Widespread C++ Errors Disrupting Experiences Platform-Wide
A significant series of widespread technical issues is currently affecting the platform, with numerous developers reporting critical C++ errors in their game's server logs. One prevalent error, "Exception while signaling: bad_weak_ptr", appears to be related to the platform's C++ backend and is causing scripts to fail in live games, even when they function correctly in the development environment. Developers have speculated this may be linked to how player data is handled upon a user leaving an experience. Compounding this, another C++ error, "std::bad_alloc", has emerged, seemingly triggered when tweening UI objects, a common animation practice. This second error, also only reproducible in live servers, is thought to be related to memory allocation for UI elements or an excessive number of 'PlayerAdded' connections. The widespread nature of these distinct backend errors across many different experiences points to a significant platform-level instability, likely stemming from recent engine updates, which developers are urging engineers to investigate and resolve.
Massive 'The Hatch 2025' Event Launches Amidst Developer Boycott and Community Controversy
The annual platform-wide egg hunt, titled "The Hatch 2025," is running from July 2nd to July 12th, featuring an estimated 1,000 participating games where players can collect eggs to earn exclusive avatar items. However, the event has been mired in controversy. A significant developer boycott, using the hashtag #BoycottTheHatch, emerged after the alleged inclusion of a creator with a history of bad behavior. In solidarity, creators of several prominent games pulled their experiences from the event. While the platform has since removed the controversial creator, the incident sparked a wider debate about event organization, creator vetting, and platform safety. Developers also complained about a short two-week deadline to create content. Furthermore, leaked rewards, such as the "Eggcentric Elementalist Hat" and "The Egg of Ragnarok," were met with disappointment, as many egg prizes were revealed to be 'tiny' miniature accessories rather than traditional, larger hats, which many players found underwhelming. Despite the controversy, the event continues as a major discovery mechanism for smaller games.
'Grow a Garden' Community Buzzes Over Leaks and Prehistoric Update
The community for the popular game 'Grow a Garden' has been active with news of major updates. Leaks first surfaced revealing a future "Pet Mutations" feature, which would allow players to mutate pets that reach level 100. This sparked mixed reactions, with some players excited for the new content while others expressed concern over the significant grind required, calling the level requirement nearly "impossible." Following the leaks, the game officially launched its "Prehistoric Update" on July 5th. This event introduced a variety of themed content, including new daily quests, new types of seeds, and new collectible pets and eggs. Players can now cultivate unique prehistoric-themed plants such as the "Bone Blossom," "firefly ferns," and "fossilight trees," adding a new layer of customization to their virtual gardens.
Linux and Steam Deck Users Face Multiple Issues After Recent Updates
Players using the platform on Linux-based systems, including the popular Steam Deck handheld, have been hit by a series of technical problems following a recent update. Initially, users of a third-party client that enables play on these systems experienced a fatal crash on boot with error code 1857695244, which was traced to a new feature rollout. The community collaborated to find and share a workaround that involved adding a specific flag to a configuration file to disable the problematic feature. However, compounding the issue, a separate feature rollout then introduced significant texture corruption, causing graphical glitches within games even for those who had fixed the initial crash. An update to address the texture corruption has been deployed, but these successive problems highlight the challenges of maintaining a stable experience on non-officially supported platforms.
In-Experience Avatar Auto Setup Enters Beta, Promising Dynamic Character Creation
A major new feature, "In-Experience Auto Setup," is now available for developers to test in a beta environment. This powerful tool extends the existing Avatar Auto Setup pipeline, which was previously only available within the editor, and integrates it directly into live experiences. This update means that developers can implement systems where users can upload or select a 3D model during gameplay and have it automatically converted into a fully rigged, skinned, and caged playable avatar. This opens up incredible possibilities for dynamic in-game character customization and creation that was previously much more difficult to implement. The feature is currently in a beta phase, allowing creators to experiment with its capabilities and provide feedback before its full release to all live experiences.
New Creator Rewards Program Overhauls Developer Payouts
A new Creator Rewards Program has been introduced, set to launch in July 2025, which will fundamentally change how developers earn currency from their experiences by replacing the previous engagement-based payout system. The new model is designed to more directly reward creators for growing the platform's community. Developers will now earn through two primary methods: a "daily engagement reward," earned when their experience is one of the first three a user plays in a day, and an "audience expansion reward," which is tied to attracting new users or converting existing users to Premium subscribers. The goal is to provide a more direct and rewarding system that better aligns developer earnings with the value they bring to the ecosystem, though some smaller developers have expressed concern that the new system may favor larger, more established games.
