The Great Labyrinth

Archive: 134 posts

I've seen some discussions around here for epic projects on LBP PSP, most notably LBPCTG on PSP (Hears Taffey's acronym alarm going of in background), and I just wanted to throw my idea out there.

One day, a user with an unknown PSN posts a mysterious level. It is called The Great Labyrinth, with a description reading: 'A challenge to all who play this game. The Labyrinth will destroy you.' Many who are on the Community Moon at the time try this level, but something is not right here. The level is a nightmarish sprawl of collided worlds, where you might walk from a peaceful garden one moment to deep space the next, and horrifying monsters are everywhere. No one seems to have the ability to complete it. At once many playing it try to quit, but the menu is blocked. Stories fly around instantly and the truth is realized: someone has taken over LBP and even its designers are powerless to stop it, as this mysterious player has wrecked the servers.

Chaos reigns over LBP, and level production is halted. A team of the best gathers at LBPC to attempt a rescue, but after hopeful weeks, it is realized that even the best have fallen before this awful level. The members of the rescue team: Taffey, CyberSora, Poo, and other greats are all trapped with everyone else. LBP falls into further disarray, and hope is almost lost. Until...

You enter the Labyrinth!

Basically the idea for this is that as a huge, multi-creator project, we (by we I mean the good creators that want to help) would make stages where levels from around the Community Moon are all mashed together. You?d meet famous creators who would help you through each section, in their own unique way.

I won?t start this as a full-scale project yet, as if no one?s interested then this will get nowhere. What do you guys think?		2010-03-16 21:46:00

This is an interesting idea. Do you mean to have a series of levels or to try to get it all in to one level?

Nevertheless you have obviously given it some thought. It is a shame that we have seen quite a few grand ideas that don't seem to go anywhere, but you might just have the determination to push this through.		2010-03-17 00:54:00

Love the concept - let me know how I can help!

I certainly wouldn't mind building a section either following your guidance or as part of a larger picture that tells the complete story you are going for. You'd have to be sure to limit me on how much thermo I'm allowed to use up. I can go quite wacky at times. 		2010-03-17 19:12:00

These would definitely be full-scale levels, and multiple ones. I want it to be on a pretty epic scale. I think they'd be levels we'd all work on, published under one PSN.
Okay, I think we've got a yes here. Once I do some planning, and flesh out the story, I'll start a group.

Some ideas so far: I think the first level, which would serve as a backstory, could be outside The Great Labyrinth, perhaps an emergency meeting of the creator curators.

An elitist creator (real or fake) who functions as a sidekick for the hacker, maybe a mini-boss.

A mind control device, developed later in the story, that creates an evil opposite world of creator's effected by it. (Let's use Taffey as an example, he gets mind controlled and the Space Corps becomes the 'War Corps' or something like that, and everyone in the opposite world is evil, except the ones who were kind of evil, aka the Flight Surgeon is now good and could help you.)

More to come, but before I'll actually get into making the levels, I'd like to finish my current project. Thanks for the support!		2010-03-17 20:27:00

Sounds good b3 - the story concept is intriguing. Keep us posted.

It does seem similar, yes. The primary difference here I think is that there's an established storyline, whereas Fastbro's project is a free form type of thing. Oh, that reminds me - I need to look at adding something to that project as well. 		2010-03-17 22:05:00

Ya, and besides, who doesn't want tothis to be the first LBP PSP massive community project?

So with that, I say I'm in (although, seeing the first post, it already says I'm in). So, I'm in it twice!

EDIT: I know what the story can be about (side-story)! It can be about my epic fail at making my Into The Sewers level *sheds tear*. In other words, my "CyberVirus"! 		2010-03-23 23:55:00

Thanks Sora, I'm glad to see we'll have one more pro on board. I'l have to see how to fit that into the story... sounds like a good chance to add a little fun to what will otherwise be an epic, world-end type saga. Perhaps, (and I'm just spitballing here) you could show up in this crazy, broken sewer world for a level, and refuse to let the player pass untill they fix your level with you.

