Beginners Roblox Lua Scripting Tutorial - Crash Course

Learn everything you need to start scripting your own Roblox games using this crash course. You will only learn the basics here, so no worries with concepts getting too complicated.

You'll specifically learn about the three basic data types, printing, comments, instance selection by file tree navigation, and changing a brick's properties(Change colors and even move it).

Disclaimer: This isn't a full Lua tutorial. I kept this simple so people can easily get going. You will only learn enough to experiment with the game.

If you want to develop games for Roblox, you definitely want to learn how to script using their coding language, Lua. You can use Lua to automatically manipulate the game. For example, Lua is used when a Roblox GUI button is clicked to execute an action. Although something complicated like that will be learned in a future tutorial.

The way you explained everything with great detail, unlike some other tutorials, makes it really easy to understand!

This was so easy to follow. Your personality was so reassuring and didn't make it seem so hard. I request u make a follow up video soon

[sopato]

I went on from this tutorial and figured out how to do a loop! Thanks so much, Omnidev.

[viole]

This is actually helpful for some people who are just starting to develop some games

I have to be honest, switching from an exploiter to a developer on Roblox has been an amazing experience, everyone on the devforum greeted me well and forgave my past actions, they understood me and how I have changed for the better and I couldn't ask for anything else.


Helping others learn to do what I did does more than you think, it can change someones life. Getting into developing can help someone get a career and help them get a good life. Good job!
