Introduction thread for new forum members

Hello there, I’m Martysh12, and before I get into my introduction, I’d like to thank you very much for letting me get into the forum!

My name is Martysh12 (obviously), and sometimes, people call me Marty. I’m a self-taught game developer and a 3D modeller.
I joined in early 2017, a day after my friend showed me a game on Roblox.
I’ve been interested in game development from the very start but couldn’t bring myself to watching long Lua tutorials.
And after three years, I decided to start learning Lua and Roblox Studio.
I’ve been learning 3D modelling since 2017, and I’ve gotten pretty efficient at it.

And now, here I am - I can script pretty good and do 3D modelling pretty well too.

Goodbye!

I’m ilikepotatoes109, and I’m fairly new to roblox development. I first discovered roblox with a friend, back in 2017. I am a self-taught scripter that started in late 2020.

I’m really thankful I’ve got accepted, and I hope to become a better scripter in the future.

  1. I found roblox from my sister in late or mid 2015. Fun fact: The first game I have ever played is the McDonalds Tycoon. A year or less later, I finally created my first account in June of 2016.

  2. I got started with development on the roblox platform when my best friend showed me roblox studio in 2017. We played around in roblox studio, inserted lots of free models (obviously because we didn’t know how to build back then). Many months later, in late 2017, I started to take roblox development seriously.

  3. My current goals on this platform that I want to achieve is,

  • Start making robux from my games.
  • Get better at scripting & learn to make clean code. (I like when people can interpret my code)
  1. My role in the developer community is UI designing but I’m also a programmer, builder & music producer.

  2. Damn, the nostalgia hits hard when I think about Pinewood Builders… used to be really good back in 2017 & earlier. I still remember playing PBCC everyday back in 2017 in my moms old windows 7 laptop.

which is now full of viruses.

Hello, I recently got promoted to a member, and I am glad to be part of the Dev Forum. Anyways I will introduce myself to anyone who is reading this reply.

  1. I found Roblox from an old Roblox ad in 2013 when I was young. The account I am on is a new account created in 2018 which will be my Main Account.
  2. I started development in my old Account (first account) when I found out you can actually make your own games on Roblox. I used Free Models until I started to learn how to build, so I made a few Showcase games which I would learn from time to time and improve my building skills. While building, I also learn how to animate and make my own animations for characters. For example: Walking/Running animations.
  3. My current goal/achievements on the platform would be making games and learn how to script since I am really not good at scripting.
  4. My role in the developer Community would be Builder and Animator, but most of the time, it is Builder.
  5. I would like to thank Roblox for having me joining the Dev Forum. I will be looking forward to use this site and try to follow the rules. I am really thankful for Roblox for teaching me how animating and building models work.

Hello everyone, I found out I’m a member at the moment. Let me introduce a bit. :wink:

  1. It started with some letsplays. I saw them 4-5 years ago and then I made my first account.

  2. I began a year ago and it was hard. I really didn’t know how to use the Studio and I am learning to this day. Hopefully, you can’t see my games unanchored now. :smiley:

  3. Plan is to improve my skills and make some impressive game.

  4. My hobby is building maps or making game icons and thumbnails. My scripting skills aren’t much usefull at the moment.

  5. What can I say… Just to spend a great time together and see ya in topics.

How did I find Roblox?
Around 2013 when I was 5, my brother, Expressor, (or Rayino_1 now) would play games and I’d watch. After seeing him play this fun lego-like game, I wanted to try it. So, I went onto our family office computer, downloaded roblox, and played games as a guest. He’d get mad at me for doing this, I still don’t really know why, but I still played it occasionally despite his attitude towards me playing Roblox. In 2014, he had gave me one of his alternate accounts while I was trying to decide a username for Roblox. I was pretty young compared to others who joined roblox. This alternate account is the one that I’m currently on as of now. I’ve put it to great use, using it to make new friends and have fun on the amazing platform that is Roblox.
How did I get started with developing on Roblox?
I have to be honest, I forgot. It may have been me watching my brother messing around in it or just me discovering it and exploring.
What are my goals on the platform?
My goals are to try and make users enjoy their experience with making new friends and having fun.
What do you do in terms of development?
I’m a builder. I don’t script often, but I do create some decent UI designs for games I’m working on.
Anything else?
No, not much. There are a few things that I could put in here but this is already long enough.

