ROBLOX 2005 Recreation Project

Why are we doing this?

ROBLOX in 2005 was a different game, based around minigames with win and lose conditions rather than a 3D building game. Since this build of the client is presumed lost despite having around 100 users, we have to recreate it. We are using era-appropriate tools for this as well (Visual Studio 2005 and 2005-era compilers), as well as G3D 6.10, the era-appropriate version of the Graphics3D graphics library used by ROBLOX to this day.

Features

Equivalent to known features of 05 as it stood in October 2005 with the 'Morgan McGuire builds'
