Editor In-Chief 

This month I’m very 

excited to introduce someone 

whose reputation precedes 

them by almost as far as his 

experience has taken him: 

Quenty. He is undeniably one 

of the greatest and most reputable 

developers on and to 

have ‘graduated’ from Roblox, 

moving forward to incorporate 

projects out with Roblox to his 

extensive CV. I say ‘graduated’ 

loosely as Quenty is still, and 

possibly even more so than 

ever before, part of the Roblox 

community – lucky for us. A 

former Roblox intern, a current 

intern for Microsoft and an avid 

developer, it is no surprise to 

the extents of his fame - fame 

which he is so modest with. 

Having created models that we 

all probably have used, if not 

- certainly know of, such as his 

own Admin script, and learned 

a great deal from; and developer 

of his own game Whatever 

Floats Your Boat, an incredibly 

popular game with over 38 

million visits – having been live 

for less than a year, it is obvious 

why we wanted to talk to him 

so desperately. Luckily for us 

he agreed and now we have 

the rare opportunity to ask him 

a range of questions related to 

his vast and intriguing experience. 

Experience consisting of, 

but most definitely not limited 

to: the creation of his very own 

server-client module loader 

called Nevermore, an internship 

with Microsoft, and his 

very own Roblox toy – which is 

purchasable from Amazon. 

We also unravel the 

mysteries of the Roblox Accelerator 

Program, a program that 

is unheard of by most unless 

you already have made a start 

in the Roblox development 

world – which in my case 

means hurriedly researching 

the program, so as to seem 

like you understand it whilst 

editing. Though, unfortunately, 

applications for the program 

and its sibling the Incubator 

Program, for 2019 have now 

closed, you will most definitely 

be able to apply next year for 

the 2020 program. 

Exploring our roots, 

where we come from and who 

lived in our past, is something 

most people will do only once 

they have reached old age and 

become sentimental, but we’ve 

acquired such sentimentality 

early and look to see how 

Hidden Developers was started 

and what journey was taken 

to get to where we are now. 

If there are any dirty, naughty 

secrets – we want to know. 

HeadlessHorror is well 

known by anyone in the

Letter 

Hidden Developers’ community, 

but is also an amazing Mesh 

Designer and Builder. We’ve 

taken a look at one of the 

games he is working on: Yard 

Work Simulator. Though adverse 

to pretty much any form 

of exercise, we have trampled 

out of the house and into the 

yard to see how yard work 

again – except to go to RDC. 

On the topic of RDC, 

Roblox Developer Conference, 

we sent one of our Editors out 

into the world to experience 

RDC in the flesh. We’re hoping 

on return they have recovered 

from the excitement enough 

to tell us everything that happened. 

We’ll be bringing you 

Developers’ archive we feel 

rather at home in dark spaces, 

only fitting that we review 

Miner’s Haven. A game so 

simple in name your really can’t 

get confused. Reluctantly, we 

left such an exuberant haven 

to come back and tell the tale 

so you don’t have to bang your 

head in the mind shaft – or can, 

is done by the professionals, 

without the exertion. All we 

need now is to get an automated 

vacuum and we’ll never 

have to get up from our chairs 

a review on RDC next issue so 

you can decide if you wish to 

attend yourself or not. 

Having grudgingly 

trudged through the Hidden 

it’s your choice!

featured game: Miner’s 

FernandoMacLeod 

Writer 

Miner’s Haven was created by the famous developer, known as Berezaa. It is a grand strategy 

game, centred on the mining industry, that allows you to build and design how your ores are 

upgraded and processed into your credits that you can use to make more! Meet up with friends 

as your new ores are organized by your conveyors Collect chests to test your luck, and you might 

get a rare item! I promise that as you play this game, you will get more and more addicted to it. 

Travel the beautiful Miner’s Haven word, with so much to see. Receive fun and exciting items and 

creatures like the „Zwambie” and the „Ninja Diamond Mine.” Explore the item shop; remember to 

save your money because you want the best. Compete to get on the leaderboard - that can be 

found on the mountain. Don’t get annoyed, it is meant to be a challenge. Get more and more lives 

to help with your chances on the leaderboard. While you’re exploring the map, be sure to collect 

crates to get free loot! And don’t be scared of not knowing about new updates; check the word of 

the day for all news on the latest updates! Don’t be panicked to leave the game, the game automatically 

saves and still collects some of the money you’d receive otherwise. Be sure to be

actively checking Twitter where you can receive codes, because you don’t want to miss a secret 

code! I asked a player what their favourite part of Miner’s Haven was. „[I love] the building!” And I 

can’t help but agree, the building doesn’t take long to master, and it doesn’t have to be arranged 

to look good. Collecting items and adding items is fun and easy and I along with many others enjoy 

it, and I can’t blame them! So be sure to tell us what your favourite part of Miner’s Haven is too. 