On the other side, there's a contest up involving this project! Click my sig for more details, ends April 12th!		2010-03-24 14:21:00

Why don't you make it so that each creator is actually featured in the levels. That way it could make more in-depth puzzles, or fight out an epic boss battle!2010-03-25 00:29:00

Well, I might have something like that going for a story mode.

I'm spitballing it here too, but I think we should make it a hackers revenge toward LBP for shunning him/her and his/her levels. The "NonCreator" (or "Heartless Curator", whatever you can come up with) strikes the Community with a deadly virus that ruins all levels.


Story
The virus (which is revealed as the "CyberVirus" around the middle of gameplay) is infecting LBP PSP, and the greatest team LBPCentral has to offer has arisen to the occasion. They venture foward the "Forgotten Levels", levels that have been corrupted by the virus and altered a bit to look like a "forgotten" place. The mission is to save these levels, while trying to find clues about the Creator by observing stickers and objects that the Creator ("Heartless Curator") left behind to those that dare defy him/her. It's all up them to try to save LBP PSP.


The Team (The LBP Saviors [or Gaurdians, or anything you like])
So, the group is gathered in LBPCentral, Cambridge's last hope to stop the virus. Apperantly they heard about us through our advertisements and our victory in LBPC: The Game. The group consist of these people:

Taffey - Sticker specialist; great at tracking the Sticker Switches and other sticker involved items.
amazingflyingpoo - Storyline specialist. Can figure out what level is involved in the current "Forgotten Level".
CyberSora - Survivor of the virus. Later on you find out that CyberSora (me) has connections to the virus more than anybody knew.
Others - Well, it's up to you.


Levels
The "Forgotten Levels" will be popular levels that we should probably have a contest on deciding which to use. The levels are re-made version wih different twist that require the player to help save by find and destroying the virus in that level. Poo can be the one to explain what level it was before it got affected. As the story goes on, Taffey will be the one to point out the mysterious Creator's marking and traps, like "Hey, looks like he/she left a Sticker Switch here. That's probably where the virus is!" and so on. CyberSora (me) will be going on with tips about the virus, seeing that I'm a survivor of it (Into The Sewers can be a "Forgotten Level"). As it goes on towards the end, the player will find out that I created the virus with my level (again, this will be discovered on the "Into The Sewers" remake) and the "Heartless Curator" stole it while it was still online. So in the last level, I either

a) Sacrifice myself and help destroy the virus.
b) The player destroys the virus.
c) Get enough hearts (metaphorically, like the hearts in the game give us power) by saying something like "Hold him/her off Sackboy. The team (The Saviors) will gather enough hearts to destroy that CyberVirus once and for all) and defeat he Curator and have either a sad or ahppy ending.
d) You can come with something.

What do you think?		2010-03-25 01:46:00

I think... Lleonard HAS to be involved in this! Lleonard's one of the best, if not the BEST Creator for LBP PSP (My opinion).

Here's another idea: How about making it so "the group" can be pulled or pushed and offer as a platform to jump on or can be used to help with puzzles! Like holding down a button switch while the player completes the puzzle.

If you use it you owe me!:kz: 		2010-03-25 01:56:00

Wow CyberSora, that sounds like the coolest idea for LBP I have ever heard! It has an awesome plot, awesome setting, etc.. and it also promotes LBPC and the creators there. I think that this is a great concept. The idea of having LBPC author's levels in this level (in a messed up, virus infected form) sounds sooo intriguing, I'm already excited for it :-)

Hmm, I like your ideas for a story, CS, but the level ideas don't sound too much like what I'm going for. My envisioning of the levels was that each would be focused on a creator's world, and the creator would help you through it. I don't really want 'team' levels until the very end.

I can say I'm going to take some things out of your ideas for sure:
You can be the creator of the virus.
The forgotten levels.
The hearts! Hearts will be involved deeply in the story,

But that's about as much that I can give a for sure yes to atm.

Because there is one thing that I REAAALY want in this story.
You have to be a villain at some point. For a good part of the story, I want to have your character be the Non/Un/EtcCreator's sidekick. This is in part because you have good villain-like sarcasm. You can become good later, and redeem yourself, if you want. But be aware, that's my plan.

