VVVVVV is a simple retro-platformer in which you basically have to run and jump around the levels as fast as you can, in order to make it out alive. Its value at least in part lies in the hundreds of thousands of creators making money from content on Roblox and its hundreds of millions of active users, and the company is currently looking to expand into more countries, more languages, and add even more monetization features to make content creation a viable revenue source for creators. Roblox itself recently went public and at the launch of its direct listing, was estimated to be worth more than Take-Two and Ubisoft combined. The platform's biggest game, Adopt Me, brings in millions of dollars in revenue and is being made by a team of around 100 people - a full-blown studio with some of its creators working as full-time employees.
