Introduction thread for new forum members

Hello I am AAN

I found roblox awhile back when looking for new games to play. My cousin said I should play a game called roblox and here I am now.

I got started maybe a year after discovering roblox, but this was like 7-8 years ago now.

My goals are to dev and maybe help other people in their game-making ventures.

I script, build, model, make guis, script, and animate. Lots of stuff!

Love roblox studio btw.

Hey!

Iā€™ve gotten into Roblox a few months back as a High School student wanting a career in Computer Science. Iā€™ve played Roblox with my friends since I was in Middle School and wanted to return to this community to work on Game Development.

Iā€™ve actually started with this software because of the childhood I spent on this platform - having memories of games and fun times collecting limiteds and whatnot. Considering this and my passion for programming, Iā€™ve started to look into the amazing and broad array of things I can create in Studio with programming which was what brought me into this lovely community.

My current project I am doing is related to other projects I do in real life - in regards to Community Service and using technology as a tool to help those in rural areas; solving problems with sustainability, health, and efficiency. I am a huge believer in learning through entertainment, which was why I joined this community to work on projects and games that not only bring a fun time for the audience to enjoy but also have another lesson that they can get out of.

I am currently a programmer capable of using Lua, Java, JavaScript and C++ all self taught. I am also learning how to make models on software such as Blender, as well as working on Graphic/Digital Art.

All in all, great to be apart of this community and to see wonderful developers achieving their goals! More to come!

(since I did many things wrong with my last reply, I had to delete it. So, here is the actual good one!)

  • How did you find Roblox?
  • How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
  • Current goals/achievements on the platform
  • What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
  • Anything else you would like to include

Hi! So, to start off, on day, I was browsing through YouTube when I saw this YouTuber named Flamingo (aka mrflimflam, Alrbert, Cleetus). So I watched his videos non-stop and to myself I said: ok, I REALLY need to play this game. And, so I did.

2nd question; My friend one day said: Hey, wanna make our first ever Roblox Game? I was like: Yea, man! Okay, sure!! It was just a simple Obby with no check points what-so-ever. Itā€™s still available for everyone to play today. The game is called ā€˜Test Obbyā€™. That is where I started. Without him, none of this would be possible today and I am very happy to be here now.

3rd question; I would like to be a successful Game Designer and make at least 2 games that will be successful for me (and by that I mean at least 100 players at a time in each game.)

4th question; I do more than one thing actually. I do very little Lua scripting, and I do building. So then, I guess, Game Designer. Itā€™s what best suits me.

5th question; I wonā€™t be focusing on just my games, since thatā€™s just kind of sad. I want to help other people too, and I hope I can in the near future. Me and my friend that I talked about before in this post, we stopped making games together . Hopefully that changes. Well, it was fun to write this message. Hopefully something good happens. Byeeee!! :wink:

I wanted to introduce myself properly since I am a new developer forum member.

Iā€™m Atlxnn, otherwise known as Atlan. I have been on Roblox since about 2017 which means I was about 13 when I started playing. I found Roblox from an Ad somewhere Iā€™m pretty sure.

I got into the development side of Roblox a few days ago and I think I was watching Youtube and I saw a time-lapse of someone making a Roblox GFX. I was jealous of the persons skills, (shoutout to Vadez/Jett), and I really wanted to get into making some myself.

My goals are definitely to get myself at the top of the food chain when it comes to Roblox GFX. In any category/theme.

My role in the developer community is making GFX. And I really enjoy it.
I just want to say that I am happy to be a new member and I hope I can make a difference in the community.

Hello! My name is NicholasMRoosevelt (formerly mooba12).
Iā€™m new to the DevForum and Iā€™m really excited to be here! I look forward to learning from others and contributing the best I can.

1. How did you find Roblox?
Well, my brother and I were playing random games on the internet, but we kept seeing ads for one particular game, Roblox. We had wanted to join, but we didnā€™t have the courage to actually ask our dad if we could join :sweat_smile:. Eventually, we built up this courage, asked him, and he let us. Ever since then Iā€™ve been hooked.
2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
Well as soon as I joined I saw that each person had their own ā€œplaceā€ that they could edit. My brother and I played around with this but we never really got into developing, per se. A couple of years back, my friend got into building, and heā€™s improved and gotten so much better over the years. This inspired me to get into it, and Iā€™ve been playing around with things since.
3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
I hope to get much better at clothing designing, and I hope to start up a group with my friends about it. We all have our own strengths, so together I think we could do a good job. Thatā€™s all I have currently, but I know I will have many more projects in the future.
4. What is your role in the developer community?
Well, Iā€™ve been on and off with developing for a while. Iā€™ve tried out building, that didnā€™t really work out, I did some modeling, wasnā€™t that interested in it, tried out scripting, again, did not have that much fun with it, and I did GFX, which was fun, and I considered myself to be good at it, but I eventually fell out of the interest. As of right now, I am focused on clothing designing.

Happy to be here! :smiley:

Hello! Excited to ask questions and post some cool stuff here!

I found out about Roblox from Youtube videos and from a friend that told me about this game.

I started development when I discovered the Studio app on my desktop, and I didnā€™t know what it was.
And since I was using it I started having fun developing games :slight_smile:

My current goal is to create a game called ā€œBiome Fightā€ and to turn developing into a hobby.

I know some Lua scripting, so I guess I am a programmer. Iā€™m not sure if the roles are supposed to be like a Devforum thing only, like the text shown by the side of your name, or if itā€™s based on your knowledge about a topic in Roblox Studio.

