Introduction thread for new forum members

1. How did you find Roblox?
I started playing way back in 2011 or 2012 (can’t quite remember unfortunately) and I believe I found it from an online ad off a different MMO game.

2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
After playing for over 4 years on roblox, I began work on a capture the flag game back in 2016, but I was a horrid builder and had no scripter/knew how to script.

3. Current goals/achievements on the platform.
I’m currently working on a project called “Fishing Life”. The game is nearly out of Alpha and I’d appreciate if you check out the game sometime!

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

Currently new here, just wanted to say, like TheShipArchitect, I have been trying to get in for a long time.

My name is Latrell158, and my personality is…well, let’s just say I like reactor cores.

I discovered Roblox around in mid-2016 (cannot remember ._.) while I was looking for a nice looking game. I only used mobile devices back then.

After around 2 years, I began working on a sandbox game, but I was a terrible builder and did not know how to script.

Currently, I have no goal as of right now, but you can suggest some.

My role is Basic Builder and Basic Scripter.

Took a while, but finally made it in.

Hey there, my name is Aptable.

I was introduced to Roblox by my brother almost 7 years ago. I started on mobile but eventually figured out that it’s much better on PC. About a year into it, I began playing around in Studio with free models and I made a few of my first games out of it. They weren’t much, but I enjoyed doing it.

My goal is to grow my community as large and as strong as possible. My greatest achievement so far has been co-leading a large roleplay community. I primarily build, but I also do a little clothing design.

I hope to be a great addition here, thanks!

I have played Roblox since 2014 and been interested for a quite a while in roblox game development/studio. I have been practicing for over a year and half, and now making my own games. I’m pretty bad at modeling/building, but it still doesn’t stop me.

My current goal is 100,000 visits in total. I’m gonna try to hit that number no matter how long it takes. Right now I’m 10% from the goal.

Hopefully i will help somebody here and collaborate with someone sometime. :handshake:

hello, nice to see you all.

in fifth grade, a friend of mine introduce Roblox to me, I wasn’t really interested in it until I try it in 6th grade. I started developing because I have lots of game ideas that I want to create myself. so far I make several games and made some models, and my role in the developer community is builder cause I love to build.

Hey! I’m a bit new to the Roblox devforum, actually, a bit new to forums in general, and personally been really trying to become a member of the devforum community. :laughing:

My username is “VirtualWorkclock,” I’m a bit of a fan of the “Workclock” accessories on Roblox, thus I came up with “Virtual” and “Workclock”…haha. Anyway, with the introduction out the way, I guess I’ll get into how I started my journey on Roblox. I’d say back when I was around 10, I stumbled upon an advertisement on the side of a flash-game website. “ROBLOX. IT’S FREE” My little 10-year-old self saw the words “Free” and “Multiplayer,” which instantly hooked me in.

Many years went by, and I began messing around with Roblox Studio as it kinda reminded me of building legos, thus I began becoming a builder. I guess that’s a good point to say that I’m a builder / 3D modeler for Roblox games.

After messing around with building, and feeling as though I was beginning to improve more and more, day by day, I decided to take it on myself to attempt working for other developers in the Roblox community, and someday make a game that people will enjoy. Just as much as I enjoy playing games made by other players.

This leads me to my biggest, and most anxious goal of all; creating a game that not only makes the people playing it enjoy the game but also brings players together. Cliche, but it’s honestly what I enjoy seeing the most, people around me enjoying the things I feel very passionate about, which is, of course, building, modeling, and creating games.

  1. How did you find Roblox?
    I was at one of my friends houses one day and he suggested In get roblox because of this game called Sharkbite. I did and it was a ton of fun!
  2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
    I have always had an interest in computer science and figured out that you could make games on roblox! I decided to learn Lua and then started.
  3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
    My goal in the community is to create a fun game that have a decent amount of players.
  4. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
    I am a programmer because I am not the greatest at art.

