Sackboy in the News:
Since it’s been a while since our last “Sack it to Me,” here’s a list of links of the latest news around the web:
- New York Launches Public School Curriculum Base on Playing Games
- LittleBigPlanet team wants to work with Studio Ghibli
- LittleBigPlanet Demo Live
- Adorable New LBP PSP Screenshots
- Origins of LittleBigPlanet
@ the PlayStation Store
Over at the PlayStation Store, the LittleBigPlanet Demo (FREE) has been a big hit, and the new LBP Dynamic PS3 Theme ($2.99) continues to find new homes. I love the idea of Sackboy running all day, everyday. Don’t forget to check these out when you get a chance.
Community Picks
Our friends at LBPCentral.com have a new round of Community Picks. Have fun playing these GEMS:
Up & Away in Sky Town by jump_button
My thoughts: From a great gameplay hook (involving a single red helium balloon) to a visual style that can only be described as “beautiful,” this is definitely one of the best levels LittleBigPlanet has to offer. Don’t miss it.
Lafarge’s Request by Keldur
Part 2 is here.
My thoughts: Reminiscent of “The Islands”, “Lafarge’s Request” is a platforming level at heart, but it comes with enough creative innovation to keep you on your toes. Definitely a must-play.
Destiny! by CuzFeeshe
My thoughts: The premise of this level is simple: a cosmic storm is tearing apart your ship, and you’re the only one left who can save it! You’ll love the creative, fastpaced puzzles, and for those of you who can’t keep up, you can still move on (albeit with less points than you would have if you beat it). Give this level a shot – you’ll be glad you did.
Workshop of the Week
Ever want your Sackboy to teleport? Chaotictails put together a great tutorial here (even in the LBP presentation theme) to show you how. Great stuff!
Mm.com Goodies
Media Molecule has a new DevFace podcast focused on their teams designers. Get to know Mark and Danny and what they love about designing levels in LBP.
@49……It is and he is….I know CCubbage
well I looked it up and couldnt find ccubbage. Then I found that same level as in the video but by a different author “CuzFeeshe”
Dont know why that would happen if it works on yours but not mine. Have you tried the search engine to look for it?
Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli collab!? I was thinking a while back that Miyazaki/Ghibli film character sackboys would be awesome. Sack Howl Pendragon,Sophie, Calcifer and Turniphead!!! Sack Totoro!! It’s awesome that the team is interested! If you guys are fortunate to work with them one day I hope that it’s not just for costumes I’d love to see levels too.
Totally…..http://www.lbpcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14644&highlight=destiny
lol i know him ;)
Hmmmm…I wonder if anyone knows me :p
Cute
LittleBigPlanet team wants to work with Studio Ghibli
Im a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuggee fan of Studio Ghibli , this made my day!
What content did you guys censor this time and what religion did you censor it for?
I’m really upset that I bought LittleBigPlanet when it was relatively new, and now that the Game of the Year edition is out, everyone is getting free maps but us veteran players, who are your biggest fans…
Can’t see paying for the same game twice. With all the DLC content for this game you should of offered it as a Down load for your customer who suppoerted this game the first time around.
Can we have the dlc for free eventually?
When are we getting water?
Wow, that’s great. I really wish I could play my copy of Little Big Planet, but guess what? Firmware 3.00/3.01 disabled my bluRay drive so I can’t. Sony, please acknowledge and fix the issue.
I <3 LBP!!@!
On a side note, I also just got a casting call for The Tester from Iconic Casting. So freaking awesome :B
@ Mark Valledor
would you be able to tell us when the sackboy avatars are coming out? as I assume they will be part off a store update
much appreciated :D
So what religion was the GOTY version censored for and what content was censored?
Hey guys! I noticed my level “Destiny!” is in the list, thanks!
I also noticed there is a bit of confusion…. CCubbage is my ACTUAL name, but CuzFeeshe is my psn account that “Destiny!” is published under.
Anyone know who I could contact to get that changed?
so, when’s the water coming? hopefully it will be a full-fledged expansion with lots of new levels for the Story Mode
@6 poodude
You just proved Scodo_Thope’s comment completely valid by over-reacting to it. Stop jumping to the defense of people who are in no danger!
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but banning them to prevent further injury solves nothing.
Amazing graphics dudes.
Does anyone have any idea when water’s being released? Because I don’t :3
@Korbei83
I like the Sticks and Stones quote. That yours?
It looks fun to buy and im looking forward to playing it.
Hey I need more stuff to build with in LBP. The main things I need is lights that look like bulbs and a flourecent tube maker. And some reflective material
if i get little big planet game of the year edition can i play with my friends who have the orignal one?
Do you know how to get get the sephiroth costume thats the best one ive seen made yet will it be out with the content
Hey I heard there will be ummm water pack when is that gonna come out or is that a rumor?!
Being a late comer to little big planet and the PS3 (because of cost) I missed things I kept up with via the internet.
Do you think I will get a chance to get the pumpkin outfit someday or is that gone forever?
