Positivity Thread! 🥳
Reply on sbox.game-
I recently made an honest negative review that got a lot of likes, and it feels good to know other people are frustrated about the same things I've been feeling about S&box. I think a lot of us are kinda frustrated with the state of the game and worried about the future.
It's easy to be negative.
But!
This has also been a really cool platform, and it doesn't feel good to be so negative.
There are a lot of really cool things about S&box, and I have had lots of good experiences, have made money from Playfund, have met cool people and worked on cool projects, and I want to have hope for the future.
And ultimately, despite its flaws, it's so much better than fucking Unity.
So let's have a positivity thread! Post nice things about S&box, the editor or the platform.
Some things you might want to post about:- Games you had fun playing
- Nice features in the engine or on the platform
- Good changes you're happy about
- Friendly people who have helped you, positive members of the community
I'll start:- I had a ton of fun playing Shot for Shot, roleplaying as a drunk cowboy and falling over. The piano player is an absolute joy.
- Run it Again is a lot of fun, and very visually impressive, really great game feel for something created in a jam, and the newest update with the CEO at the end who begs for his life has some awesome animation.
- I've never been much of a mapper, but I've really been enjoying messing with basic geometry and hotspot textures in the Mapping tool, and I appreciate all the hotspot textures offered by FP on the cloud.
- The new Revolver viewmodel animations are sick.
- The new Multiplayer tab is not bad. I think removing the server browser was a misstep, and this tab is a much needed bit of breathing life into the Multiplayer side of things.
- I appreciate that we can tell at-a-glance how many players a game supports now, that's a really necessary bit of information when you're playing with friends in a party.

- Scene Compilation seems to be a nice bit of performance improvement for certain scenes.
- Terry is dead. This is a sad thing in some ways. I have grown to love his sausage self. But I think replacing him with a slightly more attractive mascot is going to do a lot to help the game in the long term, and I would love to see how the cosmetics look on a new player model.
- I appreciate all the friends I've made in this community. I'm sorry for being so negative about AI usage and leaving bad reviews on games. Even the sloppest games have a spark of human creativity in them.
- I like the new menu music. It's sort of quiet, contemplative. It doesn't stand out too much, but it's pleasant and enjoyable.

I'm trying to be positive here it is just really HARD.

Super Chicken Escape is awesome though man, I had a lot of fun playing it.I'm trying to be positive here it is just really HARD.
You have made cool stuff and I'd love to see you make more.
