Introduction thread for new forum members

Hello!

I found Roblox in around 2014, and played as a guest, up until 2016. This is my second account, so that join date will say 2020.

I started developing when games like Arsenal or Epic Minigames inspired me.

My goal is to make a game with mostly custom-made scripts and buildings (including UIs) that will get lots of visits without botting, and I hope that people will like that game if it ever comes out.

My role(s) are: Builder, Programmer, and sometimes a UI designer.

If you would like to contact me, please use Discord. My name is heyimcoop
My DMā€™s are open, so contact me whenever!

And thatā€™s all.
I am honestly proud of myself for even reaching this stage of development, where I get access to the devforum, It took me about 3-4 months to get in. :sweat_smile:

Edit: this game of mine is coming into existenceā€¦ be patient, and it will be released! The only thing Iā€™m saying right now is itā€™s called City Z.

Well, hey yā€™all. Iā€™m new to the Developer Forum. Iā€™ve finally been promoted to Member, and now I can finally ask my questions here, help others, and maybe occasionally even showcase my work.

Iā€™ve been playing Roblox ever since it came out (my current main account isnā€™t the first one Iā€™ve made). After being on the platform for years as a kid, I figured it would be cool to develop on it as a person whoā€™s grown more and has new interests and knowledge.

My goal is to create enjoyable games for people on the platform, just as I have enjoyed many games on this platform! In terms of my role in the developer community, Iā€™m good at programming and pretty bad at building :joy: . I also program outside of Roblox and Lua; I mainly program in Python, C++, and a little bit of JavaScript. Programming is a hobby I have. Anyone is free to reach out to me if they have any questions about programming! I look forward to working with this community :grin:

Hello, I first learned about Roblox through memes but then I learned that there is so much power given to the players in what they can create. I started development on Roblox because of my brother and have been able to accomplish a lot of fun stuff. My current goal is to develop and publish a full game to Roblox. Most of my experience is in programming and design, but I am currently focusing on the programming side of Roblox. I hope I can learn everything I can from here and become a better Roblox programmer, and hopefully help others reach similar goals! :happy1:

  • How did you find Roblox?

I donā€™t really rememberā€¦ But it was around 2017. (Yes i joined lateā€¦)

  • How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?

Around 2018 i leaved Roblox and made my own thing, i tryed a lot of hobby like scripting, designing, making music, ectā€¦ (Kinda everything) But what i finally take, was designing. Around 2020 (With the confinment) i came back to Roblox , and since that, i canā€™t leave, i play everyday and meet new people, but i also discovered things about development recently. And, like i was designing, i tryed to make Roblox themed design, and it work good! Itā€™s also why iā€™v a different style than other designer in Roblox.
One month ago i tryed to build because itā€™s something i like too, so i learned the basic, also how to make mesh and texture with blender and photoshop, so today am not really good, but at least iā€™v the basic. Also i tryed to script in python 1 or 2 years ago but finally it was something i never like, itā€™s why it took me a lot of time to finally begin to learn the lua, but since 1 week, am learning lua kinda everyday, and finally i really like it.

  • Current goals/achievements on the platform

My goal in the Roblox platform is to become a real Roblox designer and building my future (in some way), i also want to create my own game for people to have fun.

  • What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)

I am Graphic Designer specialize in 2D (Photoshop, Illustrator) , but i know the basic of the 3D (Blender, C4D). Iā€™v really basic builder skills, and am learning the scripting.

  • Anything else you would like to include

I actually live in Spain, and i speak 3 language (French, Spanish and English).

Hi there!

  1. How did you find Roblox?
    I found Roblox in 2015 by watching some YouTubers at that time recording themselves testing fire alarm systems on Roblox at that time. I wanted to also try it out, so that is where I made my first account on the Platform, where I entered a Pinewood HQ leaked game (at the time I didnā€™t know how any Roblox community even worked at all) that had Tekknik FiroTronic systems from that time period. Needless to say, I enjoyed the experience, and I wanted to see if I could do anything else on this platform. However, that account was really used for two days. Since I forgot the password to that account, I kept making other accounts without even remembering those passwords. Finally, in September 2015, I finally was able to make an account that I would remember the password to, which of course was this account that I use every day. Even the username has been unchanged ever since I made this account! Come to think of it, my introduction to Roblox was a whole rollercoaster ride.

  2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
    In late-2015, I noticed that on my computer was a program called Roblox Studio. I opened it and I figured that I could utilize Roblox to make anything in my imagination. I tried it out with every single thing inside the game being a free model. However, as I started learning a bit more throughout the years, I began starting to modify uncopylocked games based on my knowledge of game development on the platform. However I realized how unoriginal that was in very late times, so I started abandoning many modified uncopylocked games, and starting in late-2018, I would start making buildings purely from scratch, and starting in late-2019, I finally started learning Lua as a beginner.

  3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
    Currently, I own a group called CascadeDevelopment, which was founded in late-2015, and had started shaping itself in early-2016. Today, CascadeDevelopment (or CDEV, now PointCove or POCE) owns many franchises, like Stockroom Shops Mall, Royal Sunset Hotels, and XTS SecuriFi. Back in CDEVā€™s (now PointCove) early days, there werenā€™t a lot of people working in it, really it was just me and another person working on things sometimes. Now, weā€™ve expanded our workforce to a lot of people, mainly from the Fire Alarm and Elevator community. Those people are scattered from the main group to the franchises that CDEV (now PointCove) owns. Some of the goals Iā€™m aiming towards is to have CDEV (now PointCove) and its franchises reach a large audience, becoming a better scripter and builder, and aiming to make a lot of partnerships through the main CDEV (now PointCove) group and its franchises with a lot of known groups on Roblox (like Frappe).

