The King's Playgroundrobbit10 This is a platforming level with a time limit. Collect all the scorebubbles and prizes as fast as you can, while racing towards the end of the level. Have fun all Screenshots are coming, as soon as I have something to transfer pictures to my Playstation 3. I don't have my USB stick right now. I'd like some useful feedback. I want to know what things you liked in my level, what you didn't, and ideas you have for improving the things that are already in my level. And i'd like some tips from the experienced creators here on LBPcentral. Something i'd like to implement in this level is, when the time limit is over, the sack person is killed and asked to retry the level or return to pod. I'd probably have to do this by crushing all checkpoints and the entrance and then killing Sackboy, right? --- Find the level by searching for @robinlint on LBP, or search for "The King's Playground". If you like the level, please rate it 4 or 5 stars on LBP's rating screen. Hearts are fine too, but I would like it more if you rated it 4 or 5 stars. PSS: Even though it seems there are many MM objects in the level - there aren't, save for some decorations. The only MM objects that I used in this level, are the The Gardens picture in the beginning, the indian bowls, and the buffalo's. The rest of the objects, including the teeter-totters and the birds, are made by me.

I thought it was a pretty good race level. Everything looked great and for the most part played perfectly. I loved when the King came and smashed me and introduced the little challenge to get past him. Things that I would change would be the infinity checkpoint just after the king sequence. Add a layer behind it because two out of three times when the player re-spawns and jumps to the right to get onto the spinning wheels, you end up jumping behind the wheels to your death. Get rid of the photo booth. Cost me a life because I never have any patience for them. Especially for a race...not good to pause the action like that. The only thing I did not care for that probably would not change is the rocket sequence. I am sure that it was tedious to make, but it adds nothing to the gameplay. Holding on and going for a ride, especially in a race level, is not the most fun. Add more obstacles or a puzzle sequence rather than the ride sequence. Overall the level looked very clean and polished. At this point it would be a three star level. Fix the checkpoint and maybe add something rather than a ride sequence and this could definitely be a four star level. Keep it up!

I thought it was a pretty good race level. Everything looked great and for the most part played perfectly. I loved when the King came and smashed me and introduced the little challenge to get past him. I actually added that in today, glad you liked it Things that I would change would be the infinity checkpoint just after the king sequence. Add a layer behind it because two out of three times when the player re-spawns and jumps to the right to get onto the spinning wheels, you end up jumping behind the wheels to your death. Ah, nice find. I'll get right on that Get rid of the photo booth. Cost me a life because I never have any patience for them. Especially for a race...not good to pause the action like that. I agree with you. But I put it there so that the level got a picture thumbnail... I don't know how to put a thumbnail on the level, so I thought the photo booth might add a few photo's. The only thing I did not care for that probably would not change is the rocket sequence. I am sure that it was tedious to make, but it adds nothing to the gameplay. Holding on and going for a ride, especially in a race level, is not the most fun. Add more obstacles or a puzzle sequence rather than the ride sequence. I'm going to leave it in, however, I might add a few things to make it a bit more challenging, and make it a bit more exciting. I put the ride in for fun, AND so that there was a point in the level where you had to wait for a set time, while the clock was still ticking, so that it takes some seconds away from your leftover time. Overall the level looked very clean and polished. At this point it would be a three star level. Fix the checkpoint and maybe add something rather than a ride sequence and this could definitely be a four star level. Thanks . As I said, i'll enhance the ride, but not replace it - The puzzle idea you had was nice, though, and perhaps I could make a point where the ride stops temporarily, you have to solve a puzzle, and then it continues. I'll start fixing those bugs right away, but enhancing the ride may take a little longer Oh, and - in your opinion, are the prizes in the level worth picking up? because if they're not, not many players are going to make effort to collect them. And, do you know how to fix the camera at the scoreboard? I mean, prevent it from zooming in when the scores are listed?

I added a small block behind the first spinning wheel, which prevents Sackboy from going behind the wheel. And I removed the photobooth, because you were right about it slowing people down.
