish 2 final logic parts of my build along with cleaning up my plot of useless clutter
The primary parts of my logic build are finished though
Got to make a roof, do interior, do nature stuff + the logic D;
My original idea didn't work so we have been jumping between idea's for the movement portion
yikes
I already have all the logic + aesthetic parts of the two main parts of my build, but the logic for the remaining 2 secondary parts of my build are just annoyingly tedious
I am so done for D; Curse having no more free time!
If you're really good with logic I think you'll be able to put something neat together in 10 - 40 hours
I am absolute trash at logic, the best I can do is put two conveyors together lol, I got a good friend doing that part for me
It's not that hard if you simplify stuff but yeah it can be a pain
discord not loading my own sent images again
Looks like a cryo pod
An, interesting guess, you'll see the rest soon :)
Oo Can't wait
blue neon is so cool at night btw
im having second opinions about my one
i aint winnin (i havent started)
lookin' good y'all
i hope i will finesh this befor Sunday, May 25, 2025 9:00 PM :{
I believe in you
what is this bro
thx ❤️
this is Quoridor game
but idk how to tell you how this work xd :{
i think after 3 days i will finesh this and then i will send it i hope
its the thing you said didnt have enough movement
i think
they barely speak english they prob didnt understand 💀
omg bruh
hes making the corridor game
i think its too late now to tell him not to do it anymore though
Vro's cooked
Guys, what's the problem with me making it?
It does have movement, and the logic (electricity) is complex.
There’s nothing I did that breaks the rules.
So that means I can participate with it, right?
It would seriously be unfair if after all this, I still can’t :<<
whyyy :{{{
.
The idea is to have illusion of movement, not just any moving parts
i told you it wouldn't work 2 weeks ago 😭
But it does have movement — it's not just doors and that’s it.
No, it's actually complex, I swear.
maybe a good way to explain it is there has to be automatic movement / not moved directly by hand
like moving a piece is something i do myself and it isnt an automatic thing that needs to happen
not sure though
but i think you dont know hwat i mean :{
plss bro
just see when i finesh
yea but he doesnt want you to spend lots of time on something that isnt valid for the competition
@tepid lichen lets atleast see what it looks like in the end 
id feel bad if i made someone finish something and then say no
ya pls
yea thats why i told them its not what im looking for 2 weeks ago
idk why you still made it
Yeah, but there is nothing he can do now really
yea
bcs i think you dasent know my mean :{
he could just get contest participant role
What language do you speak btw?
i have :{ xd
oh yea
Arbice
ik how that game works and thats not like the kind of movement the competition is supposed to be about
alr ty for your time and ty all guys
since i feel bad
if i win 1st place ill give you 1 million
although i might not win at all lol
np bro xd but realy i see np to joine with it
naaah ty :}
k
but i hope you will win :}
ty
ty all guys and sorry for this again 😪
It’s okay, no problem — it’s my fault. I wanted to do it for a long time anyway, and it just happened to be at the same time as the competition. It’s all good, thanks. But can I still do something with the remaining time?
yea
If you win 
How does the participants role work? If I said someone worked with me do they also get it
Yea

Grr
I don’t think I can even win though
Still never started
I just said that cause I felt bad
same
found this in a random public lol
how does that work
interactor spamming the coins
popcoin
ah makes sense
sadly we cant really find these for a little while now
they're cheap as heck
oh really?
Don't count yourself short yet, I still have a lot to do with my build, not to sure I can get it done in time
my motivation all dried up so idk if ill do anything, but ill see later this week ig
The best thing you can do is try. The worst that can happen is that you don't make the podium. Oh well. The aim of the competition shouldn't be to win but to have fun building something nobody has seen with the tools available to you.
Personally I just need the excuse to build something different :D
i def wanna try, idrc if i lose or win
i just dont have the motivation to start lmao, that's the hardest step
ill figure out smthn
You got this!
