VoiceBlox was created mainly for the social hangout aspect, when voice chat games started trending on Roblox.

I started working on the project as an occasional contributor, but two years in, I started working mainly as the lead programmer, UI designer and sound designer.

After a while, we were focusing on adding new twists to the gameplay, with seasonal events and new features such as user profiles and NPC interactions.

This helped keep the game afloat for a few years, as it turned the game into more than just a "join and talk to people simulator".

Due to changes pushed by Roblox in virtue of many child safety laws passed worldwide, the game started getting its audience reach severely limited, and the effort to create & play social hangouts in Roblox has increased drastically.

Unfortunately, that's a massive killer for an experience that basically runs on new people constantly joining. Only games that were already huge managed to stay running, but even then, with a significant impact on metrics.

Because of all that, in Q3 2026, we decided to discontinue VoiceBlox. It remains accessible and mostly functional, but we are no longer adding new features and all plans for the game has been scrapped.
