Hey guys, I joined roblox around seven years ago now, god I feel old, and started by just experimenting with the, at that point, very clunky and simplistic roblox Studio not expecting to do much development-wise. But After having left roblox for a few years I finally returned with an interest in game development having experimented on other platforms including game maker engine and GameSalad and with other scripting languages primarily Python.
I started to experiment once again with Roblox Studio finding to be a massive step up and was incredibly impressed, I started to build up my skills and two years later Iām a professional developer with A in Computer science undertaking a games design and development course at a top college.
Iām primarily a scripter as thatās really what interests me but I enjoy modelling in Blender and testing out every new roblox update as well as working in teams on games and helping others solve their scripting bugs.
Anything else you would like to include
Iām just really glad I stumbled across the platform and excited for the future.
(I was kindly accepted onto the dev forum a few weeks ago but only just got around to give an introduction, apologies.)
Havenāt done this yet, but thought I would bite.
I found out about roblox back in 2011, when I really wanted to learn how to make a game (as do for most of the old users). Also, Lego Universe shut down and I just needed a new game. (I believe @TheNexusAvenger is also did this, his current name is a reference to the game and his old name is a direct reference)
I actually just started by throwing free models in and just played around. I ended up looking on youtube for tutorials on how to script and found @Peaspod. (I had played some of his games a year prior) I later ended up learning a ton from Roblox University in 2014, and kinda learned from there. Over my time on the devforum, Iāve learned so much. Itās helped me a lot, I ended gaining new member status just because I loved reading this so much.
I hope to improve my mathematical skills, because that is really the main thing holding me back from doing really cool stuff. Iāve mainly made some amateur games, mostly in my free time because I really struggle with big projects and doing well.
Iām a Programmer, and an Amateur GFX Artist/Artist, Video Editor and Musician as well. (Iām mainly a programmer though, most of my talent comes in the sense of programming.
I really hope I get promoted to member! Also, Iām quite a bit of a web developer.
Just now taking a moment to post my intro after a few weeks on the forum.
I found Roblox from constantly seeing the pop-up ad commonly seen around the interwebs. You know, the red one with the roller coaster. I ignored the ad because I didnāt have time for gaming but have always planned to create games as an indie studio. One day I randomly saw an article about the creators of Jailbreak on a business news website (Business Insider). After reading that article and checking Youtube for Roblox vids, I realized my idea to make indie games with Valve had lost steam (I know I know).
The same day I read the Business Insider article I installed Studio and also played Jailbreak. Great game! When I realized Studio was a game all by itself I was hooked. Some nights I dream about concepts to build in Studio!
One day soon I hope to publish a fun all-ages game that everyone can play together. I want it to feel like the first time I played World of Warcraft. I was completely blown away by the immersive and beautiful world. The game seemed to have a life of its own, like another dimension. I think Roblox is headed towards that magic spot where dimensions will live and breath on servers for players to explore and dream about.
I title myself a builder because before Roblox I was building sets in 3D programs in hope of making an animated movie. Movies can wait. There is nothing more satisfying than building an actual world for people to explore!
I think as ridiculously hard as it can be at first, youāll be much happier learning ALL of the game-making skills. Even if you donāt do things by yourself, you will be a better team leader and concept creator. Learn as much as you can.
Hey, Iām Seniate. Back in 2013, I was bored and was searching for something to do on the web. I eventually came across a roblox ad and thought to give it a try. I got started with development back around in 2015, but Iām recently taking it a bit more seriously. Currently, my goals within this community is to just try to improve my knowledge as well as try to be helpful to other community members. Right now, Iām working with Scripting, GFX creation, and modeling, though mainly scripting. Iām really happy to be apart of this community.