Popular RPG 'Blox Fruits' Shifts to Weekly Updates, Announces Fruit Rework
The developers of the massively popular RPG *Blox Fruits*, which has surpassed 50 billion visits, have announced a major shift in their development strategy. Starting in July 2025, the game will move to a weekly update schedule to provide a more consistent stream of content for its massive player base of around 200,000 daily active users. This new cadence will begin with a "Summer Expansion." In addition to more frequent content, the team revealed upcoming changes including a full rework of the Pain fruit, which will introduce a new "pain meter" mechanic that powers up a user's attacks as they take damage. Furthermore, many of the initial swords and accessories that new players receive are being visually redesigned to better match the game's current artistic quality, improving the new player experience.
New Treasure-Hunting Simulator 'Dig' Sees Rapid Success in Early Access
A new digging simulator game titled 'Dig' launched in early access on July 1, 2025, and has quickly captured the attention of players. Developed by one of the creators behind the popular game 'Fisch,' 'Dig' centers on a core gameplay loop of exploring large landscapes to find treasure and using the earnings to upgrade digging equipment. The game's rewarding progression system and engaging mechanics have been praised by the community, leading to a rapid rise in its player base since its release. To celebrate the early access launch and help new users get started, the developer has provided several promotional codes that can be redeemed for free in-game items, rewards, and vehicle attachments.
Video Capture Feature and Developer API Rolling Out to Users
A native video capture feature has begun rolling out across the platform, allowing users to record and share short clips of their gameplay moments without needing third-party software. This new function is designed to make it easy for players to capture exciting achievements or funny moments and share them with the community. The feature is being released to a segment of users initially, with a broader rollout expected to follow. In conjunction with this, a corresponding Video Captures API will be released to developers soon. This API will grant creators the ability to programmatically trigger video recordings from their game scripts, enabling them to automatically capture key events like winning a match, defeating a boss, or achieving a milestone.
Creators Gain Enhanced Moderation Control with New 'Blocked Words' Tool
A new moderation feature titled "Blocked Words" has been released to all community owners, providing creators with significantly more control over text communication within their experiences. This tool allows developers and group administrators to generate and maintain a personalized, customizable list of words and phrases they wish to filter from their community spaces, such as group walls and forums. Once a word is added to the list, it is automatically blocked from being posted. This system gives creators a direct method for curating the social environment of their games and communities, supplementing the platform's existing global safety and moderation systems by allowing them to define what language is unacceptable in their specific contexts.
SavePlaceAsync API Expanded to Support All Place Types
In a key update for developers, the functionality of the `SavePlaceAsync` API has been significantly expanded. Previously, this function was limited and could only be used to save changes to places that were created programmatically via the `CreatePlaceAsync` API. Following the recent enhancement, developers can now use `SavePlaceAsync` to update and save any place, including those that were created manually within the standard editor. To utilize this new capability for an editor-created place, creators must first enable the “Allow place to be updated using Save Place API” permission setting on the Creator Hub. This change provides developers with much greater flexibility for managing dynamic experiences and saving user-generated content on the fly.
Registration Opens for 'Inspire 2025' Global Creator Workshops
Registration is now officially open for the upcoming "Inspire 2025" event, a global virtual conference for the platform's creator community scheduled for August 4th to August 8th. The event will consist of a series of workshops led by prominent and talented community creators, covering a wide range of topics such as immersive audio design, advanced scripting, map design, and plugin building. In addition to workshops, the event will feature "Coffee Chats," which are live Q&A sessions with successful creators hosted on the community's official communication server. Participants who engage in live challenges will have the opportunity to earn exclusive virtual items, including an "Inventor Hat" and other prizes, making the event a key opportunity for creators to learn, connect, and be inspired.
Platform Client Failing to Launch for Some Players After Recent Update
A segment of the player base is reporting a frustrating issue where the platform's client fails to launch following a recent update. According to reports on community forums, neither the website's "Play" button nor the desktop application icon successfully starts the game client. This problem appears distinct from typical in-game errors, as the application fails to open at all. The timing of the issue strongly suggests it is linked to a recent patch. Players have been sharing their experiences and seeking solutions, highlighting the technical challenges that can arise from frequent updates on a massive and diverse platform.