The competition is the main motivation for me cleaning up my base lol
If you liked the stream and want to see more just go to one of these links and you can find much more

I just wanted to say that everyone should believe in themselves and not give up. also goodluck to everyone
agreed
even if you won't win, maybe you should try harder next time
id say try again next time not harder 😭
some people put alot of work into stuff
Yeeeea
People need to touch some grass
Somehow I spent more than that on doing nothing
lol
Logic still isn't done for me, and I have to do interior and exterior stuff, so still a good bit to do before I am ready to submit
Just finishing my roof now :D
All I have to do is make the whole movement part of my build
Which means I basically haven’t even started
sick
Why does someone need a door that small
What boat

We use planes around these parts


Oh my poor umb count, note to self don't make detailed grass lol
Looks cool though, going to suck filling it all in
Looking good
logic in place
Waperfall
@tepid lichen is stop-motion allowed
Nvm overtime gave me big idea
But I'd still like to know
in-game yes
Ok
like still needs to be a video
oh werent you going to animate it with lcds though?
shouldnt be that hard (i think)
Too much of a hassle
lol, also i think jak said it would only be 'allowed in-game'
Aw
so i dont think you can just make a stop motion in the video
😭
i might be wrong though @tepid lichen
Like some people were talking about using teleporters(spawnpads) to make stop motion
That would be acceptable
Jak out here showing the true potential of doors
Mostly out of pure curiosity from this, do you have to be able to walk onto someone's build and watch it to confirm a submission?
iirc you have to be fully honest about it (like you can't say "hey i made doom" with just a gif player)
I'm not going to check them all but they have to be made entirely in-game of that's what your asking
I will be checking when I give prizes to winners tho so if the build just doesn't exist I can't give the prize lol
Oh I just meant like did you specifically have to join a server with that person to make sure
nah
I'm just gonna trust you guys for submissions but if it's not you won't receive prize if you win
love how I get the "39 players have been banned for exploiting" moments after you said that lol
xd
oh thats good you said that lol
i was planning on deleting my build after the comp
thats.... odd
i placed it in a really bad part of my base
you can just move it, no? just make sure to select everything
deleting it seems like a waste of money
not if you select everything, if you mean logic wires
neon wires might not move from what i have heard
for real??
yeah, you didnt know?
if you move both components the wire is connected to it wont break
well thats neat
to the second floor it goes
just be aware there's a bug where neon lights don't get moved by section select
so you'll have to manually select any neon lights and move them seperately
i never liked neon wires so ill be fine
are you sure?
what am I looking at
neon wires
thats what you are looking at
@tepid lichen can it be 60 sec or does it max 30
wait
can we do a normal version in the submissions and the 30 sec max one for main post?

xd i know this from 4mth ago lol
@tepid lichen I have a question, sorry — if I add a screen or something similar, could the build be accepted?
I mean, like an animated screen in the Quoridor game or something similar — would that make the build acceptable?
There needs to be actual movement or illusion or movement
Depends idrk what you mean
Okay, I mean something like: when it's the blue player's turn, the screen shows that, and when it's the red player's turn, it displays that too — something like that. Also, I could add a section in the game where the first player to reach it gets a point or an extra wall. Would that be acceptable?
And maybe I’ll add some options on the screen too — I’m still thinking about it, to be honest. I might add more to the idea later, but for now, what do you think?
Sorry to bother you
is what i built ok
or do i need to change anything
Yours is good
That's still not really movement - i don't think this build rlly works for this competition
Alright, thank you. I just don’t want to give up, so I will think more about this game to add more movement to make it acceptable. And if it doesn’t have enough movement or as you wish, I will try to create something else within the short time remaining. Thank you.
soo cool
And I can also make a reset for the players if that would make the idea acceptable. If I find more ideas to improve it, I will do so. I have hope for this.
I mean to make a screen that has the settings, like you can change the number of walls for the player, and also you can set the number of steps the player can move. On the same screen, it shows who won and whose turn it is. All of this in one screen or two—like one for each player or a shared single screen. Also, there is an option to choose who starts first. All of this is on a screen where everything changes depending on what happens. For example, if someone wants to change the number of walls, they select the “change walls” option and adjust the number, and the same for the rest. So, all the settings are in one screen, and the screen is touch-enabled, meaning you can tap the options directly from the screen.
