I think alot of people remember playing this as a kid, and if not, allow me to explain.

Roblox is a game where you use blocks similarly to LEGO pieces to create games, they've been around for an extremely long time, and have been updating still, nowadays, you can create some really insane shit if you put your mind to it, so if you want to become a game developer, this game is a great place to start, especially considering nowadays you can make real cheddar from Robux and whatnot.

Need an example? Check out "Welcome to Venezia", this was made completely from scratch.



I will give you all a warning though, Roblox has its problems, it's 100% free to play, but alot of stuff tends to go for Robux, which you need to shell out cheddar for, throw in the fact there are alot of rip-off's of games that are just lazy ideas(Except for Apocalypse Rising, which I actually find a pretty fun Day-Z clone.)

I should also mention that the community is made largely of 10-12 years old, and...yeah, that almost always ends badly, but if you can get by that, Roblox is still really fun to play.

I still play this. There's a lot of good things in there, putting aside the annoying kids, and places made with free-models.

Just because someone's place uses free models doesn't mean it's bad.

Developers often use resources given to them by other developers, this is common in the gaming industry.

I wasn't trying to say that, but all of the free model games I've played/watched brother play(mostly the latter)are just lazy, "put this one here because it looks decent".

I just forgot what I really wanted to post. :psyduck:
