The Roblox Developers Conference is here, and with it, the annual Roblox Innovation Awards. The platform recognizes and honors the best and most fun games of the year in an official capacity, which is great for small dev teams and the Roblox community at large. Check out the full list of winners below in all kinds of categories – from best audio to best video star.<\/p>\n
Roblox\u2019s Grow a Garden did very well, taking home three awards, including the coveted People\u2019s Choice award. The next best-performing Roblox game was 99 Nights in the Forest, which won two titles. Notably, Blox Fruits, Brookhaven, and Basketball Zero also made the cut, whereas the Best Creative Direction award went to Steal a Brainrot. This is controversial as the dev has been under fire for their use of AI in creative elements, and has faced allegations of stolen content.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re pretty unsurprised by Grow a Garden\u2019s success, and we expected Brookhaven to still be up there, but we are a bit taken aback that Splitting Point has taken home Best Studio for the second year running. Splitting Point\u2019s lead dev is Jandel, a creator who\u2019s been stirring the Steal a Brainrot pot recently online. Some fans online are unhappy, asking for the platform to recognize someone else, while others aren\u2019t too impressed with Jandel himself.<\/p>\n
