Hi! Iā€™m bootskibird and welcome to my introduction post!

I first found Roblox in late 2015 when my friends introduced me to it! I played a bunch of fun games and found myself making my own games too! At first, I had no idea how to build and I taught myself through tutorials and experience.

Some of my achievements:

  • Grew my clothing group to over 1k members
  • Over 60k clothes sold in total
  • Over 100k place visits in total

Although I have many achievements, I still have some goals. I would like to grow my group even more, gain even more sales, and possibly make a game that is enjoyed by many people. I would also love to learn coding and scripting.

My role in the developer community is a clothing designer, builder, and beginner GFX artist.

Thanks for reading my introduction and have a great day!

Hello!

I found ROBLOX back in 2012 randomly surfing the web for games, I knew a few people playing at the time however never really played as a group. The first game I came across was the original base wars on a guest account. I continued to play random games now and then not really committing until my friend and I wanted to join a star wars group. After that, I hopped over to NUSA and became fascinated with ronations where I continue to devote my time to today.

I first discovered ROBLOX Studio when I came across Stargate Command owned by @Ancientblue where I got the support of developers at the time to dive into building. My first task was to create props and whatnot and then progressed onto unioning (which at the time was new). Ever since Iā€™ve stuck with a few developers throughout my time on ROBLOX going away doing freelance from time to time doing my own thing.

Iā€™m currently a developer for OurStandingFounderā€™s USA which is an incredible community with amazing developers that create some spectacular pieces of work for the Washington DC game.

A year and a half late but I havenā€™t seen this before.

Hello there, I am :cloud_with_lightning: TESLAC0IL :cloud_with_lightning: and as one might guess, I am interested in the works of Nikola Tesla and many different things having to due with high voltage.

My former friend.

I opened studio and expected I would do something.

Release an experience that wins a bloxy. (I am doing pretty well for a solo dev withā€¦ difficult goals)

Programmer, Builder (if I take the time to be one), and I am learning to compose.

Hello! Iā€™m ramdoma/RamdomryRadical, and hereā€™s my small introduction:

I found ROBLOX through a friend in 2016, and had a blast playing all of the awesome games back then.

I started ROBLOX Development in the middle of 2019, just making a few buildings and having fun!

My current goal is to become a good programmer I suppose.

I am a programmer!

Not really, I look forward to talking to you all on the forum!

Hello.
I am CDev. I have been playing Roblox since 2016. One day in that a friend of mine showed me this game. I got started with development on this platform in 2018. I donā€™t remember exactly how I got into developing on Roblox. My current project is a Roblox grand strategy game project. My role in the developer community is a Programmer. That is all I have to say. Glad to be in the DevForums!

New here, I have a passion for being creative, innovative and unconventional; I want to say that being a part of an amazing community filled with talented individuals is an honor.

How I found Roblox you may ask? Well In late 2011 from the faintest of memories I recall a family member of mine playing a PokĆ©mon fan game on his machine and curious me pondered over his shoulder to take a peek of what was going on and boom, I was hooked. Through the montage of simulations, ninja games, and obstacle games Iā€™ve stumbled upon a neat piece of software called Roblox Studio, Iā€™ve tried it out and thought it was cool but as a naive kid I didnā€™t do much, but years down the road Iā€™ve picked it up again due to my interest with computer science and so Iā€™ve played around with it and developed small games, not too much though because I had a fear of getting rejected by the community for my ā€œstupid conceptsā€. So I was stuck in the metaphorical pit and never made a release but now I am ready and want to go all in; but hereā€™s the catch, Iā€™m making my software and games fully open source and also making my assets, audio and artwork fully accessible under the creative commons license. The reason why I am doing this Is that I believe my position in the community is to be a resource because I am a supporter of FOSS standards and want to contribute as much as humanly possible.

Yourā€™s truly, vextzyn

Hello I am leonbros2 and I am very happy to join the dev forum and work with its community.

I am a builder and I enjoy making different creations in blocky style, also my current goal on the platform is to learn Lua scripting.

Hello! I am gunita4 and I am new here1 I am a UI designer and I can do some clothing designs as well! I joined roblox quite recently, I think it was 2-3 Years ago.

I started making UI because I wanted to earn some robux but was poor so could not buy any. While doing commissions, slowly I gained interest in UI and I am doing it as a hobby now.

My goals on the platform is to expand the network of m work and improve itā€™s quality. I would also like to work with some big developing groups and just have fun!

Hello! My name CrazyChxllxex and I have arrived on this gaming platform in 2014! I discovered ROBLOX through, YouTubers & Ads and enjoyed the journey. Iā€™ve started doing small developments through ROBLOX studio. I began in 2016! With a home-pc back then. Looking back, I made extreme combat in terms of development & PC improvements! My role in the developer community is to look into hiring and recruiting individuals interested in my restaurant. Hopefully, I can come back here as an offering role as an upcoming developer!

For those who are interested in my group, please join Kimchu Co. Today we are currently at 70 members and still growing. Have an amazing day lovelies! <3

Hi everyone :wave:

Iā€™m Sean, although I have been a member of this forum for a while, I havenā€™t been too active, but I am now wanting to become more involved with the community :slight_smile:. With that being said, I think the best first step is for me to introduce myself.

I found Roblox a while back when I seen an old 2011 ad on YouTube - as soon as I seen it, I knew I had to join the growing platform, the never-ending creative possibilities attracted me to the core purpose of Roblox, to express your imagination in an infinite amount of unique ways.

Prior to using Blender and ROBLOX Studio, I used to frequently visit standard in-game building games such as ā€˜Ultimate Buildā€™, those who have been around since the early days will remember how difficult but fun this was :laughing:. After I downloaded ROBLOX Studio I felt at home - I used to watch tutorials endlessly both before and after school, trying to learn from those who effortlessly used the system. After I learnt the basics, I wanted to become more advanced and help my friends with their creations along the way.

When looking into the future of my time on this platform, I would like to eventually receive a full-time salary through developing on ROBLOX and help the community by providing building tutorials for future developers, although this is ambitious, Games Development is my passion!

I have included some of my builds below, if anybody wants any tips or has some feedback, be sure to reach out to me on Twitter!

Thanks for reading,
Sean :slight_smile:

Hi! Iā€™m Plasmacticus and Iā€™m an aspiring developer. The way I found Roblox is probably a lot more complicated than mostā€™s. I first watched DanTDMā€™s videos on Roblox and thought Iā€™d play it some time but wasnā€™t bothered to check it. I then watched one of Pink Sheepā€™s videos on Roblox Theme Park Tycoon and decided to play that. Thatā€™s how I found out about Roblox.

I got started with development because I played a lot of Nintendo games and wanted to become a developer when I grew up - more specifically a programmer. This was also partially influenced from my dad being a programmer as well. At first, embarrassingly, I thought you had to memorise everything when I first tried to learn when I was 9. I then learnt you could just look up stuff a few years later and thatā€™s where I am now.

I do not have any current achievements on the platform so far apart from learning the basics of lua. I want to make ambitious games but I know that is out of my skill set, so currently I am making random games that I feel like making to try and increase my skill.

As I already stated in the previous paragraphs, I am a programmer. I prefer working on server-sided scripts as I find client-sided ones more boring (especially UI).

Cool I guess. Not the best builder, but that doesnā€™t discourage me.
