This essay sheds light on how Roblox became a global online game platform phenomenon, explicates how Roblox changed people's lives, and expounds upon how to earn revenue as a Roblox player. Roblox was able to achieve the stupendous feat of becoming a global online game platform phenomenon during its incipience. There are a multitude of reasons as to why Roblox was able to become a global online game platform phenomenon during its genesis as one of the utmost popular online game platforms of all time as of November of 2023. Roblox's extreme popularity among gamers is not solely attributed to Roblox launching as a free-to-play online game platform. Roblox is far more than a conventional online game platform. Roblox not only allows players to develop their own games via the usage of "Roblox Studio, an engine of Roblox, and Luau, a gradually typed embeddable scripting language", but also allows players to develop purchasable content to sell for their games in Roblox. Developing purchasable content to sell for their games in Roblox allows video game developers of games in Roblox to avail themselves of the opportunity to generate wealth from gamers purchasing their purchasable content. This is because "the Roblox Developer Exchange Program, also known as DevEx, allows Roblox creators to exchange their earned Robux for real money". As of August of 2023, it is estimated that over 40,000,000 games have been developed via the usage of "Roblox Studio, an engine of Roblox, and Luau, a gradually typed embeddable scripting language". "As of April of 2021, Roblox has 202,000,000 monthly active users". Roblox appeals to gamers since it is able to offer them access to tens of millions of games. Roblox has far more games than a gamer can ever play in his lifetime. Even if you were to expend the vast majority of your waking hours playing games on Roblox as a heroic character, you would still not even be able to experience the totality of the prodigious Roblox game library, especially since an exorbitant amount of new games for Roblox players to experience are being developed each year as of 2023 which further expands the already sizeable prodigious Roblox library. In order to be able to experience 40,000,000 games over the course of a three quarter of a century time window that are apart of the vast Roblox library, you would need to play at least 1,462 different video games per day everyday as a heroic character. Lamentably, as of 2023, there are not enough hours in the average human lifespan for the average person to be able to experience even 1% of video games developed even if no new video games were developed during the course of a three quarter of a century time window. There are only 683,280 hours over the course of seventy-eight years. There are also only 28,470 days in a seventy-eight year time window. The average human lifespan is ephemeral relative to certain other species that can vastly outlive human beings, such as "the turritopsis dohrnii species of jellyfish, the greenland sharks, and glass sponges". Even though most human beings do not work in any capacity, these human beings who do not work in any capacity still have an infinitesimal amount of spare time relative to other species that can vastly outlive human beings, such as "the turritopsis dohrnii species of jellyfish, the greenland sharks, and glass sponges". As of November of 2023, Roblox has gained significant traction as the utmost popular free-to-play online game platform of all time. Not only are there an exorbitant amount of Roblox videos on social media platforms that have attained viral status, but there are also a copious of amount of live stream broadcasts of gameplay sessions of Roblox games that have accrued substantial concurrent views. Even though Roblox launched in 2006 as a free-to-play online game platform that was released on computers, Roblox was eventually released on mobile devices and on the Xbox One amid the 2010s.
