Obbies are either a straw fire or fail miserably.
Most of the time the fail miserably.
For every obby that reaches most popular, there are haundreds that just rot.

The popular obbies are only popular because the creators spent loads of robux on them, once the ads stop running they die pretty much instantly.

Me and a friend are currently developing an obby and he makes about 12k robux a week so I think it depends on how many robux you spend towards it like sponsoring it and stuff

it also kinda depends on how interesting and new the obstacles are, and the total replay value.

if you can make an obby with several, interesting, and originally creative stages, then it can definitely do great.

if you do 20 pick-a-paths and ball hops, then you wont get very much.


I build for free, no full games or large maps! :D

make a different obby, spend ~100k advertising it, trick people in buying gamepasses, try to keep your game relevant by tricking people into playing it. the sad thing is that this is in my mind the only way to have a "successful" obby that gains profit. if youre in it to be "successful" this is the way to do it without wasting your time. go ahead and feel bad for yourself after, thats besides the point that you just made double the robux on advertising it

There are way better game concepts out there, even a asymmetrical styled murder or minigames game has more replay and success consistency value than an obby.

Obbies won't ever have a community, or recurring players, if an obby is to be popular it'll die out shortly later, they're literally a one time adventure similiar to a visual novel, unless you make a game like Deathrun or Speedrun which, like i've stated, is a proper round-based game.