So, let’s end the article with a conclusion. Miner’s Haven is an almost impossible game to top. It’s 

simple and takes a long time to not have fun.


Interview with Quenty 

Quenty tells us his 

exclusive interview wi 

In this issue of Just Create, Phenomizon and 

VeryRBLX invited Quenty for an interview, former intern at 

Roblox. He told us his roots on Roblox and his developing 

experiences. 

Quenty 

Roblox Developer 

When did you start developing on Roblox? 

I started developing on Roblox in 2009! 

How did you get into developing? 

My friend described Roblox as a place where you 

could make your own game, and you could do anything. I 

always figured that the coolest people on Roblox were the 

people who made things, and I wanted to be one of them. 

How was your experience working with Roblox? 

Working with Roblox has been great! 

What words of advice do you have for aspiring 

developers? 

| Showcase “A critique of fire” 

by Quenty. Fire in the forest was 

meant to symbolize spread of 

hate in social media. 

Try to finish something and publish it! I still have 

trouble with this, but in the end, if you don’t release your 

work, no one will get to see it. You may think something 

you’ve made isn’t as great as it could be, but that’s ok. 

Someone will love it regardless.



path through Roblox! 

th Quenty 

What was your first creation on Roblox? 

The first model I published on Roblox was a poorly made spaceship inspired by Avatar. It 

wasn’t great. 

What motivated you to become a developer on Roblox? 

I’ve always liked making things, and Roblox has been a great platform where I could make 

something and get instant results. That’s super cool! 

Can you describe the process of making a game? 

Generally I’ll sit down and figure out what we’re making. I’ll talk about what we’re trying to 

achieve and make sure there’s a good monetization strategy, a good idea of what the target audience 

is, and what platforms we want to support. Then it generally comes down to coordinating 

schedules, finding time to work on the game, and prototyping in a way that makes it easy to test. I 

think it’s really important to test your work against other things. 

How long did it take you to learn Lua? 

9 years! I’m still learning how to write effective Lua. While I have all the basics down pretty 

well, there are always things I can do to improve my programming ability. I don’t think I’ll ever 

stop learning. 

How did you find Roblox? 

A friend pointed it out to me on a long car ride home. They made me install it the next day 

and I’ve been hooked ever since. 

What impact has Roblox had on you? As a member of Roblox since 2009, what are your 

thoughts on how the Roblox development community has changed and grown? 

Roblox has defined my career and my aspirations. I probably wouldn’t be as good at programming, 

or maybe even programming at all, without Roblox. 

Be sure to follow Quenty on Twitter! 

@Quenty



I’m interning at Microsoft right now, something that probably wouldn’t have happened 

without Roblox on my resume. Roblox has opened so many doors for me! The Roblox development 

community has always changed and grown. There’s good and bad things with this sort of 

growth, but overall I think the resources available to new Roblox developers have never been 

greater. Roblox really is powering imagination, and the development community is key to this. 

The DevRel [Developer Relations] team does a great job responding to inquires in a timely manner, 

I couldn’t ask for a better set of people. 

What has your experience been as a QA tester? 

It turns out although I’m technically a QA tester; the amount of QA testing I do is limited. 

However, a lot of times the QA testers help me out with various projects. They’re part of the success 

behind each Roblox event game, and they don’t get enough recognition. 

What is it like to be a Roblox Developer during College, and how do people usually react when 

they find out? 

Being a Roblox developer is pretty neat while being in College because it means I can apply 

what I’ve learning in College to Roblox. Most people are pretty chill about Roblox. I don’t find 

many active players, but there’s often times people who know about it (or more often, someone 

younger who plays it). All my friends give me trash about it, and I’ll get Roblox memes thrown at 

me at random times. 

What made you want to create your own engine, Nevermore? 

Nevermore is just an attempt to reuse a lot of code on Roblox. I’m glad that other people 

are able to take advantage of the code that I’ve written. 

