Use playergui. Here's the link [https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/class/PlayerGui ] JesseSong 3916 — 4y

Hello! :D

Your problem here is that you are using StarterGui instead of PlayerGui. StarterGui is the Gui that you edited in ROBLOX studio. However, when the game starts up, the GUI's in StarterGui get cloned into each player's PlayerGui. Therefore, anything you script must be done so from the PlayerGui (If that didn't make sense, I'd be happy to try to explain it in a different way)

What you need to do is to detect which player clicked the pizza, so you would start your script off with this:

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(plr)

Then you need to change all of your "game.StarterGui" to "plr.PlayerGui"

Here's would be the solution to the first part of your script - if you can't figure out the rest I'm happy to help

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function() --This line has been edited
    script.Parent.Parent.SoundEmmiter.YumYum:Play()
    print("Somebody ate Altera's pizza!")
    wait(3)
    print("NOW THEY WILL PAY FOR IT")
    plr.PlayerGui.PizzaGui.Enabled = true --This line has been edited
    wait(1)
    plr.PlayerGui.PizzaGui.PizzaMessage.Text = "Mhmm.. This pizza tastes good!" --This line has been edited

I hope this helps! If you have any questions, please ask :)

To fix the screen gui, you would have to use PlayerGui which is located in game.Players.

script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function(Click)
    local Player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(Click) --gets the player
    script.Parent.Parent.SoundEmmiter.YumYum:Play()
    print("Somebody ate Altera's pizza!")
    wait(3)
    print("NOW THEY WILL PAY FOR IT")
    Player.PlayerGui.PizzaGui.Enabled = true
    wait(1)
    Player.PlayerGui.PizzaGui.PizzaMessage.Text = "Mhmm.. This pizza tastes good!"
    wait(4)
    Player.PlayerGui.PizzaGui.PizzaMessage.Text = "Uhm.. why do i hear boss music?"

    Player.PlayerGui.PizzaGui.Enabled = false
    wait(4)
    Player.PlayerGui.DiedScreen.Enabled = true
    Player.PlayerGui.DiedScreen.Front.DeadMessage.Text = "YOU DIED"
    wait(3)
    Player.PlayerGui.DiedScreen.Front.DeadMessage.Text = "you should have not ate that pizza.."
end)
