Clap Communications LLC (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Ikuko Kurata) announces that several students enrolled in the "Digital Creators Academy" (DCA), an online school operated by the company, have successfully achieved monetization through their Roblox games.
About Digital Creators Academy (DCA)
DCA is an online school designed to train students into "professional Roblox creators" in six months, starting from zero experience. We provide a practical curriculum that covers not only game development skills but also planning, production, publication, and monetization design. Since its launch in November 2025, the school has attracted a wide range of students, including working adults and those looking to start a side business, who want to challenge themselves in game development and digital creativity.
Student Achievements Six Months After Opening
Six months after opening, a survey of production achievements showed that multiple DCA students have achieved monetization with their Roblox games. Produced game genres are diverse, including Obby (obstacle course) games, action games, racing games, and item collection games, reflecting the creative ideas of each student. Additionally, examples of implemented in-game purchase features include skip functions, weapon/item purchase features, coin acquisition elements, and multiplayer elements, showcasing designs that balance player experience with in-game monetization. The core of the student body consists of working adults in their 30s to 50s who started with no prior experience in Roblox development. Some students are working on game development in tandem with their children, successfully stepping up from "playing" games to "planning, building, and publishing" them.