Having been one of the select few developers to have their own toy, what has it been like 

knowing that your Roblox avatar has become a household item to many people? 

It’s really neat, and a bit surreal. My Dad now has a great collection of Roblox toys that he 

keeps at work.” 

What is it like having such a large influence on the Roblox twitter and Roblox community? 

It’s really nice, posting things and having people like them makes you feel really good. 

However, the really great thing is forming all these lasting relationships with people in the Roblox 

community. It’s been really great. 

What inspired you to create Whatever Floats Your Boat? 

Someone showed me quick prototype of the basic gameplay. It was a ton of fun, and 

so after getting their permission to make the game, I quickly prototyped the game. One of the 

thoughts running through my mind at the time was “I’ve done a lot of Roblox development; I 

better have something to stick on a college application.” Fortunately, Whatever Floats your Boat 

turned out well.” 

Do you have any future projects in plan? 

Of course! I can’t talk about them at this time (they’re secret!), but I’m working on a lot of 

cool projects. Hopefully one will be announced around the time of RDC. I’ll probably never stop 

making things.

| “Canyon Heights” showcase by Quenty.



How was RDC 2018? 

RDC 2018 was great. I got to meet a lot of people, hung out with old friends, and got to 

make BLAST HOOK!

Q U E 

feat 

Quenty is one of many aspiring developers continually creating 

on Roblox. His work is varying from terrain, 3D models, scenery, and 

even plugins! Through Quenty’s career as a Roblox developer, he has 

used Roblox Studio to the best of his advantage. Including building, 

scripting, animating and more. 

Alan Fackler says that he is “known for his innovative and creative 

portfolio of Roblox creations.” Indeed, Quenty has created, throughout 

his time on Roblox, many games, of which many have become popular. 

Many of his most recent games use the Nevermore game engine 

that he has developed and released under the MIT License on GitHub. 

Nevermore is a complete game engine which suffers from incomplete 

documentation and provides modules that can be useful in many kinds 

of games: Quenty has developed it while developing his various games, 

many of which have remained incomplete, which explains why the features 

offered by Nevermore are so diverse. 

He has made many amazing creations on Roblox shocking to the 

eyes. One of many of his creations is the custom USS Monitor complete 

with 2x triple barreled howitzers and turrets! Taking sail in the USS Monitor 

keeping the seas safe with a correctly modeled USS monitor. Red 

and Gray were giving plenty of contrast and complimenting the build 

itself. Making use of Roblox Studio’s cutting parts and union, it has a stable 

shape and smooth edges. 

Quenty created a lot of games, but definitely, his most famous 

creation is game called “Whatever Floats Your Boat” with over 37 million 

visits and 118k+ thumbs up! It was created back in 2014, and it is still


N T Y 

ure 

being updated. Whatever Floats Your Boat is a unique blend of PvP, 

flood survival, and building. Players are given time to build a boat, and 

when the water rises, players are given weapons and can attack each 

other and destroy other each other’s ships. You get rewarded with money 

and Experience Points every time you survive a flood. Earn Experience 

points to level up to unlock more Props for more features! Building 

Mode is the period in the game cycle where water is not present on the 

map and players can safely build ships without fear of being attacked. 

It is highly recommended to only build and construct during this period 

as the threat of being attacked and bombed is excellent during the 

Flood. However, building time is short, as it only lasts for 150 seconds. As 

a final result, combat is disabled with ship cannons and players are not 

equipped with weapons. 

During the short time between building mode and the time when 

guns can finally fire, swords can do damage and can kill players. Weapons 

are the heart of the game, second to that of Building Props. Arms 

provide the method of killing the player only during the Flood, as it’s not 

possible to die during the Building Mode. Whether it be hand-to-hand 

combat, ranged firefights, or ship bombardments, the satisfaction of 

getting a kill for XP or destroying a ship is great fun. 

Quenty made a lot of useful plugins too. One of his latest plugins 

is allowing you to add terrain water without destroying terrain underneath 

or to convert parts to the terrain which can be useful. He created 

a lot of models too like ships, bridges, negative things, buildings, etc.

DataStores Tutorial 

what’s DataStores? 

..and how to script them! 