Hi, I’m Ethine. I don’t usually use devforum but here I am now I guess.

I found roblox a long time ago because my friends started playing it and I eventually got into it. I saw some games I loved on the Xbox, and once I got a computer many years back, I decided why not try developing. I have a small community for my first project that in all honesty was really just a bunch of free models, though I digress.

That was about four years ago. Now I am developing a little better (at least I would like to think so haha) and working on a few projects. My current goals are one, to finish my current group project and get it released before October rolls around. This would give me time to decorate the site with Halloween decor if I want to which you bet I do. Second, I would like to help the other people I am working for make good games and it’d be nice to see those games get pushed out and succeed. My biggest goal is helping with the development of Area-19.

Area-19 is a game that really pushed me to start developing. A year-ish after I started developing, the group got taken down though the assets were still there and after multiple attempts from the owner to revive the game, he gave it to Dreg (vRansomware). It was there that Dreg hired me and I helped revamp many areas of the game and add multiple sectors, etc. It was my passion project at the time and even though I worked for free, I loved it. They say all good things must come to an end and that is just what happened as I started to lose passion and motivation to develop for the game anymore so I quit after one more update. The last update was my last hoorah for Area-19, and I took a break from developing for around a month. Afterwards, I got back into it and started developing for others more as well as starting my own project.

I am a builder, a terrain artist, and a novice UI designer. I primarily build, though I can make some UI that slaps as well as terrain.

So anyways sorry for the whole mini life story there haha, if you want to see some of my work you can message me on discord (Ethine#4977).

I found Roblox when I came over to my friend’s house in 2013, I took a 2-year break and came back in 2015.

Back in 2013, I used to insert whatever from the Roblox toolbox, however, I can’t call that development. I started becoming passionate about developing in 2017, because of the love I had for computers and code ever since I was born.

My current goals are to start scripting anything that comes to mind, and if I cant do it immediately, ill try to script simpler stuff yet challenging(for my level) which will provide me with the building blocks for my next big idea.

I really can’t give myself any role right now, however, ill be sure to have one. right now am just a starter in programming.

I started coding C++ when my computer science teacher announced a coding competition, I had no experience, with 2 weeks left for the competition, I tried learning C++, I got good at it, however, the competition got cancelled because of covid, I wasn’t ready anyway lol. I tried getting more into coding by programming in unreal engine, at first it was intimidating because of the API I had to learn and the various classes it had, I wasn’t able to do much, but it did give me knowledge about classes, co-ordinates, and servers, this led me to believe that even failure has something to offer, and we can always learn from our mistakes. Anyway, am excited to interact with the community :smiley:

  1. How did you find Roblox?

I found Roblox a few years ago when I was playing Minecraft with one of my friends. We were at their house and they wanted to show me some other game. That game turned out to be Roblox! I then fell in love with the platform and downloaded it the second I got home. Have been playing ever since.

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

I got started on the Roblox platform as a developer a few years ago, when I met my first friend on the platform. This friend of mine had his own group, Baldi themed. He then asked me if I wanted to help make a awesome game for the group, and I agreed. Ever since, I have loved making awesome, unique creations on the Roblox platform.

  1. Current goals/achievements on the platform

I have achieved many things on the platform, including 100+ MAU most recently, which is quite the start for me. My goals include things like achieving a group of over one thousand members, and ensure a friendly community of players from all over the Roblox universe!

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

I do a bit of everything, I never got into doing just one piece of the puzzle, so I decided to learn to do a bit of all.

  1. Anything else you would like to include

Yes! I would like to give my greatest friends a shoutout! @JustDenzX @OrbitalThreat and SparksammyOfficial for being there when I needed them the most!

Hello, I am JamminRedPandaMan. I joined Roblox in 2018 or 2019 (I can’t quite remember and I’m to lazy to check my joined date lol) and I started Roblox Studio a year after I joined ROBLOX and have been developing for almost 3 years. I Specialize in scripting and I’m pretty good at it. I can make decent stuff for games but I stink at CFrames. (If you have any advice on how to learn advanced CFrames PLEASE reply to this message and tell me.) I hate building and UI design and testing and drawing and yeah pretty much everything but scripting :sweat_smile:. But yeah thanks for your time and have a great day. (btw srry if this sounds way too informal idk if it’s supposed to be formal or not. I may edit this to be more formal if I feel the need)
