Creator Showcase: Matthew_James and his Simple World
For most of the creator blogs, we’ve focused a great deal on large beautiful showcases. In many showcases, there are vast, user-created worlds, that can transport users to places such as apocalyptic futures, Asian-style gardens, large oceans and so many more! Of course, these types of worlds as extremely impressive and it’s easy to lose yourself in them. Still, sometimes the best worlds are the smaller more simpler ones which focus more on details. Matthew_James’ showcase, Simplicity is one of these showcases. Featuring a small house on an island, it really does suit it’s name. However, one step inside of the house and you are met with a design full of intricacies. This house is full of small, impressive details, giving users much to explore, even though it’s a much smaller space. In this interview, Matthew_James discusses where he got the idea and how he got started as a builder on ROBLOX!

Creator Showcase: AgentTech Discusses his Passion for Building
What I absolutely love about showcases are how easy it is to completely immerse yourself in the world the builder wants to transport you to. There are many different types of showcases and many builders have multiple worlds that they’ve spent a great deal of time working to create and bring to life. One ROBLOX builder, Agent Tech, has created a couple of games which bring you into very different worlds. One world is Redsand Marina , a tropical boatyard and Overgrown Hideout , a room slowly being overtaken by the greenery surrounding it. In the many worlds AgentTech has created, we can see so much care went into buildings, scenery and even the boats! In this interview, AgentTech shares some of his building tips.

Welcome to the Jungle
Ever caught yourself wondering what it would be like if instead of people, there were only animals? Well not animals in the traditional sense per se, but anthropomorphic animals – which is just a fancy way of saying an animal that walks, talks, dresses, and for all intents and purposes, is a person. No? Well we did. It was great. Anyways, thanks to Disney’s Zootopia, in theatres in 3D March 4th, you can explore this idea! You can build your own house and wander the streets of a sprawling urban jungle, like there is actually a jungle in the city – it’s pretty awesome. Did we mention quests? Because there are. Complete the three quests to earn a unique Zootopia inspired prizes for each. And be sure to take in all the sights from Tundra Town to Sahara Square, but be on the lookout for predators! (Just kidding. Maybe.)
