In this 4-week beginner-friendly course, students aged 7-12 will get their first introduction to Lua scripting in Roblox Studio. They will learn how to use simple scripts to make their games more interactive—creating buttons, moving platforms, power-ups, and other fun gameplay elements. Each week, students will build on their knowledge by applying scripting concepts to their own platformer-style game. By the end of the course, they will have a playable game with interactive features that they can share with friends. ✨ What You’ll Learn: • Basic Lua scripting and how it controls game interactions • Using scripts to create buttons, moving platforms, and power-ups • Understanding events and triggers to make the game respond to players • Designing and testing a simple platformer game with interactive features 🚀 Why This Class? This course isn’t just about learning to script—it’s about becoming a game developer. Students will gain confidence in programming, problem-solving, and creative thinking as they bring their ideas to life. By the end of the course, they will have a strong foundation in scripting that will prepare them for more advanced game mechanics. 💻 Requirements: Active Roblox account Roblox Studio installed on a Windows or Mac computer Computer mouse (recommended for easier navigation) 📝 Note: This course is designed for beginners with no prior scripting experience.
