Hi there! My name is Matthew and Iā€™m a teenager from Canada. I joined Roblox in 2015 when a friend introduced it to me and I began developing a few months later, playing around with free models from the Toolbox and what not. I run a virtual airline on this platform called Air Norway and am currently experimenting with detailing using lighting and terrain. I mainly view myself as a builder ā€“ Iā€™m definitely no programmer but I can ā€œbodgeā€ something together. Iā€™m also not bad at graphical design through software such as Photoshop and paint.net.

Itā€™s awesome to finally be a member of the DevForum, canā€™t wait to contribute to some positive and constructive discussions here!

Cheers,
Matthew

Hi, Iā€™m Yoshi
I found ROBLOX in 2010 and have been playing games on ROBLOX almost every day since then.
I got started with development at around 2012 where I would make free-modeled forts for my army group. Slowly Iā€™d start to edit these free models to fit my needs, and eventually I would just build things from scratch.
I got into Graphic Design in 2016 when I took a digital art class in High School. It taught me how to use Photoshop, and I eventually learned how to use Blenderā€™s modeling and rendering tools on my own.
Since then, Iā€™ve been mainly building and making art on ROBLOX, and recently Iā€™ve even been learning some lua programming (although itā€™s pretty embarrassingly bad, haha!)
Below you can see an example of one of my projects I made for an army groupā€™s Royal Guard division.

Canā€™t believe I can finally post here! Iā€™m very happy to join this community, and I hope I can improve my skills or help others improve theirs.

  1. How did you find Roblox?
    I found it as a free game on my Xbox. Decided to give it a try and ended up really liking it.

  2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
    A friend of mine invited me over to make a game in studio one day, and I ended up learning how to make games on my own.

  3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
    My main goal is to make a game that people enjoy. Thatā€™s it really.
    I donā€™t really have any notable achievements.

  4. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
    Iā€™m a Builder, but I am currently learning scripting.

Iā€™m so glad to be here! Here is a little bit about myself:

I found Roblox, because some friends recommended it to me in 2018, and I really enjoy it! I am a young developer, and I am so happy to be able to meet others who love to make games and art on Roblox!

How I started online, beginning with my YouTube channel:

I started by making YouTube videos in June 2020, because I was really bored, and it took a few months for my channel to start growing, and I posted quite a few videos during the summer. I took a 2 month break from Youtube because I was feeling discouraged, and school started, which took up a lot of my free time.

Fast forward to late October, I was feeling pretty aimless at that point, and I was searching for a long time, for people with common interests as me. I was browsing through my YouTube recommendations and I happened to come across the CaSeismograph community, and I have made so many good friends there who encouraged me to pursue my passion in seismology! I felt excited that I finally came across a community who enjoys seismology as much as I do! It even got to the point that I got my own seismograph around a month later! You might be asking something like ā€œWhat does this have to do with being a Roblox YouTuber and developer?ā€ Just bare with me, youā€™ll see soon enough. Go back around a week before I got my seismograph, I was sitting in front of my computer, bored, so I decided to watch the Lil Nas X event. I was waiting in the lobby, and asked if anyone wanted a screenshot to post on my YT before the event started, just to add some excitement while I was eating my pizza. To my surprise, many people in the server immediately said yes, and asked for my YouTube channel, which I gladly told them. They all subscribed right then and there, and joined my Discord server. That was the most subscribers Iā€™ve gotten in one day (I was at 18 before this). That gave me a huge amount of motivation, and I posted a video the next day, which was my first upload since early August.

Fast forward about 2 weeks, and I was probably the happiest Iā€™ve been for the past few months (seismograph, bday, motivation, new friends, and even a surprise vacation!) I was sure nothing would go wrong, but sadly, a sudden tragic event happened, and I learned about it as soon as I went on vacation. This threw me into an even worse mental state I was in before, and I lost motivation to keep working on my YouTube channel again.

Go ahead to January 2021, I was feeling really hopeless and sad, but my channel finally hit 50 subscribers! I decided that if I donā€™t find motivation now, I was gonna be stuck doing nothing for a while. So I forced myself to find motivation, and continue working on my channel. When I returned from a very long vacation, I was finally able to turn on my seismograph, and the owner of CaSeismograph agreed to run my live seismogram feed on his channel! This was my first collab, and I felt very excited about it!

I started doing GFX as a hobby (when I wasnā€™t doing huge amounts of homework), and from there, I started doing 3D modeling. I have been using multiple earthquake recordings in my art, which I feel is my own unique touch to my art. That has heavily influenced my taste when creating designs, and that has led me to the style of art I make today. Recently, I have made Roblox clothing to represent my YT channel, and my taste.

