This contest is
CLOSED

Do you love finding secret passages and hidden easter eggs?
Leaving no stone unturned, no door unopened, no switch unflipped?

Then this contest is for you!


I have just released my new levels - a sequel to my 00Sack - Betrayed level:

00Sack - Revenge - Part I (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=t=16509)
00Sack - Revenge - Part II (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=t=16510)

Be the first to find ALL the secrets!
The first 10 LBPC members to meet this challenge will win XP and bragging rights!

:star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:


P R I Z E S
1st: 750 XP
2-5: 500 XP
6-10: 250 XP


D E A D L I N E
All entries must be PM'ed to me no later than:
Midnight
(12:00 AM CDT)
Monday, Sep. 28
(Sunday night)


Rules:

Be the first (or in the first ten) to send me a PM here at LBPC with pictures of both SECRETS tally boards fully lit (as shown below).

You (your sackboy/girl) must be in the picture.

Do not post your pictures in this thread - you must PM them to me, either embedded or as attachments.
You can still post them in the thread for bragging rights, but just understand that posting them here will not be counted as a valid entry.
If you can't get photos uploaded to the web for some reason, I will accept them as attachments in a PSN message. Just note your LBPC user name.


The contest will run until I have 10 valid entries or until I deem otherwise (see updated close date, above).

The pictures must show the entire tally board, as such:

Oooooooooooh I like secrets! Count me in with this

EDIT: After playing part one to the end, i was able to count how many secrets i'd gotten (not all 8 ) but couldnt help but notice i had no idea i'd gotten that many secrets. Is there a noise or something to indicate that where i am is a "secret"? I'd appreciate it, as i know it'll take a few playthroughs to find the rest and i'll need to figure out wehre the ones i know are are

Yeah - someone else made a similar observation during play testing (can't recall who now - feeble is my old mind). I will work on adding that and let you know! Thanks!


EDIT: Chime sound added for all secrets on both levels.

LOL - Yeah _ I've tweaked that light several times. It is set EXACTLY as the others, but shows up just a bit dim. When I change it to be brighter then it ends up out-shining the others!

And yes - Congratulations to kipmonlin !!

There's plenty of prizes left folks! Keep trying - kipmonlin has shown you that it's very doable.

I'll have to wait until the contest is over to get my points, but I went on a spending spree already and got stickers from two of my favorite games.

I easily got the #1 spot on the scoreboard for both levels so I knew right away I was the first to find all secrets . Keep searching people! 500 XP is a good prize.

Question: how long did it take you to find them all? I really don't have a ton of time to devote to the hunt, which is disappointing, but I may still give it a go.

Once they get up to a few hundred plays (Basically, once they get cemented onto cool pages), I'll offer some hints if all the prizes haven't been awarded. I am tempted to give them now, but I don't think it would be fair.

The "key level" ? I have had some trouble with Part II failing (I guess because the thermo is so full, which seems dumb to me). Did you try more than once? I've found that it loads usually on the second try, but sometimes takes a few (which really sucks, because you know some folks are not going to be patient enough to do this). 2009-09-17 02:17:00

Oh, I thought you were getting the "Failed to load" error. If you're unable to find the new levels (seriously annoying bug in Mm's search engine), just go to the pop-up menu for one of my older levels and select "Find more by this author". You should see the new ones.

If you do get the "Failed to load", just keep trying. It's got over 100 plays, so people are getting in.

Well, I had a real blast finding the secrets in these 2 levels. I love levels with secrets anyway but it definitely adds to the excitement doing it as part of a contest. So a BIG thank you to V0rtex for some of the best fun I've had on LBP in a while!

Thanks for the (prospective) XP. As I only have 436 XP to date this will make a big difference, lol!

Also, that?s one cool leader board! You really have put a lot of effort into this contest and it shows. Many thanks.

I?ll post feedback on the levels on the threads for them.

Darnit, I found all but two on each of the levels. Just a few questions.

-I can see the first secret in the first level, but I can't get it. It's denoted by the little "indicator" (trying not to spoil anything), and I can see where it is, but I just can't get back there. I can clearly see is by jumping on the roof of the "you know what", but I can't plane shift back there. Am I missing something?

-In the second one, what's the point of the break room after the little forklift puzzle? I go up there are nothing happened...

Alright, I have found all but one of them!

I give up for the night. I just can't figure out the secret in the break room, and it's driving me crazy. I tried almost everything.

I uploaded a pic of me finding all of them in the first part, but if you want me to upload it here that's fine. I will find that other one hopefully tomorrow.

Indeed it does...

@ King_Tubb: would you mind editing your post and keep the hint giving to PMs please? Thanks!

@ comphermc: I'd love to give you hints, but as there's a contest involved, I don't think it would be prudent or fair. Try PM-ing one of the winners, maybe they'd be more forthcoming.
EDIT: And, yes... in order to be eligible for the contest, you have to PM me both pictures here at LBPC (not necessarily at the same time, but you won't get credit till I see the 2nd pic).

And congratulations to Burnvictim42 for taking 4th Place!!
There's one 500 XP prize left for the grabbing, then 5 more at 250 XP.

@ Burnvictim42: I've added you to the OP. Your points will be awarded by CC once the contest is over.

I found all of the secrets on first attempt with 00sack Betrayed, but I've played through 00sack Revenge several times now and I still can't find the secret that illuminates the first light on the tally board.

I've given up now.

Nice to see I'm finally have some company in the Winner's Circle .

It took me over an hour and at least six replays of each level to get all secrets. It's great with little hints of the secrets. You know there is one in a location and feel stupid for not finding it, then rewarded when you do find it.

v0rtex did a great job on the secrets. I thought for sure people would find them when I had to go to sleep and coundn't try again until the morning. Still only five have completed the contest and there's five more prizes.

I had a hard time with the forklift puzzle and break room. I almost figured it out the first time I played but wasn't paying enough attention and missed a little thing.

comphermc - That's great, and I'm glad you figured it out, but you have to send those pics to me in a PM.

I really hate to be such a stickler, but the rules state it very clearly, and I've already reiterated the rule to you once. :eek:

OK - As interest appears to be waning and my cool pages run is over (~2,000 plays for Part I and 1,000 plays for Part II - not quite what I'd hoped for, but not a bad run), I am closing this contest.

If you want a chance for these last 5 prizes, you need to have your entries PM'ed to me by:


Midnight (12:00 AM) on Monday, Sep. 28 (Sunday night).

I am also updating the OP with this info.

Good luck!
