    This is the installation package.
    • On Chrome, click the bottom box and the bottom of your screen. It will automatically open. If you closed it, you can use Ctrl + J to check the download.
    • On Microsoft Edge, it will prompt you when it's done downloading.
  5. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/b\/b7\/12035295-5-2.jpg\/v4-460px-12035295-5-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/b\/b7\/12035295-5-2.jpg\/aid12035295-v4-728px-12035295-5-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>Image by: Uploader<br>\nLicense: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    A blue Roblox (Roblox Studio), will open up. It will tell you that it's installing. Depending on your network connection, the download time may vary, but it should be quick!
    • After it's complete, it might close, but don't worry. That's part of the process. When it closes, a new menu will open afterward!
  6. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/7\/76\/12035295-6-2.jpg\/v4-460px-12035295-6-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/7\/76\/12035295-6-2.jpg\/aid12035295-v4-728px-12035295-6-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>Image by: Uploader<br>\nLicense: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    After the installation menu closes, a new window will open up shortly. You'll see a log in menu.
    • In the Username box, fill in your Roblox username.
    • In the Password box, fill in your Roblox password corresponding to your account.
  7. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/8\/83\/12035295-7-2.jpg\/v4-460px-12035295-7-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/8\/83\/12035295-7-2.jpg\/aid12035295-v4-728px-12035295-7-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>Image by: Uploader<br>\nLicense: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    In there, select any template you want!
    • Your template isn't too important, depending on what exactly you want your game to be like.
  8. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/9\/90\/12035295-8-2.jpg\/v4-460px-12035295-8-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/9\/90\/12035295-8-2.jpg\/aid12035295-v4-728px-12035295-8-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>Image by: Uploader<br>\nLicense: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>"}

    It should be located on the top menu. A "model" is a combined object of parts, but you only need a part to make a kill block.
  2. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/2\/23\/12035295-10-2.jpg\/v4-460px-12035295-10-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/2\/23\/12035295-10-2.jpg\/aid12035295-v4-728px-12035295-10-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>Image by: Uploader<br>\nLicense: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    Click Part under the model tab. There should be a drop-down button once you click on it. Select the type of block you want to use.
    • It doesn't matter about the shape of the model. It all can be used as a kill block!

    The Explorer menu is the menu on the right side of your screen. Your part should be automatically named "Part." Find your part and click on it.
    • Remember to only click on it once.
  4. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/8\/8f\/12035295-12-2.jpg\/v4-460px-12035295-12-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/8\/8f\/12035295-12-2.jpg\/aid12035295-v4-728px-12035295-12-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>Image by: Uploader<br>\nLicense: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>"}
    It should be "Part +". Click on the + .
  5. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/9\/9d\/12035295-13-2.jpg\/v4-460px-12035295-13-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/9\/9d\/12035295-13-2.jpg\/aid12035295-v4-728px-12035295-13-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":728,"bigHeight":546,"licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>Image by: Uploader<br>\nLicense: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>"}

    Can you keep removing a certain amount of health or does it always have to kill you immediately?

    In the line humanoid.Health = 0, you can change the 0 to match whatever health you want the player to be when they touch the block.