Voydex 

Writer 

To script DataStores, the Roblox Wiki has a trove of information. However, if you are new, 

you need to break the problem down. For example, if you want to store two items, and how 

many of each item a player has, and the corresponding item IDs then the only type of data structure 

that can store 2 values per one entry would be a multidimensional array, or a dictionary. In our 

case, using a dictionary will make the code easier to read and interpret, because for each Value (in 

our case the number) there is a Key (in our case “copies” or “id”). 

local baseData = { 

Hamburger = { 

copies = 1, 

ids = { 

1 

}}} 

Now we have our initial data structure. But, what do we do when a player joins? We need 

to check their data! If they have data, we use that, but if they do not, we use the initial data. To do 

so, we need to know two things about the location of the data. To “find” a DataStore, we use a 

key, and a scope. The Key is like a house name, and the Scope a road. You choose a road to go 

down, until you find the Key’s corresponding house. This house will be where you dump or have 

dumped all your data! 

However, we aren’t done yet! Once we have the house (Key), we need to find the exact 

room where we have all our data on the player. For this, we always use the player’s UserId property. 

Then we can append a string to the end of this UserId to obfuscate it, which is not usually 

necessary (here I use “Spaghetti”). By putting the above into a Players.PlayerAdded function, we 

can easily do what we need!

DataStores Tutorial 


local dService = game:GetService( “DataStoreService” ) 

local pService = game:GetService( “Players” ) 

local dKey = “Storage Slot 1” 

local dScope = “Fast Food” 

local dStore = dService:GetDataStore( dKey, dScope ) 

local obfuscator = “Spaghetti” 

local playerData = {} 

local function playerAdded( player ) 

local userId = player.UserId -- Never changes, hence why I use it here. 

local obfuscatedPlayerKey = obfuscator .. tostring( userId ) 

local pData = dStore:GetAsync( obfuscatedPlayerKey ) 

if pData ~= nil and pData ~= “nil” and pData ~= “null” then 

playerData[ player ] = pData 

else 

playerData[ player ] = baseData 

end 

end 

pService.PlayerAdded:Connect( playerAdded ) 

However, we have only ’gotten’ the data. Saving is shown below! It is linked to a 

Players.PlayerRemoving and by using this we can make the data only save when needed: when 

the Player leaves. However, it is recommended that you save more often than this, because this 

method may not work in all cases. 

local function saveData( player ) 

if playerData[ player ] then 

local obfuscatedPlayerKey = obfuscator .. tostring( player.UserId ) 

dStore:SetAsync( obfuscatedPlayerKey, playerData[ player ] ) 

end 

end 

pService.PlayerRemoving:Connect( saveData )

Roblox Accelerator Program 

Officially_MrDev 

Writer 

If you have been on Roblox for a while, you might have noticed that Roblox runs a program 

called the Roblox Accelerator Program. You may be wondering, like us, what on earth this is! 

The Roblox Accelerator Program is a unique program that Robloxians can sign up to each 

year. In the program, it gives Roblox developers a chance to earn money for making Roblox 

games. Roblox says that the Accelerator Program is ideal for people who are a knowledgeable 

Roblox developer who would like an exciting, fast-paced and intense, paid development program 

at Roblox’s HQ in San Mateo, California. They also state that this program is useful if you seek 

experience as a paid game developer or you want guidance from their production staff on an


tor Program

OISSUE 4 j ustCreate. 27 

existing project that you’re working on. They say that to join the accelerator program you have to 

be a hardworking individual or as part of a team and you strive to make incredible Roblox games. 

Two fantastic games that took part in the accelerator program are MeepCity Racing and 

Prison Royale. These games are both fully immersive and have incredible features in the game that 

other game developers have not been able to add to their game in the past. This reinforces the 

idea that the accelerator program is terrific. It brings out the best in Roblox developers and the 

Roblox staff themselves. It pushes them both to the limits. It also shows us that anything is possible 

when we work as part of a team. 

In an interview for the Roblox Blog, the Roblox staff and the developers of Prison Royale



both agreed that making the game was a real challenge. This was because they wanted to add a 

unique feature to the game that no other Roblox game had been able to have before. This feature 

was one hundred people in a server at one time. The developers wanted to make a one hundred 

player server where a hundred players could battle it out in an open world environment trying to 

find weapons to defend themselves and find food and drink to survive. 

The Roblox Accelerator program doesn’t just help you with developing Roblox games. It 

gives you a massive in sight to a lot more! It shows you what it is like to work at Roblox as a fulltime 

employee and gives you the chance to talk to some Roblox employees and see Roblox from 

their perspective. It also shows you what it is like to be a full time game developer. This could be 

a priceless opportunity if you are thinking of going down that career path. Not many people get 

that chance. Finally, if you are set on being a game developer, it will look amazing if you have it on 

your CV. It could be the tipping point to you getting your dream job. 