And when you choose the option you want, it changes visually in the game. For example, if you want to set the number of walls to 7 instead of 10, you’ll see the walls decrease from 10 down to 7—either gradually or all at once.
@tepid lichen Sorry for bothering you all the time, but I keep thinking while I’m working on the game right now.
some of my one is made in studio though
and i took it straight from the toolbox
@tepid lichen what would you think if i was able to make a replica of Crossy road with billboards and doors for some of the 3d elements
That would be cool
Wut
Yea these are all cool features but you are not adding movement
Watch him submit the game and then throw a tantrum when his post gets deleted despite having been told like 4 times that his idea is not on prompt
I'm literally trying to make it acceptable by improving it, so what's your problem now?
Thank you, but what kind of movement can I add?
I don’t want to give up, and at least I’m trying instead of just staying upset after all the effort I put in. And if the idea gets rejected, it’s okay — at least I gave it a shot.
I don't have a problem, i just didn't realize you were aware that your efforts are futile. There are a lot of times in situations like this where people just get stuck in denial about their submission getting rejected and keep going because of that, and then they still get surprised when they get rejected
I'm not surprised at all, just leave me alone. Surely, one day I'll win, and next time I'll come stronger. So don't worry yourself, leave it to the person with the previous win and the designer.
I want this printed on a mug
i took an asset from the toolbox
and took a picture of it for the thing i was talking about in dms
??? -_-
StickBug [Expert Logic Noob] nice name xd + nice
ty lol
🤍 so what did you do ?
wdym
I mean, did you build any design to participate in the competition or not?
ohh yea
nice
Progress so far
cool
@tepid lichen Just to confirm, are you allowed to put music in your video or are you only allowed to use in game audio?
you are
Okay thanks
W
watching them hold on
im keeping both in my post just wondering what looks smother and nicer for main post
the 1st is faster and dont let you look at the movement a lot
i like the first one you posted better but you have to trim 1 second off of it
wdym
omg
its 1 send long
is that ok
AAAAAAAAA
is asking people to look at post allowed
I've been using a freaking stopwatch app on my phone to make sure mine stays within the limit ;-;
people dont look at linked images in the stuff
@tepid lichen can we add this or no
its just asking people to look at the full submission
no
k
im going to have them all linked
does this work
or is this ok to use
jak is there a way to move oak space posts into another area
for archive for events
or can there be like a pin message in competitions with all linked challanges or stuff
they are always here tho
k
Still proud I had the last message in that post
crazyyyy
Thank the boosters that you can post that lol
ikr
I hate how discord would just block that despite each of the files being separate if we didn't have boosters
i made a video form in case it failed
In this video im showing off the competition submission i made

so i had back up
That cut is masterfully done
No cut
It’s all one thing
Didn’t cut the video at all
I meant cutting from the rusty putter to the regular putter
Oh
When it re spawns
Yes
My channel here
My post if anyone didn’t see it
Alr ima go on a trip
Might be gone for a few days
really cool and creative use of pedestals
Can I have my voice in the submission
why
Was deleting an old build since the build I'm making for the competition will replace it and accidentally managed to get the King Eg to actually stand upright lol
@unreal umbra PUT AN AUDIO WARNING ON YOUR FIRST VIDEO😭 My old wired headphones were on max and broke and hurt my ears hella
im being fr it is painful to have to hear everytime
RIP headphones
Weren't those the ones I donated?
Neat job hiding the swap between the two cars btw
I believe
I wasn't expecting anyone here to recognize my build just from that insignia, very impressive!
Finally finished my submission despite having nearly given up on it
idk
so far i think yours might win
that train is really cool
yea
although i probably could recreate most of the submissions before the time ends
that kinda isnt the point really, it's more about having some creative idea and seeing what you yourself can do with it
yea
but i always get worried that some evil person gonna do the same thing as me because they have all the time in the world
i wonder if its possible to make the tracks look like they are moving with some wooden planks on a conveyor belt
youd have to cycle it somehow but i imagine so
yea
ngl i think my idea doesnt have enough movement in it
and i had to make a queue system for something and costed me 200k so far just for the queue part of the queue
and i never tested the thing with as much as i need to do
so if it doesnt work
ill quit
Its actually really cool dude
@tepid lichen sorry for the ping, can cut the video to make it shorter, should I repost the submission when i m do that?
