Archive: 25 posts


Cardboardia ~ finishedblizzard_cool
After a normal day in LBP, sackboys is teleported to a world of.... cardboard!?!?! What adventures await?
all
Genre: platformer
Story: none
Lenght: short:blush:

I've been working on this level for the past week non-stop but in the end it didn't turned out to be what I wanted.
After that I didn't know what to do... I didn't had the motivation to create on, it was too good to delete it so I just published it to get people interested in my creation skills

There is a little secret in the level! Tip: It's behind a rock.

Well I'm willing to do 3-4 F4F even thou you don't have much to report . Well I hope you enjoy it.

No, I used dissolve material.

It is really good in my opinion, just really short at the moment or rather it was yesterday or whenever I played it.

More please.

That's ok. Dissolve is one of the materials you're allowed to use along with dark matter and basic cardboard.

Do you know what. I'd really like to see this level finished. Obviously if you're not happy with it then no-one is gonna force you. TBH I was skeptical - world made out of cardboard has to be pretty bland and all that but I think you've actually pulled it off really well. All the visuals are built into the shapes and the geometry of the level, and it just looks really nice. The ruins and the waterfalls etc just seem to work and the fact that you embraced the clunkiness of the limitation helps here (i.e the waterfalls)

Gameplay was OK. Bit of platforming and switch-pulling shenanigans, I did like those sinking platforms though. Maybe a big cardboard boss?

I'd say a cardboard level, with this art style, extended out to proper length, maybe some cardboard baddies and some inventive puzzles could turn out to be a fantastic level. I've given 4 stars as it's incomplete, but if you ever pick this project up again, let me know - I'd be very interested to see how it turns out.

Played,really cool (gived :star::star::star::star: )

My first impression was "i want see this with texture/stickers"
But the second impression was "no,is yet cool as it is"

In that way is unique,with colour will become the ruin level number 763

Ok, here's my impression: FINISH IT. If you need to, do what Jaeyden does and let it sit for a while until you get inspired to continue - but this is a really fun and stylistic level that should be finished.

How about a couple more zones with different types of cardboard? How about a big boss made of different types of cardboard? Why not a few different gameplay styles mixed into other sections?

It's got a great look and it's fun..... don't give up on it!

Good call - I played it last night and couldn't agree more. It's got a neat look to it and I love the smooth versus sandpaper cardboard textures mixed up. It's got some potential to be very unique.

Let us know when it's been re-released.

The people have spoken! You will do our bidding!

I don't think anyone will mind if it takes a while, we're just letting you know it is a great concept and it would be a shame to ditch it completely.

Well I wanted to drop this but I came to this thread the other day and thought: Meh, I'll finish it... :/

So yeah it's finished now... You can try and race the level cause it's really short, and there's one secret behind a rock at the beginning of the level.

have fun!

Ah, finally found you. Great level! Even got the high score on my first try lol! The details made the simple cardboard scene all worth while. The aligned cardboard bricks were my favorite. Greta work!2009-11-08 01:08:00
