Competitive Game Ideas...

Archive: 7 posts


Sure building and playing cooperatively will be loads of fun, but what about competitive game modes? I've come up with some ideas that should be simple to create in LBP.

I think Racing is the most obvious. Basically, it consists of a normal platforming level and the players compete to get the fastest time, and try to slow down the others.

Another pretty obvious one is Capture the Flag. Basically, the teams compete to get an object and take it back to their base, and their rivals try to slap them to make them drop it. This could work with many team variations, like 1vs1, 2vs2, 1vs1vs1, or 1vs1vs1vs1. you get the idea.

Similar to the CTF game mode, Soccer. would be similar, but with a giant soccer ball, and the players have to try to get it to the goal.

King of the Hill would be fun, where there is a huge pile of junk, and the players have to see who can stay on it the longest without it being contested by slapping the other players off the mountain. This could also work similarly to a base capturing game mode.

These are just a few ideas I came up with, so post your competitive game mode ideas!

I had a couple in the 'Build the Pyramid' (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=p=15012#post15012)
thread, I hope it is OK if I repost them. :arg:




I just thought of an idea but it doesn't have necessarily have to do with pyramid building...

Like your idea, there are two teams & a variety of blocks are in the center.

A timer starts & the teams are forced to get blocks to their side & be placed on their side of a scale. When the timer goes off, the team that has the side of the scale that is leaning down (having the most weight upon it) is the winner. Some blocks would be heavier than others, which would make the teams compete more for those pieces. There are no limits on what team can do: they can stand on the scales if they want (although their weight is not nearly enough to win & that would be an unwise choice if they actually want to win), they can go to the other side of the scale (although the two sides of the scale are fairly far away from each other), & there is no 'cheating'.

I'll post a picture if I feel like it.




Woah. I just thought of an another minigame:

Again, teams would have to battle for blocks, so I will not explain that again for brevity's sake.

This time, each team will have a goal that they have to get to: except it is now really high in the air. So instead weight, the teams are going for height. Haha, it would be really annoying when the teams knock each other's towers down, so the Sackpeople will have to be really careful to make a sturdy tower with a good foundation. They could defend their towers by maybe building cannons to fend off attackers? Wow! We really need a Minigame thread!

Great ideas! I love games like this that are so dynamic in terms of freedom where the game's fun heavily relies on the players themselves! Some call it lazy, but my favorite feature in any game is creativity.2008-08-24 01:04:00

I'm sure LBP will be my favorite game because I haven't heard of another big videogame where the whole purpose is to make your own games.

Also, I have noticed you are new, why don't you introduce yourself here:

Alright, I've come up with one myself.

Castle Siege Alright, here's how this works, it's a 3 vs. 1 game, the person in the castle is alone. The people outside the castle's goal is to reach the throne in the middle of the castle. And of course, when they touch the throne, the castle falls apart. So, each team builds their own weaponry and well, try to kill each other. The person inside the castle will build things that keep the other out of the castle, while the others will try and break in.

Sounds fun, doesn't it?