Yes
done it 👍
Also the clouds moving was originally part of the idea, I just had issues with the logic side of that so I had to drop that idea.
i can help
howd you get the train noise?
I have a toy train under the ground
They are very loud for some reason, but for once that came in handy
ohhh
@fresh summit you can resubmit if you add more, just having 2 doors open is definently not enough though
Alright
@tired furnace the wheels are sliding doors right the tracks are billboards ad the cacti are crate on a conveyor loop going up and down right?
yep
so i got all of it right??
That's amazing 👏
yeah
epic
glad i under stood it lol
for the tracks how manny images is it
and what motion
is it in a line or is it like 3 images changing
aka 5 images but delayed going down a line
or more if needed
32 images, though it's kind of weird, the left and right side use different images and each row is offset by 8 frames so it's kind of a 2 by 2 texture
cool how its set up tho
Is that a DEAD RAILS reference??!? 😱
i wonder what the logic looks like
alive rails
fr
the loom 💀
looks cool
i love looking at builds and seeing the cool ways people use parts and stuff to get new ideas
this comp is sorta like the Minecraft revaluation in Redstone with people making led screens water falls with effects, fans and alot more
Yeah, this competetion's theme was fire, and i'm quite glad that for once it isn't dominated by people who just have way too much free time to dump detail into a build
id like to see a build thats a forge
a truck brings rocks in
then goes in a pot to melt down
turns into magmight
and gets poured into a mold and hardens into like iron or stuff
That would actually be super cool
i just don't know how they'd make the cruicible turn
isnt someone doing something like that?
but when dumped it heats up
was the top part of the screenshot accidental?
my wall paper
ah
no no one is
its why i want to see it
its not a hard thing to do
look up a video like iron works

is this that??
obviously not the same
idk what they are making
but i think its a forge thing
@spiral inlet what are you making
Me who played jacksmith being an expert of metallurgy 
bro
i want to make it so bad
but i cant do 2 builds for the comp
😭
i can fr make it in one day
Just make it as a side project
yeah i prob will
just means it wont be in the comp
you can also just save the idea for another competetion, even when the theme is no longer motion, moving parts in a build will always grant you cookie points
my neurons are barely connected istg
if allowed
I don't see why it wouldn't be allowed, unless the theme is just not right for it
That all depends on what the next theme will be
1 picture
not video as a option
it might be unfair if the comp isnt based on motion or video
meaning that it would be images
idk
this is a jak question
if its video allowed or gif
thats side stepping rules
i wont do thats
but if anyone wants to take my idea
PLEASE
try and make it
if you need idea or help lmk
💀
im spending too long i think
although some of that time was used on things im not doing anymore
nice :}
Forge + refinery
Alr
why are the images on my billboard bigger than the images i made for the billboard?
yea
there's a limit of 1024x1024 for roblox images, higher res is downsized
image get stretched on billboards
they dont on posters
why 90 lol
so unless the bullboard is 1:1 size (square), you need to make the images as the same ratio as the billboard
90 is a very laggy circle
so a 1:2 is a billboard size of 6x12 and an image size of 512x1024
how is it stretched
part of the image isnt even there
send an ss
oh its not stretched?
that would give away what im doing
you can dm
nah i used image
but that doesnt make sense anyway
and it shouldn't matter (mostly)
if logic is the problem, dm kreeee, he seems willing to help
I made ~195 images for the comp 
i need more than the max of 200 i think
so if this doesnt work ill have to redo these images
Are you laggy?
no
Some images fail to load in sometimes, is it the whole image?
