With the holidays wrapped up and a new year ahead of us, now is the perfect time to share some of the best content the LittleBigPlanet Karting community has to offer. In that spirit, the following list contains ten user-created tracks (in no particular order) made since Karting’s launch that have seriously impressed us one way or another. Have some favorites of your own? Let us know in the comments!
Remember, these are just the tracks we really like. There are tons of others worth exploring too — have fun!
If you were to visit the Media Molecule studio, you’d see that it’s very us. The pink carpets lead you through to a work space that’s filled with bright colours and interesting or curious things to look at. In a bid to keep our surroundings inspiring and as conducive to creativity as possible, we’re spoiled rotten with creature comforts and toys to play. To a visitor, all of this can make for quite a tour.
As a visitor though, you’d only get to see a brief glimpse of the studio – enough to take in the big picture, but not enough to truly get a feel for the place, and they say; the devil is in the detail. If you were able to spend more time here, you’d start to notice all the little things that are perhaps less immediately enticing as a ping pong table, but are far more interesting, and quite often, downright odd.
Christmas Day is but one sleep away now, so hopefully your presents are all wrapped and under the tree, your stockings are hanging up over the fireplace and you are all ready for your annual visit from everybody’s favourite jolly old fat man!
Before you all head off early to bed though, we have some festive cheer to spread around the LittleBigPlanet community including some wonderful levels and a few other treats for everyone.
With Christmas approaching, the LittleBigPlanet community have been out in full force with their festive creations to bring some holiday cheer to the Sackfolk across LittleBigPlanet.
LittleBigPlanet Karting is packed to the brim with opportunities to customize the way you play, from dressing up your Sackperson in the latest Sack styles to decking out your Pod with all the trappings of home. With that in mind, we’ve collected this list of handy tips and tricks that you can use to get the most out of the huge breadth of customization options available to Karting fans. Fancy yourself the creative type? Leave your own tips and tricks in the comments!

Playmakers looks into the latest innovations for creating and learning. Some time ago they paid a visit to Media Molecule to take a look into how LittleBigPlanet is leading the way in community development and community game design.
Take a look at this video from their visit and you’ll be able to hear some of the Molecule’s very own insights on just how LittleBigPlanet is a new and exciting learning tool that has helped develop a community full of game designers and reviewers.
To read more about Playmakers and their visit to Media Molecule, take a trip over to the Playmakers website.
What a whirlwind year this has been for LittleBigPlanet, we recently released two brand new games and we’re now heading into December, which can only mean one thing — Christmas is on the way!
To help kick the festivities into gear, we will be re-releasing the Santa Costume and Festive Minipack this week, which you can use to help craft your own Christmas creations.
This is just the beginning of the fun though! The Winter Seasonal Creator Kit will be seeing a release later this month too and we even have a couple more surprises for everybody to look forward to… More news on those soon, so stay tuned!
The Mm Picks this week include some classic platforming fun which finds Sackboy in A Sticky Situation, a real-mind bending journey through reality in Gap the Mind and a wonderful puzzle game in Drop Puzzle.
We have a brand new costume pack coming out this week containing Alias, Unica, Raven and Kat from Gravity Rush by our friends at SCE Japan Studio.
All of these costumes are available individually, or you can buy the full pack to receive a set of bonus stickers. These costumes will initially be available for LittleBigPlanet 2 and LittleBigPlanet PS Vita, with support for LittleBigPlanet Karting being added in the near future.

LittleBigPlanet Karting is now out across the globe, and the community have already jumped straight into the brand new story to help Sackboy in his latest adventure against the Hoard.

To help you find all of these creative wonders being published, we have a brand new website that will be joining our other LBP.me sites. Stepping on to the podium is…
