Bricklayer

About

Meet the dev.

Bricklayer is built by one person who wanted to make Roblox games without the setup getting in the way.

ABOUT ME

A bit about me.

Hi, my name is Advait, and I like programming in TypeScript, Python, and Lua. I also like PC building, computer hardware engineering, and garfield. Back then, I just liked Roblox and didn't know how to make games. I had no idea what print did or what variables were, so building a game was out of reach. I would have done anything for a tool like Bricklayer back then, so I made it for the next generation of Roblox developers. I hope you enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed making it.

WHY I BUILT BRICKLAYER

The setup was the hard part.

I made Roblox games, and I kept hitting the same wall. The AI coding tools that had gotten good were built for professional software engineers. They expected you to know Git, write Lua in a terminal, and wire up Rojo before you could write a single line. If you just wanted to build a game, that was a lot to learn before you got to the fun part.

Roblox Studio did not help much either. There was no clean way to let an AI read your scripts, change them, and see the game the way you do. You ended up copying code back and forth by hand, plus the built-in AI assistant wasn't really the sharpest pencil in the pencil case. It would often break your game, and you had to figure out what it did wrong.

So I built the thing I wanted. Bricklayer keeps your local scripts in sync with Studio for you. You pick a game, tell the AI what you want, and it builds while you play and test in Studio. No terminal, no setup rituals, no glue code.

I made it free because the tools that got me started were free too. I would rather more people got to make games than fewer. I really hope Bricklayer helps the Roblox development community thrive, and I hope you have fun making games with it.
