Roforco is building a game publisher on Roblox. We help indie creators bring their vision to life, bigger and better by combining their games with our professional resources, skills and industry proven best practices.

Roforco has already developed and published 6 games, totalling 63m play sessions and around 120k DAU. We've created a top 50 game and average a 90% like ratio across our portfolio. In 2022, we worked with brands such as Unilever, Sunsilk and Cosmopolitan.

Our Mission

Roblox has millions of players and global reach, but the lack of an early stage publisher means developers with incredible ideas can't create new, innovative games. Roforco's mission is to enable developers to turn their ideas into hit games by bringing professionalism and AAA techniques to indie Roblox studios.

Summary

Above all, your main goal as a game designer at Roforco is to create an exciting, fun, atmospheric experience for our players, and to guide the vision of the game within the team. However, your role is varied as sometimes you may be more focused on other necessary tasks, such as analytics or Game Design Document creation.
