Game Design With Roblox (One-Time/Sample Class)– Ages 9-13
This class is a one-time/sample class that allows students to get a taste of what it is like to create a game in Roblox Studio.
This class would be good for students that want to start learning how to make Roblox games, but don’t have any experience using Roblox Studio or coding in Roblox. This class might be too easy for students who have a lot of previous experience making Roblox games.
Get introduced to using Roblox Studio and the Lua coding language while creating a fun obby (obstacle course) to play with friends and family. Students in this class will learn the basics of adding objects in Roblox Studio and will even have a chance to script (code) some of the objects in their obby.
Technology Requirements:
A Roblox account is required for this program. An account is free and can be setup at https://www.roblox.com/.
Students must download the Roblox Studio program to their Mac or PC to be able to create their games. This program is free and can be downloaded at https://www.roblox.com/create.
In this class, students will learn to…
- Add basic Roblox parts to their game.
- Move, scale, and rotate parts.
- Change a part’s material or color.
- Add a simple script to a part to make it fall after they jump on it.
- Create a simple obby that they can share with friends and family.
Parent Reviews
“Mr. Walk was very thorough and patient with the students. My son is 10 and learned a lot to get him coding and building. “
Aaron W.
“10 out of 10 according to my son. He is absolutely right! A knowledgeable teacher with excellent content. My son seemed very enthusiastic and is interested a second part and code. He has the basics and is hoping another class will teach him how to code a ‘boss fight.’
Definitely a good beginner class.
Thanks Shawn!”
