Does your child love Roblox? There are 40 millions games on Roblox, and enjoying Roblox is a great way for friends to hangout together. So why not go from playing to learning and creating, while having just as much fun? Take a big step forward with your Roblox experience by actually creating your own Roblox games!
In this unique live interactive class, students will learn how to use Roblox Studio to create customized worlds and code Roblox games. Coding is done via Lua, the official coding language for Roblox game development. The course starts with foundational coding concepts such as loop and conditional to get students familiar with Lua, and gradually goes deeper to more advanced coding concepts and Roblox game making techniques. It is entirely project based, and we will be building multiple fun games. All classes run live online with at most 3 students in each group so everyone get a lot of personalized help from our experienced instructors.
This is an intermediate level class. For students that are grade 6 or younger, we highly recommend starting with Beginner Roblox Game Coding Class, which also uses Roblox studio. We also recommend taking Python first to get familiar with text based coding in order get most out of this Roblox coding class.
Roblox Studio Intro - First Project
If you believe this Roblox Coding with Lua class is the right class for you, but you have never used Roblox studio, go through this free self-guided Roblox Studio tutorial to download and install Roblox Studio. The tutorial will also teach you how to create a simple fun Obby Game!
If you prefer to join an intro class with a live teacher, sign up for Beginner Roblox Game Coding - Free Intro class. It covers the same content as the tutorial. Please note that this live intro class is mostly for younger students, while our Coding with Roblox Studio in Lua class is for grades 6-12 only.

Part 1 of this course introduces the basics of Roblox coding through fun, hands-on game development. Since most students are new to complex coding environments like Roblox Studio, we begin by exploring its two main aspects: building and scripting. For building, students will learn how to navigate the workspace, work with objects, and configure object properties such as color and texture. For scripting, we start learning Lua, the text-based programming language used in Roblox Studio. For many learners, this will be their first experience with text-based coding. Students will learn how to code with Lua and apply essential coding concepts such as conditionals, loops, and variables to Roblox game making.
One of the most powerful aspects of Roblox coding is the ability to create multiplayer game experiences quickly. In part 2 of this Roblox Coding with Lua series, students learn how to build multiplayer games so they can invite their friends to play their games together - which is both fun and motivating! We will also go deeper with coding concepts in Lua scripting to learn functions and event handling, while continuing to reinforce previous programming concepts.
The learning and fun continue with part 3 of this Roblox coding class. We will move one big notch up to build two more fun games. Students will learn how to create a little economy in your game by collecting goodies off a conveyor belt, earning coins, and exchanging for droppers and treasures. We will also learn how to build multiplayer games where players interact with in-game characters (NPCs) with some simple intelligence. We will cover advanced coding concepts such as tables, and fairly complex use of variables and functions.
Please take Beginner Roblox Game Coding class (https://www.create-learn.us/coding-for-kids/beginner-roblox) first before taking this class, unless you are already very familiar with text based coding such as Python, Javascript, Java, or Lua.

Yes, Roblox can be educational—especially when learned through structured coding courses and Roblox coding camps!
Coding with Roblox Studio enables students to build fun games while developing real coding skills. Through creativity and problem-solving, anyone from beginner to expert can design and develop games on the platform.
Yes, Roblox is a powerful tool for teaching coding.
By using Roblox Studio, students can create projects—even if they’ve never used a gaming platform before. Roblox offers many sample projects to inspire creativity and innovation.
For younger students, we recommend starting with Scratch coding before transitioning to Roblox.
Older students can jump right in with our free Roblox class.
Roblox coding is a great way to engage kids while teaching them important programming skills.
Depending on your child’s age and coding background, consider starting with one of these classes:
If your child is new to coding:
Beginner Roblox Game Coding uses block-based coding, making it easier for younger students to learn.
Coding with Roblox Studio in Lua uses Lua, a text-based scripting language. Both use Roblox Studio, the official game development platform for Roblox.
For students interested in the Lua course, we highly recommend learning Python first. This foundational knowledge will make Lua coding much easier to master.
Roblox coding is moderately challenging and a great next step for kids learning to code.
For students in 5th grade or younger, it’s best to first master Scratch coding and ideally other block coding platforms before moving on to Roblox. While students can learn Roblox before learning Python or JavaScript, having a basic understanding of Python will help them get more out of it.
With Roblox, students design their own games using Lua. After a simple platform install, students quickly begin using Lua to program and share their games.
In Create & Learn’s Coding with Roblox Studio, students enjoy live online instruction and personalized attention—making the learning process highly accessible.
Roblox uses Lua, a lightweight and easy-to-learn scripting language. Lua is widely used in game development and can also be embedded into other programs such as games and web applications.
