Let’s get to the bottom of the question: where did the Roblox ‘oof’ sound come from?
The Origins of the ‘Oof’ Sound
The ‘oof’ sound that has become synonymous with Roblox actually has its roots outside the platform. This little piece of audio history first appeared as a damage sound effect in a 2000 game called Messiah. Developed by Shiny Entertainment, Messiah featured this distinct sound whenever the main character took damage.
