A good thumbnail that makes you want to play it and the game has to be good, of course |

How much robux should be spent on advertising or sponsoring? |
|
|
think of it this way. The more you spend, the more people will see it. |

Make a tycoon, claim DanTDM played it and you're all set. |

You think spending 1k robux can make it on front page? |

I was helping some developers of this game: https://www.roblox.com/games/361135314/UPDATE-Pok-mon-Gym-Tycoon but we were hoping/wanting DanTDM to play it. :P |

Ultimately the factor that being on the front page relies on is how good your game actually is. The more people that click it and play it the higher on the list it will go. Keep people playing and youll get there. |

1k is not enough. You would need 50k to get it to front page |

@Fired A friend of mine spent 10k (maybe more maybe less) just to get 170 players online |

All these (You need a ton of robux to get a front page games) are lies. I got my game on the front page with only 400 robux. Make GREAT ads, and spend all your robux on it. Also, get as many of your friends to play the game as you possibly can. Here is what I did:
Upload the ads
Wait for them to be approved
Gather all your friends into the game
Release the ads, use all robux.
Have some people post positive comments to attract players
Have all friends favorite
Keep all friends in game until you have at least 100 people in the game.
I made the front page in one day. There were about 20 new players being added to the game ever 30 minutes, and kept multiplying after the game was seen on the games page. You just need to make a good addicting game, and have a spark to light the flame. After the flame starts, it just gets bigger and bigger until the fuel runs out. But after that, you will have a lot more robux, and you can do the same thing for another game, and get even more players.

You know nothing about game developing if you think you need a lot of $R to get the front page. The MAIN thing you should focus in your game is RETENTION, which means keeping the players that play your game actually IN your game.
Think of it, if you get 10 new players on your game every 8 minutes or so (the average for a 500 robux bid), and you get 7 of those 10 to stay in your game for maybe 30 minutes at least, by keeping them busy, you will amass to a HUGE amount of players.
You will reach the hundreds this way easily, and then it's all uphill from there. Plus if your game is good then the players will come back, meaning you get dedicated players in your game.
The whole thing about needing to spend loads of robux to reach the front page is only for NOOB developers who make generic tycoon games like "DanTDM tycoon". In the end, it's all about how good your game is at getting people to stay.
That's why tycoons reach the front page so easily, because it requires a lot of time to finish. Duh.

@crossbar Thank you. I was worried about needing to spend billions of Robux to make my game popular.
Love breeds sacrifice... which in turn breeds hatred. Then you can know pain. |

A good game icon and thumbnail will get people into your game, but you have to remember this : The longer people stay in your game, the more people that see it. So basically you are giving yourself free advertisement by just getting people to stay in your game. Think of a game that either A) takes forever to complete, or B) is so addicting people can play it over and over. Or a mix of the two (MMORPG)