Wall Street Analyst Signals Confidence with High Price Target for Platform's Stock
In a recent note to investors on July 11, 2025, an analyst from a major financial institution set a new price target of $123.00 for the platform corporation's stock. This represents a particularly bullish outlook on the company's financial future. This new target is on the higher end of recent valuations from seventeen analysts over the last six months, which have resulted in a median target of $95.00. Such a forecast from a major financial firm is a notable vote of confidence in the company's growth potential and market position, and can influence sentiment among institutional and retail investors.
High Volume of Insider Stock Sales Reported, Including by CEO
Recent financial filings have revealed a significant volume of stock sales by insiders at the platform's parent corporation. Over the past six months, there have been 211 sales of company stock by insiders, with a complete absence of any insider purchases during the same period. Notably, the company's President and CEO was responsible for 89 of these sales, selling over 8 million shares for an estimated total of $674 million. Other insiders have also sold substantial amounts of stock. While insider sales can be part of pre-planned trading schedules for personal financial management, the high volume of sales without any corresponding purchases is a data point that may be of interest to investors monitoring executive sentiment on the company's valuation.
AI-Powered Avatar Partnership Poised to Influence UGC Landscape
A newly announced partnership between a leader in AI avatar technology and a widely used game engine is set to accelerate the integration of artificial intelligence in user-generated content. The collaboration will bring AI-powered avatar creation tools to the game engine's asset store by late 2025, with full integration planned for 2026. While this partnership is external to the platform, it signals a major industry trend that will likely influence the future of all UGC-heavy platforms. The ability for developers to easily integrate AI to generate high-quality, customizable assets could revolutionize how content is created and monetized, putting pressure on proprietary platforms to keep pace with advancements in AI-driven game development.
Players Voice Frustration Over Account Terminations Without Clear Evidence
A growing number of players are expressing frustration over what they claim are wrongful account terminations. In community discussions, users have highlighted cases where long-standing accounts, some several years old, have been terminated without any proof of wrongdoing provided by the platform. These players report losing years of progress, purchased items, and community connections, and state that the appeals process is often opaque and unhelpful. These recurring complaints underscore a persistent community concern regarding account security and the fairness and transparency of the platform's moderation and enforcement actions.
Leveraged ETFs Allow Traders to Bet on Daily Swings in Platform's Stock
A niche but growing corner of the financial market is now offering a new way for traders to interact with the platform's volatile stock: leveraged single-stock ETFs. These financial products are designed to deliver double (2X) or inverse double (-2X) the daily return of the stock. This allows traders to make significant gains or losses based on very short-term price movements, amplifying the stock's inherent volatility. The emergence of these high-risk, high-reward products indicates a demand from some investors for more aggressive trading instruments, though their suitability for retail investors has been questioned by regulators.
Gaming-Focused Company to Boost Thai Esports Scene
The esports ecosystem in Thailand is set to receive a boost from a new partnership between a local esports organization and a company that specializes in using popular gaming platforms to connect brands with Gen-Z gamers. The company has successfully used experiences on the platform to partner with over 100 brands, including major international names. This new collaboration aims to promote the development of grassroots esports in Thailand by leveraging its network of influencers and data-driven marketing strategies within popular games, highlighting the growing importance of UGC platforms in the international esports and marketing industries.
'All Star Tower Defense X' Players Report New Bug After Update
Following a recent update, players of the popular game 'All Star Tower Defense X' have been discussing a new bug on social media. While the exact nature of the bug is not specified, community posts indicate that the issue is related to the "new xerxes astd x update." The emergence of the bug has been notable, with some players commenting that they had never seen a bug in the game before, suggesting the current problem is a significant deviation from the game's usual stability. This reflects a common cycle in live service games where new content patches can sometimes introduce unforeseen issues that developers must address based on community feedback.
Developer Releases Customizable Random Number Generator Tool
A new, powerful, and customizable random number generator (RNG) has been made available as an open-source tool for developers. The tool is designed to be easily integrated into any experience, allowing creators to add randomness to gameplay mechanics like loot drops, event triggers, or procedural generation. It offers several customization options, including setting minimum and maximum values, adjusting probability, and controlling the seed for repeatable random sequences, which is useful for debugging. The creator is actively maintaining the tool and encourages contributions from the community, highlighting the collaborative spirit within the developer ecosystem.
