One map for Roblox and Steam

Roblox developers often win by bringing a game that is proven on Steam to Roblox before anyone else does. This page measures where that has not happened yet.

  1. Get the games. Every Roblox experience RoTrends tracks, with titles, descriptions, genres and players from RoTrends and Roblox, plus Steam games with their store text, tags and review counts.
  2. Turn each game into a location. An embedding model reads each page and reduces it to a long list of numbers, its coordinates on a map of meaning. Games that describe the same thing land close together, whichever platform they are on.
  3. Measure the gap. For every Steam game the page finds the closest Roblox games. A well-reviewed Steam game with no close, established Roblox twin is an opening.
  4. Write the idea. Put games in the idea basket and ask Claude for Roblox concepts, with the evidence from the map attached to the prompt.
