Sundown (formerly The Purge but changed due to moderation) is a fighting and survival game created by Green Atlas. The goal is to be the only survivor and take out all the other survivors to win. The game was scripted by ChuckXZ although his username was taken off for unknown reasons.
Gameplay[]
As soon as the game starts, players will have 70 seconds to flee from the center of the map. Players can find cars to help spread out. After the 70 seconds, players will be given a pistol and an ax. As the game progresses, more weapons will be given to all players, until the last item is given, the scanner, which shows where the remaining players are at.
In other modes, such as duos, players will be given time to find a partner(s).
Interview[]
The following interview was between Thundermaker300 and TheHyb on Error: Page "User blog:RBLXDeveloperInterviews/TheHyb: Sundown" does not exist., as part of the Developer Connections Project.
- What was it like developing Sundown?
- Development from start to finish took about six months. Lots of ups and downs but most important part is to keep going. Lots of help from my friends Repotted, Kyle Congolese, and Bellumpius Wello.
- What challenges did you have to overcome while developing? What was the most challenging?
- I had to continue to remind myself not to quit and move on to something else. I think the worst part of that was around May 2018 and the game was almost done, and I was thinking about releasing without certain features because I just wanted it over with. Bellumpius Wello was specifically helpful here because she constantly told me to drop it (the nonstop anxiety).
- What did you enjoy most while developing Sundown?
- Release is simultaneously the hardest and most rewarding part. On one hand the game you made come to life is out, on the other hand there are a lot of bugs to fix.
- Is there anything else you'd like to share?
- Persistence is key. Be 100 percent transparent with yourself.
Moderation[]
Sometime in the summer of 2018, the game was taken down for moderation, due to The Purge being inappropriate for Roblox. This led to the game being renamed to Sundown and the concurrent players dropping massively.
