Into the book
This book does not teach you how to make a lot of Robux (Roblox Cash) in a short period of time, or how to make and sell various things to make money.
No matter what the internet says, the only way to make money is with hard work, creativity, and dedication.
--- p.xii
If we're going to get the word "experience" out of the way, Roblox has officially changed the term "game" to "experience."
Here, we will use the terms 'game' and 'experience' interchangeably.
The main reason Roblox changed the term "game" is because not all experiences created on Roblox met the definition of a game, but whether you call them games or experiences made with Roblox Studio is fine.
--- p.4
Along with functions, we will also be dealing with triggers. Triggers are events that react to certain situations, and by linking triggers to multiple functions, we can make the game map react and behave according to the player's actions.
A well-crafted function makes you feel good, but a truly well-crafted function can unlock the secrets of the universe.
No kidding, if you really want, you can do string theory and quantum mechanics calculations.
--- p.36
Updating too frequently is also not a good idea.
If updates are released daily, it will be difficult for players to keep up with the latest updates.
The most appropriate update frequency is once every two weeks.
It keeps you interested throughout.
What would be a good update? New items or events would be great, and if the game is still in alpha, special items exclusive to those who played the alpha version would be a good idea.
--- p.122
You might ask, what kind of game in this world has a time limit of only 5 minutes and you are kicked out immediately after dying once?
The reason I made this is because I've never seen a game like this before and there's something hidden in the game.
We don't want players to just come into the game with a light heart, quickly get a badge, and leave in a few minutes.
The constraints placed on this game will force players to act quickly.
It also makes it so that the price of failure comes down heavily.