Lag spikes or lag in general can cause images to not load at all
could vouch for this, there was a time where i was in a server that made the animation appear every other frames
oh yeah right i was going to ask
whats the image resolution and billboard size
Yeah, thats why i pre-load images before an animation
preload all frames :d
billboard size doesnt change anything cause i tried it on a square billboard and nothing changes
195 billboards
but the images are 40 x 600
and the billboards i was going to use are 1 x 15
so 1 stud = 40 pixels
ok that shouldn't be a problem
im guessing the problem is it being images
and not decals
thats the only explanation other than it being a bug
or i magically made a zooming in machine
lemme make another image of the same size and test it
this image turns to
could just be me
87188913369208
anyone able to try it?
could it be my pc?
now im delayed by an unexpected problem
phone doesnt fix it either
im guessing billboards arent designed for images then
101611482707664
exact same thing but as a decal
yep
decals work and images get zoomed in
welp
now i have to make 200 decals manually
unless i can put decals into studio aswell
You can mass upload images to studio
Then use my plugin "ImageOrganizer" to arrange all of them :]
but they stay as images
i think
and images are the problem
billboards are only meant for decals
I don't quite understand the difference
same
In any case, i just mass imported the sprites for my build in studio, they are 1:1 aspect ratio so there's no weird scaling going on with them
thats what i did
but only decal versions of the things are working as expected
@tepid lichen is there anything that can be done about this?
yea thats what i did
The ones I donated were all rares
you can only upload decals, and they get converted to images
pretty sure images are the one that gets loaded regardless
anyhow it shouldn't matter (mostly)
for mine, I used images asset id
and it works for me
Image? decal? I put my funny images in the studio mass importer and it just worked
thats what i did
and everything was fine until i put the id into the number interface
this may be a stupid question, but did you copy the id correctly (only the number, no text, but also no digits cut off)
is there a max amount of images i can upload?
yea
i press the copy asset id
well even the number interface is fine
its the billboard that doesnt set it to fit or something
both of these are the exact same thing
left is decal and right is image
Time to re-upload all of the images as decals
So decals resize the image while images don’t?
Decals stay the same as they are uploaded and images stretch
Pretty cool
What is problem
huh
well that is weird
doesn't give me any problems when I use images
Images are decals, i think decals are just another way of roblox saying images
Yeah, but it shoudnt matter when you are only getting the ID
Most likely it's the way they made images in oaklands
yeah the differences shouldn't matter mostly
but it seems to be different for his case
Honestly this is the first time where i see this happen
and I used images asset id than decal asset id for billboards and it works fine
its only for his case thats different
Was this recent? Maybe a recent update accidently changed something
Idk this is all just very odd
im using it rn for the motion build and they work fine without stretching
It's looking so cool! I am so going to run out of time though
i dont know what this is but it looks really good 😭
it could just be me though
i remember a few days ago a decal was blurry
but it was a normal decal
i re inputted it into the thing and it became fine
Do you have your graphics settings lowered?
yea
turned them up to test it though
same thing happened
ill move on to something else in my build and then come back to what i was doing tomorrow or if theres a fix
Are you preloading?
Like, do you have the decals displayed somewhere so they stay in memory and don't have to be fetched on the fly?
no
does that mean i need a billboard for each of them that are on at all times?
i rejoined with these like this several times
Yeah, though preloading is usually the fix for flickering related issuses
I asked cause
If you preload the image on low graphics and roblox loads a low res version then even whwn you set your graphics up it might still use the low res image
Not 100% sure on this but that was my best idea on what could be going on
i dont think its a graphics issue though
that would make it blurry
not make it do things like this
rotated it by 45
Is the circle meant to be perfectly circular?
makes it look even weirder
yea
i actually uploaded the circle as a decal
the decal looks fine
Can you post the original image
Yeah i dont see why it doesnt work correctly
yeah idk why it does this for some images and not all
maybe background transparency messes with something?
no idea
maybe
ill test a circle with no background transparency
yea
i think its just pngs then
thats actually so goofy that transparency matters
Just roblox having potato quality systems as usual ;-;
i thought i put a background on the png i was using
yea
before i do that let me switch 1 of the images to something other than a png
and put it in
and if it works ill still ask hoofer about it
jpg is fine yea
goofy
yea
The roblox jank gods wanna prevent you from finishing your submission
@outer sage why?
