Mars Attacks 4: Billboard Challenge

Archive: 22 posts


I've got to a point in Mars Attacks 4 where I thought some Billboards might add to the scenery in the section I'm working on. Instead of creating them myself I thought I'd give everyone a chance to create there own Billboard advertising their level, I'll then add the three best.

It has to be a sticker/photo, to save thermo

The board is set on the medium grid at 8 squares high, and 16 wide. The boards must include your PSN ID and the name of the level. Anything else is completely up to you.

Post the pics here, and I'll include the three best in the level, with a magic mouth giving the details. First place will win 200xp, second 100, third 50.

Billboards to be added.

Awww dang. I actually have a logo for my next level... but the logo and some logic systems is all I have. Not much point in advertising a non-existant level

Maybe I'll enter for MA5...

Nah, it doesn't seem right. Let some newer levels try for the ad spots.2009-10-16 18:18:00

Oh, well now you'd make me feel guilty for making one. Although... Grant when should we expect the level? I have something that might be able to be added, but it all depends on when the level is going up.

Cool idea! ...ummm so when is the deadline and does the level being advertised need to also be complete at that time?

I'll try something
but, about the PSN ID and level name:

do we use a magic mouth for our PSN? or do we use stickers?
and the level name, it's Mars Attacks 4 with nothing else?

I'm pretty sure he's talking about a sign advertising one of your levels. And there wouldn't be a magic mouth for various reasons. But i could be wrong

oldage... Ummm, I think you may have misunderstood:

Unless you are starting your own mars attacks series, which starts at episode 4. In which case I appologise

Oh very cool idea. I love this kind of cross-level stuff that makes it feel like all LBP levels are part of the same universe. I tried to do a sort-of similar thing in The Movies, where the movie posters are shots from other levels.

I'm working on a new level right now, and there are a few opportunities for some really cool screenshots - so I think I'll submit something a bit later today!

The level is my halloween contest entry, so you can be guaranteed to see it before Halloween. Hooray for deadlines!

EDIT: Hell, you know what? there's an area of my level where I was also going to put up rooftop billboards. So far I've had no idea what to put up there, but I LOVE your idea.
Mind if I rip it off wholesale? I'll definitely do an exchange and put up an ad for your newest.

Maybe sometime after you've picked your 3, I can steal your thread and do the same.

Man, I'm in a stealey mood today.

Man, I'm in the same boat. Can't finish a level to save my life, but hey maybe I'll make one for my Sewer Survival; although it's outdated but I've been updating it lately.
