Making a Genuinely Scary Roblox Horror Game

over the past few months I've been working on making a genuinely spine chilling Roblox horate here's a quick rundown on what the game is about and the progress I made so far so in my game you're trapped in maze only equipped with a flashlight and a can of spray paint when navigating in the Maze you encounter some very vicious creatures progress wise I've made maze generation a Monster Flashlight spray pain a and a lot of other minor things now that I've got you up scratch here's what I've been working on since the last deong the first thing I decided to do was to clean up the project which made it a lot less cluttered I then made the monster script better by using module scripts which made the whole system a lot easier to work with then mey and animator volunteered to do the spray paint flashlight and also monster animation which turned out great then another animator drau animated an idle animation for the lobby NPC then while thinking about animations I decided that I needed some new player ones instead of the Roblox defaults so I used the animations that I found from post on the dev forum and put them into the game and it was looking very nice and even nicer when a Community member named boa made some VFX or Lobby's lights and spray paint after that to make the game look more UND down Builder BR 20707 added graffiti posters puddles and a leaking pipe to lobby and also added Vines to maze I then made screens inside the train telling you when the train will set off and how many people are in the train instead of the billboard DUI I had before as it made the game feel a bit too game and broke the immersion then I decided that I needed another mon so after thinking on what to make I settled on a snake likee creature which can't kill you but will scream at the top of its voice calling the other monster to your location the first thing I decided to do to make the snake was make a tail which I did by having multiple parts then connecting them from a script I found on the dev form which makes it curve like an actual tail then to make the AI script I reused some of the code from the other monster and added the functionality so it's screams instead of killing you and then the other monster checks if it's in the radius of where the snake is and if so it will come to your location a modeler called a nerd made a model for the snake which was topnotch then I made you able to kill the snake by spraying spray paint at it I also made a little tween animation each time you use the spray paint I then decided that default player death was a bit boring so I decided to add what makes every game 10 times better better rag [Music] dogs expanding on the dead bodies I decided to make a loot system which wasn't exactly easy to make but after a lot of bug fixing I had it working I then went on and started to make the room generation system which I made by having a set of positions for the room and randomly choosing one of the position for the room to go and then if any walls are inside the room they will be deleted after making the room generation system I decided that I needed to put something in the room so I asked a nerd to make a crate model and he made it and did a great job after putting it into Roblox Studio I added a logo of doomed which I won't tell you what means as it's do of some secret law making the crate was relatively easy all I I had to do was follow a tutorial for opening a door and repurpose it for the crate then I just use the same loot system for the bodies and I had it working the room is supposed to be relatively safe as I've seen some videos on how to make a horror game scarier which say that you shouldn't have it so the players always in danger as it can become overwhelming and the players constantly tense and it also contrasts so when there will be tense moments which makes the tense moments even scarier therefore I added doors which when closed makes it completely safe to make the doors I used very similar code to the crate and a nerd did it again and made another great model after that I also added a door to the exit and made a key that would spawn in the crate which you would have to use to open the door I then finally improved the hot bar so whatever you had equipped would be made slightly bigger they also added the footstep sounds to the monster anyways that's all the progress I've made so far but I would just like to take a moment to thank all the people that donated to me and I won't be reading them all out otherwise this video would be too long thanks to J JK
