As a good person, I will not lie but, making roblox games, the market service takes away some of your robux to profit off of it and you basically get whatever you earned reduced... While making apps and softwares, you can get paid much more depending on what the platform does.. I believe by making a game go viral (fortnite) you can earn multi-millions and by making a good game on roblox, it will be famous but not near as much you would make if it was popular as a software...

If this helped, click accept, thank you for reading.

So this suggests as would be expected that there's a higher limit achievable with external games to roblox but externally you're working in a far more competitive market along with many other components that may be more variable to working within roblox.

In my opinion the experience you gain on roblox is extremely valuable and can help you into other parts of the software industry, especially as a beginner. Roblox generally speaking is easier to learn to do than general software given the amount of help we have on roblox. But one leads to the other, concepts learned in general software can apply to roblox and vice versa.

As far as the "more pay" question goes, it all depends, some popular indie games end up making their creators millions, but you have to remember they are the outlier. Most games are lucky to get 50 dollars a year. Where as on roblox you can develop rapidly enough to potentially earn even more money through having a large amount of games. In addition there are now professional level teams that are moving to develop on roblox because of how profitable it can be.

So, TL;DR, in my opinion starting to develop games on roblox is a great learning experience and is where you should start first.

If you are not good at coding, learn first. Dont think about which pay more, and is easier.

Its not about how much u earn, its about how u earn the money.

If you are better at the computer language of making the software, then make software.

If you are better at roblox lua coding, start learning more about the language so u can get better and earn more money.

Depends on what u are most interested in. And just do it without giving up.

Most importantly, its ur skill that makes u money.
