The post covers scripting an interaction system, cooking mechanics with burger stacking and stove flipping, a sandbox placement system, a customer order system with 8,000 randomized names, and a cross-server synchronized marketplace. Despite staying up until 3am fixing bugs, a submission error meant the game wasn't received, and they ultimately didn't place in the jam. The author also promotes their Roblox development learning platform, Noble Devs. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How do you fix the issue where a Roblox player can't smoothly pick up and move a part in a multiplayer game? The glitch happens because parts owned by the server conflict with a player trying to move them, since Roblox splits games between one server and multiple clients. Changing the network ownership of the part to the player resolves the fighting-for-control issue, and adding a smoothing module like Quenty's Spring library removes the resulting stiff movement. _Roblox scripters wrestling with ownership bugs compare fixes and libraries like this on daily.dev._ ### How can I sync a shop or market rotation across all servers in a Roblox game? Generate a randomization seed from real-world time compared against the Unix epoch (January 1, 1970), so every server computes the same seed regardless of when players join. This lets a shop's rotating inventory, opening at a fixed time like noon and closing at 5:30, stay identical across every server instance without needing a shared database. _Developers building cross-server synced systems trade patterns like this on daily.dev._ --- Tags: [#game-development](https://daily.dev/tags/game-development), [#ui-design](https://daily.dev/tags/ui-design), [#lua](https://daily.dev/tags/lua) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/i-made-a-roblox-game-for-1-000-cjsfnpdxf) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"I Made a Roblox Game for $1,000","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/i-made-a-roblox-game-for-1-000-cjsfnpdxf","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/i-made-a-roblox-game-for-1-000-cjsfnpdxf"},"datePublished":"2026-07-09T17:48:39.248Z","dateModified":"2026-09-13T20:03:36.230Z","description":"A developer chronicles building a 1950s fast-food cooking game on Roblox in 14 days for a game jam, working with a builder collaborator.