So far, my YouTube channel is running smoothly (Iā€™m at 81 subs as of Apr 4, 2021) and I am investing more time in modeling. I am making UGC concepts, because I really hope to be accepted into the UGC program, so I can share my art with everyone to wear. I just got back from Spring Break, which was really fun, and I am mainly focusing on modeling with my free time.

In the foreseeable future, I plan on getting into the UGC program as soon as I can, and start doing UGC and GFX commissions when school is keeping me less busy. I also plan on rolling out real life merchandise, and livestreaming on my channel soon.

I would like to thank my family, my friends, my fans, and the CaSeismograph community for being with me in this journey, and I canā€™t wait to see what the future holds!

TL,DR: This past year has been an adventure, with many ups and downs, and there were many wonderful people who influenced what I do online. I am a modeler, YouTuber, seismograph host, and GFX artist. Donā€™t give up, even when things seem to be hopeless. If you believe in yourself, you can accomplish anything!

YT channel: ProtonPowerGaming
Seismograph code: AM.R48E7
Commissions: Not yet

Anyways, thatā€™s my story of recent events, and what I plan on doing in the future. Congrats if you made it this far in my rant, itā€™s 1am on Easter Sunday, and I canā€™t fall asleep. Thank you for reading this, and I hope you have a wonderful day! (Or night)

Hello! I am aIwaysbadly! I am a person who loves and dreamed to be apart of the devforum, and it has finally happened!

  1. I found Roblox by my brother in 2017. We had great time, especially in Murder Mystery 2. Unfortunately, my brother quitted now. :frowning:

  2. I think it was 2019 when I started to know about graphics! I really did love it and it took me a long decision to either becoming an artist or not, however, I became one! I was gonna be a builder but then I gave up unfortunately.

  3. I donā€™t really have achievements/goals on the platform as I became apart of the devforum, but I might have some planned in the future!

  4. Artist in Roblox Graphics.

  5. I hope I can meet and get to know you all! Hope we can also be friends one day. :slight_smile: :heart:

Hello! Iā€™m Mariohead13, I started playing Roblox in 2013 as a guest, and I made an account in early 2014. I wanted to make awesome games that I could publish easily and Roblox was the best place to do that, so I started learning developing in summer 2020. Iā€™m currently working on my own game that will be released soon. My skill is mostly scripting, but I also build and make UIs.

Thank you for accepting me into the the developers forum!

Duke_Cakeface here. Most people just call me Duke. I am very excited to be accepted to the DevForum. I have been playing Roblox with friends and family for quite a while now and finally decided to create my own game.

My focus/strengths are Core Game Design and 3d Modeling through the use of Blender. I am working with a programmer who has shifted from Unity to Roblox Studio, so as you can imagine there have been some growing pains. I hope to gain enough knowledge through the use of the forums to not only complete my own game but have the ability to answer questions and help others complete their projects as well.

Again thank you for the opportunity to access these forums. I am excited to to put them to use.

Hello! Iā€™m a new member at Developer Forums. Iā€™ve actually been here for a while and it took a pretty long time to figure out how to get accepted. Iā€™m really honored to be accepted as a member of DevForums.

Iā€™m XxkerrishxX, Iā€™ve been a developer on and off ever since 2016. Iā€™ve been a Roblox Player since 2014. Iā€™ve started out with building then I drifted off to GFX which got me interested in 3D modeling after realizing you can do so much more with a 3D software.

Because of my experience in GFX and interests in visual arts, I am relatively a Graphic Artist as well.

My goals are just like any Developer, making a somewhat successful game. One day I would like to get into Cinematic Animations. But before I do that, I definitely need to improve on my works. Iā€™m really good with creating concepts, I have a lot of game concepts in mind, maybe one day, Iā€™ll be able to create my wild imagination.

Iā€™m looking forward to being a part of this community. Thanks for inviting me!

Hello everyone, Iā€™m happy to be able to comment, because I became a member. :laughing:

1 - I heard about this game by subscribers of my youtube channel, they always ask me to know more and play in my videos and lives.

2 - I am a modeler and study blender since the year 2011, where I played to create subjects for the game Second Life, as soon as I found out about the infinite possibilities of Roblox, I came to learn reading the forum, in search of understanding.

3 - My goal is to create accessories and hats, as well as games in the future, try to show my talent by creating bonds of friendship with other developers and possible businesses. I already have some hats and accessories in my profile, totally free to use, so Iā€™ll build my library of models.

4 - I am a modeler and builder.

5 - I have always studied on my own, I come from Brazil and I hope to have the opportunity to show my models to everyone freely.
