How-to: Lua Coding Introduction (Hour of Code Pt. 1)
In this tutorial, UristMcSparks guides you through the basic concepts and tools of scripting and coding in ROBLOX with Lua. You’ll learn how to write a basic script, define variables, and create functions. These are the foundations to eventually making your own game!
As part of Code.org’s global Hour of Code event, we are publishing a series of introductory scripting tutorials that you can follow at home to learn how to create basic elements of a platformer (or “obby”) game of your own.
