[Research] Paid 45-min session for Roblox creators: Help us test an early analytics prototype

Discussion

Hi r/robloxgamedev,

I'm a product designer working with one other researcher on an academic project. We're poking at something specific: Roblox analytics tell you "that" your retention dropped, but never "why".
If you've stared at a retention graph and just guessed, that's the gap we're trying to close.
We'll do this testing in the next couple of weeks.

We have an early prototype and we want creators to break it.

[What's involved]

- 45-minute video call, screen share, desktop or laptop required

- You click around a prototype and say what you're thinking out loud

- No prep, no right answers — we're looking for the parts that confuse you

- Sessions are recorded (screen, voice, camera). Recordings stay with the two of us, are used for this project only, and never go online or get used for promotion. Full consent form before your session, and you can withdraw at any time.

- $30 Roblox gift card after you complete a session

[Who we're looking for]

- 18 or over

- At least one published, playable experience

- Any size, but we're especially interested in creators below the thresholds where Roblox's own AI analytics tools kick in

Sessions start in about two weeks.

[What this isn't]

Not selling anything, not a marketing funnel, not asking for your account credentials or password. This goes into a research project and I'm happy to post what we learn back here afterwards.