Motion doors are literally low effort. Not really motion build
There is still time to improve it, at least add multiple layers of doors. Make the surroundings better. Give the build some sort of story.
Add sounds for the door. Make it command operate able
Bro realy idk what can i do to accept my something im make a game you all dont like it or dont accept and now nake this door again soo what can i do to accept???
at this point we should just let them do that
cause they already spent the whole month working on a game which they couldnt put into the contest
Sure, I just expressed my opinion with X buzzer. No hard feelings though.
What game?
Which game, i have no idea.
1min
Break it into 2?
yea
id agree
the corridor board game
Idk. Show it to me
I think jak can make an exception however it was told before hand to limit the motion within 30 seconds
Ty
Ya where the problem? Jak tell me this game just doors open and close soo he want more movment idk what movment he need
quoridor game
I mean this
it needs to feel like its moving
Idk, jak might be silly but what is this game, how do i play it and how do i win?
It depends how you explained to jak
Yeah technically its not a moving game, it static unless some one interacts with it
yea
Did you like tell jak before making it?
Idk how to tell you xd
My english is realy baad
Like spending whole month before even asking if such a game would be considered?
this was already discussed for a while previously though
Use translators, world is pretty advance now a days.
wouldnt recommend asking a bunch of questions
Ya i tell him but he tell me you cant make it bcs he want more movment
I didn't read, can you tell were they given green light to make this or red light to scrap the idea?
Alr 1mis
originally they got the red light
But you decided to make it still?
did it anyways and got another red light
Yet they proceed to make they game?
yea
the new problem is the vault door thing
although jak never said it wasnt allowed
Ya bcs i thinking he unknow how this work
1 min i will trnslet something to you
Hence conclusion is that game itself is good but not qualified for the competition. As for the door. They should add what i suggested. Multiple layers of door, smoke and animated lights around, sound effects, a whole room giving the vibe and story to the game.
vault doors are allowed but they need a cool animation
so jak has to be the judge of that
yea
the contest does have weird rules though
cant i just make a cool vault door that enters into a really cool looking build?
the people will probably vote for it
When I first joined, I participated with another game — XO, you probably know it. But I had made it around 3 months before the contest and submitted it, and it got rejected because they also wanted more movement. And honestly, I still don’t understand what kind of "movement" they actually want.
So I told him, fine, I’ll make a Quoridor game. He asked, “How?” I said the player will be an elevator, because that’s the only solution — otherwise the player would just be a screen, and that wouldn’t look good. And the barriers would be doors. Then he told me the idea wouldn’t be accepted because it doesn’t have enough movement.
I mean, there are 81 squares the player can move in and around 130 barriers — and that’s still not enough movement? I spent 3 weeks working on this game, and even after all that, it still got rejected.
Besides, I felt like he didn’t even understand me — like I couldn’t explain to him how the game actually works. I spent around 1.7 million (in-game currency I assume), and during all that time and effort, I was lagging or disconnecting from the servers because my home is 108uMB (Data Save).
Anyway, thanks to you all, guys.
ty for you time @outer sage @upper rapids
@tepid lichen I just want to know what type of movement you want, Jack, and anyway, I don't have time to do anything.
I think samo of ppl uesd this 🤡
Prob but that's what I hoped for. I wanna see all the cool stuff people could come up with 😊
i never trust people who use machine translation
Nice thx for this
🫡
Why xd
hello
@outer sage this is btw
Hi
remember days ago we had a similar conversation
Bro idk why tell me this what do you want?
I don't want anything, just find it weird that you wrote that heartfelt piece of text after being told several times by both jak and other members that your game just doesn't qualify, you continued working on it instead of focusing on building a different theme, and now you write this sad sad wall of text
mind you this is in response to more people telling you that your build just isn't on theme
With those 3 weeks you spent working on the game you could have worked on a different equally advanced game that was good with Jak
Alright, thanks for the advice — but your words won’t change anything anyway. I was going to make this game regardless, so it doesn’t really matter that much. I’m not upset or writing sad stuff like you think — you misunderstood.
And one last thing, I don’t even know why you seem upset. I was just telling what happened to me, that’s all. Hope you understand.
