About

Using the Roblox platform, we'll be going over the process of creating your very own game on Roblox Studio. Together, we'll get familiar with the UI, learn how to use 3D assets in your game, and learn how to program in Lua to make it all come to life! At the end, you'll get the opportunity to create your very own game!

Hey, Ryan here! When I've got the time, I'm here in schoolhouse, happy to engage with the community, and provide tutoring in the areas I love the most! I was an inaugural Tutor Coach in the Enrichment Subworld up until June 2024. When I'm not on this site, I'm probably at school, hanging out with friends, or playing a bit of soccer.
