Trying to Get Rich off Clickbait Roblox Games
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.พ. 2024
- Clickbait games that feature practically no gameplay and exist only to scam robux from children run rampant on Roblox. Their colorful thumbnails, icons, and descriptions promise a world full of fun and memes to unsuspecting young Roblox players, only to drop them into a game that they can barely see past all the gamepass buy buttons clogging their screens. With how awful these games clearly are, it's hard to imagine how they could ever be successful organically. Are these games actually getting hundreds of thousands of unique visits, or is it all just bots, scams, and other illicit methods? In this video, I aim to find out by immersing myself into the world of clickbait Roblox games and creating some myself. 20, to be precise.

So heartwarming to see a young developer make games he's truly passionate about and document it on TH-cam
God he’s so passionate I bet he’s not doing it for the money! Right…?
woah is that laughability?
awesome, i’m subbed
my glorious pookie king commented
hi snuggle wuggly fuggle muggle duggle woofey poofey doofey pookie boo bear
after careful consideration, i’ve decided to stop selling drugs. and start creating clickbait trendy roblox games. thank you nitro for helping me out in this decision
badger?
yeah what they said
Overdose😇
Sell drugs again 😄
creating clickbait trendy roblox games is not a good or productive job. try robbing banks instead.
reasons why the experiment failed:
- if games have a really tiny amount of visits, or have just been released, they will show up miles deep into the search, even if you search up the exact same name
- when searching up small games, they only appear if theres no other game like them and they have over 1000 visits, but with clickbait games its the opposite
- the most popular clickbait games attract the most players due to them showing up at the very top, which is why almost every other game gets 0 players. they did this by being some of the first few games about their genre, and were able to maintain their playerbase because of how long the glass bridge was
- most community posts dont get many views, which is why it only got around a thousand people to comply
basically the only ways to get rich by this is through botting a game, being early to the genre, advertise an insane amount of robux, or change a previously popular game
edit: if your game is pretty good, advertising is insanely important, and better when not with roblox ads. a lot of games blow up because of youtubers such as bake da baby, easiest game on roblox (basically blew up overnight because a small youtuber ~1000 subs made one video), and almost every front page game
Yap yap yap
this isnt a hate comment dummy im saying why the experiment didnt work because nitro didnt
@@FaZepoopooyumyumpants its information not hate speech did you even read the comment
@@FaZepoopooyumyumpants you too young to be able to read? 👶🍼
@@FaZepoopooyumyumpants hey buddy I think you and I are autistic 🤝
So this is what that community post was for…
Lmfao
Yeah lol
Lol guess it waa
Look at nitro! The savior of the 8 year old iPad kids, giving them purpose to play these clickbait games! Great job nitrolord!
W vid btw
That you you never post videos you 8 year old iPad kid
*sighs* I am an iPad kid
@@thatguywhomythhunts Well if you know that, may as well just set it down and go play
YES DADDY
A hint for advertising: Make a Free UGC item with little stock (
How about you give a percent of that stock to alts just to resell?
That's evil
Its free for the users, but if im not wrong you, the creator, need to pay alot for publish that items?
Not too much, although yes it can be a bit pricey... You need to pay 750 robux to upload and then 100 robux per stock of the item.
Being a clickbait developer is like being in an indian scam call center you are universally hated
I would not stoop that low even for the money
Eh I think it’s fine unless you add purchases
If this becomes your new most popular video I will cry
that would be sad 😢
@@blayzejYT Yeah literally
if it was im here
same
If it will happen some toxic kid will say "cry about it".
I remember when in 2017 40% of the front page was "OBBY OBBY OBBY OBBY"
It's so peculiar what the Roblox algorithm chooses to be big. Like I made this very bad "game" a couple years ago that somehow got 1000 visits, though it is literally nothing. Honestly it's just chance
same, but it got like 40k+ visits instead, kinda regret not adding gamepasses to it now.
I made a free admin game and got over 1K visits and the golden crown with just a few models lol
@@holl7wi have a game with 35k visits but roblox never even gave me the crown.....
so this is what that weird scam clickbait games were about
One man's trash is another kid's treasure, I suppose.
