Recreating an older game for a newer engine

This game was the first of three Roblox games I made during
summer 2021. It's based on a much older Roblox game I used to
play a lot when I was younger. Unfortunately, as the original game
was made in 2010 and not frequently updated, much of the game is
is currently broken. Wanting to play the game again as it originally
was, I recreated it myself to work with the newer Roblox updates.
It was a lot of work studying the old game to get all the colors
and measurements as close as possible to the original. Some updates
have made some of the original aspects impossible to perfectly reproduce,
but I used a few tricks to get the tools and some parts to work like
old Roblox.
The tools aren't entirely programmed by me. I used some old
tools freely available as models in Roblox Studio as a starting
point and did my best to get them to work with modern Roblox.
I learned a lot about Lua and Roblox Studio during this project,
and the game is now apparently my most popular project yet with
over 1.5K visits.
