    I have played real platformers, many mario games. There not being momentum in roblox movement requires precision, harder obbies have smaller platforms to jump on.

    A technique to get more precision in jump length is to take a curved path by moving the mouse, instead of going straight on. Its almost like surf.

    Stopped reading at the part where he says obbies are bad. Obbies are a classic roblox genre that honestly isn’t even that popular these days. But the core platforming mechanics are actually fun and theres actually very difficult techniques.

    Math difficulty chart obby is actually peak though, you have to do math problems after each platforming section, starting from grade 1 all the way up to highschool calculus with the jumps becoming increasingly hard.





  • Their goal is to create phones with floating screens. At the point where quest 3 is, ignoring the weight and slightly janky hand controls I can see the vision and future technology could make that real, but I don’t think its good for society. VR games also will never be mainstream since they require movement. I love VR gaming a lot, but 99% of people will try it once and never again. Its inherently niche. I’ve spent thousands of dollars on vr gear though so I don’t really mind if all VR games are niche since I like the janky indie games.
