Issue #17! This is our second issue with our new “issue
every month” idea, and it’s... sort of working out.
However, we need more staff! During this month, we
WILL be hiring again. Keep an eye on the group to see
when we are hiring! In the meantime, have fun reading
this issue, rereading it, telling your friends about it,
telling your family about it, or whatever you do with
these magazines.

Fight zombies with an epic fort and super cool guns in Skaakra’s Zombie Defense. This classic tycoon has been around since before I joined Roblox, and still has some of the greatest scripting I’ve seen in a tycoon. Survive endless regular zombies while you build up your base, and ever crawl into the sewers to fight Cursed Zombies! This is sure to become a favorite instantly. I give this game 9 out of 10.

Review By: Lukelikepie554 Rumor has it that deep inside Area 51, there are labs in which scientists watch over all the aliens of Robloxia, while learning about them and studying them. In Area 51 Tycoon by Pizzapie7, you can become one of those scientists as you build up your lab to prepare you for the most shocking secrets known to the The Aldess Sanctum Creator: HotThoth Visited: 500

Uncover the secrets of the old wizard’s meeting place in The Aldess Sanctum by HotThoth. Wander around the vast moving staircases and make your way to the portal. The immense magic that takes place here results in a great game that will keep you searching for the end for a long time. I give this game 10 out of 10! Juggernaut Creator: Ozzypig Visited: 500,000 Visits
Review By: SuperSy Ozzypig is known for his brilliantly scripted games, and Juggernaut is no exception. A maximum of nineteen players are pitted against the one ‘Juggernaut’, who has boosted speed, boosted weapons, and a lot of health. There are three classes to choose from, each with a variation of a healing ray, a sword, and a bow. The more damage you deal or people you heal the faster your experience and money rises, opening up a variety of boosts you can use. The maps are simple and well built, yet all are similar in style; this makes each round feel the same as the round before, especially because with such large servers its rare to get chosen as the Juggernaut. I would give this game an 8/10, I suggest you pay Juggernaut a visit!
Change
Change: to make or become different. Recently, ROBLOX has been
changing A LOT. Many updates are coming to ROBLOX, but for one,
there has also been an unfortunate change in management. The
CoFounder of ROBLOX, Erik Cassel, passed away on February 11,
2013. Erik Cassel has been battling cancer for a long time; he will be
missed by us all. On a lighter note, theres tons of changes coming
that will benefit all ROBLOXians! There is also RGC 2013 which will
be taking place in the summer. There will be 4 locations this year!
RGC will be taking place in Chicago, San Francisco, London, and
New York City. They are covering most of the world, so hopefully you
will be able to attend! So, ROBLOXians, get ready, and be prepared
for change.

Tips for a Successful Game
This report may be a little different than what the common reports
are in RoGo Magazine, but today I'm going to share some tips with
you for a successful game. First off, the most important aspect of a
successful game is that you have a totally original idea. Do NOT steal
someone else's idea. Number two, spend time creating the game.
Don't just slap a game together in 30 seconds, actually spend time
and thought making it. Number three, make it look good. Don't make
it look like a 2 and a half year old made it, make it look very nice.
Scripting may help a lot in game creation. It's fine if you can't, but I
would suggest you do. Number four, try not to use to many free
models. I personally don't have anything against free models, but a
lot of people do; I suggest you only use a few if you really have to.
Finally, advertise. Advertising is extremely important. Without
advertising, your game will have a slim chance of getting noticed.
Now next time you make a game, keep these tips in mind, and good
luck!

Interview with Ozzypig
What are you most known for on ROBLOX?
I am most know for creating The Hunger Games by Ozzypig, a
survival game. It became very popular and many people know my
name because of it.
What is your favorite thing to do on ROBLOX?
Testing my own games for game play once you have worked out
the bugs in a new game, you become free to play with the numbers
and make a game fun for all.
What is your favorite game on ROBLOX?
It has probably got to be SFOTH. I like sword fights on ROBLOX.
How did you hear about ROBLOX?
Through an advertisement on yo yo games.com
What is your biggest goal?
To be the leader in original game creation on ROBLOX.
What inspired you to begin learning lua?
The motivation to make my own cool things on ROBLOX. That
eventually led to my desire to make fun games.
Do you have anything else to say to the readers of RoGo?
1) Be motivated. Be original. Be smart.
2) Do things because you want to, not because you have to or get to.
3) Take risks, but be smart when striving to do greater than you ever
have done before.
We didn’t receive any paragraphs for the last issue, so we will be continuing with
the previous one. We left the readers to write a paragraph about the title,
“Captain RoGo, the Defender of RoTopia.” We picked our favorite, and here it is!
The second paragraph was written by SuperSy.
---Captain RoGo, the Defender of RoTopia
As Lord OgOr’s finger closed on the trigger, Captain RoGo lifted his wrist watch in
front of him. Just in the nick of time, the death ray glanced off of the watch’s
reflective surface and instead hit a nearby building. The explosion sent a shower
of debris hurtling towards the ground where a group of innocent citizens stood,
awaiting their impending doom. Captain RoGo swooped towards the sidewalk
and pushed the people out of the way, just as the building’s bricks smashed into
the ground. He looked up towards the skies only to find Lord OgOr was nowhere
to be seen. After a brief moment of silence, the ground beneath the captain
started to rumble. The street in front of him was torn apart, sending a line of
This paragraph needs to be continued! Here’s the
instructions:
We will have you, the readers, send in a paragraph to
RoGoMagazine about that title, leaving it off with a
“cliffhanger” (suspense until the next paragraph.) The
presidents and CEO would choose the paragraph they
like the most, and it will then be featured in the next issue.
In the next issue, we will have someone send in a
paragraph continuing the previous one, and the process
will continue. In the end, we will have an amazing story
written by the fans of RoGo.
Send your paragraph, being three to four sentences long,
to RoGoMagazine with the subject “The Open Book” for
easy organization.
parked cars down into a deep hole in the Earth. Similar quakes were happening
all over the city. Captain RoGo scanned the skies for any sign of OgOr, but he was
nowhere to be seen.
The Blackboard. A pristine, fine piece of black slate covered
with... emptiness. Either the RoGo janitor came in and wiped
the Blackboard clean when I wasn’t looking, or no one sent
anything in. Unfortunately, it’s the latter. And unfortunately for
our janitor, the news didn’t come in any sooner, because we
just fired our janitor. So, instead of using the Blackboard as a
“help wanted ad” for a replacement RoGo janitor, here’s an
interview with RoGo super fan, Ianliu12345.
What do you like about RoGo? What I like the most about RoGo is RoGo's creation. The idea of the initial ingame Internet system was an amazing idea, and completing it would be an outstanding feat. The sad part was the system failing, but allowing the magazine idea to pop up. The magazine is obviously the best part of RoGo up to this date. How did you first learn about RoGo (if you remember)? I never learned much about RoGo until the RoGo site launched. When I read that history page on the site, that's when I learned about RoGo. I then payed little attention to what RoGo was doing, yet I still remember a lot of what happened. What is your biggest goal in ROBLOX? My biggest goal in ROBLOX is to have a lot of other people to know me and to build a good reputation. I want people to realize that if they played one of my games, they would know who I am and not just some other game maker. Is there anything that you want to share with the other RoGo fans? Never buy potatoes from a tomato farm.And with that, another section of the RoGo Blackboard closes. As we
search for another janitor, make sure to fire up a message to
Joshuats if you’re interested in getting something published for the
RoGo Blackboard.
