Badimo

Badimo is a Roblox development team that is behind the creation of Jailbreak. The team is made up of badcc and asimo3089, although they have hired other creators and players from the community to help with content updates.

Overview

Badimo currently has accounts on X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and an official Discord server centered around Jailbreak.

Experiences

Badimo has created a few number of experiences on Roblox, including:

Jailbreak

Jailbreak is currently the most successful creation of Badimo. The game has won several awards[1][2][3] and has been featured by Roblox many times, such as being in a part of Roblox's Official 2020 Trailer and being featured on the icon of Roblox's iOS app. The icon also used to be on Roblox gift cards.

Jailbreak is a police-versus-criminals experience, where the player can choose to be a police officer to arrest criminals and collect their bounties, or be a criminal who robs stores and attacks police officers.

What sets Jailbreak apart from other experiences of similar genres, such as Prison Life, is the introduction of functional robberies, more unique vehicles, and a cash system and economy. The Jailbreak Wiki is centered around this game.

Badimo announced that they were going to stop doing monthly updates for Jailbreak on the 29th March, 2024. [4]

Rocketeers

Rocketeers is the newest experience created under the Badimo group that was launched on February 16th, 2024.[5] The experience was first opened on February 7th with a hangout inside in order for the game to appear in search results.[6]

Rocketeers is a Rocket Launcher fighting game with intense team combat, rocket jumping, parkour, and real time world destruction all in one place.

More info about the game can be found on the Rocketeers Wiki.

Monument of the Dead

Monument of the Dead is one of Badimo's newer experiences. It is a zombie survival/infection game, where players can mine to receive ammunition for weapons. Players must obtain "Remedium" from the Monument of the Dead, hidden away on the map, to win the game.

Monument of the Dead was supposed to be released in its Alpha stages at 5 pm EST on October 29th, 2021.[7] However, its release had been delayed[8] to November 26th, 2021 on 6pm EST/3pm PST due to an outage in Roblox that made every part of Roblox inaccessible. Its release date was later delayed again to November 27th, 2021 on 7 pm EST due to major bugs.[9]

On May 10, 2022, the game was made private until "further notice". As mentioned on the game description page, "We have fun ideas to take this project to the next level but need more time before we get back to it. Stay tuned!"

Testing Jailbreak

Testing Jailbreak is an experience made for testing Jailbreak updates. Players can test the update's content in this experience before it is released to the public in Jailbreak.

Testing Jailbreak does not receive frequent players, as they are required to be in the Jailbreak Testing Team group to gain access to the experience. At times when it is opened to the public, players do not need to spend any Robux to enter. Previously, it costs 300 to enter.

In Testing Jailbreak, players can test upcoming features, items, vehicles, etc., and give feedback before their release. Players can also take part in special events on the testing server, like the famous Underwater Jailbreak event in 2018-2019.

As of May 2021, when Testing Jailbreak is opened to the public, its servers are made free to allow the public to test certain changes and give feedback without any Robux payment, such as once on October 3rd, 2021.[10]

The experience has currently not been updated at all since August 8th, 2023 and is likely not used anymore.

Testing World 2 (Jailbreak)

Testing World 2 (Jailbreak) is also an experience made for testing Jailbreak updates. Players can test the update's content in this experience before it is released to the public in Jailbreak.

asimo3089 usually sends a link to the game on X (formerly Twitter) on either his personal account or the Badimo account. Players then click the link to join the game to participate in public testing. It is unknown if the previous testing world is still updated or not.

Access to the testing world costs TBA.

Badimo Vehicle Demo V1

Badimo Vehicle Demo V1 is an experience made for testing the Badimo car chassis. In this experience, players can drive the car through various areas with unlimited Rocket Fuel. Buying access for 26 would unlock the Checkered texture in Jailbreak, but this is no longer possible since the experience is currently closed for most players.

Conflicts

Impersonation

Badimo has been impersonated by many people to gain followers, subscribers, etc. An example is the Instagram account "virtual_badimo", which has around 1K followers. To confirm this was an impersonation account, asimo3089 tweeted that Badimo has no Instagram account (at the time),[29] nor does asimo3089 or badcc have one themselves. asimo3089 and badcc themselves have also been impersonated by other accounts on social platforms.

To prove that virtual_badimo is fake, it had a post of the Rising City at night, which showed a new City model and new cars. This was never added.

Badimo has also been impersonated on Roblox with a fake Roblox account, this account was terminated until December of 2023, when it was randomly unbanned. asimo3089 responded to a tweet saying that the account was unbanned. He responded by saying that the account was fake.[30]
