Class Experience

Beginner - Intermediate Level
This mentorship is an interactive, project-driven experience where students create their own Roblox game while learning the core skills of game development. 

Each session focuses on practical application—students will design, build, and refine their projects with direct mentorship and guidance. The course is structured to ensure steady skill development, but flexible enough for students to explore their own creative ideas.

Students will start by learning how to use Roblox Studio, understanding key tools, and navigating the game-building environment. From there, they will dive into scripting with Lua, gradually incorporating interactive mechanics such as movement systems, collectibles, and obstacles. 

Beyond technical skills, students will also develop essential problem-solving abilities, learning how to approach challenges with creativity and persistence. 

Collaboration is encouraged, allowing students to discuss ideas, troubleshoot issues together, and learn from one another. By the end of the mentorship, each student will have created a functional game they can continue to develop and expand on their own.

Learning Goals

Build a strong foundation in Roblox Studio tools and game design concepts.
Learn basic Lua scripting to create movement, interactions, and game mechanics.
