I found ROBLOX back in 2015 when I found a weird video pop up in my YouTube recommended. When I saw that you could create your own games, with all the tools you need at easy access, AND that ROBLOX has their own platform so I don’t have to create my own player system etc., I was interested. My original account is no longer being used though, because I wanted a fresh start.
When I first started developing, I knew pretty much nothing. I just messed around in Studio, and it was only later that I decided I wanted to start coding. The dev wiki and countless tutorials helped me learn what I know today. My goal is to create a game that I’m proud of. I’ve created many games, yes, and I don’t care how much I make off of it or how popular it gets, I just want to be proud of what I’ve done.
In the community, I’m a Programmer. I have a bad eye for building- I guess I’m not good with making things look nice. I don’t know if that’s because my own particular interests are different than the masses, or if I’m just plain weird. I think I’m not that bad at UI Design. What I make looks nice to me and others, but I’m sure it’s not top gear.
I’m working on a game with my friend, and I have more planned after that, and I won’t stop programming until I’ve made the best game I can. I’ll see you there!
I found Roblox back in middle school when a friend of mine in my robotics class recommended me to play this game.
I got started with development very simply through just Roblox Studio. I saw it was installed onto my computer along with the normal Roblox player, opened it up, and started playing around with free models and scripts. This helped me develop an interest in programming and allowed me to be the programmer that I am today.
My current achievements are making game mechanics, particularly on the mathematical side, such as a payload cart controlling system, cover system to hide behind walls, and more realistic ladder climbing mechanism. One of my main goals is to get a game out there that incorporates all of Roblox’s newest features combined with my current knowledge of scripting and game development that ultimately ends up being loved by the Roblox community.
My current role in the developer community is one of a programmer.
Hi! I am EnginnScript, an UI designer on Roblox games and softwares.
I find this game, ROBLOX when I was still a kid watching videos made by a famous YouTuber. One day, a video came out by him, which is about Roblox and soon, I gain interest on that game so I decided to play it with my phone. I was a guest at that time. Meanwhile, I played a lot of games that still exist on Roblox, such as pizza place. A few week later. I signed up because it was fun.
In the mid 2016, I was inspired by a lot of games exist on frontpage and so I decided to open Roblox studio and created my own first game. However, that game is filled with free models. In the mid 2017, or summer. I found out a channel on YouTube called RIPPER0NI which make scripting tutorial and gameplay videos. (Sometimes)
I joined their discord server and later on, I gained a lot of knowledge about Roblox scripting and building which improved my developing skill a lot. Anyway. My goal is to make Material Design on ROBLOX, including progress bar , ripple effect and more.
How did you find ROBLOX?
I joined ROBLOX in 2013 as an extremely bored teenager that wanted something to do at the weekend. I’m not quite sure what made me want to join ROBLOX, and I’m not sure how I found it.
How did you get started with development on the ROBLOX platform?
At first, I quite enjoyed helping my friends out. They always wanted help building games (which is why I’m thankful for Team Create) and it just progressed from there. When I first joined ROBLOX, I wasn’t that confident with Studio and often found it difficult to use, but over time, I’ve become more secure.
Current goals/achievements on the platform
I wish to become more advanced with my building, receiving any tips and support and helping others when needed. In the future, I’d like to work with a team of Developers on a public game, and I’d like to be able to see the game community and fan base grow and progress. Only time will tell.
What is your role in the developer community?
I’m a Builder. I’m not confident with scripts (and I don’t really have the time to learn script/code yet) so I decided to build. I enjoy making random creations, and working on projects.
I hope to maintain my activity within the DevForum and I’m excited to see what the DevForum can do to help me advance my skills. I’m always prepared to offer advice to anyone who needs support with their building skills, and I’m always prepared to learn from others.
I hope to see you around!
How did you find Roblox?
I joined Roblox a few years ago, and was fascinated with how much the platform had to offer. At first glance, I was hooked to the vast amount of games to play, catalog items to browse and buy, and people to talk to. Roblox is awesome!
How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
I started developing with simple building, and gradually worked my way up to more advanced builds - although I haven’t even come close to mastering building just yet. After some time of creating builds and watching tutorials, I started to watch beginner scripting tutorials, which helped a lot.
Current goals/achievements on the platform
I want to become more entwined in the community and come up with an original and fun game that requires endless amounts of work. That’s why joining the devforum was a must for me!
What is your role in the developer community?
