Finally, I’m allowed to post!
My username is SpaceNightrider but I now go by Nexxarian for all purposes. Years back I made an alt with that username so no one else would take it, but since Roblox now lets you change your name for free I can finally have my username display differently.
I found Roblox in early 2012. At the time I was playing the MMO Lego Universe, and prior to its closure at the end of January I’d heard how some of my friends were moving to Minecraft, which I already knew of but hadn’t yet played at the time, and Roblox.
I’ve been on the site for nearing 10 years now and I’ve yet to actually make a game. I’ve worked with some friends on developing some but we just couldn’t ever get them done, things fell apart, etc. Honestly, for the last couple years I haven’t been very active on Roblox at all. College, work, and life in general along with a lack of interest just kept me away. Now and again I’ll come back to play a select few games when I’m bored, but that’s about it.
However, I hope that’s about to change. I’ve come to the Developer Forum in order to begin to get help with a potential project I want to work on eventually. I’m currently a 3rd year college student, supposed to graduate in Spring '23. I’m hoping that maybe this coming summer or at least after I graduate to begin working on my project. The only thing is, I will need a team. A couple friends have expressed interest in helping me with this project, but I’m not sure of their skill level and whether they will have the time for it.
My role is definitely a builder. I’ve made models before, but now my skill has greatly increased. In college I am majoring in 3D modeling, animation and game design, after all (mainly focusing on the modeling/texturing concentration of my major). I’ve done texturing and graphics for my assignments as well. I’d say I’m pretty good with digital art, myself; I use a Gaomon PD2200 tablet.
My favorite games on Roblox back in the day were Apocalypse Rising and Phantom Forces. 2013 was my favorite year on the platform between all the various events and whatnot. Late 2012/early 2013 was also when I began foruming. I accrued 42,029 posts on my main account before the forums were closed, primarily on Roblox Talk. I had another 3,000 or so on my alts.