The Roblox Accelerator program is a fantastic program, and I would recommend it to any 

Roblox Developer who is serious about making an excellent game and is serious about becoming 

a game developer in the real world. It gives you the skills and experience no one else has in that 

industry and will give you a massive head start. 

The lesser known sibling on the Roblox Accelerator Program is the Incubator Program. 

Though neither of these programs are particularly new, invitations for the Incubator Program 

going out late 2016 and the Roblox Accelerator Program before that, neither are particularly well 

known. The Incubator Program is fairly similar to the Accelerator Program; it is a program where 

Roblox developers are invited to come along to the Roblox HQ and take an idea “from 

inception to completion”. The Incubator is a more elite version of the 

Accelerator Program for developers who already have a 

strong footing in the development world. If you’re not 

quite there, I completely recommend at least applying for 

the Accelerator Program. 

We’d like to congratulate everyone who 

were accepted into 2019 Roblox Accelerator 

and Incubator program!

E3 is the world’s biggest game conference 

which is based in the USA. Hundreds 

of game development companies from all 

around the world including Microsoft, Bethesda, 

and Sony go there to announce their 

up and coming games and to tell people of 

updates to their current games. Some of the 

many big companies that did shows this year 

at E3 are EA, Microsoft, Bethesda, Ubisoft, 

Sony, and Nintendo. 

which would consist of many characters including 

Anakin and Obi-Wan Kenobi. Not long 

after this, they announced that they are working 

on a darker Star Wars game called Star 

Wars: Fallen Order. Finally, they finished off 

At EA’s conference, they started off by 

announcing some new sports games. Some 

of the many sports games they announced 

where FIFA 19 and NBA 19. After that, they 

announced to the people listening that there is 

going to be an update to Star Wars Battlefront 

2. The update included a new clone wars DLC

that Sea of Thieves was getting two new expansion packs. This news 

was quickly followed by Microsoft announcing a new Forza game 

called Forza Horizon 4. After that, Microsoft showed a trailer for a 

new Tomb Raider game and a trailer for a new skateboard game 

called Session. Finally, Microsoft finished their ridiculously long conference 

with a trailer for another exciting match called JustCause 4. 

This is the 4th installment in a fantastic game series. JustCause 3 was 

terrific compared to JustCause 2, so a lot of people are expecting a 

lot from this game.



In Bethesda’s conference, they told people that they are working on making an Elder Scrolls 

mobile game. This was quickly followed by a trailer for a new Doom game called Doom Eternal. 

This was followed by a joke trailer for Skyrim Special Edition. Shortly after showing that trailer they 

spoke more about Fallout 76 and what the game will include. This was quickly followed by a short 

trailer for a space game called Starfield. Finally, they announced the production of the new Elder 

Scrolls VI. 

Next, I will talk about Ubisoft’s conference. Ubisoft started with a stage performance 

to announce the release of Just Dance 2019. After this, they showed the audience a trailer for the 

highly anticipated game called The Crew 2 and announced that it was entering Open Beta that 

day. An Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey trailer was shown closely followed by a trailer for the last of us 

Part 2. Next was a trailer for a samurai game called the Ghost of Sushima. This is an action-packed 

battle game, and the trailer showed a lot of interesting concepts for the game. A Resident Evil 

2 Remake was then announced, and just after that, they showed some gameplay for a Walking 

Dead style game. Finally, they finished off their conference by revealing their new spiderman 

game called Marvel’s Spider-Man. Everyone thought the graphics were excellent and the trailer 

for it showed Spiderman fighting lots of known villains escaping prison and ended by showing 

Spiderman on a roof about to fight what looked like the villain’s leader. 

Finally, Nintendo did a short conference. They started off by announcing that many games, 

which includes Fortnite, are coming to the Nintendo Switch. They also showed a trailer for an anime 

game and a trailer for Emblem 3. 

There was so much shown this year at E3 including so many great games. It’s such a great 

game conference and it is always so exciting. Did you watch it? Why not try watching it next year. 

It’s worth it and it is delightful!

site now, developer products and game passes are often set to high prices in which are not always 

affordable and those that are, not particularly worth what you actually get with them. In Yard 

Work Simulator the main developers, HeadlessHorror and YT_IntelPlayz, have thought very 

smartly giving people the best for their money within the game. 

