20: Roblox game creators of Sharkbite, Max & Simon

  • Summary

  • Jimmy Carpenter chats to 23 year olds Max and Simon, who met on the Roblox gaming platform and created an immensely popular game, Sharkbite that has had over 850 million plays, all while living in separate cities. 

    They started playing Roblox when they were 13, and met while playing games on the platform. Their parents weren’t very sure about Roblox as a full-time job – they didn’t create Sharkbite until they were 18 and throughout their teenage years their parents thought it was a waste of time, but they are now completely self-sufficient. 

    They went to university, but found it an obstacle. Here they talk about the ways they have been able to monetise Sharkbite via in-game currency and purchases. Sharkbite is now a multi-million dollar game, and they have been able to buy cars, invest money outside of Roblox, and move-in with their respective partner’s.