Iā€™d want to say that Iā€™m so glad I have access to the Dev forum, I like going in here and reading articles about solved problems that can teach me stuff about Studio more!

Hello, my name is Verdin and I found Roblox in 2015 when I saw a friend playing it. I started developing on studio less than a year ago, but I would say it truly started a few years ago when I began to make GFXs and later 3D modeled in Blender. Now, I have begun to learn Lua. My goals are to finish the development of my first game, and I have had many achievements throughout development, such as when I fixed various bugs and figured out how to do certain things. I do not have a set role in the developer community, as I have made GFX, UIs, 3D models, and builds. However, I would consider myself a programmer/scripter since that is what I have been involved in the most recently. (I am a very new scripter and am not advanced in any way). I am very excited to be part of the forum.

Hi, Iā€™m Naaboom,

I started playing ROBLOX all the way back in 2011 as a guest from an ad I found out. I started developing a few years ago with building but I eventually self taught myself how to mesh in 2019. My goals on this platform are to one day become a full-time 3D developer and use those skills onto larger platforms later in life. Currently, Iā€™m an amateur 3D Modeler and builder.

Iā€™m excited to join such a thriving and helpful community, thanks!

I found Roblox by my cousins big brother

Though, ! donā€™t actually script or do basically anything, I do want to be a good scripter and a casual builder. Iā€™ll try to learn the basics but mostly here to have fun around in Roblox Studio. Iā€™ll probably stop and learn a different engine just because I have no idea what im gonna do

Hello! Iā€™m Phyton and I just realized that I got promoted to be a member today while Iā€™ve got the email on December 2020. :sweat_smile:

Well, I was still a kid at that time watching DanTDM while doing homework. Honestly, his videos encourage me to play Roblox since it looks very fun :laughing:

I started to develop because I found out that itā€™s an alternative to get Robux instead of buying it. (well I was just a kid :shushing_face:). I used the template or preset given when starting a place. Vroom vroom :joy:

I would like to learn more about scripting and improving my 3D building skills, like what Iā€™ve done before. :grin:

Iā€™m a builder! Since I have familiar with Roblox Studio than other applications :sweat_smile: :laughing:

I would like to say, thank you for giving me this chance to be in this community. Itā€™s an honor to be here although I just realize Iā€™m a member today :sweat_smile:. Anyways, nice to meet all of you guys! :grin:

Hallo there! Iā€™m COOLDEV16T and Iā€™m super excited to finally become a member on the developer forums! This is an alt account of COOLGUYI6T. Iā€™ve done this so I can keep myself organised with messages and all that other stuff.

Anyways, onto how I got into developing. One day, I asked my dad: Can I have robux? He said no. Then I remembered that developers can get robux by making games! And thatā€™s how it all began.

What I want to achieve: I am currently working on a multiplayer cooking game that I plan to release next year.

I am a scripter and not to toot my own horn, my skill have increased alot over the past few months

Anything else: not really.

Have lovely day or an amazing night! :smiley:

Good evening, my names Cynthia. Itā€™s a pleasure to be accepted to DevForum.

I was introduced to ROBLOX on the 20th of April, 2016. The person who introduced me to ROBLOX was my cousin who still plays ROBLOX to this day. When I started developing, I just threw it some zombies, guns, and some towers. I currently have no goals or achievements on this platform, and I wish to not have any. The role in the developer community I have is building, that is the only thing I am experienced at. Also, my favorite bread is white bread. That is all you need to know about me, you can find more about me on my ROBLOX profile.

I found Roblox trough my friends. My first game was a simple horror game yet we kept coming back to play with eachother. It was a lot of fun and then I started to play more games.

I always wondered how the games were made so I tried starting developing but since I was too young I could only grab things out of the toolbox and play with that. Now Iā€™m a more experienced developer and started on developing games.

My goal is to find a group of friends to develop a game with. Since I had questions I tried to search on the internet but I couldnā€™t find the solution I needed. But then I came across devforum which helped me a lot.

I am currently a Programmer who is still learning RBX lua but progress is being made. I am searching for some people to collaborate with so I can learn from him/her and get some more expierence before I actually make a game.

This is a wonderfull place and I am excited to learn more here. :slight_smile:

Hello everyone! I am CodedHarmony. I am just a small developer who has had a love for coding, building, and engineering since I was very young. I found Roblox when I was young solely because I wanted to make a game and needed a platform to do it. I made a small game called Roblox Water Park which blossomed and became something I was (and am) very proud of! I am very grateful for the opportunity Roblox has given me and will definitely not be stopping anytime soon!

Hello, finally got the Member status! Anyways, my name is Welly2. I am willing to spend time showcasing my creations and to spread my ideas and reviews across this wonderful comunity that it is.

I found Roblox in 2010 by my sister, on my old account (that I sadly lost the password to in 2012, witch led to the creation of this account)

I created a few free-modeled games, then I created my own builds, then I do everything (with helps of sources on this forum or external wikis)

My goal is to share my talent as a music composer, give honnest and constructives opinions on various works (devlopement, roblox core update, visual and musical work, etc.)

Iā€™m a young music composer (main talent), scripter (beginer) and GFX/artist (amateur).

Even tough I have an ā€˜ā€˜edgyā€™ā€™ avatar, doesnā€™t mean Iā€™m not kind, I like chating and having various discussions on various topics.

Anyways, first ā€˜ā€˜traceā€™ā€™ on this forum done! Have a nice day! :slight_smile:
