This beginner-friendly course will teach you how to create fun and interactive Roblox games using Roblox Studio and simple Lua scripting — even if you’ve never coded before.

You’ll learn how to add and customize obstacles, create spawn points, and design your game environment. After that, you’ll dive into basic Lua scripting to make disappearing platforms, lava kill blocks, moving obstacles, and timed challenges. These features bring your game to life and make it more exciting to play.
You’ll also learn how to build custom 3D models using Roblox’s Union and Negate tools, allowing you to create doors, windows, roofs, and unique game objects. To polish your game, you’ll design a main menu and settings screen using Roblox UI tools and make your game look professional across all screen sizes.
By the end of this course, you’ll have built a complete, playable Roblox game and gained the confidence to create your own games in the future.

lessons are engaging and suitable for beginners. It’s a great first step for kids to get into coding without feeling overwhelmed by complex topics. I would definitely recommend it for children who want to start making their own games.

The course is excellent for kids who are just starting with Roblox Studio coding. The voice is very clear, friendly, and professional, which makes it easy for children to follow along. Beginning with “Hello, little coders” immediately grabs their attention and creates a welcoming learning environment.
