Create Roblox games that bring your imagination to life
Description
Book Introduction
Just follow the steps and the metaverse unfolds in the palm of your hand! Now, I can be a game developer too! Roblox models and manipulates games in 3D space. From the unfamiliar Roblox Studio screen to coding in Lua, which requires typing directly in English, it can be challenging to imagine the endless world of fun you've always dreamed of when you first start making Roblox games. This book covers the entire process of game production, from the initial stages of ideation and planning to launch and monetization. There are practical examples to help you create games, making even seemingly difficult coding easy. The finished product is important, but what's most important is how the game was planned and what you actually did. A good understanding of the process will help you develop problem-solving skills and enable you to plan and implement better games on your own in the future. In this book, you'll create a "terrain jump map" where you jump across a dangerous island, a "multidimensional dropper" where you freefall through a terrifying multidimensional space on a UFO, and an "extreme survival game" where you survive by finding water in a hot desert. You can add a variety of features to your games with Roblox's coding scripts, such as floating sky islands and rotating laser obstacles. Create a fun experience where the virtual game world you imagine unfolds before your eyes with "Make a Roblox Game That Makes Your Imagination Come True." Meet us in the Roblox Metaverse, a space where imagination comes true! |