I dont have anything more to do bcs idk what jak want to make it
They, i understand you, don't feel disheartened. You did great, your game is good. Even if doesn't make into the competition. It is still a great achievement you did. It's a learning curvature. So don't be disheartened.
Translation can be bit bad sometimes but it does communicate well
Atlas i would say, your auto door is not bad, just put in improvements. Take help from fellow friends, make more doors and use more logics on lights, sounds, smoke, sparks and pedestal etc
I thank you for your kind words, and honestly, I'm not upset at all because I was going to make this game anyway a while ago, but it just happened that its time came along with the competition. So I decided at the time to participate with it. That’s why I designed the electricity to look like a motherboard or an electronic device. God willing, what’s coming will be better and better. I just hope Jack can be more clear in the future about exactly what kind of thing he wants, because I translate most of what’s said since my English isn’t that good.
By the way, I’m from Egypt. Thank you so much for your sweet words, and thanks again to you. 🤍
Btw i use Chat Gpt
Alr ty for this i will try
I had a feeling it was some AI translation but well whatever works to get communicate.
So we’re allowed to add music right?
yea
yay
Nice feeling 😅
Yea
look at the submissions i have accepted so far
I saw them, but I can't figure out what I might've done for you to accept mine. I understand that you want the movement part more than the electricity, right?
Wait, is mine not accepted, and if so what should i change?
The important thing is that there’s no time anyway, so I won’t be able to do anything, and even if I did, it wouldn’t be very good. But thank you, and sorry for bothering you all the time. I will participate in the next competitions — I have hope for that.
@tepid lichen I have a suggestion completely outside the competition, and it’s just an opinion. If you manage to make this game, it would be a whole new level (OAKLANDS). I suggest you combine the entire game into one and move it to be a standalone game like the ones on Steam, Epic, or Microsoft — meaning it would be a separate game.
What’s the benefit of that? It would help reduce lag because you’d be the ones managing the servers, not limited by or dependent on Roblox’s space. You’d have full control over everything, and you could add and develop the game however you want. Nothing would stop you — no Roblox filters or restrictions.
I repeat, this is just my opinion. If you decide to do it, it will improve the game a lot. By the way, I’ve been playing the game for 2.5 to 3 years, so I’m an old player. Sometimes my client crashes the servers because it’s very big — 110uMB. Thanks!

and also didnt you see hoofer has this thought already?

yours is fine
Okie
ya i see my bad but stell im hope about this
thing is i told them it wasnt gonna work like 2 weeks ago
😭
yea
Nvm bro thx and sorry again my bad 🫡
endless cycle
already planned by hoofer, but hoofer need ultra brain power to make it happen fast else we gonna see gta 6 before oaklands 2 on steam
ur definitely seeing GTA 6 first
oakland in GTA before oakland 2
Does anyone have any idea how to stop the flickering? also, could this work for the competition?
https://medal.tv/games/roblox/clips/klccu7NvBgj_2GaF_?invite=cr-MSw0Um8sMzU1NjAwNDIx
Watch Roblox and millions of other Roblox videos captured using Medal.
about the flickering, both machines are the exact same mechanism
I mean it could work but it's really not that much motion (it would be fine to submit but I don't think would do well)
Out of curiosity how much motion have you been thinking of?
Oh I was thinking of someone elses response to a submission not yours, sorry for the confusion
I see, cuz those where for an arcade
I see
your incrementer is likely resetting to 0 at the wrong time
ty
Thx its the interior for my build!
Really happy with how it's going so far, just so much to do in so little time D;
i believe in you 🙏
That makes one person D; still got another floor to decorate then its logic stuff
Thankfully the logic side of things is supposed to be "easy" we will see though
cool
my build is basically all logic
I went the complete opposite lol fingers crossed Its enough movement
🤞 fr
Here's another room, I am enjoying doing interiors :D
i wish i was good at building lol
Everyone has their own way of building and sees things differently. If you practice a lot and use reference pictures, anyone can become good at building!
