# ROBLOX 2005 Recreation Project
|
|
## Why are we doing this?
|
|
ROBLOX in 2005 was a different game, based around minigames with win and lose conditions rather than a 3D building game. Since this build of the client is presumed lost despite having around 100 users, we have to recreate it. We are using era-appropriate tools for this as well (Visual Studio 2005 and 2005-era compilers), as well as G3D 6.10, the era-appropriate version of the Graphics3D graphics library used by ROBLOX to this day.