Website Avatar Editor Receives Major Overhaul to Align with Mobile Experience
The avatar editor on the platform's website is receiving a significant redesign to bring its functionality and appearance in line with the mobile version. The updated editor will feature a more organized and intuitive layout for browsing and equipping items. A key change is the introduction of a more refined and authentic skin tone palette, which will replace the old "body color" system. When a user selects a new skin tone, it will apply to all body parts simultaneously. The ability to color individual body parts will be removed, and users with existing multi-colored outfits are being encouraged to save them before the new editor launches in the coming weeks. This change aims to streamline customization and create a more consistent cross-device experience.
Layered Clothing Fit and Customization Improved with New Updates
Significant improvements have been made to the layered clothing system, addressing long-standing community feedback. A recent update to the fitting algorithm tackles issues like "flaring," where clothing would stick out unnaturally at cuffs and ankles, and also reduces the excessive "bulkiness" that made layered outfits appear puffy. This results in a cleaner, more polished look. In a related update, the Accessory Adjustment tool has been expanded. Previously limited to head and face items, the tool now allows creators and players to adjust the position, rotation, and scale of front, back, neck, and shoulder accessories, offering an unprecedented level of control over avatar personalization.
Annual Developers Conference Dates and Location Announced for 2025
The annual Developers Conference (RDC) is officially scheduled for September 5th and 6th, 2025, in San Jose, California. This invite-only event brings together creators and brands from around the world for networking, breakout sessions, and a first look at the future of the platform. A virtual component will be available for those unable to attend in person. A major highlight will be the Innovation Awards, held in person on September 6th, to celebrate the community's most creative developers. RDC is a pivotal event where the platform often unveils its product roadmap and new technologies.
Platform Expands Educational Resources to Empower Next Generation of Creators
The platform continues to expand its educational resources for aspiring creators, aiming to lower the barrier to entry for development. The official Developer Hub remains a primary source for learning, offering extensive documentation, tutorials, and community forums. There are now also dedicated resources for educational game design, covering how to integrate gameplay with learning objectives. The platform offers curriculum paths and video tutorials for creating experiences, avatars, and items, catering to all skill levels. For those looking to learn the core scripting language, numerous online resources and open-source scripts are available to help master the essential skills for game development.
UGC Limiteds Fuel Dynamic Player-Driven Marketplace
User-Generated Content (UGC) Limiteds continue to be a major trend, allowing players to acquire and trade unique items created by other users. These items are released in limited quantities and can be resold after a holding period, creating a dynamic marketplace where values fluctuate based on rarity and demand. This system has empowered creators to build their own brands and followings. Numerous experiences have emerged that are dedicated to dropping codes for free UGC Limiteds, allowing players to acquire exclusive accessories and engaging the community in a constant hunt for rare items.
New IP Licensing Tools to Connect Creators with Major Brands
A new License Manager and Catalogue is set to launch, creating a formal system for creators to partner with popular intellectual property (IP) holders. This tool will empower developers to legally and easily incorporate well-known franchises from gaming, entertainment, and more into their experiences. Creators will be able to browse a catalogue of participating IPs and request a license, which will outline terms of use and revenue-sharing agreements. This initiative aims to open new creative avenues for developers and provide a structured way for IP owners to engage with the creator community, potentially bringing more official brand collaborations to the platform.
'Adopt Me!' Unveils New Minigame and Pets in Summer Event
The popular game 'Adopt Me!' has launched the second week of its summer event, introducing a new naval-themed minigame called "Sink a Ship." In this team-based activity, players work to steal treasure from the opposing team's ship and ultimately sink it. The update also adds three new pets: the Coconut Friend, the Emperor Shrimp, and the rare Priceless Shrimp. The Priceless Shrimp can be obtained by collecting Priceless Jewels from special chests, continuing the game's multi-week summer festival that provides players with new content and collectibles each week.
In-Experience Chat Performance Significantly Enhanced
A series of eleven performance-focused updates have been successfully implemented for the in-experience text chat system since April. These changes were specifically aimed at reducing the chat's impact on frame rate to create a smoother gameplay experience. Data shows that the optimizations have led to a measurable increase in user engagement with the feature, with a significant rise in both the total number of messages sent and the number of players actively using the chat system in experiences where the updates were active. This indicates the performance improvements have had a direct positive impact on player communication.