I see myself primarily as a builder and graphic designer, although I may look into learning more coding so I can become more efficient. At the moment I have friends who are all into scripting, so they teach me a lot.
Hello everybody! I’m new here and have been trying to get here for a very long time.
I was introduced to roblox back in 08’ by a friend and ever since then I have been playing it.
As of now, my current goal’s are to complete a game I’ve been working on and keep building things I love. Whether it’s racetracks, cars, aircraft, trains, you name it, I always enjoy building.
As I got older, I started to become interested in coding and building. I started like most of us did. Pulling apart other people’s code and messing with it. As I taught myself more, I began making my own scripts, experimenting with cool ideas.
What is my role in the Dev Community?
I am a Builder
And I love to use code to bring my creations to life.
Hello everyone! I am delighted to be here. I am excited to get to learn and help (although I can’t really offer much) as much as I can.
My (younger) sister actually found Roblox first from her friend (I believe). Since then, she has basically quit but I am still here!
A long while ago I got into HTML, CSS, and Javascript. After playing on Roblox for a long time, I realized that I can actually create things! So I started binge-watching tutorials so I could get familiar with Lua and Studio.
Well, I haven’t created any ground-breaking games, but I have found an AMAZING partner and friend. He builds and I script. We are in the progress of developing a game and progress is going very well!
I am a programmer. But, if necessary, I can make UIs. I just enjoy scripting a LOT more than making GUIs.
If I’m out of line, tell me right away. I like brutal honesty; thank you. Also, if you see me doing something like this: “HEllo” you can blame my keyboard and its sticky shift button. Just let me know and I will correct it. Also, I love solving problems.
Hello all I am maximus_baconus, a new user to the ROBLOX community. I hope I can make a game with this platform (not sure what my game is yet). And it seems to me the ROBLOX devforum can help me with: finding people who want to help me, tutorials, what’s new for ROBLOX and for getting feedback for a game to. I am very excited to begin my development journey in ROBLOX.
PS. No I am not actually bacon in real life though I may claim to time to time .
Hi guys, I’m Mark512345. I am an intermediate scripter, and I’m hoping I can acquire a lot of help from the community in here!
I started playing Roblox in 2009. It’s so nostalgic thinking about the old times right now.
I began developing months ago, I was extremely proud that I was able to script stuff! I started with reverse engineering, and a little bit of tutorials.
Me and my friend are making a game (with a group of 271 members as I’m writing.). I’m the scripter, and he’s the builder. But sometimes I had to look up stuff that I didn’t know about, and I found the DevForum.
I’m mostly a scripter, but I do a little bit of building/animating.
Hope you guys don’t mind if I ask for help a lot.
Hello everyone! I’m AwesomePossum212 and I was just admitted to the DevForum through the new system. Back in 2017, while browsing the iOS App Store, I found a peculiar little game named “Roblox.” I decided to play it, and I was instantly hooked. The creativity that I saw was awe-inspiring. I little while later, I logged in on my computer and decided to poke around the website. Soon thereafter I made my first game, named “Fire Brick.” It was a brick but it was on fire. Now, about two years later I am an intermediate scripter with my sights set on creating cool games for people to enjoy. At the moment, I am an intermediate Scripter and UI Designer and an amateur GFX Artist. I’m excited to become a part of this developer community.
How did you find Roblox?
I found Roblox in around 2012 in Polish School. My old friend told me about it so i decided to check it out as a guest, for around 1 year before I realised you can make accounts! So I created one but my original one was hacked. I still use Roblox though, on a new account.
How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
My friend introduced me to studio as well, I thought it was amazing. At the time I was programming on Scratch (2d block-based programming) so I decided to give Roblox a try and it was so much more fun than Scratch.
Current goals/achievements on the platform
My goals are:
Get recognized within the community
Be part of developing an Egg Hunt / other event
What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
Programmer and builder, mainly programmer though.
Anything else you would like to include
I hope to become involved in the community more!
Awesome for me, I am now a ‘new member’.
I certainly hope to contribute the the forum here, and participate with all of you great people!
I found Roblox 10 years ago with my brothers while playing a game, (Bloons Tower Defense) It was an Ad for something where you could ‘Build your own World’.
Instantly we were interested, but to our dismay something happened that made us lose that page… We later searched for it and found it though.
I’ve always wanted to do just that, but only recently (past couple years) was able to seriously begin and start making things…
I need to make things almost completely offline, and that slows me down considerably… (The wiki is INVALUABLE, always saving web-pages!)
