Couple of years back there was a offer came in. If I remember correctly they were asking a lot more than you are suggesting. Do you remember? I think you were around. DAO was active.

I don't remember there being an offer. I do recall other people in the community mentioning we should do a Roblox game, but don't remember seeing anything more than that. Would be great to dig up what that offer was.

I will search Mav chat discord when I get time. Or you can search "Roblox" there

There was an offer, it made some people leave the blockchain entirely when it was voted to the depths of tartarus :)

Seems by the comments on this post the community is more open minded now.

The offer was expensive and people that were offering were bunch of wallflowers:)

They couldn’t take a simple criticism.

Thanks for digging up the original context, I'm gonna go get my rose coloured glasses and take a look :D

Edit: Seems,I said back then that the DAO should be used for that sort of thing / this sort of thing.

Anyone can build, or create, but as I always say, people who want to create will not let the lack of an incentive stop them from creating.

The reward is the outcome of witnessing your own creation, primarily.

Btw although I personally haven't built a Roblox game, I looked into it and I think that while it's not trivial it's also not that difficult... I'm not sure the quote above is actually realistic, but I do think it may be less than what people think.

I do remember a proposal with basically this idea a long while back but not the details.

I think my main issue with it is that Roblox is mostly a platform for YOUNG kids and I don't think kids are our target demographic for splinterlands.

With that said, if we funded and made a game that creates a ton of revenue that the Dao can then spend buying SPS / DEC, funding more developers or other team members, etc it could still be a gold mine and that much needed revenue stream so I'd be open to hearing a fully fleshed out plan for this.

Yeah I agree the target audience isn't quite right. But it's tomorrow's audience eh? ;) Plus they spend tons of their (parents') money.