Thumbnail Personalization System Upgraded for Better A/B Testing
The system for personalizing experience thumbnails has been updated to better remember and utilize previously successful thumbnails. This enhancement allows creators to test new thumbnail images on a small portion of their audience while the system continues to direct the majority of player traffic to the existing thumbnail that has already proven most effective at attracting players. This change provides a lower-risk way for developers to experiment with their experience's visual marketing, allowing them to gather data on new options without potentially sacrificing their established click-through rate.
Developer Documentation Site Receives Major Search and Navigation Overhaul
A significant update has been implemented for the official documentation website, a critical resource for developers. The overhaul focused on enhancing the site's search functionality and overall navigation. The search system is now reportedly more accurate and provides results faster than the previous version. Additionally, the site's navigation structure has been reorganized to be more intuitive, helping creators locate relevant articles, tutorials, and API references more efficiently. This quality-of-life improvement aims to streamline the development process by reducing the time creators spend searching for technical information.
Murder Mystery 2 Deploys Major Summer Update
The highly popular social deduction game *Murder Mystery 2* released its major summer update on July 7, 2025. This seasonal event is a significant annual release for the game, which consistently ranks among the most played experiences on the platform. The update introduces a host of new content designed around a summer theme, providing players with new challenges and cosmetic items to collect. The event likely includes a new event pass, allowing players to earn exclusive rewards such as new weapon skins and special effects by playing the game.
Secret Zebra Content in 'Adopt Me!' Hints at Major Unannounced Update
Players creating new alternate accounts in the popular experience 'Adopt Me!' have discovered unannounced content related to zebras. This 'secret update' appears to be a targeted release or A/B test, as it is not available to all users. The appearance of this content without any official announcement has led to widespread community speculation about a potential new African safari-themed area or a new set of exotic pets. The game has a history of introducing content through subtle in-game changes before a full launch, and the secrecy surrounding this is building considerable anticipation for a potential major summer event.
Players Report Unresolved Platform-Wide Ping Spikes
A significant and growing number of players are reporting persistent and severe ping spikes, with latency jumping to 1,000-5,000 for extended periods, making many games unplayable. These issues appear to be widespread, affecting users across multiple devices and on high-speed internet connections. Players have voiced their frustrations on official forums, detailing how standard troubleshooting methods have failed to resolve the problem. The issue seems to be isolated to the platform, as players report no similar problems with other online games, leading to growing frustration and speculation about potential server-side issues.
Secret Test Version of 'Brookhaven' Reveals Radical Car Mechanic Changes
A secret, non-public version of the popular role-playing game 'Brookhaven' has been discovered, revealing that developers are testing a significant overhaul of the game's vehicle mechanics. This test version, accessible through a separate, unlisted experience, features new car physics and a selection of 'secret cars' not yet available in the public game. The existence of this separate testing ground, which includes a menu for reporting bugs directly to the developers, indicates that a major, unannounced update that could fundamentally change how players interact with vehicles is in the advanced stages of development.
Player Backlash Mounts as Large Studios Acquire and Overhaul Popular Games
A growing number of players are expressing frustration with the trend of large development studios acquiring popular, independently developed games. Players have complained on social media that these acquisitions often lead to a focus on aggressive monetization over gameplay, with the introduction of gacha systems and the locking of key features behind paywalls. The perception among some players is that these studios are 'ruining' beloved games by making progression excessively grind-heavy to encourage spending, sparking backlash and calls for boycotts.
Unconfirmed Black Friday Sale Leaks Circulate, Sparking Community Debate
Rumors of an upcoming Black Friday sale have been fueled by the circulation of what appear to be leaked lists of returning classic items. These leaks, in the form of an email and a document, detail a week-long event with a different classic item released each day. The authenticity of these leaks is highly debated within the community, with some pointing to the poor quality of the images as a sign of a hoax. However, the rumors are bolstered by a prominent creator who confirmed they have received information about a sale but are under a non-disclosure agreement, driving community hype and speculation.
Platform Quietly Merges HR and IT in Strategic Shift Towards AI-Driven Workforce
In a significant but largely unannounced strategic shift, the platform's parent corporation has merged its Human Resources and Information Technology departments. This move is part of a broader strategy to create a more seamless, AI-enhanced work environment by integrating the two traditionally separate functions. This organizational restructuring is a strong indicator of the company's commitment to integrating artificial intelligence into all aspects of its operations, from game development to internal processes. The company is also leveraging its own platform for recruitment with a virtual Career Center, further demonstrating its innovative approach to talent acquisition and employee experience.