Nitrolord, if you see this can you talk about the federation items? Its my favorite hat series and i would love a video on it. Love your videos so much mate
That would actually be pretty cool ngl
At some point, yeah!
i do like the deferation hats
nuh uh@@Nitrolord

Here’s a question for the QNA: What do you think is the most underrated genre on Roblox?
In my opinion I’d go with platforming adventure story games just because there’s barely any (also a game recommendation is “the day the noobs took over roblox 3” love that game).
when i can learn to properly script, i think i will release a game where you can build a story game, i'm rhinking of calling it "storyline"
lately story games have been milked to Pluto.
like "need more heat" existed for a week and now we have need more cold, need more chaos, need more IQ, and need more bitc-
same thing with the "Get a snack at 3 am.", a lot of people milked the original (used to be creative) idea.
@@kajemorphic Honestly, at this point i would consider those types of games their own subsection of story games in which a certain simple plot blows up and is reused over and over, although i don’t think that’s bad in all cases it definitely does get boring after a while.
Puzzle games are underrated. Stuff like untitled door game 2 are very good
u like story , ok, but did u remember chain lemonade studio ?
man i love obscure and interesting things about the history of roblox
too bad lol
Yo same
Question for QnA: What do you think about the recent surge of fake limiteds through ugc? Do you think it’s good for players to finally have an exact replica of their dream items or is this a bad thing? Personally, I can’t decide.
Anyways, congrats on 100k! I recently found your channel and have been watching your videos a lot. Thank you for making such great content!
imo it's a double edged sword
I found this channel from the video he said most people knew you from, but I couldn't help taking a look, and looking back, it was probably one of the best decisions of my life. Long videos to either keep as background noise, or to actually enjoy. Thank you, man. Also, I got a question: What do you plan on going for in the future (Sub Goals, View Milestones, Connection with viewers, etc.)
Hey Nitro! Great Video (as usual), I had a random thought while watching your video, and I thought you could mabye make a large timeline of Roblox, from the Golden Age, to whatever this mess is now. Keep up the great work :)
I played your skibid game and the problem is that you can't see the bridge in the dark. The glass and the dark background make it almost impossible (for me, maybe because I'm on the highest graphic settings) to see the bridge. Kids love to see colour stimilu so this is an important factor. The glasses also respawn instantly so you can't expect a kid to remember where to jump for more than 3 jumps and makes them rage quite instantly. For the visits, yeh u need to pay ads lol. Always has been, games don't get a random playercount jump if the visits have been on zero. If they search bridge game they will see yours almost last
I also donated 50 bobux so enjoy your riches uwu
This was a great look into the scummier, scammier side of ROBLOX development. It was really interesting to see that the games flopped, even with the advertising and backing of your platform. The video was overall an entertaining and informative watch.
My question is this: How long are videos just concepts or ideas before they eventually become real videos? Some videos I worked on I've been wanting to make before I even made my channel. While others are spur of the moment lightbulb moments that I go to work on immediately. Congrats on 100k btw!!!
You made me and graffttyyy play Digital Circus Bridge or whatever its called for 3 hours straight 😭😭😭😭😭
Hello! I started watching your channel religiously around a year back after a very bad dental surgery, safe to say that you got me into roblox trading and all of that good stuff.
My two questions are:
- What is your general opinion on the new UGC limiteds.
- What is your opinion on the new holding system that occurs when trading.
I love this videos so much, it makes my day when they get uploaded. Thanks for entertaining thousands.
I've been watching for like 9 months and you are my fav Roblox YT out there and its really nice to see you hit 100k I hope you hit 1 mil soon
This is amazing keep it up ❤
Hey nitro! Just wanted to say i love ur videos and i have a suggestion. Could you cover "innovation inc"" next? If you dont know, innovation inc is a group of people who make sone weird yet interesting games. They have made a "innovation inc space station" and it is some kind of weird showcase game with multiple endings. Im not going to spoil them for you, but anyways have a awesome day :) .
Amazing video! You are my favorite youtuber on the entire platform. Every video you make is so fascinating and interesting! (A tad late for the question but, how long does itusually take to go down these big Roblox rabbit-holes?)
Questions;
1: What made you start doing youtube?