Anyways, I'm going to work on getting more people to join the planning,
Saleri (or however it's spelled, I'm not gonna open a new tab for this) because hopefully he can make some gigantic bosses for us.
Jeffcu because we need some really great puzzles, and the first part of Zen was basicly one big puzzle.
and some others...		2010-03-25 16:49:00

Okay, so you want the Creators to have worlds? In that case, let's say my world is my "Forgotten Level" , Into The Sewers (seeing that my real life "CyberVirus" attacked it). I guide said team through the world, then BAM!, insta-villian! Either that, or we can make this like PS3, when the villian becomes good at the end. So instead of being a side-kick, I can be a full time villian! Look, I even have the evil smiley face to boast. --> >

So, we can have it like that (if you want), or we can figure something else out. Meanwhile, Taffey and jeffcu can make some re-makes of their own levels that will soon be "fogotten". I in the other hand will make my Sewers re-make and the intro level (your contest), along with the other contestants.

Oh, and I think you can see my evilness at work here.

We (Mafia) pretty much won the game, with me and Jazve being the last alive. Of course, I did go superbad once and killed a fellow Mafioso for my plan to work. Ya, I'm that clever. :kz:

Since it seems that Bill wants team levels to come later. How about this:

-Team gets sent into first mission, could be slideshow or not an actual level, your decision.
-CyberSora betrays them.
-Team gets seperated.
-Sackboy has to regroup the team.
-Team travels to the first level, obviously you can venture farther into level.
-Epic ending! 		2010-03-26 00:59:00

Bill said he wants each creator to have their own little world. I didn't account for that because I don't know how many creators are there. And I just meant for that to be a guideline, not actual levels.

Hey, that's not nice. I say anybody who wants in can join!

Seriously, if we want this to be a massive community project, we need the community to be involved, not just a select group of people. Maybe we can work out a system like this:

Good Creators - Makes the levels.

Semi-Good Creators - Make levels or make ideas for levels, then ask the good Creators to make them or tweak them a bit.

Others - Makes objects, advertise, and other helpful stuff like add DLC to a level if a Creator doesn't have it but they do.

How's that?		2010-03-27 20:57:00

I know, exactly what I think we should do. But I'm saying that we don't know which Creators are good, and which are better off spreading the word. This is why we should at least have an audition or something, to determine who's best at what position (Main or Side Creator) or what role they got (making gadgets, levels, being a character, etc.). That contest is only to see who has better transitions. Of course, we may need someone who specializes in that.		2010-03-28 19:17:00

Well, I don't think we should rush such a massive project (if we're looking at a potential 10+ level game). I believe it's going to take some time to play and test for a fool-proof gaming experience, no? 		2010-03-29 23:55:00

So, when I audition, can I bring props?Yes, as in propellers. Nothing else, and certainly no turbofans.


And can I pick what song I sing?Yes, as long as it was written by Milli Vanilli or sampled by Biz Markie.		2010-03-31 20:05:00

Ha, thanks! I'll have to take a look at your levels and see how good they are, you won a WDSD spot though, so you'll probably make it.

Hey everyone, time for a new update! Well, I've begun work on a storyline and a level web, like LBPCTG, this will be a lot of story levels with a few minigames (I've been thinking of a Taffey based stickering game, for one) I can say that the storyline will be centered around the quest to find Heart Cores/Cells/I'll come up with somethings that need to be found to get to the last level, which will be set in the ruins of the greatest level of all time which rhymes with... uh, what rhymes with Euphoric Physics? Oops! I've said too much.

Well, I'm no team leader, but I have a feeling B3 is momentarely busy (Grammar Nazis,feel free to correct anything I just said).

So, I like to contribute a few ideas, like these:


Someone make a banner for this project already!
May have a audition? You never know what people will bring to the table unless you ask them.
Someone help me add some more gameplay to the introduction level ("it's in my PSN). Seeing that B3 decided to use it as the intro, we might as well start working on it.


Feel free to agree and/or disagree.

