Introduction thread for new forum members

I found Roblox when I was the age of 7 and me and my sister wanted to play something fun and something that included roleplay. We found Roblox of Play store/App store and we installed it. The first games we played were work at a pizza place and royale high. There was lot of lag since we were using a mobile device to play. We deleted Roblox and for many years we played other games. I got into HTML and Javascript (Web Development) and enjoyed coding. I always wanted to make my own game and found out how great Roblox studio was and began messing around with things. I eventually taught myself how to build, script, and do some GFX. That how I became a developer today.

I found Roblox in 2017 I think and before that I watched YouTube videos about it. I am still not developing games/ My achievement is to finally create a game. My role is Player. I wondered how to be in the Dev forum when I found out about it.

  1. I found ROBLOX by watching a youtuber called EthanGamerTV 4 years ago. He still uploads videos to this day.
  2. When I found out that you could create games on Roblox, I didnā€™t really care about itā€¦ until I got into HTML and programming in general.
  3. On an old account, I had 3K visits on a game. Goals: Get a game with at least 3-10K Visits on this account.
  4. Iā€™m pretty good at GFX, scripting (programming) and Translating (English>Polish, Polish>English)

  1. How did you find Roblox? I found ROBLOX just by randomly searching for fun games in the app store.
  2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform? I always wanted to know how games are made and how I could make one, but I couldnā€™t as I didnā€™t have a computer, a coupple years later I got a computer to use with my VR headset so I started to try to develop on that, I have been a user of the dev form for awhile but just got the member rank.
  3. Current goals/achievements on the platform: I have developed for some big groups and I also own my own SCP group named McCool Foundation, with a game coming out soon. I also have been a member since 1/5/2015.
  4. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc) Builder, Designer, and translating (Spanish>English, English<Spanish), Clothing Designer.

Hi! I am a new member and itā€™s great to be accepted.

  1. I am SimonLacrima and Iā€™ve been a member of ROBLOX for about 5 years now, switching between many different accounts when my friends suggested I play ROBLOX and I really enjoyed it.

  2. I started to get interested in development around 1 year ago when I wanted to make my own game in ROBLOX so I started watching some youtube tutorials.

  3. My current goals on the platform are to become recognised as a popular game creator, around 300k+ visits and a goal of 500 concurrent players.

  4. My role in the development community is a Programmer!

  5. Iā€™d like to just say thank you to the ROBLOX staff for accepting me into the forum as now I am able to share my opinion on development topics and help out others while finding some information that can help me out too. :slightly_smiling_face:

Greetings! I finally got accepted :smiley:

Iā€™m SpaceRhye. Iā€™ve been on Roblox since 2015 when my friend suggested the game to me and have attempted to create a game pretty much ever since then but never really put much effort into doing it, however due to being in virtual school i now have tons of time to put thought and effort into game creation which is really exciting.

I started getting into development originally because a lot of my online friends when i joined were into it, but i personally got into it recently because i realized it was something i could combine two things I really like (programming and art) with

I donā€™t really have any big goals yet since iā€™m pretty new to developing. I just hope my games, such as the game iā€™m currently working on are enjoyed by people once i eventually finish them

Iā€™m new to most of the stuff concerning developing but some things iā€™m looking forward to eventually mastering are
-programming
-GFX
-Design
-Building/Modeling

Hi there!

  1. How did you find Roblox?
    I heard about Roblox many years ago without really trying it out. Last year because of the pandemic I heard there were even more people playing it so I gave it a try. Then I found that I love it and I would play with my daughter together from time to time.

  2. How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
    I worked for an EdTech company and I have an opportunity to propose a new initiative so I mentioned why donā€™t we try building something using the Roblox platform. My boss like it so therefore I started learning together with my team how to build Roblox game.

  3. Current goals/achievements on the platform
    I am still exploring but my goal is to build something that kids, teachers, and parents would all like and teachers can use the games we made for teaching any subjects easily.

  4. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
    I do a little bit of everything.

  5. Anything else you would like to include
    I am so happy to become a member in the forum. I am actively looking for talented Roblox artists and developers so that I may outsource works to speed up what my team is doing.

Hello there! I am JustDenzX, I canā€™t remember when I found roblox but my brother introduced me to it when I was still quite small. I started making things in studio around late 2016 - late 2017 after I found roblox studio already downloaded on my computer I canā€™t remember exactly what I first built or why but I know my brother liked it. My goal is to learn from over developers to become more skilled in what I enjoy! I am a builder and I also make GFX.

  1. How did you find Roblox?
    I saw a video with DanTDM playing it, and I joined as a guest in 2016 and eventually joined in 2017. Ever since Iā€™ve been hooked.

  2. How did you start with development on the Roblox platform?
    I wanted to start learning to script my own game, so I used the forums and YouTube guides to help.

  3. Current goals/achievements on the Roblox platform:
    I am currently focusing on learning all basic scripts, and then using what I know to make a basic Roblox game. Itā€™ll probably be awful, but my long term goals are bigger. I eventually plan to open my own SCPF on the platform, or make a JoJo game, or maybe something just completely original!

  4. What is your role in the development community?
    I would consider myself to be a beginner Programmer.

How did you find Roblox?

I saw an ad on some sort of flash-game site in like 2009 or so. Been doing random stuff since then, and plan on staying for as long as possible.

How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?

I originally started off just building random stuff in the studio. I wanted to do more. I decided to try and take up scripting because building wasnā€™t really my forte. Iā€™ve been getting better, and I create stuff on my own accord. Once I get tired of a project Iā€™ll leave it be forever.

Current goals / achievements on the platform

Iā€™ve made many friendships, and many bad experiences through ROBLOX, thatā€™s one reason why I stay. I meet really cool people, and itā€™s a good place for me to socialize from time to time. Itā€™s a good way to pass time, you know? Learn, talk, play.

What is your role in the developer community?

Iā€™m intermediate at scripting. so Programming. I started about a year, year and a half ago. Iā€™m improving slowly, but surely.

Anything else you would like to include

I also do clothing designing. Iā€™m not good at it but I try. I mostly dabble in recreating particle effects from other games, because I find it fun. ROBLOX is a good pastime for me, and I love to meet new people on it. Itā€™s a really good place for me to be, sometimes. A good way to express my creativity and have some fun in the meantime.