Hey my name is AstonAceMan, or just Aston, and iāve been developing ROBLOX games for a while. I recently joined the DevForum and Iām exited to collaborate, advise, and find help for my projects on this wonderful platform. ROBLOX was introduced to me by a friend and I enjoyed playing it, however, being a programmer using Unity, Game Engine, and other engines previously i decided to give ROBLOX Studio a try. I admire the work that has been put into the engine and the LUA programming environment is really easy to understand. I would consider myself a Programmer, but i definitely enjoy building and designing models too. Anyways, thatās me! Iām exited to meet new developers on this platform and make use of the helpful Forums!
Hello there! Iām holamonamigo! Iām from Hong Kong so I believe Iām a Chinese with a bit oofed English. I found Roblox a year ago, during a visit at Imperial Confederation of the Rhine, and i was blocked outside the entrace, so I joined their army group to get access to the inner city, and this is how my Roblox career was started. I started my development career half year ago, with my friend and together we made a battle map for our Chinese military group, but it oofed eventually before the great launch. After that, Iāve been developing for several small military groups, and ranking up at big military groups arrived at MR rank. And before I was only a builder, but I polished my skills for long time and became bored of it, so I suddenly realized I can do tranlsations inspired by UG games. I currently own a translating company but I never got the chance to translate something myself. As you see, I am a builder and Localizer, but I canāt do scripting at all. THank you for reading this, hit me up if you got something funny that can make my day!
Hey Iām Mandy, I found Roblox in early to mid 2012 from my sister whose friend told her about it. I started on here with the basic building blocks, and made a runway that fell to pieces as soon you would play it . Anyway, Iāve come to a more anchored place now, as my first inspiration to actually build something was a submission for asimo3089ās Buena Vista. My current goals now, are to further my building experience, as well as designing more clothing. Iām currently studying Graphic Design now, so I hope to incorporate what I learn into my work here. Thatās about the just of it, thanks for reading.
Hello everyone! It is a pleasure to be here. I found out about the ROBLOX platform back in 2015 and ever since I have used it for many needs of building.
I first got started building on ROBLOX a few weeks after I joined when I installed Studio. I built a castle and ever since then I have been building. Sadly I have switched accounts since then.
My goals on this incredible platform. I am hoping by the end of the year to have my game complete although I might set back the release of my game for extra need. And to just set my imagination wild!
As you might have seen I am most interested in building, mostly modern cities etc.
I am a 14 year old game builder from New Zealand here on ROBLOX and I hope to see the best out of the amazing developer community.
Iād like to call myself an intermediate GFX artist and clothing designer looking to be a successful Robloxian! Iām an active player on ROBLOX that typically resides within the gameshow community.
Lastly, just wanted to say thank you for accepting me as a new member in the ROBLOX Dev Forum, and congratulations to the other members!

I love coding and I love to know how things work. When I started coding, I thought what am I going to do with this?? (Variables + Datatypes) ā Fundamentals of coding. But you donāt understand that yes, it may be boring at firstā¦ When you keep going and get at a stage where you understand and can do anything you want feels great. It also helps you understand how alot of things work and how your favorite games were made

Hello! Iād just like to say hello to this fantastic community of robloxians! Iād be grateful to give a little introduction about myself and my new addition to the developer forums.
Hello! Iām Ben, Iāve been a member of ROBLOX for just about 5 and a half years and Iām currently 16
years old. My passion for building started when I use to get taught by my friends on how to build - At first It was tricky especially starting to build around (2014 when Roblox didnāt have many essentials) However over time I gradually improved. I began to notice interest in my work in late 2017 and from there my work has been getting better and better. I hope to learn new things and present my work to all you fantastic people. My goals are to present my projects and to get feedback and also make a name for myself. My role in the community would be a builder and also a clothing designer.
. Anyway, Iāve come to a more anchored place now, as my first inspiration to actually build something was a submission for asimo3089ās Buena Vista. My current goals now, are to further my building experience, as well as designing more clothing. Iām currently studying Graphic Design now, so I hope to incorporate what I learn into my work here. Thatās about the just of it, thanks for reading.
