Introduction thread for new forum members

Hey everyone! I recently got my member rank!

I am happy to be joining everyone here! I have been a programmer and a UI designer for a long time now. I started ROBLOX back in 2009 when I was in my early teens when I was just looking at sites for games to play, and it was my main source of entertainment, then took a long break around 2014/2015 and recently came back.

I have been programming for 11 years roughly now, and served time in the US Air Force for part of my learning, I know most of my stuff as a security programmer and software things. I used to develop for a couple superclands back in the day as I started then eventually run a couple superclans a long time ago in my time on ROBLOX so I got my way around the communities.

I donā€™t have any goals coming up, just trying to live my life and enjoy what I do. I am here to mainly try and help the community, take part in new things, and make more friends with fellow developers!

Hello! Iā€™m a Roblox Development teacher. Some of my students use the forum. Iā€™ve been actively making a game, and figured Iā€™d be able to find people who can help. Also, I figured I could help others.

Iā€™ve been using LUA since 2006. Iā€™m knowledgeable across the board on a wide range of game development topics.
Thereā€™s nothing I canā€™t try to do, but I also know thereā€™s others that can do things better. But that doesnā€™t stop me from learning.

Hello guys!!! Iā€™m EchoWinds, a fellow game developer within the ROBLOX community here to make games for everyone to enjoy!!

Iā€™m mostly a horror game developer, Iā€™m currently working on a project called ā€œZail Park [Horror]ā€ inspired by the steam game ā€œDeath Parkā€. I first entered the ROBLOX development universe back during early 2016 and decided to take a break from ROBLOX late 2017. I came back in 2020 (last year as of now) and am back stronger than ever with the creativity!!

Thanks for reading my introduction post and I hope to see you all in the future!! :smile:

Greetings, Iā€™m LynicalMazikeen. Iā€™ve been on Roblox for a solid ten years now but ended up losing my original account. I only recently got into developing, maybe about a month ago, and focusing on scripting. Iā€™m hoping to make games that the Roblox community will enjoy; as long as other people enjoy the content that I end up releasing, I will be happy. Glad to be a part of the community.

I am new here, I have been trying to get in for a while! I like to help people with their projects and I like making obbies and random games. I have been on roblox since 2013 on multiple accounts and love the game. In 2020 I decided to start using studio and taught myself the basics of Lua.

HI everyone! My name is dhluigi and I am an amateur Roblox YouTuber and game developer!

  1. How did you find Roblox?

I found Roblox after a friend told me about the platform during school. I now have been playing for 10 years!

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

I got started in Roblox development after a friend told me I could insert anything I could imagine into my place. This was back when the insert tool was a thing, so I filled my place with tons of free models and had a blast playing the place with friends! I didnā€™t get into scripting until a friend and I decided to spend a summer creating a game on Roblox. That was such a fun experience!

  1. Current goals/achievements on the platform

My current goal is to create a fun and entertaining game that will be enjoyed by many. Right now I am working on making a simple minigames place to increase my skills!

  1. What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)

My role in the developer community would be considered a programmer. I also do some of the other related categories, but programming is my stronger skill.

  1. Anything else you would like to include

I am excited to keep learning and keep creating on this platform!

Hi,

Iā€™m new and a total Roblox noob. Just started playing the games only about 3 months ago and learning the ins and outs of Studio for about 2 and half months.

Iā€™ve heard of Roblox for years, but never really tried it before, until my little daughter wanted me to play with her. I shortly realized that Roblox allows anyone to make games and share easily.

Right now I want to make a fantasy type game, in the vein of Final Fantasy.

Iā€™m a programmer by profession, but Iā€™m greatly enjoying being able to build worlds, even though all can do to it is look at it, lol.

Iā€™m having great fun, with the little time Iā€™ve spent so far and plan to spend much more time with the community.

thanks for having me!

I was introduced to Roblox by one of my friends. I thought it was a very nice platform and continued on with it. On the development side of things, I started after wondering about how all these games worked. I searched up tutorials on YouTube, went on Roblox DevHub and on this platform to try and learn how to script (still working on that). I kind of gave up for a bit, thenā€¦I decided to try building. I was immediately good at it right from the start, and I tried learning some basics to building like adding textures and good lighting. Iā€™ve also tried GFX and UI designing, and Iā€™m currently making clothing (getting better at it) on Roblox. My goals and achievements on the platform are: getting Ice Valkyrie, Classic Valkyrie, or BlackValk, making a game with at least 100k monthly visits, making games that people will love, and getting over 500k robux.

Hi! I am breuning. Iā€™ve been on Roblox since 2008, and have learned Lua thanks to it. I came back recently to check out how things have changed and I am astounded as well as kind of sad (most of my scripts broke due to the hard server/client cut and other updates).

How did you find Roblox?

I found Roblox over an Advertisement on Newgrounds

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

I started out fooling around with free models in Studio, at some point I had a front page game (front page meaning 20-30 players at that time)

Current goals/achievements on the platform

I really, really want to make a space dogfighting game with some hardcorey elements and a lot of space for customisation. Itā€™s already WIP, but I still need to get used to all the changes in API, it might take a while.

What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)

I am a Programmer. Albeit a rusty one.

Anything else you would like to include

Iā€™d love any advice about how to structure client-server interactions, particularly when it comes to CPU-intensive functions

Hello everybody! I am finally proud to be here! :smiley:

My name is Holdiaz. I found ROBLOX in around 2017-2018 and i started playing ā€œWork at a Pizza Place!ā€ which was popular around these times!

At 2019, I discovered ROBLOX Studio and started playing out with it. Then, i was seeing people make some really cool GFX! So i wanted to make one. And that is when i discovered blender.

My current goal on this forum is to help as many people as i can and give feedbacks! Other than that, i donā€™t really have a goal in ROBLOX itself!

My role in the developer community is Builder and Modeler.

I want to say that i am really happy to be here, i am sure weā€™ll get along well!

I found Roblox by word of mouth 4 years ago. Development has been on my mind for a while but Iā€™ve recently gotten into it. My goals are to make a game with my friends, weā€™re currently making an rpg card game (with inspiration from hexaria, persona, etc). My roles in the developer community is animator, programmer, builder, but Iā€™m the best out of those at animation. Iā€™m somewhat scared that my games wonā€™t come to fruition, but practice is what I need the most.
