Absurd things you've done in create mode

Archive: 55 posts


I was just in create mode and I was trying to make a little easy puzzle for the intro of my new level. It involved only two buttons that activated platforms that would bring object X from point A to point B. It's really simple but I lost an hour of work on it. But I was really pleased when it was finished. After play testing I got a great idea: "That was really fun and nice to watch. I should make it bigger, better and longer."
So I went back to create mode, deleted the little puzzle that took me an hour to make and just put a block of dark matter so I could continue from it tomorrow.

After that, it struck me that I worked an hour (3rd time's a charm ) on something that I just deleted... Puff, and it's gone. I thought:"The work and idea were worth it but deleting the puzzle was absurd..."

So I thought maybe I'm not the only one who did something like this. Well I just wanted to ask you guys if you ever do some absurd stuff like me?

Everytime I see a masculine object (i.e. tank, robot, helicopter) I cover it in a hot pink sticker.

Oh, and I have a saved object that's so complicated that it can't be inserted into any level.

Deleting an hour's worth of work you say? Pfft... I've probably thrown away close to 100 hours worth of levels that I either had no intention of finishing or scrapped them to start fresh because I wasn't happy. If that's not absurd I don't know what is.2010-02-08 21:00:00

I think that fits perfectly

Pfft you think that's crazy I've had LBP since it came out (pre ordered it <-haha see what I did there, I made a smiley functional by accisent. Well I thought it was interesting. Anyway back on topic, I only have about 5 hours worth of saved work. I've deleted absolutely everything else I've ever made because while I was halfway through it I would think of how to make it better but to do so I had to start it all over again. I still just keep thinking of how to make things better and can never actually get to finishing them but I've restricted myself in my latest project and a literally cannot make it any better, or I sure hope not.

I'm much like that, except I haven't deleted anything. For every project I come up with, I have a work level where I experiment with the tech. Then once I get it to my satisfaction (or sooner), I become bored with it and move on to a new project.2010-02-09 14:15:00

I've deleted two whole levels. One I actually regret because I really liked playing it. They were too hard for most people, and I needed to make room in my profile. So poof. Gone. No big deal though. The way I see it I learned a lot from building those levels, so it wasn't a total loss.2010-02-09 22:03:00

I finished Zephyr Valley 2... then deleted it and restarted from scratch. That was pretty crazy, but I think the level will be better because of it. Other than that, I've spent countless hours goofing off with Compher and Javi. One night, we spent at least an hour playing "dress up" with my villager from Zephyr Valley. It was pretty absurd, but extremely funny.2010-02-09 23:38:00

No, I can't. As soon as I pull up the object the "shape is too complicated" sign pulls up, literally "outlaw"ing the item from being produced. It really stinks.

I don't think you could handle our create sessions...

...on topic, we always end up with all of our captured objects just pasted around or being emitted all over the place. I think this is why Zephyr Valley 2 isn't done yet...

"Accidentally" Dropping a meteor (several electrified bombs overlapped and made stable, not mine, got it from some doomsday survival) onto someone/their creation in OC mode, which usually covers it in a hundred bomb ash stickers and/or completely obliterates anything near it in the process C:<2010-02-17 16:46:00

Oh yeah, yesterday, while i was in OC with someone else on their level and they went on BRB, I made a darkmatter block with a fart sound attached. i then made it as small as possible (invisible) and hid it behind a thin rock. so every time you pass this rock.... 'Paarrrrppp!!!!'. I then did the same with a burp sound and put it behind a cactus, and then hid a snoring sound near the entrance and hid a motion switch behind the checkpoint, so that when you start there is this faint snoooooring sound

I also used the 50 layer glitch to write 'LOLZ' out of wood, and then panicked because it was so far back i couldnt select it and I wasnt leader so I couldnt undo :O then I left

Just go into front view mode, and draw a box selection around it.

