Greetings Everyone, heard from the leveling up bot that I should post here once I got member so that’s what I’m going to do. (Note this may be a long one, I tried to condense it but hopefully it’s good enough since I’m worried this will be too long)
As you may have already seen by now, my name is CoreyStar7 and I’ve always wanted to become a game programmer or game builder at some point in my life as either a hobby or even a job of sorts since I might as well use my new found hobby to it’s full potential!
I mostly found Roblox off of YouTubers who were playing quite the handful of good games back in 2016, so right after I heard about the platform I decided to create an account and I’ve been hooked ever since, however my spark for Game Development in Roblox didn’t grow until I saw places on Roblox called “Obbies”, so naturally since I was a young-ling and thought they were cool at the time I decided to give it a shot, I thought to myself how hard can it be? I mean it’s got to be very easy… I placed two huge brick cubes using the terrain tool and called it a day. Then I soon realized that maybe I don’t have the knowledge to do this yet, so when I came back to try the idea again in 2017 I finally learnt how to use Roblox Studio correctly.
After about 2 years of making very basic and bare-bones games I finally put my hand down and actually begun to learn basic coding and how professionals made games in Roblox Studio, from that sparked my first ever successful game on the platform, Sonic Xtreme Roblox. After working on that project for almost an entire year and failing to make it look good I decided to drop it for a bit and work on something else, that something else would become The Backrooms Revisited, since I became HOOKED with the entire Backrooms Concept.
As of current I’m still unsure of what my “Role” as a Game Developer would actually be, I’ve done a lot of coding recently but in my opinion I’m nowhere near as good of a programmer as I want to be, however I do a lot of building and the people who look at my creations think they are pretty good, so if I had to choose between the two it would most likely be Programmer.
I don’t really have much else to say other then I’m not sure how much I’ll be posting here, considering I have a lot of things to do in my life I can’t really talk much here and when I can, it’ll most likely to ask for help with scripting since I’m still quite new to Lua.
Thanks a bunch for reading this long introduction, it might be a little too long but I wanted to get most things covered otherwise I’d be leaving information out that would need to be there to explain everything how I’d like. See you around!
