Game Dev with Roblox
Build and publish real games on the platform kids already love.

About This Course
Roblox isn't just a game — it's a full game-creation platform used by millions of young developers. In this course, your child goes from playing games to building them using Roblox Studio, the same free tool professional Roblox creators use.
Starting with 3D world building and moving into real programming with Luau (Roblox's scripting language), students design, script, and publish their own playable game by the end of the course — one they can share with friends and family with a single link.

The 12-Week Journey
12 weeks · 6 modules · every module ends with a working project
Welcome to Roblox Studio
Tour the Studio interface, learn to move the camera, and build with parts, materials, and colors. Every student builds their first scene in week one.
World Building
Design environments with terrain tools, models, and lighting. Students plan and build their own obby (obstacle course) level layout.
First Scripts with Luau
Write real code: variables, properties, and the Touched event. Students script kill bricks, checkpoints, and color-changing platforms.
Making Games Interactive
Functions and loops power moving platforms, collectible pickups, and traps. Students learn to read errors and debug their own scripts.
Scoring & Leaderboards
Add leaderstats, win conditions, and a proper game loop so players can compete. Students balance difficulty to keep their game fun.
Polish & Publish
Add sounds, on-screen UI, and a game icon, then publish to the Roblox platform. The course ends with a demo day where every student presents their game.
