6. Publishing your Roblox Game

Publishing your Roblox Game

This guide will teach you how to publish your Roblox game and make it public and playable by your friends. Once you've built your game using SuperbulletAI, it's time to share it with the world!

1. How to Publish on Roblox Studio

Prerequisites

Before publishing your game, make sure:

Publishing Steps

  1. Open your game in Roblox Studio

    • Launch Roblox Studio
    • Open the game project you created with SuperbulletAI
  2. Publish to Roblox

    • Go to FilePublish to Roblox or Publish to Roblox As...
    • If this is your first time publishing, choose Publish to Roblox As...

Important Notes

  • Free accounts have some limitations (like no paid access)
  • Your game will initially be private after publishing
  • You can always update your game later with new features

2. How to Make the Game Public

By default, newly published games are private, meaning only you can access them. Here's how to make your game public:

Step-by-Step Process

  1. Go to the Roblox Website

  2. Access the Creator Dashboard

    • Click on Create in the top navigation bar
    • This will take you to the Creator Dashboard
  3. Find your game

    • Look for your published game in the Experiences section
    • Click on your game's name or thumbnail
  4. Configure Game Settings

    • Click on Configure (gear icon) next to your game
    • This opens the game's configuration page
  5. Set Access Permissions

    • Navigate to the Access tab on the left sidebar
    • Under Playability, you'll see privacy settings:
      • Private: Only you can play
      • Friends Only: Only your friends can play
      • Public: Anyone can find and play your game
  6. Make it Public

    • Select Public to make your game visible to everyone
    • Click Save Changes

Additional Settings to Consider

  • Allow Copying: Decide if other developers can copy your game
  • Enable Studio Access to API Services: Usually keep this enabled
  • Enable Third Party Teleports: Allow players to teleport from other games
  • Enable Third Party Sales: Allow game passes/developer products

Moderation Process

  • After making your game public, Roblox will review it
  • This usually takes a few minutes to a few hours
  • Games must comply with Roblox's community standards

3. How to Copy the Link to Share with Friends

Once your game is public, you can easily share it with friends:

Getting the Game Link

  1. From the Creator Dashboard

    • Go to CreateExperiences
    • Find your game and click on it
    • Copy the URL from your browser's address bar
  2. From the Game Page

  3. Direct Method
