Roblox Lets Independent Game Developers Bring Their Creations to Life
Rahul Kalvapalle — September 25, 2015 — Tech
Roblox is a new game-creation program that gives game developers the tools and the help they need to bring their gaming visions to life. In app form, Roblox allows users to create their own games.
What's great about Roblox is the fact that it allows game makers and developers to create games of all kinds. It could be a bloody action game, a racing simulator, a shooting game, a capture the flag format or anything else really. Roblox also allows creators to then publish and make some money off their creations using the Roblox platform.
"An indie game developer, really for the first time ever, is going to be able to create a game that pushes to phone, tablet, computer and console," says Roblox CEO David Baszucki says.
That's a pretty great draw, and should lead to the development of some great games.