Players Report Mysterious Reappearance of Old Games in 'Continue Playing' Tab
A number of players have reported a strange phenomenon where games they have not played in weeks or even months are mysteriously appearing in their 'Continue Playing' tab. This has led to confusion and speculation, with theories ranging from a simple bug to a new, deliberate marketing tactic to encourage players to revisit older experiences. The unexplained nature of this change has caught the attention of the community and raises questions about how the platform curates and presents game recommendations to its users.
Platform Partners with Major Search Engine to Integrate New Ad Formats
A strategic partnership has been formed with a major search engine company to significantly expand the platform's advertising capabilities. Announced on April 1, 2025, the collaboration will leverage the partner's advertising infrastructure to introduce new ad formats, such as "Rewarded Video" ads, where users can voluntarily watch a short video for in-game rewards. The partnership aims to attract a broader range of advertisers looking to connect with the platform's large Gen Z audience by making it easier for brands to purchase and scale their ad campaigns within immersive experiences, creating a new revenue stream for the platform and its creators.
Sweeping Changes to Terms and Privacy Policy Affect All Users
Significant updates to the platform's Terms of Use and Privacy Policy went into effect on June 30, 2025. Key changes include an expanded prohibition on using the platform's brand names in user and community names to prevent impersonation. The updates also formalize IP frameworks for third-party brand collaborations. For creators, the new terms include stricter guidelines for the Developer Exchange program, including revenue thresholds and tax documentation. The privacy policy was also updated to clarify audio data processing for voice chat and to expand on the use of facial media capture for age verification and animations, which will now require more granular user consent.
Partnership with E-Commerce Giant to Unlock Real-World Commerce in Experiences
The platform has partnered with a major e-commerce company to introduce the ability for users to purchase physical merchandise directly from within experiences. This integration, which is set for a broad launch in early 2025, allows creators and brands using the e-commerce service to sell real-world items to the platform's massive user base. The partnership aims to bridge the gap between the virtual and physical economies, providing a new revenue stream for entrepreneurs and allowing players to buy merchandise related to their favorite games and creators without leaving the platform.
Stricter Safety Measures Implemented for Younger Players
A series of new safety features have been implemented to protect users under the age of 13. These changes include restrictions on which experiences younger users can access, as developers are now required to label their games as appropriate for this demographic, with unrated experiences being blocked. Additionally, access to "Social Hangouts" and free-form user-creation games has been restricted for this age group. Parents and caregivers have also been given more robust controls, including the ability to remotely manage their child's account and set screen time limits as part of an ongoing effort to create a safer, age-appropriate environment.
Platform Exceeds Expectations with Strong Q1 2025 Financial Results
The platform's parent corporation announced strong financial results for the first quarter of 2025, with revenue reaching $1.04 billion, a 29% increase year-over-year. Bookings rose by 31% to $1.21 billion. The user base also continued to expand, with average daily active users climbing to 97.8 million, a 26% increase from the previous year. User engagement saw a substantial boost, with a total of 21.7 billion hours spent on the platform during the quarter. Despite a net loss, the strong growth in key metrics and record creator earnings of $281.6 million point to the continued expansion and monetization of the platform.
Platform Deploys Release 681, Featuring Engine and Studio Bug Fixes
A new version of the client and editor, labeled Release 681, was deployed this past week. This type of numbered update is a regular part of the platform's maintenance schedule and is primarily focused on technical improvements, stability enhancements, and bug fixes rather than major new features. The release notes for this version detail specific fixes that have been implemented for the core engine, the development environment, and the client. These routine releases are crucial for ensuring that the platform operates smoothly and reliably for its millions of users and developers.
Developer Forum Discussions Hint at Unannounced Physics API and Enhanced Game Testing Tools
Discussions on the official Developer Forum suggest that work is underway on unannounced updates to the platform's physics engine and game testing capabilities. One notable discussion revolves around a new property for the Part API called 'BodyAngularVelocity,' which was part of a larger, unannounced physics update that was delayed after initial feedback. In another thread, developers have expressed a strong desire for more advanced game testing features, such as the ability to grant access to unpublished game versions to specific users for testing. These discussions provide valuable insight into the needs of the developer community and hint at the future direction of the platform's development tools.
