Hey I just saw your channel you have great tutorials

i learned everything about coding but i wasnt sure how everything worked, but this video helped me realize what to do THANK YOU WSLY I LOVED UR GAME BTW

yes, you're back

Good video, good tips! As a game developer who worked in a company for 5 years, you have a tight schedule sometimes (if not always). When you have a tight schedule, you have to think faster and less planning. I favor planning and doing things in the best way possible. But from what I have learned over the years in developing complex features ... Only when you start writing you see things more clearly. Another thing that many don't do and learn it, and if they understand it, it is the most significant step they might be able to take on the action to become PRO! It's shortcuts. Knowing how to write code is not a problem. Learning how to write quality and flexible code that can be changed in the future - it's a significant step on the way to becoming a PRO programmer. So, of course, it can come with experience, but always try to improve yourself and not get stuck. Check how you can improve the existing code (considering the time you have). Good luck!

Love the work that went into this video! The editing is on point :)

Lua learning deserves a lot more love than it should. Went on there and only 15 people were playing it. Now it might be because people learned and left the game. The tutorials are not all over the place and only take like ten minutes to read (I read the easy ones not sure about the medium or hard) also during the tutorials it will tell you what each line of code means. What I would do is write the code down in my sketchbook. Then write what it means and try to quiz myself until I remember what it means.

Thanks, Alvin for an amazing video. This really helped me.

Thank you so much, this helped a lot to understand how you can pick up on scripting and improve at it !

This was very encouraging, it reminded me that I’m not gonna magically learn everything in one day, and it’s gonna take some time

It was always a hobby for me, I honestly cant find any good games for every time I come home with a feeling I want to play a game like this so I set out on a quest making small parts of it and learning things along the journey and its helped a lot. I make games and have learned coding to make my dreams a reality, it was never about the money.

Great video Alvin, keep up the work these informational videos are really helping me strive to become a better developer.

this is really helpful. I still have the issue of not understanding what lines of code do, so when I find a good model with notes on what it does it really helps.

Alvin, i just wanna thank you for teaching me about scripting. I remember i used to be so lost like a year ago, now im so much more confident when it comes to creating, you opened up a whole different imagination that i would ever thought when it comes to creating! Thank you Alvin for helping me find something i enjoy!

Honestly you inspired me to script and to have fun

omg hearing your voice now rather then from back when I was learning feels so different, and your editing style is still very similar to your old one. I'm glad I went back to check on you.

Thanks! This encourages me to continue making games!

Thank you for the video Alvin, it really hrelped me. Im starting in this world and am creating my first functions and variables and It feels great to advance. I have very high spectatives so its a problem but im sure I will eventually learn!

Dang thx man I needed this I get these spurs and follow through but what kills them is I try doing projects which are too complex for me to follow through on. I'll follow this advice and try to stick with it.

Finnaly, it answers my question...

Thank you so much I've been looking for something like this!

Nice video alvin, keep up the good work!

It took my like 5 years to learn because I started when I was like 8 and decided I would never need a tutorial. I would just mess around with it until it did something and analyze toolbox scripts until I understood the basics and eventually the advanced stuff.

Wsly has always been a great example for me for making my own games, back in the old days when his games weren’t that popular he was in my roblox group called the dutch builders, we played and build together with the group and made some funny games and had an amazing experience. With thhe arrival of deathrun 1 wich was a beginning succes I loved that game and I saw how he putted his work in it and became more popular. So he recommended me to do the same thing as he said in this video on how to learn scripting. Since then ( it has been a couple of years now) I tried his method and it really works, I can script on roblox now and if I want I can make some good games but the only problem for me is perseverance. So anyone who want to learn scripting/ making a game you should really follow this strategy and this will help you so much more then just copying script or models. Thanks for making this video Alvin!

I really respect the take of "most people only understand how to make something, and not how it works", I was in the "only know how to make things" boat for a long time, but when I started understanding the actual code it's self, and building off those fundamentals, I became a much better scripter. I would recommend anyone reading these to actually learn the basics, and not how to make specific things.

Thanks Alvin, I was working on a game and I lost motivation halfway through, I was doing a tutorial and I was stuck at a part, it was an old one and roblox has changed since then but after I watched this video it inspired me to take a new approach, I applied what I learnt in both the tutorial and this video and finally got to solve the problem!

I learned to script by watching your tutorial on how to make stuff. I don’t know why but one day I suddenly understood almost everything (I have to say that because of for loops) you said. Now I’m working on a game that’s like horrific housing or plates of fate.

HOLY I HAVENT WATCHED YOU IN SO LONG, YOUR VOICE

I can relate to this, I've improved mostly because I take code from something I want to do, and divide it in small pieces, so I know what's the purpose of each thing, and try to simplify what I learned in my head, and also repeat in my head or take notes of the stuff I got from that source code so I don't forget it; Which I think is more efficient than just learning how to do a specific thing, since instead of that I use that same thing to learn other more, and by the time I can gather all those small pieces from assets I wanted to do, and make something completely new, or even a whole game.

Dude! this is amazing! I have been learning from you! you are great

This changed me and now I am following each way on how each dev made their roblox game. And now I am the developer of a little game called Zombie Defense

Learning process of LUA is complicated, but honestly, take it slow. Don't just rush through every single source to make one game. Instead, even one source of information is enough to explain how everything works. Though, I do admit that ROBLOX has very complicated syntaxs. Some in which makes it extremely difficult to learn without an error popping up, but that's the thing. Learn from those mistakes, even now I am starting to understand that language from like the 50th error I encountered.

@SiegeStudiosOfficial

6 ай бұрын

Then again, it’s good that Roblox has an output that tells you a specific error for a syntax. If something in your game doesn’t work, then there’s something wrong with your code.

Lol, I had so many plans and ideas in mind when creating my first game and I was also loosing motivation when I was realizing it was taking me a really long time to do and almost impossible so if you're a beginner developer, I would really recommend just making small games at the beginning and make your way to doing something different and adding more stuff

Thanks for the tips!

Reiterating the point of learning the code!! I usually redirect people to the lua manual, as it's much more beneficial to learn what the code means, rather than learning "if i slap this together, it does this". Learning Lua grammar so that you're able to understand what code does at a glance enables you to jump in and just start working! "I wanna display text, that's what strings are for." or "I see a colon with parenthesis, so this is probably a function!" for example.