The craziest thing ive made was pretty wacky!! Its in my Paper Mario 64 Dry Dry Ruins level, theres this boss fight against a Rock Giant Chomp, and you have to grab a Hammer while on jetpack..and SMASH EM!! down in to pieces, but I mean Literally pieces, you have to break em down, piece by piece with the Hammer, until he falls down and your able to pass and continue, I think thats the Craziest thing ive done, Stupidest would be I made a Forest of Eyeballs ROFL, but i deleted it, thats how stupid it was lolz.2010-02-18 23:56:00

i was bored one day, so i created a fake level saying why kids under 10 shouldn't play LittleBIGPlanet. it was actually worth my time, you should see the comments, theyre hilarious. but i locked the level because i didnt want all those hilarious comments moderated. there were excuses like "my brothers only 7 and he beat story mode, take that!" and i said, sure any one can beat story mode, but can he ace it and get all prizes as well? good luck sorting that out2010-02-19 04:40:00

I have a giant cheese wheel that explodes when you grab it.

I was working on a tram in a level and just suddenly started making the thing. It took me an hour to make the complete cheese with self containing mechanism to explode and a mag key so that you can disarm the cheese if you get it in the right area. That said, I never touched the level again -if I even have it- but i still have the "Fromage Of Doooooom!"

I was probably creating for an hour today, finished up a section, and tweaked about a hundred pistons in a row (SO BORING), decided I was finished for the day, hit return to pod, and then remembered something I wanted to do. So I hit discard changes instead of cancel like a total idiot. I cursed more than a few times. :eek:2010-02-23 02:14:00

Hmmm... Wasting hours of work on a level just to trash it and completely re making it, and decapitating pandas. Thats about it.2010-02-23 02:25:00

Copying things many times, and then realising that I need to tweak something, so I copy it again, and then need to tweak something else. I do that a LOT.

I once deleted a 80-90% complete level one night because I'd had a few to many. I thought it was rubbish. Turned out it wasn't, I'd wasted 2 weeks, and I've regretted it ever since

Or staring at the screen, mind blank. All I need is a break, an hour away or something , but I can't drag myself away from create mode. Its silly staring at the screen, wishing that for the moment of inspiration when I could be doing something much more productive.

I spent ages making a complicated machine that was a reversible counter, once I had finished my work :

Now that I look at it, I realize that there were much more quicker, simple ways of making this -_-

Thats half the fun, I know my logic could be streamlined and made 100x more efficient. But it was my work around to the problem, and I'm generally proud of my solution.

Building enemies with moving parts and watching them attack each other is always fun They really go at it... breaking each other arms and legs right off, even killing themselves ought right by destroying the creature brain. o.o I dunno why they're so passionate about fighting...2010-02-26 18:06:00

i go into the garden template, find the ramp, stick a rocket hooked up to a grab switch onto an object, grab on and ride it down the ramp or into the sky.

surprisingly fun.

I like to take go into create mode, make a large thin square of wood, make a sponge circle, attach a motorbolt, turn the speed up really high. I then make a little basket of dark matter at the opposite corner of the level (way up high). Then I try to see if I can send myself flying all the way and land in the basket.

Also, when my roommate is trying to make something, I like to stick emitters on it that shoot out golf balls or beach balls. His reactions are always priceless.

Or I made a level that required you to pass over an electrified floor using spinning sponges, but the sponges went very fast and were far apart. That was a challenge.

I deleted my Darkmist Woods level (at 40% of progress), and restarted it from scratch because i wasn't satisfied with the result at all...
And the new version i made was like 10x TIMES BETTER! LOL
Funny thing, the same thing happened to another level i'm working, except only for the visuals, the lvl is pretty the same.
I should do it more often.

I made a toilet-mobile once. You hop in the bowl and grab and it start to drive extremely quickly, with a pipe leaking water and unsightly brown lumps every so often.
Another one would be this rather interesting level involving being catapulted into someone's mouth then working your way through their body to escape, in another toilet related manner. The toilet humour just keeps on coming.
OH! And before I got online I made this airship that I called the ROFL blimp, which me and my mates thought was the greatest thing ever. It was badly made out of sponge, symmetrical and had three balloons to make it float along with rocket thrusters to make it land or steer it with. It had two faces on the boarding cranes (winches with sponges) and they either said "I just want to be loved" with pathetic sobbing or "we're going to die" with the old man cackle. It was great fun, deleted now though after a save file corruption.
