Introduction thread for new forum members

Hey there! My name’s kappyta_n and I’ve been playing ROBLOX ever since 2013, maybe even 2012 as a guest.

I found ROBLOX from a former friend in Facebook, where he usually shared about the games he played in ROBLOX. This genuinely interested me as he looked like he’s having fun with the platform. To be honest, developing in ROBLOX didn’t click for me - maybe because I was dumb child with developing brain at that time - but when I played games with maps or showcase games, it somewhat inspired me to build and build I did - well tried to build prior to 2017 - and slowly but surely, I improved by helpful members in the site! My current goal is push myself and the engine to the limits so I could build beautiful worlds and places for people to see! I mainly do building, but I would like to try other things like scripting, modeling and etc. Also I have a building group that I just made recently called “Anchored Association”.

1. How did you find Roblox?
I found the platform around 2014-2015. I believe I found it through an ad or appstore lol.

2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
I’ve played video games from a very young age and always wanted to design my own, and have been attempting to script, build, etc. since I first found the platform (of course, I was young at the time and only used free models, and only seriously started developing in the past year or two).

3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
I’m hoping to get into UGC, and design a game.

4. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc.)
I design GFX’s, make UGC concepts, and I’m learning to script/model.

5. Anything else you would like to include
Of course my username is Crazee_Monkee, but you can call me Jay!

Thanks for reading my introduction!

Hello! I’m JeiBlue and I like to do a little bit of everything, whether it be scripting, building, texture creation, making clothing, and well you get the idea.

I found out about Roblox through a friend of mine around 2010, and have stuck around ever since albeit on a different account now. I started developing around 2013 with some small builds and messing around with free models for scripts. Right now I’m just trying to improve on what I already know and get better at scripting specifically, but I’ve worked as almost every type of role in the community, the things I’m best at though are in this order: building, scripting, UI/logo design, and clothing. It’s nice meeting you all and hope we can help each other out in the future!

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!

Hello! I’m shreder856 or just shred for short. I was 8 when I first found Roblox looking for a game to play (I had found one called block land first I think but it was trash so I found this!) I have been playing since 2008 and am a veteran on Roblox but a noob on this site LOL. I have never been intrested in development-ish until now but I am looking more to assemble a team and see myself as a creative vision for my project(s) currently I am planning a high school roleplay type game called Atlantis High that hopefully can rival Royal high some day :persevere:

Thanks for reading and accepting me ^~^

keycount here,

I don’t have any huge goals right now beyond learning and developing my skills. Eventually, however, I hope to make a few projects for my portfolio and maybe even a small game for my friends to enjoy; it’s always been a dream I’ve had. :sparkles:

  1. It has been a while, I do not actually remember how I’ve found roblox, I’ve changed my account, I normally joined to roblox in 2014

  2. My friends helped me learn how to program on roblox, then I started learning blender to make 3D models, that’s how I’ve beginned. I aswell can program C Sharp. (EDIT: I started programming about 4 years ago.)

  3. I want to be a lot better at programming rLua, that’s my goal.

  4. Programmer mainly.

Greetings I’m SWARMHOST77

I’m currently working on a medieval group as a head dev. I started my developer career about 2 or 3 years ago with longbows. I wish to learn more and more ways to script to provide the best experience that in the future the medieval genre will be as big as ones such as the Napoleonic genre. I used to think developing was a free way to get robux but I was sorely mistaken but instead I dropped my initial incentive of greed and follow my passion of scripting and making immersive and innovative tech for the medieval genre. I know I will get there one day!

Thanks for having me and I hope I cant interact with others in the future :sunglasses:

Hello everyone!

I’ve been reading through DevForum, and getting to know the ins & outs of ROBLOX Development, as well as stories of your successes, and failures that have been learned from! It’s so nice to finally be able to join everyone!

Anyways, I’m pizzaguy1211 (I know, cheesy name; pun intended?), which leads me into my second piece! I’ve been using ROBLOX, and enjoying the platform for about 4 years, and just started getting into development about 3 weeks ago. I was interested in developing a game, and decided it was best to have some knowledge, instead of just hiring people to do the work :joy:. I’ve been mostly interested in scripting, and on the platform today to learn more, get assistance, and find fellow developers! I guess you could say I’m a programmer, but that’s undetermined, and still exploring the possibilities!

My communications are always open, however not really commissions, as I’m still getting up to that level! You can contact me on the following platforms;

Hii! First, I am so glad to be apart of the forum and be here with so many great developers.

I found roblox because I was looking for a game to have fun with my friends and express my ideas. I got started with development because I saw so many amazingly developed games and I wanted to try to make my own. My goals are to find a dev team to express my idea in making the game of my dreams. My role in the developer community is GFX maker, "Builder, Community Manager, and I’m learning how to script. I just wanna include a thank you to all the amazing devs in this community.

Hi everyone! I’m Andrew. I am so happy that I was accepted into the DevForum. Let’s keep this short and simple, so what can I do?

  • I am a Programmer, I am quite experienced in Lua! I hope to showcase some of my work soon.

  • I am a 3D artist too, quite recently I’ve been spending a lot of time on increasing my knowledge within this area.

Hieee I’m ChildCries and I’ve been playing roblox for almost 2 years now!
My friend told me about this great game and recommended me to make a account for my own.
I’ve met great people so far! Even co-owned a group with someone.
After I got into a situation with someone I wanted to proof that person wrong and started making small builds in roblox studio. I then found out how to work with Blender! It started with basic GFX and then I tried learning low poly builds. I’m currently working on the upcomming game of my group. Thank you so much for accepting me into the devforum! :woman_cartwheeling: :motorized_wheelchair: :golfing_woman:
