7 years ago I stumbled upon this game. I quickly got hooked and started my baby steps on programming.

Now I'm currently studying game development and I think it's safe to say that it was ROBLOX that made me do this. Oh boy, this game affected me more than I thought it would.

Haha! It's been a fun ride. I'm still currently taking baby steps in programming, but I definitely grew up with this game more than i should of have. I'm gonna assume you're in college... are you a CS major?

I mostly got hooked cause in my first year of roblox, I just put some zombies down and a wall that goes invisible every 60 seconds with some building tools and suddenly I was on front page.

EZIEST 30K VISITS OF MY LIFE.

If you are, then here's some advice.

C++ is quite similar to RBLX LUA. Of course, LUA has a ton more limitations and with C++ you would have to learn about data structure ( basically organizing your code so that there isn't any leaked memory ) which is a huge pain in the ass.

Also, google is your best friend.

It's all about that medicine boiiiiii.

You just gotta go $250k in debt, and endure the extremities of med school. Plus you gotta have perfect stats in dat college.

Too ezzy.

I see they don't give out a ict curriculum in my school so I couldn't comment on that. In my curriculum it's either computer science or admin.
