This is a pretty exciting event for Roblox 's surprisingly extensive fanbase. Cline's clearly excited too, as he has gone on record stating that "Roblox is the closest thing to the Oasis in real life, and this contest is the closest thing to the treasure hunt in my book." This seems a bit generous; in Cline's books the Oasis is a massive VR wonderland where players can go anywhere and do anything that their hearts desire.

But the online game creation platform has really taken off in terms of success and popularity recently. Its developers stand to make $250 million this year , more than double what the game netted them in 2019. The game owes this sharp climb in success to a massive boom in player counts, as well as upgraded monetization options for players looking to make money off of the experiences they create in Roblox .
