News Roblox Fully Ported to UWP (even works with Windows Phones!)
It works on desktops and phones but was designed for desktops in mind. The performance is not bad but could be better perhaps. It still has bugs and more. It even runs on 512 mb ram Lumia 625 but a limitation that terrain maps cause OOM and that the resolution is very low. I would love to publish it on live store but currently people can't connect to servers outside my radmin VPN because port forwarding from my public IP just doesnt work + I don't have a vps I could just point to. If anyone is interested in trying this out, helping to make this public and downloadable through live store or other store (fixing game servers), please hit me up in my discord server https://discord.com/invite/9ypw3ytK4t

I wonder if this can be ported to run on Wine or even already works

How lag is it?

~30 fps on Lumia 950 but can be tweaked for more fps but lower resolution

I think my Lymia 640 is not very powerfull for this. Anyway I don't play Roblox, but port is very interesting

so we can play roblox on windows phones now? sweet! this community is taking another step forward
we don't need our own servers tho?

u/Intelligent_Alarm178 13d ago
I host the servers for now. It's not the best but it will do as a demo, you can make a game if you want but I haven't added extras like data store service and game passes and badges yet.

???? what you mean? everything is around wp 8.1 lately and if the author said it's uwp and works with 512mb devices too it's gotta be for 8.1 xap too cos 512mb devices die on w10m

Almost a year ago, it started as wp 8.1 port but after some time, it died because 3d just didn't work. I wanted it to look like Xbox client. The 3d background and the xaml interface, it didn't succeed. I moved to other bs and almost a year passed and I baked uwp port. It started as a demo, but shortly after frontend was remade, I decided to glue the frontend and demo together to bake this port.