Jeff is great at making banners!
An audition would be great as well, some people have that creative flow in them, that we may not even know about.
Gameplay to your intro level? Hmm maybe Velcro can help? He's always great at puzzles and obstacles.

I'm just here to contribute ideas, I have not much creative flow in me to partake in the actual construction of this project.

Anything like this seem familiar? Well, let me say that by Monday, I should be able to let you know who would be accepted into this, and I'm gonna contact jeff in a minute to have him make a banner and some other stuffs. I'll soon have a discussion group up as well. So hold on! Today, I need to write to CS about final touches to the intro, Taffey about future contests, and jeff for GFx.

Oh the drama! I know we're just beginning on this project, but I wanted to give some update on the OFFICIAL intro I'm refining. "What! " you say!? Official is it!? Well yes, I won the contest, and with that B3 kick started the project, so now I give you said update!

Okay, so B3 asked me to make some minor touches to the intro1. So, I'm now doing some few changes to it.


No gameplay!
Smaller stars.
Taffey's moon in molten lava. :eek:
Others are being modified, but that's a suprise, so wait.


Yeah, B3 thought some things were better off this way and that2, so he told me change some things in the intro3 before giving it to him to publish. Hmmph... everybody's a critic.

So, keep your eyes peeled!

Peace

1I'm not all too happy about it, but hey, the guy has the storyline/plan. So orders are orders. Oh, and I'm now going to be doing footnotes once in a while, just for the fun of it.
2Criticism; the envy of my days. I'm practically getting this a lot from B3, now that I've started with the project (although, I can take it... bring it on!). I wouldn't be suprised to see him as a movie critic one day.
3Although, not very nicely, more like demanding. I can see that he's still fairly new though, so I'm not going to bother him on this. But at least he can say "please" and "thank you" once in a while. Are you reading B3!?		2010-05-07 02:06:00

Did someone want some GFx? Well, sorry B3, but I don't know any ex-Girl Friends who are looking for a Blue Bullet Bill right now. Don't worry though, I'm sure you'll find a Pink Punching Penelope in the future!

On the other hand, I do have some graphics for you. I followed your instructions to the T (and h,e,G,r,e,a,t,L,a,b,y,r,i,n,t, and h) to the best of my ability. I tried experimenting with different backgrounds with pictures of labyrinths and stuff, but I wasn't satisfied. I decided to keep it simple instead. I'm really happy with how it turned out, and I hope you will too:

Sorry I can't help more with the project. I've been really busy finishing my coursework for graduation, so I hope you accept this as a sign of my support. But it's comforting to know that people like CS are working closely with you on this; you're in good hands. Best of luck to you my friend, and I look forward to seeing the final product.

Update time!

For starters, I've been working on said introduction again and in the same time listening to these (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8PAuvxCZuM) guys. They're amazing, both the level and the guys. Trust me, these people/level is a must see.

Anyways, the level is published under my name, CyberSora. Here's the pros and cons:

Pros

New ending (same message though).
No more dissolving lava pit.
Taffey's moon is engulfed in fire/lava1. :hrmf:


Cons

The stars were unable to become small... mainly because everything deletes after I try to alter it.
More thermo was used.
NO GAMEPLAY!


Well, I'll see you guys later1.

Peace

1Haha! That was as much fun to say as to do!
2Or maybe not. B3 wants this to be a low profile thing. So... ya... "This footnote will self destruct in 3 seconds!", and all that stuff.		2010-05-09 01:01:00

I would like to see that, but I would also feel special if I worked on some objects or gadgets for at least one of the levels. At the end of the level, it could say:

Sorry for the double post, but yes, people asking for salami, I'm bringing one to the development. We'll all need snack breaks!

Oh... saleri? Well, of course! Not only could we use his expertise at characters, but I'm guessing he'd be the best for making an EPIC boss. I'm PMing him right away... but I can say after that, there's only one more creator left to join the team - and his PSN includes a delicious snack, a pastry of sorts. Sorry, silver, cory and assorted others, but I'm pretty sure the PSP can't handle anymore awesomeness in one level series.