I managed to catch a small interview with the development team of the game. 

I 

So people think these simulator games are easy to build, but 

are they really? 

MrAsync 

They really aren’t. There’s more to it than meets the eye. For example, the system 

that’s sets the player up with his or her backpack and tools and stats when they 

join the game is 560 lines of code. 

II 

What’s different about Yard Work Simulator? 

The difference between YWS and other simulators is all our updates are fan 

driven. We strive to make the fan base / community around the game happy!

III 


Is there anything that we should be looking out for to be added 

HeadlessHorror 

to the game any time soon? 

The games future is very promising, what you see in the current live version is 

without any doubt undergoing major change, although I don’t want to spoil all 

the fun I’ll definitely give out some of the things we’re bringing in the near and far 

future. 

In the next few updates we want to get: 

• A new area/zone out for players to explore and adventure through 

• Script optimisation to allow for better performance and major improvements 

with the current game such as User Interface improvements (such as prompts 

for rebirthing and selling when your backpack is full) 

• Particles + sounds when doing actions such as selling, farming, entering portals 

and other interactive areas of the game. 

IV 

The game is relatively new and already attracted 1million visits! 

Where do you see the game and its community going in the 

HeadlessHorror 

future? 

The game is definitely doing well, a massive thanks for Tofuu’s support with the 

video he created on our game where he was given our ‘admin tool’; which is 

a super bright and vibrant tool that not many users will and have ever seen ingame. 

The future of YWS is very promising in our eyes. As we are listening to our

42 justCreate. ISSUE 4 up and coming game: Yard Work Simulator 

player base and strive to provide weekly updates, to make sure the game covers 

the market. A massive help is from MrAsync where he visited Roblox’s Headquarters 

in California to visit, he spoke to multiple Roblox Staff members, one of which 

was Roblox’s stream team manager which means we may be seeing our game 

played on stream in the near future and the person in charge of featured games. 

V 

What was the hardest and the most fun part of this project? 

MrAsync 

The hardest part of the development Yard Work Simulator is making the mechanics. 

It’s not easy to do the things we do. There’s always going to be bugs. Some 

are easy some are hard to patch. It’s frustrating when you hear about someone 

with a pretty bad bug, and patching it takes a while. The most fun part of developing 

is seeing the end game. After we spend countless hours developing, it’s 

nice to see the final product. 

VI 

Any last statements you would like to make about the game? 

If I had to give a last statement I would say I feel like part of the Roblox community 

frowns upon simulators but give us a try who know ya might like it!

Developer’s questions 


Developer's questions! 

and our tips 

Question 1 answered by DBrambo 

„ What are some tips you have for people when planning out a build, 

and/or doing a build with a team of people? ” 

One major thing you’ll need to know about teamwork [is that]. It doesn’t 

just always work.” Expect problems in your team, [as] not everyone will agree with you or each 

other. This usually causes a delay in development. So if you have a goal that you want to achieve 

and need some support, try to make sure that everyone is on the same line first: Get the plan on 

the table, and change it together so it fits everyone’s own vision of the project. Want to design a 

new vehicle? Make some concept art, send it to your team, let them discuss it, and see the reviews 

flowing in. So work on your communication skills, this way it will all go smoothly (unless you 

have got a really stubborn lad in your team). 

Question 2 answered by Weebo (gomenasaiOniiChan) 

„ How much time does an average developer take to learn Lua?” 

You never really stop learning, but you will eventually learn how to use the basics of the language 

(and API for Roblox) and how they work, me personally it took me a few months to even get 

to a point where I could script without constantly looking back on whatever wiki page or YouTube 

video I was learning from. The time it takes depends on the person. 

Still hungry? Feel free to ask us more on 

Twiiter!

Interview with IvanderC4D 


We sat down with IvanderC4D for coffee and a small chat to ask him a few questions. 

What inspired you to start graphics? 

IvanderC4D 

Graphic Aritist 

I was in a Facebook group when my friend (nanda000) started making amazing graphics. I 

tried to ask him of how to do it and he taught me a lot of stuff. 

When did you make your first graphic? Who was it for? 

I made my first graphic for myself as a test, but my first real commissioned graphic was for 

one of my friends in a Facebook group who was interested in my stuff. 

What was it like designing for the first time? 

It was really hard so I always had to ask my friend, how to that and how to do this. 

