Description:
In this class you will learn how to create a Roblox game and become proficient with Roblox Studio, the game development suite used to create Roblox games.  You will also develop your ability to code in the LUA programming language.  LUA is a popular language in the game development community and is also used in fields such as image processing and web development.  This course has a section for beginners on basic programming skills such as declaring and using variables, assignment statements, conditionals, loops, tables, and functions.  After the basics are covered, the course gets into more challenging topics such as touched events, powerups, traps, spawning objects and NPC monsters, as well as the leaderboard to keep track score and points.  Additionally, the user interface is covered while creating an in-game store for your players to buy the weapons they need.  This course will be updated periodically and currently the videos are being recreated at a rate of once per week to ensure the expanded functionality of Roblox is fully captured.  Additionally, new content is on its way to cover basic Non-Playing Character AI, a section on creating your own weapons, creating animations, and using the data store to allow players to save their data in between games!

Who this course is for:
Programmers and non-programmers that want to create their own Roblox games
