“ Features that were introduced around this time included Developer Events,
a service that would allow creators to create and manage in-game events,
and allow users to easily discover these events. On December 11 of that year, a full version of Roblox for iOS was
released that allowed users to play games, although users were not able to use Roblox Studio.
Baszucki and Cassel worked alone while making the earlier versions of Roblox, and created their own games on the platform
before the creation tools were completed. Due to its
status as a user-created games platform, Roblox has a variety
of popular games; by July 2020, at least 20 games
had been played more than one billion times, and at least 5,000 have been played more than one million times.
While only Roblox developers were able to create
avatar items early on, the capabilities of user-generated content has expanded greatly over time.
As with games, avatar items on Roblox are mainly user-generated, though most items on the
platform were made by Roblox themselves for most of
the platform's history. Roblox is an online game platform and game creation system built around user-generated content
and games, officially referred to as "experiences".
By 2020, over 5,000 games on Roblox had been played over a
million times, and over 20 had been played over one billion times.
The platform has also been used to host virtual concerts and events, as well as advergames. ”