  4. What is your role in the developer community?
    It really seems like that Iā€™m in the middle of scripting things and building stuff, so if I were to go specific, I wouldnā€™t really be sure since I script and build at the same time when working on projects on Roblox.

  5. Anything else you would like to include
    Sure! Iā€™m really looking forward to progress even more as Iā€™m headed towards the future, and I really hope that one day that my ideas and other peopleā€™s ideas in CascadeDevelopment (now PointCove) will succeed as time passes.

Thanks for putting me into consideration for this forum! I hope to start making progress with not just CDEV (now PointCove), but with everyone else in related communities.

Hello Fellow Devā€™s and Interested people.

Iā€™m new to roblox lua. Learning the fundamentals after coming across a few prominent channels showing the ability of Roblox as a game engine. Iā€™ve currently made a few scripts that work but iā€™m not a fluent coder just yet. Iā€™ve managed to play with raycasting, datastores, forloops, in engine modeling and a bit of blender. There is so much to learn and i really look forward to expanding my knowledge.

My role is to develop models and script in a solo project im working on. I would love to gain access to connections i could shoot questions and collaborate with closer than the wider forum available in the future. This is the best place to start that journey so iā€™m told.

Iā€™m currently working on figuring out how to do a First person camera view. Wish me luck!

I found roblox watching a friend play it

I got started with development not long after playing a few roblox games, I then found roblox studio and found an Interest In Developing.

I want to be able to make popular games on roblox that many roblox players will play, I want to have a great game that every likes.

My role in the developer community is Programmer, I find Programming very Interesting, Iā€™ve taken a liking to and still do after about 3 years of Programming.

Hello,

Iā€™ve been on Roblox for about 5 years. Originally I found Roblox from a YouTuber and decided to try it out. However, the first time I started engaging in Roblox Studio began in 2019 with my friend. We used to hang out at an F3X game and build all sorts of things back then. Then, in 2020 I started to engage with Studio almost everyday. I havenā€™t worked on any big projects as of right now, however I am planning on making a few games in the future. Also, Iā€™m mostly a Builder but, I am also learning to model and script. Iā€™m also fairly new to Forums but, I hope to be a big part of Roblox Developer Community, someday.

Thanks,
wereallgoofygoobers6.

I found Roblox just on the internet around 12 years ago and was interested by the fact that games were and still are made by users, for users. That was the moment that I joined in on the fun. At this time, I also wanted to make games, but got distracted by close combat instead :sweat_smile:. Although now, I have currently kept developing a side-project of mine which I have been continuing to do so for many years.
Iā€™m proud on having earned the achievement of atleast 100 victories in combat back in 2015, but furthermore there arenā€™t much achievements I have officially achieved.
Being the person I am, I want to achieve more. Therefore I would like to be part of a succesful game which I have partly, or even fully developed and take that as achievement.
Back to my original goal of becoming a user wanting to make games for other users; I wanted to cover most areas in the field of game development, so I could one day be my own project manager and hire other people to create a project, though with a knowledge base on all roles. So you could say Iā€™m a jack-of-all trades :grin:, but I mostly invest my time in programming as it is most interesting to me how you could get the same result with different formulas, and how programming is a major part of making the game run smooth and be 70% of the game, albeit it not being a showcase.

Yours truly,
Matthew

Hello Iā€™m Dyorre and Iā€™m new here. I found Roblox like 4 years ago. I began getting interested in developing this year. Itā€™s my dream to become a developer and get well known in this community. Right now Iā€™m a translator and I already translated couple games.

Hi ! Iā€™m Cloudly and im really glad to be a part of the developer community in Roblox.
I got finally accepted !

Im currently 15 years old and i played Roblox since i was about 8.5 years old (a long time). I found it when i was bored, so i decided to scroll through YouTube and i saw it !

It was a year ago when i decided to start making Roblox GFX. A lot of my friends did them and i really liked it + i had the feeling that i gotta use my creative brain into something like that, so i did.

Im looking forward to being friends with anyone. Any collaborations, team works are deeply appreciated <3 x.

Sincerely, Cloudly

Hi everybody,
Despite my profile name iā€™m not really a pirate :wink:. Instead Iā€™m a volunteering instructor in a Danish association called Coding Pirates. Coding Pirates goal is to introduce youngsters to computer programming and IT in general.

At one of our weekly meetings the kids in my local group introduced me to Roblox, with a wish to develop their own games. This started my venture into Roblox game development. My Goal is to learn Roblox, sufficiently well, so I will be able to help and assist the young people creating their own games.

Thanks for accepting me into to the developer community.

Hello, my name is Edward. The way I discovered Roblox was when I was looking through app store apps, I saw that Roblox was popular so I simply downloaded it. I began to play some games for a while and I never seemed to get bored. There was always another game waiting to be explored. One day I asked to borrow my fatherā€™s computer, he said yes. I downloaded roblox onto it and I noticed it also downloaded Roblox studio. So I opened it up and realized I could make my own game. I didnā€™t know how to so anything at all, other than place bricks down and size them so I started looking up tutorials on YouTube. I am still a beginner but I use the developer forum for help. I am a builder, but I am learning how to program. Hopefully in a year or so I will be good at what I do.

I started on Roblox in 2016. My friend wanted to me to play with him, so I decided I should try it out. Here I am four years later, and Iā€™m still addicted!
I was very interested in how games were developed, and at first I was wanting to be a scripter, but I felt more comfortable and happy when I was building.
Some goals I want to achieve are, becoming a successful developer, getting known in the community, and becoming a building professional.
My current role is a builder.
If you want to learn more about me or even hire me, just add me on discord: IcyXue#5473.
