I've seen this set on YouTube as well. I love it! Though the blue $250 in one of the more recent games kind of threw me for a loop.
The puzzle board's design is perfect! The BigJon letter tile textures look a little odd being used here, though.
Is there no way to program the scoreboards so that they stay blank instead of showing "$0" on a zero score? I've noticed all Roblox WOF sets (including one someone made that mirrors the Goen era) do that on the scoreboards even though that was never a thing on the show.
Can the screen behind the podiums be swapped out with landscapes like the actual show?

I saw this set too and played the game once on this set. I've played a few other times with another set they made based off the 1997-2003 set. I'm not sure how to make them blank when the scores are $0. And your right Mario that blue $250 is weird especially when there are no other $250's on the layout. I don't think there has been a real layout with just one wedge with the minimum. There is always at least two. There were two $300's in the S30 & S31 layout. And you didn't change the yellow $600 to $900 yet unlike Rings did?

Just tonight, they just did a show. Someone won the $100,000! Also, they updated the yellow $900 like Rings did. Also about their wheel is they have no gift tag and place the Half car that is next to the orange $900 and place it on the Gift Tags spot.  And, MarioGS , remember this puzzle? They used this puzzle on their show tonight.  |

We recently did another episode, here's a couple videos of it! We had a few technical difficulties, but we were just having fun with it. Includes the Triple Toss-Up!

The Triple Toss-Up will always have all three puzzles under the same category, not different ones, and they will usually have a hidden theme among them.
Why was the Mystery $10K on the Wheel in Round 4 in addition to the gold $10K wedge? Would that have counted as $10K per letter as well? And I take it $10K is exempt from the +$1,000 for the Final Spin?
Besides that, some of the Wheel wedge differences are a bit odd, having $250 and $400 but no $300 or $350, and the $1000-$3500-$5000 top dollar progression with $2500 sitting underneath all of them but never getting used.
As for other cosmetic differences, is there really no way to make the scoreboards not show "$0" for no money? And I would put a landscape on the screen behind the contestants since the show proper never uses the logo. I would also drop the audience reaction sound effects when top value is hit since we all know this isn't a thing on the show anymore.
That all being said, it's your game and you can do whatever you want with it. The animated logo does look nice, and you've really outdone yourself on the set. All of the Roblox Wheel sets I've seen are amazing. I also like that the flippers have been changed to only angle to the right instead of "swinging" left and right like in the older videos.

And I take it $10K is exempt from the +$1,000 for the Final Spin? Was by accident, but I would've counted it as $10k a letter. Besides that, some of the Wheel wedge differences are a bit odd, having $250 and $400 but no $300 or $350, and the $1000-$3500-$5000 top dollar progression with $2500 sitting underneath all of them but never getting used. The $1000 is currently being used in place of the $2500, as we're having some issues with that wedge actually showing up on the Wheel. Some of the amounts on the wheel get changed every couple of episodes just to keep the game "fresh" As for other cosmetic differences, is there really no way to make the scoreboards not show "$0" for no money? And I would put a landscape on the screen behind the contestants since the show proper never uses the logo. We're currently working on an entirely new set refurbish for sometime in either October or November, The scoreboards won't show "$0" on them, and we'll have some new effects for all the screens on set. I would also drop the audience reaction sound effects when top value is hit since we all know this isn't a thing on the show anymore. It's just something we do at every show, we use the same sound effects when someone hits a big prize in Press Your Luck or at other shows That all being said, it's your game and you can do whatever you want with it. The animated logo does look nice, and you've really outdone yourself on the set. All of the Roblox Wheel sets I've seen are amazing. I also like that the flippers have been changed to only angle to the right instead of "swinging" left and right like in the older videos. Thanks for all the complements! We're planning on doing a few more shows before we make the new set. Perhaps we could see you there? |

I'll consider it! Though for now, I just stick to watching the YouTube videos, admittedly on double speed most of the time.

We're back! We've updated a lot of stuff (with some more updates to come soon)
Here's a video of our two most recent episodes. Maybe we'll someday have an episode where nothing goes wrong!

It's been quite a long while since I last updated this thread. We've still been doing episodes, almost every week. Our set got a decent upgrade (not the one we planned, that one is delayed until Q1 2020) and is looking better than ever! Here's a couple pictures from our Christmas episode just this Sunday.    And who says you can't joke around a bit?   (The board starts off by making Windows error noises before blue screening and resetting into a Windows XP background where a fake software package is started) We're still doing episodes on a regular basis with no sign of stopping, so if you're interested, let me know! |

I've been watching all the episodes when I find them on YouTube. Job very well done! The set is absolutely phenomenal! I love how the Wheel's base looks. As for the issue with the tiny M's and W's, are the letters premade graphics or are they "printed" in-game? If the latter, maybe find a condensed variant of the same font. I have the official puzzle board font and a condensed version that matches the show's M and W if you want them.
A few of the games have had some minor mistakes such as scoring errors, or puzzles being put in the wrong categories, bur aside from those, these are my only major nitpicks:
- Some of the trips are still under $7,000; the show raised its prize minimum this season.
- Some casual players have had their turns skipped for calling vowels after spinning. On the real show, there is no penalty for this anymore, so I think it's a bit harsh to be buzzing people for that here.
- The Triple Toss-Ups never have a theme even though that's the main gimmick of it on the real show.

I have the official puzzle board font and a condensed version that matches the show's M and W if you want them. They're "printed" in game. The font we have has wide W's and M's which is why they're tiny. If you have a better font, please PM me it!

Thanks for the feedback! - The trip prices will be raised accordingly. - I actually did not know they stopped penalizing for calling a vowel after a spin, so that'll probably change. - You'll find we have some more themed Triple Toss-Ups soon, I took a break from puzzle writing and had someone fill in for me and they must not have gotten all the ins and outs of the new stuff. As for the scoring errors and wrong category puzzles... we might have to invite a few players back! The scoring errors are most likely caused by a bug in the scoreboard code, it's been known to mess around with the final totals every now and then, but it hasn't caused too many problems that we know of, so it hasn't been fixed yet. And with some puzzles being in the wrong category, now that I'm back writing the puzzles each week, that should take care of itself. |

It's been a while! We've changed our format a little bit and I think you'll enjoy what we've done. We're now broadcasting the show LIVE on YouTube every two weeks, and we have a new host! Here's the newest episodes in our new format.
That last one is actually our April Fools episode, so you might notice a few small things here and there. Some planned, others not so planned. Let us know what you think!
