How to Recreate a Roblox Build Game After Studio Editing Removes Its Build Status
You cannot restore Build status to that edited version. Use the saved Build prompt history and your captured behavior notes to recreate a new Build version, then decide whether to remain in Build or treat Studio as the permanent production branch.

Know what cannot be reversed
Roblox explicitly says Build status removal after Studio editing cannot be undone for that version. Recovery therefore means recreating, not converting the Studio version back.
Rebuild from the earliest stable description
Start from the prompt that established the correct core loop, not from a long sequence of cosmetic follow-ups. Then replay only the follow-ups that changed behavior or tuning you still care about.
Compare behavior, not pixel identity
The recreated version may not be identical. Verify the rules: player action, scoring, spawn behavior, failure, progression, and key pacing values. Use your recorded playthrough or notes as the reference.
Avoid repeating the handoff accidentally
Before editing the recreated Build version in Studio, decide which branch is authoritative. If Studio is now the production path, keep Build only as a prototype/reference. If you need Build's prompt loop, do not touch that new Build version in Studio.
Working template
RECREATE FROM BASE PROMPT: [...] BEHAVIOR-CHANGING FOLLOW-UPS: [...] SKIP COSMETIC FOLLOW-UPS: [...] VERIFY: action / score / fail / progression / pacing AUTHORITATIVE BRANCH AFTER RECREATE: Build | Studio.
