Roblox Obby Level 2: Code Moving Platforms and Checkpoints

Learners who have built a simple obby are ready to make it smarter. In this eight-week Level 2 course learners use Lua to code the features that make popular obbies feel polished and challenging.

The course starts with a review of parts and events, then moves quickly into checkpoints. Learners script checkpoints that save a player's progress and respawn them at the right stage. They add a stage counter on the leaderboard so players can see how far they have come. Next learners code hazards, including kill bricks, rotating sweepers and lava that rises over time, using loops and TweenService for smooth movement.

In the middle weeks learners build timed challenges such as disappearing platforms and doors that open for only a few seconds. They add a speedrun timer that starts at the beginning and stops at the finish, and they display a player's best time. In later weeks learners create a skip-stage button for practice mode and a victory area with confetti effects.

The teacher explains each piece of code line by line and encourages learners to customize values to adjust difficulty. Learners test each other's obbies and give feedback on fairness and fun.

By the end learners will have a polished, coded obby with saved progress and timers. Learners should have built a basic obby or completed a beginner Roblox course.

How classes work

Each class explains one obby feature with live coding. Learners add it to their own obby, adjust difficulty and test with classmates.