What do you do when you’re not making graphics? 

I play games like such as Roblox, CS:GO, Overwatch, etc. 

What software do you use when designing graphics? 

When I first started, I used blender for about the first six months then I got frustrated of how 

it works and why am I not improving, so I moved to Cinema4D because I have friends who use it 

and told me its way easier to use than blender. 

How long do you normally spend on one graphic? 

I spend up to two days; my quickest render ever only took probably about two 

minutes. 

Do you only design Roblox themed Graphics? 

I only do Roblox graphics if it involves 3D rendering, but I do well when I try other types of 

graphics as well. 

All in all, how has your experience been ever since you started doing graphics? 

I have met a lot of great friends, either whom I met from twitter or through one of my commissioners. 

I have felt the feeling of how it feels to be decent at graphics which was my aim when 

I first saw my friend’s graphics.

| Falort’s graphic, the best community creation of Issue 4. Congratulations!

Hello everyone and 

today we are going to look at 

a graphics design by Falort. 

Falort is an incredibly talented 

member of the Hidden Developer 

community. This design 

is fantastic in my opinion, and 

I can tell a lot of work was put 

into it. I know this may sound 

petty, but I love how much detail was 

put into the floor of the design. It just 

shows how much time was set into 

the smallest of areas. The fireballs in 

above the character model look fantastic 

with the blur effect. Each fireball 

has a different fire angle in its way. I 

can see Falort being an inspiration to 

new graphic designers. The Character


U N I T Y 

ions 

design blends perfectly into the plan, the 

simplistic design of where the hands and legs 

make it look perfect. The Character model is 

only one color yet with the effects it seems 

excellent with only one color. The weapons 

are dull and unfortunately not blending in 

with the blur effects. Before we finish, let’s 

look at the background behind this design. 

This design was for Falort’s friend who 

wanted herself recreated into an anime character. 

This explains the fireballs and fighting sticks. 

In the end, this is a great article, which fits the 

anime art style perfectly. Even though this design 

has some downsides, that’s only my opinion, and 

to be honest, every design has a disadvantage. 

We've also chosen one more community 

creation! Check it out on the next page.

| Physx’s graphic “Illustrious” was the best from all 15 submissions we’ve received for the additional comm

unity creation. The color blending and mirrors are just astonishing! Excellent job!

War groups and their RP aspects 

from Rome to Coru 

war groups and their ro 

Nerdking2002 

Writer 

The appeal of war groups in Roblox. 

| “Roman Iberia” is a place 

where you can roleplay as a 

Barbarian, join the Roman Senate 

or be a Spartan. 

Why are they so popular? I, myself, enjoy these war 

groups more than I enjoy standard Roblox Games from 

the front page. 

The attraction to most is the Roleplay aspect behind such 

groups. An example would be DoomForger’s Imperium of 

Man, where you can choose to be a Guardsman and attempt 

to work up the ranks, a member of the Law enforcement 

Adeptus Arbites, or a legendary Space Marine. 

There is a strict hierarchy in such groups, with promotional 

systems and organization to allow for a streamlined 

system. I will be using DoomForger’s IoM and Marcus- 

NervaAugustus’ Senate and the People of Rome as examples. 

Going through these groups and spending time 

in both gives exceptionally different experiences. In the 

IoM, you are a soldier working for the Emperor. What are 

known as raids are called against other groups, where 

both groups pit their fighters against each other. Most likely 

in a Sci-Fi setting. 

If you go to Rome, you meet a more Diverse group. You 

may join a Legion which has its Hierarchy, each Legion is 

running independently with a different organization, and 

you can fight for Rome against Barbarians. You can join 

one of the two political bodies, and write laws to establish 

a better community or run for a political office. 

You can join Colleges, such as the Gladiators. Become a 

Judge, or work as a Slave.

War groups and their RP aspects 


scant.. 

leplaying aspects 

All the groups I have mentioned give that Rare Roleplay aspect that is entirely free and 

immersive. These groups test your command ability, your discipline, your combat skills, all you can 

develop by spending time in these groups. 

They are not just limited to the Warhammer 40’000 universe or Rome. You have Starwar’s 

Groups, all Era’s and Factions. World War Army’s with over one-hundred-thousand members. You 

can even become a Knight fighting for the Templars. 

Such is the appeal of War groups. They are interactive, fun, character building, and I endorse 

them heavily.