Hello, I’m YeetSnacks

  1. How did you find ROBLOX?
    I found it when my dad had a friend that told him about the game, I didn’t like it so I uninstalled it. In 1st or 2nd grade I found this cool video and wondered what game it was, and it was ROBLOX. So I re-installed it and have been playing it since.

  2. Why did you start developing?
    I found this cool game and decided, I will be a developer!

  3. What is your goal right now?
    To make a popular game with NO scripts (except admin scripts)
    To be a popular YouTuber (My channel is Yeet Peeps, check it out here)

  4. What is your role in the community?
    A builder or game tester.

  5. Other things you would like to include?
    Let me see… I think I do.
    You know how I said to make a game with no scripts? It’s this one: Mr. Noob's World! [OPEN ALPHA!] - Roblox

(Please not that the links I put in are NOT advertisements, they are mentrions.)

Hey people! So at the time of making this comment I am RichJackhammer but I go by Hammur on other social media platforms.

  1. I found Roblox a couple years back maybe in 2015 and i played as a guest for 2 years until I made my first accound, NiceStuntman, in 2016. I made this account shortly after losing the password to the first so yeah. I use this now.

  2. This summer I got into contact with an old best friend of mine and shortly after speaking with him he brought the idea to me of bringing games to Roblox.

  3. I’m kinda in this for the fame and to bring games I want to this platform since I know that nobody else know what I exactly want. If you want something done right and perfect you do it yourself.

  4. I am a pretty fine builder and I am learning programming and UI.

  5. I am the leader of Build N Blox, which is the game development group me and my friend made. Our slogan goes…“Build N Games from our Build N Blox!”

Hello there! My username is I_AmBobHello, well… I joined ROBLOX in 2016 (in another account) and I found ROBLOX because my favorite YouTuber in these times was uploading ROBLOX videos. I started to create games in 2017 (in another account) for fun, I created some obby games and a different type of game in rare occasions. Well… My current goal is making games for the people and for entertainment, and my role in the developer community is ‘Builder’ because I love to build my games! I just want to say that these last years making games were great, I will still making games because I love doing that :slight_smile:

Salutations! I’m new to the Roblox DevForum, and I’ve honestly been trying to get into this amazing community for quite a while now, probably a few months. I am looking forward to posting more innovation to the building/graphics designing community.

Hi, Guys I’m so excited to be apart of devforum!! I found roblox in 2014 and loved playing it. Then I Joined Hidden developers in 2016 to try to make my own game!

  1. I found out about Roblox from a friend of mine back in (I want to say 2014?) and decided to join the platform in 2016.

  2. I started developing on the Roblox Platform after seeing advertisements for groups and games such as cafes, hotels, etc., which inspired me to create my own art and games for myself.

  3. Some of my current goals and achievements on the platform are to create a successful game. (I’ve already started this goal, should be releasing to Alpha in late November / early December.)

  4. My current role in the developer community is making GFX. I also build quite often and sometimes create UI designs.

  5. I am MayFlow_r, (15), and I’m excited to join the developer forum and hope to improve my work and help others improve their work!

Hey, another new member here. I’m Ontrox358, and I was introduced to Roblox by my brother about a year ago when he asked me for some programming help on a game he was making. After giving him some pointers (I’m a full-time software engineer), he ended up coming to me for more advice and help on other projects. In March of 2020, he came to me with a game idea and asked if I thought it was doable, and we ended up working on that game together and released it in beta the first of this month (October 2020). The timing was poor, as Among Us had just gained popularity, and our game has a fairly similar premise. We were just too slow, so a lot of people dismiss it as an Among Us knock-off.
My current goals on the platform are just to keep making games with my brother. It’s a fun hobby, and hopefully other people can have fun with what we create, too. My only achievement so far has been the game we created and released in Beta, but we have other projects in the works and are continuing to update our first.
My role is programmer. I’m not great at design or anything like that, but I can program pretty well.
If you’d like to see the first game I keep referring to, it’s called Maniac and is available here: https://www.roblox.com/games/4890854592/Maniac-BETA?refPageId=f9ef59a9-463b-44c7-9da2-3c9191dde261