- This is a logic comp, I don't have the highest hopes for me lol
At this point, all I want is a participation ribbon lol
okay yeah im just too busy and have no motivation, so imma leave yall to it. good luck!!!
thanks 🙏
here's an idea i was gonna try:
- some mineshaft thingy that moves marbles up from the bottom using various means
- make what looks like a moving minecart using sliding doors that moves across some linear track
- move mannequins around using conveyors specifically timed so they move to specific locations
kinda like a mine sorta idea
might do it sometime after the comp but i def am not gonna get anything done before the date, too busy
Cool : 💡
@tepid lichen is this acceptable ?
ya
alr thx
@tepid lichen sorry jak but my friend need to know if this acceptable or no ?
big ben
he want's to make a big ben from out side and in side with the Gears
he's gonna have to speedrun
yaa i will help him xd
yaap but i hope we get enough time
i had to scrap a lot of my stuff again
so i think ima need to speedrun even more cause i was making this with the expectations of me doing it in a week now i have to do it in 3 days
I think now this accept 🫡
Guys The competition's end time is based on US time, right? And if so, which time zone exactly — is it New York time?
@tepid lichen sorry but i need to konw if we have time
it says in #competitions
No, I mean that specific time — the one on the 25th at 8 PM — is that New York time or somewhere else in the US? Because I’m from Egypt, so the time would be different for me.
I ty i konw ty so this time is new york time thx
<t:1748196000:R>
is that actually just an rc car on a turntable 💀?
😂 Yap
Vreuh
I don’t see a turntable, i think vros just advertising 😭
"B-b-but it's neon tho"
👍 Thx
np
est
He fnished 50 % 100
With doors idk how to tell you but you will see soon
doors
most of the time i think it's sliding doors
yap and anther door
85 % 100 done
Nah all of them are actually using flat doors
Aside from the train, every single submission with spinning fans uses flat doors
There are a lot of main differences between using flat doors and sliding doors for spinning components
Flat Doors
Pros:
- Extremely Cheap (Only need to buy 2 or 3 logic components)
- Can be made fully transparent (you can see through them)
- Easy to set up
Cons: - Cannot really control the speed without ruining the illusion
- The doors flipfloping back and forth can still be seen relatively easily
Sliding Doors
Pros:
- Speed control is easy to implement
- The animation is constant and never flip flops
Cons: - Cannot be transparent due to the sliding doors
- Extremely expensive (Requires buying all the sliding doors, at least 15 logic components on an incredibly small fan that has 4 frames)
- Set up can be extremely tedious due to having to manually connect all the interactors needed as well as their interaction zone and being unable to replicate the doors for the fan
I myself used sliding doors just cause flat doors would have clipped trough the bottom
This is my build's simplified breakdown
omg
something something
It'd definitely work for a REALLY small scale build, although hiding the rest of the weather radar would be a real big issue
The smallest decent looking fan [using sliding doors] you can make is about 4 studs long
does it have collisions
idk
If it does they're really janky
wire organization? what's that? 
that part of the logic build where you just cant take making good wires anymore
I tried to (as seen on the right side) but as it went on, i don't know how i would make it good 
Nah fam that's a freaking particle accelerator don't lie to me XD
lol
i couldnt even take screenie of the whole thing at once
theres also a ton of logic squished in between layers lol
also what degree of angle did you use for each stack
1 degree
I was expecting decimals
w
Is that what you wanted?
sorta
ah
seems like a combination of a pressure chamber and a forge
honestly it looks amazing
Yeah
I think that's probably gonna win
At least to me that's the coolest build in the comp so far
well there's still some people who haven't submitted yet
fair
wait no
oooh
i realized that i am stupid
In my brain it was like "this is the 25th and it's past 20:00"
but uhh thats not time works
we got 19 hours 45 minutes left
yup
well, whoever still has to submit cause i already submitted mine days ago
oh yeah kreeee what contest did you won
I know one person who is working on theirs
im working on mine but i dont think ill make it
how'd I say this... schedule conflicts?
basically i have to do something tomorrow mmmm
trickshot
let's all curse yak for putting a competetion into the same time frame when exams are happening around the world 
time is ticking
