roblox classic obby of glory
Okay, folks, let’s dive into my little adventure with creating a “Roblox Classic Obby of Glory”.
I’ve always loved those old-school Roblox obbies – the simple ones, you know? The kind that test your patience and jumping skills, not your ability to decipher some crazy complex puzzle. So, I decided to try and make one myself.
Getting Started
First things first, I opened up Roblox Studio. I hadn’t messed around with it much before, so it was a bit intimidating. But hey, everyone starts somewhere, right?
I started by laying down a basic baseplate. Just a big, flat surface to build on. Then, I grabbed some parts from the toolbox – simple blocks, cylinders, spheres… the usual suspects. I wanted to keep it classic, remember? No fancy meshes or anything.
Building the Obstacles
This is where the fun (and frustration) began. I started with some simple jumps. Just placing blocks at different heights and distances. I tested each jump like a million times, making sure it was challenging but not impossible. You want that sweet spot where players feel like they almost made it, so they keep trying.
- I added some spinning platforms – those are always a classic.
- Then I threw in some disappearing platforms. Gotta keep players on their toes!
- I even experimented with some conveyor belts, pushing players forward or backward.
It was a lot of trial and error. I’d build something, playtest it, tweak it, playtest it again… and again… and again. Sometimes I’d spend an hour just getting one jump perfect. It’s surprisingly tricky to make something that looks simple but actually feels good to play.
The Final Touches
Once I had a decent course laid out, I added some kill bricks. You know, those red ones that send you back to the start if you touch them? Gotta have those. It wouldn’t be a classic obby without them!
I also played around with the lighting a bit, just to give it a bit of atmosphere. Nothing too fancy, just enough to make it look decent.
Finally added check point to make sure players would not be frustrated.
The Result
It’s not the most amazing obby ever created, but I’m pretty proud of it. It’s simple, challenging, and (I think) fun. It definitely captures that old-school Roblox feel I was going for. And the best part? I learned a ton in the process. I’m already thinking about what kind of obby I want to make next!
