I AM MAKING A GAME 😂

Hmm.... I am bored what can I do
For this many might answer to watch a movie, write a post or make a crappy website that nobody is going to use.
Well, well, well I am going to make a game before Rockstar games does.

With this amazing idea from my overcomplicated brain, I swiftly opened up my computer and relaxing taught about what game engine I should use. I have experience scratch shall I use that. Ok that was a joke. I used Godot before, but I didn't understand fully and how the heck am I supposed write all the networking code. What about all the complicated commands. And How in the world can I earn money off it. Then, I decided use Roblox studio because it solves all these problems for me. It's easy to learn, monetization is done, networking is done. So, it's pretty good for me. Many of might argue that we get very little money off our games and only kids play our games. I needed to start somewhere at least. So here we go!

SO, after learning for some days. I found out Roblox studio to be extremely ez. However, earning money of this thing is difficult. So, if you are an extremely ambitious developer. I personally recommend you skip Roblox studio. But for a half-baked full stack web developer it was the perfect thing to play with!

I am actually really well-respected senior web developer regardless of my age so don't take my words seriously

The monetization system Roblox is kinda weird. You get robux when premium ROBLOX players play your game (there are 16.5 million premium Roblox players) and the only other way to earn money is by game passes. Next you get only about 70% of robux from the price of the gamepass. Why? Go ask Roblox! So, it's only good if you wanna get started.

Coming to the development experience. The editor itself is really user friendly, and Lua is easier than JavaScript. So, I have a good time developing. After a few days of awesome development, I finally came up with an idea. So, announcing my game officially. It is called NIGHTMARE and hence the name it is a horror game. It is a horror game because it's Halloween now. Here are few sneak peeks. Let me know if you want more details about the game
