Roblox, stylized ROBLOX, is a user-generated massively multiplayer online social gaming platform developed and published by the Roblox Corporation and released in 2006.

In the game, players are able to design their own games within the platform. Games on Roblox can be designed using a sandbox edition of the programming language Lua. Their in-game currency, Robux, can be rewarded to users and developers, or bought, and which in turn can be converted to

cash through the Developer Exchange program. The game is designed to be family-friendly, with the ability of running on a wide variety of devices and platforms, including PC, Mac, Android, iOS, Xbox, and Oculus.

As of 2016, Roblox has 30 million active monthly players.

Nearly all Roblox games are created by the Roblox community, with the exception of some created by Roblox staff.

Players can customize their virtual characters with various hats, head shapes, body shapes, clothing, and gear. Players may also create their own articles of clothing. They can also collect and trade items, especially limited edition collector items. Players can add other people they meet in the game

to their friends list. This feature was also added to games in ##### On February ## ##### a new update to replace the Friends and Best Friends system, named Friends and Followers, was introduced. This update allows a maximum of 200 friends and infinite followers. Players also have the option

to join community groups. After joining, players can then advertise their group, participate in group relations, and set their primary group.

The game development and building is done via an application called Roblox Studio. It is a free program that comes with Roblox.

Players use the Roblox Studio built-in building system to construct places with bricks from varying colors and shapes. Players can also browse the Roblox Library and find models and scripts, which use a derivative of Lua 5.1 .Roblox also created an Official Model Maker system where talented

model makers are able to create and make their creations visible on the front page of the Roblox Library model section.

Players can use the programming language Lua to dynamically change the environment of the game. Also, plugins can be developed with Lua to be used in Roblox Studio.

Roblox was created by co-founders David Baszucki and Erik Cassel in 2004. Roblox – a portmanteau of the words "robots" and "blocks", launched in beta version that year. The website was officially launched in 2006.

The game's original currency was 'Roblox Points', which were later replaced with Robux. During 2006 and 2007, Roblox added features that included a messaging system, a search system, and avatar customization. Roblox badges were first introduced on December 22, 2006. In March 2007,

Roblox became compliant with COPPA, with the addition of safe chat, a change that limited users under the age of thirteen to communicating by selecting predefined messages from a menu. In August 2007, Roblox added the Builders Club, a premium membership, and applied server

improvements.

In 2011, more than 5.4 million games were created by users. The first Roblox conference, called the Roblox Rally, was held on August 1, 2011, at the Exploratorium in San Francisco, California. This was then renamed to the Roblox Game Conference, and then again to Bloxcon in 2013, which

was held in multiple cities. In December 2011, Roblox also held their first Hack Week, an annual event where Roblox developers work on innovative outside-the-box ideas for new developments to present to the company.

On December 11, 2012, Roblox released an iOS version of the game.

On April 1, 2012, Roblox was hacked, with hackers gaining access to moderators' accounts, reducing the price of some items in the catalog, while also taking away from or awarding Robux to users. The website was taken offline after the attacks, and administrators were able to undo all the

changes, reverting the entire currency system back to before the hacks. In December 2013, an animation plugin was released. Users also became able to insert basic humanoids through the interface of the studio.

On October 1, 2013, Roblox released the Developer's Exchange. The feature allows users to exchange their Robux into USD. The requirements to use the program are a minimum threshold of 100,000 Robux, membership in the Outrageous Builders Club, and a valid Paypa###############f

November 29, 2016, the current trade ratio is 500 Robux to $1.

On May 31, 2015, a feature named Smooth Terrain was added, increasing the graphical fidelity of the terrain and changing the physics engine from a block-oriented style to a smoother and more realistic style. On November 20, 2015, Roblox was launched on Xbox One, with an initial selection of

15 games chosen by Roblox staff. New Roblox games for this console will have to go through an approval process, and are subject to the Entertainment Software Ratings Board standards. In Summer 2015, all combat-related badges were discontinued.

On April ### ##### Roblox removed their secondary currency, called Tickets. During the thirty days before it was removed, in-game items were released that could only be bought with Tickets as exclusive, commemorative items. The Trade Currency system was removed to coincide with the

removal of Tickets, as it was no longer required. In April 2016, Roblox launched Roblox VR for Oculus Rift. At the time of release, more than ten million games were available in 3-D. In June 2016, the company launched a version compatible with Windows 10. While the game has had a PC

presence since 2004 with its web version, this is the first time it was upgraded with a standalone launcher built for Windows. The following month, during an episode of The Next Level, it was announced that Roblox would be ported to the PlayStation 4.

In April 2016, Roblox had 30 million monthly active users, and a peak of 900,000 concurrent users. On September 28, 2016, Roblox released R15, a new joint system for avatars that uses 15 joints instead of 6. Around the same time period, the safe chat feature was removed and replaced by a

system based on a whitelist with a set of acceptable words for users under 13 years old and on a "black list" for other users. This new system allows users under the age of 13 to create content on the website, which they were not able to do previously.

On January ### ##### ######## ######## designs for toys based on Roblox characters. The characters are similar to Lego minifigures, having interchangeable body parts, clothes, and tools. The toys were released on February 5, 2017.
