The Nostalgic History of Shovelware Studios 

now this is truly a shovelware classic #shovelsweep if you enjoyed that video, then feel free to watch this one here about BIG Games! (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-c33qEfgXFFk.html)

i genuinely feel so bad for anyone who didnt play the original games. They deserve all their success.

Shovelware Studios was the best childhood I could've asked for and I wish nothing but the best for them in the future :]

shovelware studio was full of nostalgia obbies, and it was the main reason why i like obbies. can’t wait to see more games from them

Find your dad obby EDIT:lilan I hate you for creating my hell of saying went milk Edit 2:bro HOW TF I GOT 190 LIKE also new obby "find your adoption paper obby"

Being a part of Roblox since 2016, This entire group was my childhood. I'm surprised how close together all the games release dates were

I love how they went from making literal shovelware obbies to EXTREMELY good games

I'd just like to point out that the Spongebob one is the first obby by Dogon, the owner of Shovelware Studios, made in 2015 called "The Spongebob Movie Adventure Obby", which he then reuploaded onto the group.

I’m so sad everyone stopped watching you after you stopped making the RB battles videos your genuinely so talented and I hope someone reacts to more of your videos so they rise in popularity because you genuinely deserve it.

most of the games were taken down due to copyright reasons but i loved them because in the “ditch school and get rich” obby i loved the star wars level it was so much fun

Shovelware carried my entire Roblox childhood and a few years later I found this group that archived the games and I played through them all again and felt the happiness I once felt years ago. Truly amazing

the amount of work u put into this... proud of u man! keep it up

I joined Roblox in March 2018, Shovelware's obbies were one of the first obby games I ever played, this is so nostalgic for me because I used to love the obbies so much when I was younger, but around Early 2019, I started to drift away, because I played many other obstacle type games that I was so obsessed with, such as: the Flood Escape Series + FE2 Fangames (Early 2018 - Late 2019), The Doom Wall 2 Burst (2018 - 2019) and many, many more which drove me away from Shovelware, and I forgot about them until in 2022 when I saw the group removing old obbies on YT. I was devastated, but I was happy when they made a comeback just earlier this year! I'm giving special thanks to Shovelware for shaping my childhood.

I’m just happy that after the takedown of the obbys they were able to find new success.

I played all of Shovelware's games to death, I'm glad they've been reuploaded for others to play them for the first time

Any of y'all remember brick bronze?

One thing I will mention is that the older games were recently given a bigger boost in popularity because of a RU-vid Shorts and TikTok trend taking place in the obbies. I love this video a lot and it made me nostalgic for old Shovelware Games! 🥲

This studio gave me so much nostalgia, i remember watching Ethan gamer play this and then me trying to complete the obby myself, good times. Seeing the team getting more popularity makes me extremely happy.

bro got that fortnite accent

Man I will never forget their obbys, the SpongeBob, and cars was so innovative. I played every one of their obbys. I’m glad to see them thrive again.

Ditch school to get rich is literally the first game ive ever played in roblox after seeing this video a huge nostalgia just hit my brain and it makes me sad that my first roblox game that i played is not playable. I joined roblox around the rthro era, and i didnt know how to change camera with keyboard since im like 7 when i played the obby

Nice that you included my Goldware Games group in the video! The rest of the video was great as well!

God i remember playing despicable forces aLOT on my old xbox one Brings back so many memories

sovle wor stubios 🤤

You make me cry whit a lot of nostalgia 😢

This was an amazing video and amazing editing :)

Those shovelware obbies were so peak. It was sad how they removed them. Luckily, people have reuploaded them to be preserved.

I remember playing the silly obbies about captin underpants so much times and never got tired if it. Nostalgia hits hard

0:45 “WELCOME TO MY OBSTACLE COURSE. HUHUHUHUHUHUHUHH” ahhh clip

Nostalgia

Good history lesson! I didn't know about their lesser known titles, minus that I might have played one of them not knowing it was by them.

This is very nostalgic, and this is coming from a 2014 roblox player.

You forgot to say that spongebob movie DX directors cut as I understand a Sonic Adventure DX directors cut fan-game, and despicable forces is a Sonic Forces fan-game, but I think everyone know that

Brooo..the nostalgia of playing the captain underpants obby..JEEEZ

2-3 weeks of waiting was worth it (i didnt watch it yet but looks cool)

As a player from 2017 i want to go back in time so much

I’ve played all the obbies when i was new to Roblox. When I saw they were back with shovelware’s brain game, I was overfilled with joy and played it instantly. I automatically remembered all of the games and memeories I made in shovelwares games. If shovelware sees this, thank you.

Wow, truly a beautiful video! Great work as always!

Something that wasn’t mentioned was that I believe they also made a Nintendo (primarily) role play game. I remember playing it and seeing a Shovelware Studios pop-up. After searching on RU-vid, the game seems pretty obscure. Though, I could be wrong. It was pretty high quality!

I think another reason why shovelware studios took off in popularity was that there weren’t that many good Obbys in Roblox back in 2017/2018. I mean, there were was tower of hell and a few others, but most lobbies were just free model garbage with products shoved at you every stage. Shovelware was different, had actual effort put into it, and stood out from the rest of the obby genre on Roblox as it wasn’t too difficult for new players like tower of hell is.

Shovelware's Brain Game came before Super Slime Simulator.