2: Do you get nervous when you made that community post
3: Are you planning to make an high quality games like doors, parkour reborn, etc?
i can't wait for this guy to become mainstream
Boneless burrito
ive been watching since you were at 50k subs and its amazing to see you get this far, congrats on 100k!
I've been watching your vids on repeat while checking for 2010 tix accounts (EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES) and somehow the same stuff never gets old
my friend got 30 million visits on a clickbait game
NOO I NEED TO PLAY ESCAPE FROM DIGITAL CIRCUS GLASS BRIDGE OBBY, UNPRIVATE IT
Love your vids!! Super epic. Keep up the good work.
I know a few big time devs IRL and the reason it didn't blow up is because you need to collaborate with youtubers and tick tok creators. Kickstarting a brand new game costs anywhere from $2k-10k in youtube sponsrships. It's worth noting that sponsorships go MUCH farther than roblox ads, and they are really the ONLY way to start a new game from nothing.
when talia's crew part 2 (you can take your time to make it i just wanna know if it is gonna be made)
A nitrolordx satsifying gen alpha attention spans
Heartwarming ❤
Congratulations on the milestone nitro, keep on growing and being and being a great TH-camr 100,000 is a lot
you forgot to add the extremely bright color backgrounds and skyboxes with the fast paced royalty free music
overstimulation nightmare
Hahah I remember playing the one you recommended and I beat it and died at the end and teleported me to a Skibidi toilet version LOL and I remember waking into that stupid npc so many times I wanted to throw my phone against the wall since it was unskippable and Yw! For playing!!!!
What did things did you use to reach this milestone? (Like video editing software, mic, video idea process, etc.)
(I have been subbed for a very long time, you were only at like 10k subs. THANK YOU FOR MAKING CONTENT)
Davinci Resolve, Shure SM7B, I mostly get video ideas just throughout my time exploring roblox and seeing what interesting/controversial things there are
Please make more of these. This type of video is my favorite
Yo bro, I just wanted to say massive congratulations on ur achievement, I watched alot of ur videos in the pass 5 months and didn't subscribe, but now I will. Your videos always interest me cause of that unique and classic look, there's even a time where I spent like 3 hours watching ur videos and was bummed cause I watched nearly all the videos. I'm also trying to be a TH-camr like you, its not really working out but that ok, again, massive congratulations and thank you for making always unique and funny videos. W Nitrolord 💯 (also skibidi toilet and digital circus rules! 🔥🔥)
Why do you kinda sound like ko neko kitten
Its his alt
Duh
@@jackmack5101no it is definitely not
YOOO NITROOO
I have a feeling the main reason why they didn't get visits is because you didn't add an age guideline to your game.
If there is no age guideline, by default, the game is restricted to 13+ accounts only.
Probably most people who play these clickbait games are under 8 years old and probably registered their account with their real birthday.
man ive watched every single one of your videos multiple times 💀they are so good
I was wondering why NitroLord was advertising me escape Poppy Playtime in The Amazing Digital Circus!
so happy you uploaded your my fav youtuber
Congrats on the milestone man,
also random QNA: What do u think of microwaves??
BRO, WHY DO MY COMMENTS KEEP GETTING DELETED, IM JUST UPLOADING A LINK TO A DROPBOX I MADE!?!?
womp womp
Its automatic
TH-cam doesnt like links for scam reasons
wowowowo
Congrats on being first
nitrolord i used to watch all of your videos in the summer and then i forgot that your videos exist and then randomly remembered them now lol
good job on 100k been here since the start!
I love your videos Keep on going you are doing amazing.
I was here at 1k-10k subs and wow. HOW MUCH YOUR CHANNEL GROWN!
Another great video like always
HELLO NITROLORD!! Theres a good chance you wont see this, and I don’t have a good question, but I just want to say I actually LOVE your content. It keeps my brain whizzing… I actually think its part of your editing style, its so creative especially in the bits where you make whole sections of you walking around (like the lab one LOL), your content is so SO SO good and im kinda sad that i only found your channel like 3 weeks ago, old roblox content is 100% my thing and u fill some void i didnt know i had. Its a joy whenever u upload!!
