We aim to explore Roblox through two experiments: on one hand, we will create our own game on Roblox (the Wiki Speedrun). On the other hand, we will reach out to other Roblox game developers for potential partnerships. We will offer tentative concept art for cosmetics that can be given away through their games and platforms, as well as concepts for events that we can hold. This ticket is concerned with drafting the design requirements for cosmetic concept art that we will either execute on ourselves or deliver to a contract concept artist.
Acceptance Criteria
- Create and flesh out enough ideas for cosmetics such that we'll be able to deliver at least one cosmetic idea catered specifically to (most of) each of one of the top 10 Roblox games linked below by 2/26 (tentative). We can move our Design Biweekly to be next week on 2/26 to go over ideas. Ideas can come in the form of text or rough sketch.
- Ideally, the cosmetics would combine to create either a cohesive costume or a concept.
- Ensure that game-specific limitations apply. Cosmetic limitations are listed below.
- With these ideas, we will first talk to Comms, and then either approach a contract concept artist or draw these concepts ourselves (if we have the ability to do so).
Cosmetic limitations
- The Strongest Battlegrounds only lets players select game-specific characters and can thus be skipped here.
- Brookhaven RP, Adopt Me!, MeepCity, and Royale High have in-game avatar editors. These games should be the ones we focus on for cosmetics ideation. Other popular games with in-game avatar editors can also be considered/added here.
- Blox Fruits, Tower of Hell, Murder Mystery 2, and Bed Wars rely on players' default Roblox avatars. Blox Fruits offers in-game items such as weapons and accessories. Tower of Hell applies size restrictions to players' default Roblox avatars, but offers in-game effects and trails. Murder Mystery 2 offers in-game weapons and effects. BedWars offers in-game kit skins, final kill/win effects, and other cosmetics.
- Ideally, we'd have some relevant pet concept for Adopt Me! and MeepCity.
- Ideally, we'd have some skin concept for the character Piggy in Piggy. Piggy skins seem to be one of the primary cosmetic types for Piggy.
