Return to Spare Change now even nicer! Moderation proof!

Archive: 3 posts


Hello LBPcentral, I am overwhelmed by the support I found here, and wish to invite you all to play my level that was moderated over LBP drama. This level like many others was attacked by a small group in LBP and was moderated. I had to rip my level apart and still could not manage to figure out what it was.
Anyhow, through some "capturing objects" and some of the memory i have left i managed to remake my level. I have made it super friendly, more then before, which many thought wasn't possible.
I feel for others that have had to do this method to get thier level back, cutting, replaying for the 1000th time. but i did it mostly for my misses who never plays video games but she loves this level and claims it is her favorite. just to see her smile while playing it was worth the work. Please have fun, and take with you the kindness of patiance in online play,( which is why my misses hates playing lbp without me, everyone likes to rush). really thank you all, and i look forward to playing more of your awesome levels in LBP.

Ok, good morning crew, just thought I'd give a shout out to LBPcentral and promote "Return to Spare Change".
Was released about 5 hours ago.

Hey fijski. It's a little frowned upon to double post like that (check the sticky in this forum regarding the guidelines). Just an FYI for future, no one's gonna mind too much this time

So I played this earlier and it's not really my thing, but as I'm definately not your target audience, don't take that as a bad point. Overall the level is well constructed and enjoyable. There is a slight challenge in there and if you are aiming at younger players then they will likely have a couple of deaths but then get through so IMO the difficulty level well balanced. Secret areas are always a winner in my book so that's another point.

One subtle thing I picked up on was that you are promoting playing nice by not leaving others behind, but still promoting competitiveness with the points stashes. I don't think it's a contradiction to do this, it just highlights the difference between being competitive and being mean, so it works.

Also, on the sections where it says to wait for your friends, I'd have a require all AND'd with the grab switch to emit gas on anyone who didn't wait. Don't know if this exists already as I was playing on my own. I also very much doubt it's the kind of approach you would want to take

I think I rated it either 4 or 5 stars - it's not a level I would play much but it is well made and works well for what you were trying to achieve. I'll leave the moderation issue from this thread and go back to the other one for that.