5:03 That happen me with someting like killing minions and that made me very scard and i was crying

As someone who actually played their obbeys as a kid i am so glad they returned

Team Denis. Team Ethan Gamer. Team Fgteev. Team Sketch. 👇

the way he said story at 0:47 made me laughing on the ground XD

I remember shovel shovelware studios making a game for bfdi.

i just played shrunken school obby and i was confused why it felt so familiar, and i was amazed at how well made the game was. i spent hours after playing all the associated shovelware games ,,, it’s so cool to hear about their history now! thanks

8:02 BFDI REFERENCE! 1!1!1!1!1 (this is a joke)

I remember playin the captain underpants obby

I loved shovelware studios’ games when I was younger, I remember when I used to log on every day during summer and start off my 10+hr Roblox sessions with one of their games. My favorite being Ditch School to Get Rich and the Captain Underpants games. They’re truly a gem in the Roblox community

This is truly a blast to the past

I remember albertstuff playing this :D

We can definitely see the amount of work you put into this video

Shovelware Studios is one of the roblox classics. memories.

I'm genuinely so sad the games got deleted, they were my childhood

I remember playing the captain underpants 2 obby, the loads of people collenting candy from houses, that one section where you were hiding from the black figure (i had nightmares after that) and all the other sections of the game. But now, in the re-upload its totally different, almost no servers, only like one other person collecting candy from the houses, being the only one hiding from the figure. It just feels so melancholy, or like a source map.

i rember playing the shit out of the spongebob obby.

6:57 I think it’s meant to be key -in just say Key with a in at the end Keyin that’s how it is

I remember playing the minions obby with my brothers

i still remember the whole shovelware obby universe story lol

It's weird seeing shovelware studios grow considering I was around during its starting creation back when Dogon was making the Paper Mario Roleplay games, and actually interacted with Dogon a lot during events on those games.

Took a while to make the video but that means more time to polish it, which makes it better. Quality, not quantity.

Being a roblox player since december 2015, this gives a positive feeling, the nostalgia of this obbies that i would play with my bigger cousin, and a friend that i lost contact with, this is and will, be amazing

And here we are, Shovelware Runners bringing back Ditch School to get Rich obby only for it to be overused for the first stage for the annoying repetitive “Running Out of Time” song.

why do you sound like pie from bfb

THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE THE GAMES IN SHOVELING RUNNERS ARE LEGENDS FOR BRINGING BACK THE OLD GAMES!! THEY WILL BE KNOWN FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE FOR THIS!!!!

Man i miss these older obbies

Amazing video bro keep up the good work!

History may not return. But got a replacement thats more famous. Called.SHOVELWARE BRAIN GAME!!!!. Genuinely felt bad for the children who haven’t experienced og obbies.

Amazing Video as always, Keep up the amazing work :D

Damn didn't know that they created the lobby the I used to enjoy they have come a long away which put a smile on my face :)

2:36 Bro i looked to find this game which was my FIRST ROBLOX BADGE EVER. I watched this video to find this game but finally i did

The first Game 'Captain Underpants Obby' Wasn't based off the Book. It was based on the Movie when it came out.

i wasn't there for their glory days but even just knowing shrunken school obby as just "shrunken school obby" i could tell they knew what they were doing. it's kind of sad i'll never be able to see their other games, though anyways how dare you dl-6 jumpscare me on a video about silly roblox games i'm about to cry /lh (and on the topic of music not to be That Guy but if anyone can tell me what the song played after that is i'd love to know thank you very very much)

Whoever didn’t play their early games during their early years I genuinely feel bad as that time was legendary

Played: Escape The Minions, Stop PoopyPants Adventure, The Cars obby (idk what's it name now), Spongebob Movie adventure Deluxe. and Shovelware's brain game.

Shovelware Studios Had My Fav Obbies at the Age of 7 but at the Age of 9 Depression Started When I Heard About Shovelware Being DMCA'd I Played FNF Mario's Madness Alone Instrumental Just for Depression

spooky pants and spongebob ones were, as harold from the show said a bunch of times, SOOO GOOD, 3:36 SANTA MECH TYCOON WAS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I FORGOT ABOUT IT BUT IT WAS MY FAVORITE despicable forces was really good but I couldnt get past the minion with getar boss.

Their old games were literally my childhood, man.

Early!

I love how Spongebob Adventure DX is based on Sonic Adventure: DX and Despicable Forces is based on Sonic Forces.

The ditch school obby 😭😭

0:56 :D

I remember the old shovelware studio games but as i growed up i forgot them but when shovelwares brain game came out i remembered them they made my childhood so i owe alot to them thanks to the team for making my child hood the best

“Uhm actually the stop professor poopypants obby is based off the fourth book in the Captain underpants series.” ☝️🤓

the captain underpants and despicable forces are one of the best games i’ve played on roblox. i was so sad when they reworked all the games.

I started since 2016 or 17 because my cousin recommended me the game now that group was peak perfectoin

update: shovelware games recently made a roleplay game that bring all the shovelware characters to one game and if roleplaying isnt your thing you can go the cafe and play some clup penguin inspired minigame

Make Stronk cat in a nutshell

Cool video

i remember playing these games growing up. these were so god damn fun. i'm so happy they've come back!

I need the name of the music at 4:56

I remember playing shovelware games in 2018 when i first joined ROBLOX, i played the captain underpants game first. I played the game hundreds of times. its super Nostalgic

Raido:GUYS IF YOUR HEARING ITS BANANA IS EVIL....What he coming.....radio end

Thank you. i Was looking for shovelware studios games of my childhood, But i didnt knew the name, I was starting to lose hope of getting my childhood back, And i forgot. Some months after i saw this video, And i remembered all, Now i know the name of ''Despicable Forces''. Thanks.

what is the song at 4:35❓

I played the old games back then and wow........ THOSE GAMES LOOK AMAZING

Never heard of em'

I really enjoyed their old fangames. Bought most of the gamepasses. At first the new IP and characters looked really soulless and bland to me but if you play around, you will find that they are actually really good, even if they dont have any backstory or depth to them. The humor is enjoyable, as well. "Behold, the DMCA Takedown!" Anyway, really good video.

i like how he mentioned the Despicable Forces error screen