My current goal is to release a demo/prototype for a one or two games, before making something big
My role is Game designer, beginning coder, etc (everything really… though not an expert by far!)
I hope to work together both through the forum and on projects with great developers.
I honestly found Roblox back in early 2010/late 2009. I was a kid playing whatever free games I could find on the internet, just trying to blow off steam out of boredom.
After I learned what Roblox was really about, I’ve been hooked.
I’ve always been interested in creating games, and mostly using creation as an outlet in general. I’ve been into music all my life, about a year ago I decided I wanted to make music for games. Videogame music and music from my favorite shows are what inspired me to get into music long ago. Eventually, I decided that I wanted to learn how to program, as programming is like the future of everything nowadays. So, I figured Roblox Lua was a good place to start and see if I might like it. I’ll eventually be getting into more advanced things at school, but so far I would call myself an amateur, and one that is enjoying the learning process. I can’t tell you how many hours I’ve dedicated to taking physical notes and reading API Wiki pages
My main goal right now is to create something that I’m proud of, and something that I can enjoy with me and my friends. I’m long from being any kind of coding professional, but I’m more than willing to put the work in. As far as past achievements, I can proudly say that collectively my music has been heard by about 8 million people. I think that’s super awesome, definitely something I had never dreamt of before.
I’m mainly a programmer, but occasionally I do make music for commissions and such. I’m not super into monetizing music I don’t like making, so I had quit doing music commissions for money. It just felt wrong to me as a musician. Anyway, I’ve been doing programming for awhile now, a little over 5-6 months. I’m finally getting the hang of it and can’t wait to get started on some real projects :_)
How did you find Roblox?
In late 2015 I went over to a friends house and he played Roblox, so he kind of got me into it. I started off playing the games that had pirate ships, and some prison life.
How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
I wanted to make a cool game for a group I owned, so I started off making a sort of castle/fortress. I didn’t know I could turn off collisions back then so using the triangle terrain generator didn’t work very well. I like to think my building really started when I watched a few tutorial videos from probably this same devforum that showed people resizing blocks into each other, which was a bit of a breakthrough for me.
Current goals/achievements on the platform
I just want to build cool things, and maybe buy a few cool things with the robux I get for them. I’m not very ambitious.
What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
I’m a builder as you probably assumed from the previous questions.
How did you find Roblox?
Howdy! My name is snorebear and I’ve been on Roblox since 2012. I found Roblox long ago through some Google ads.
How did you get started with development on the Roblox platform?
I got started with development on the platform when I started building sites for my SCPF at the time. For those who don’t know what that is, I was building basically military complexes that housed anomalous creatures.
Current goals/achievements on the platform
My current goals/achievements on this platform revolve around development for @II_VortexII’s SCPF. However, I plan to be assisting more around the DevForum and working on larger scale projects.
What is your role in the developer community? (eg. GFX, UI Designer, Programmer, Builder etc)
I am primarily a Programmer, while also being a UI Designer and a Builder.
Anything else you would like to include
I hope to be establishing myself on the DevForums.
I discovered Roblox at a family gathering. One of my younger cousins was playing the game “Prison Life” and I thought it was fun to play. I got Roblox on my PC and continued from there. I just played Roblox for about a year or so, exploring games and just having a good time. I met some friends back then that I’m still friends with today. I started getting into development after one day when I thought to myself “I want to make a game that will be recognized” while playing a game. I downloaded studio and just started playing with it. I didn’t use tutorials so it was a somewhat-slow learning process. After I had the basics down I started to try and learn how to script. Right now, I’d say I’m intermediate at it. I think that I’m more strong with building than scripting, but I tend to script more. My current goal as of now is to finish a game I just started developing a few weeks ago and to expand my knowledge of development. That’s about all for me. Oh, I also help out with scripting-related stuff for people who are stuck or want to learn more. I’m also extremely happy to finally be a part of the dev forums
Hello! I’m Zhillandru. I’d like to say thank you very much for accepting me into the DevForum.
I’m Zhillandru, I’m a Logo Designer and Still learning about UI Design. I’m started to design cuz i like to see cool Graphic Design so i learn about it. My goal is work as a team and make success game and want to be full DevForum member and Hopefuly i can get into Bloxy Award. My role is Artist/GFX.
I just want to Thank to Roblox and all for making me like this!! Thank You So Much!
