Retroslop is an umbrella term, most often used derogatorily within the Roblox community, to refer to avatars, games, or aesthetics that attempt to mimic Roblox, mostly from the 2007-2010 era.
While generally used as an insult, it can also be seen as a descriptive term for things that do not accurately imitate the 2007-2010 visual style of Roblox, and is not necessarily critical of retro styling in general. The “slop” part of the term indicates sloppy or careless imitation.
The term gained more usage during classic revival trends as old games and retro aesthetics became more of interest and nostalgia, but it is mostly applied in cases where something or someone that appears retro has modern elements that do not fit with the established era-specific reference.
This can include the use of items that did not exist in the era (including later or user-generated items), but can also apply to aesthetic features and stylistic choices.

"Oh great, another 2007 retroslop game. Can't even replicate the old building style."
"Rate your avatar? 2/10. Why? It's retroslop."

Get the Retroslop mug.In the Roblox game community: a game that falls under the definition of slop, while trying to also follow the retro style. Those games, aside from having the usual markers of slop / shovelware, do not use materials, instead making all parts plastic with studs (notably, studs on all sides).
A good way to tell apart a retroslop game from a regular slop or shovelware game is to examine map decorations. They will often have 0.1, 0.25, or 0.5 of a stud, as their builders are not actually familiar with the real retro style.

Get the Retroslop mug.A made up word made by people who live on Roblox targeted to people who customize retro aspects and turn them into their own idea (which is why Roblox has a catalog, to release your creativity) but it hardly disliked or made fun of, for whatever reason