Q&A how did you get started in game development I have all these ideas but barley and skill. Thanks Retro
Been here since around 10k congrats! On 100k
Worst thing is that most obbys can’t even play anymore because of the amount of the gamepasses
Always good content nice!
QNA: Nitrolord, what is your favorite OG Roblox hat (2007-2013), Egg Hunt Egg, and event item in general? Also, what is your opinion on the Kleos hat series?
It’s midnight in 20 min so I have just enough time to watch this
Finally, some quality nitrolord content
heyo nitro will you ever make a follow-up video on kotss or the arktoran empire ... ? i think that would be sick
you should also make videos about non-limited OG or make a wish or event items. also keep up with exelent work nitro!
hey nitro! congrats on 100k, i have two questions:
what is your favorite fighting game?
and last, do you have plans to collaborate with other youtubers?
love ur stuff bro
Funny seeing all these same trends from like a decade ago (obby's with purchasable admin, items, using popular characters and free models to "theme" your game, etc.) still relevant today. Heck even the glass bridge games are just those old obstacles that you had to use the mouse walk cursor to figure out.
(Q/A question) Are you going to do a game jam/game dev contest? (without communicating, or some theme like that?)
keep on doing these videos they are really fun
question for the qna: favourite album???????? and will you ever make any other history video on other classic websites? (etc 4chan)
3:20 the sound jumpscared me
only reason im learning luau is to make trend hopping games that employ predatory gambling mechanics (for legal reasons this is a joke)
alternate title: how a garbage slop game works
Simple video I like it,no click bait, no drugs just good vid
(Ive been subbed for a while and im so happy you got this far,i hope you make more amazing roblox videos!)
QNA question:will you make more games on roblox?
I mean like,you seem pretty talented at creating games and i think you have potential,will you make actual games other then "*SQUID GAME SUS IMPOSTOR WEDNESDAY SKIBIDI AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS FREE RUBIX IMPOSSIBLE OBBY GLASS BRIDGE COMEPLETE FOR FREE REBAX*" games
this is so meticulesly crafted up to atomic level, its perfect in every way possible, one of the if not, best roblox games there is.
You’ve made many great videos about this platform and you clearly have an interest in it, but I am curious what Roblox games you actually play in your free time if any.
Congrats on 100k! Watched you when you used to wear dethroned ruler of the universe
This is my favorite nitrolord video
A QnA question: how long does it take to make a nitrolord video?
and btw I love your videos, I was here back in 2023:D
Nowadays, its really hard to get an game famous without spending any robux on advertising or having an famous game already made.
Oh hey a new video, oh and also, Fifth time asking this but eh, could you make a video about history of the Roblox fedora’s please?
Hello i had a question for the QNA;when are you planning on stopping roblox,could you maybe make a video about "The roblox hereos" like the people that saved roblox from bad things happening?
thank you nitro for putting so much passion into your game all to keep the 6 year old ipad kids at bay.
you should do a video on roblox lore characters like doombringer or telamon. im pretty sure you made a video sort of like this about factions please though i think this video would be very epic
thank you so much nitro you completely made me change my mind I will no longer try to become a roblox developer becuase there is basically no way to getting robux to adversite.
10:22
OH GOD NOT THIS HORRIBLE OVERUSED SOUND EFFECT THAT MAKES ME DIE
*GET OUT OF MY HEAD*
but still cool video
For the QnA, what inspired you to start doing TH-cam, and who inspired you to make the content you make today?
Bonus: what makes you think you’re a lord?
I want to ask what you plan to do if you got 500K or even 1Mil cause you deserve it.
I love the vids keep it up im gonna tell all my friennds
Hey, video suggestion. How about you do a video about items that have in game perks/ bonuses. For instance, the dragon egg backpack that would give you an in game effect in the 2018 egg hunt game.
QNA: How long does it roughly take to make a video and what's your upload schedule.
congrats man I've been here ever since around 20-50k so it's also kinda weird to see 100k beside your name then something else lol
A reason why the game probably failed in luring 10 yo's, is that the clickbait games were published during the time the themes/meme you picked were going viral.
When you start a new video, whats the thought process on making them as good as they are? like is a flat template and you add on as you go?
Please I need a sequel to the Talia’s crew video
Your my favorite roblox TH-camr all your videos are the best
