Oh, For Cake's Sake!

Oh, For Cake's Sake!amblaze
A short but sweet level. Get to enjoy the colorful and delicious sights of Cakey Cliffs as you traverse its gaps and ascend its slopes. Challenge is non-existent in this cake-walk, but I hope its still fun.

After a couple of scrapped levels, I was left beaten and in need of a break. Fat Princess was one the games I played almost non-stop during this time, and it's design of the cake was what inspired me to make this level.

I wanted to get back to creating even though I failed at making levels that were probably too ambitous for me. So this is why i made another food-themed level--its within my comfort zone. Also my other food levels didn't really capture my original vision for this kind of level.

My original vision was to create a fantasy world that didnt focus so much on challenge but on the sights and fun to be had. I guess what i wanted to create was a playground that was fun but not necessarily challenging, all the while being immersed in the fantasy of a world made up entirely by food. I think this level is more true to my original vision than my other ones.

I hope you guys enjoy this and thanks for letting me share.

Played it yesterday and it was what they call eye-candy! err eye-cake I love food levels in general but these cakes looked so delicious that i almost went to the shop to buy one Too bad its short but heh, what do you want if you've got a level looking like this. The custom prize bubbles always make my day, i have to get them!

Overal a great level with great visuals, not very interesting gameplay but that didn't matter because i was busy enough watching at those delicious cakes! yam yam

I saw this in Cool Levels this morning.

I love it! It's not particularly challenging but it's extremely well designed and gives exactly the kind of atmosphere you seem to have set out to create. Clever and cute.

A really cute and well made level. You certainly know your way around pastry design in LBP Not hard at all to make your way through which should should appeal to players with limited experience or skills but still a very pretty level for all to play. It did make me hungry which is funny. Alas I have no cake in the house so I shall have to settle for M&Ms 5 stars. Thanks for sharing it.2009-09-17 04:29:00

Played this yesterday I believe, and it was pretty awesome.

Gave it a :star::star::star::star::star: and hearted it.

Very good aesthetic wise.

Gameplay wise? Not much to do but I don't see it as really a bad thing, it's really just a eye-candy level.

Well done.

One positive thing...
The Cake was NOT a lie.
Neither is the gameplay or visuals.

Once again, a great job creating a kid-friendly level. My son and I once again had a really fun time.

Maybe a goal for the next one could be creating a lot more movement - such as things going up and down and spinning. Seems to add a lot more fun to an already fun experience.

5 stars and a heart!

Thanks to everyone for the comments.

To be honest...I just wanted to make a level that wouldn't leave me pulling my hair out. . I might have been able innovate or come up with more creative obstacles, but that requires more trial and error, testing, time and a loss of hair. So yes it was a simple design, and rehash of my other food level ideas. But for a level I drew up in the waiting room of a doctors office I think it turned out well. Besides all of that, I think I'm just waiting for online create, so I can collabo with mechanically skilled peeps.

Interesting note: Last time i checked, the level reached 3,000 plays without recieving a "difficult" or "frustrating" tag. Success!
