I havent had a good level idea in a long time. And I really want to make somthing good for my next level. because usally all my levels either dont turn out good orI just dont finish them. So I need help with making somthing great. Ive been wanting to do some horror levels because I think there awesome and there should be more out there. But I tried it in the past and I had absolutely no idea where I was going with it so I just stoped working on it. I did have one idea for a level that was not somthing that Ive never seen.(sorry for random gap. I had to edit somthing) in LBP before but I couldnt make it look decent because the style was somthing I dont think anyone has done before. I also wanted to do somthing like Morbid Dispair but then It would seem like im copying. So if anyone could help me think of somthing you could work on it with me or I could say That it was your idea. And I really dont know what else to say now. I wish i had that lol

was the reason you couldn't finish the one idea because of a stylistic thing, or a technical problem? horror is fun to play with, one thing that freaks people out is isolation. make a dark and spooky 4 player level with very few checkpoints. as people get whittled down, whether by design or by accident, the remaining will feel more pressure. stuff popping out at these points would scare the holy bejeebus out of them. check out the descent levels, they're pretty scary for lbp. of course scary in any media has a lot to do with pacing, and that can be difficult to do properly. that's definitely something you have to think ahead on pretty long and hard. or better yet, so that people don't feel cheated, give the player(s) a lot of "companions" that all slowly get picked off by whatever you think will be the most disturbing killer. companions that help out the player slowly dropping out of the game will help set a good tone. heck make the end piece inside the stomach of the monster. nothing like helplessness to create panic.

Horror levels are really hard to make, so I think you should try something simple first. Just think of some good platforming elements and a theme. Just make a plain platformer, and then decorate it with stickers, decorations and small objects like bushes, trees, small creatures etc.

No, they dont XD that sounds kinda harsh and right to the point. At least to me. Well I can give you one tip on how to make a lvl creepy. Have objects that move quickly across the edges of the screen. Makes it seem like your being fallowed and watched. And play with shadows..,...................I feel like I'm being watched right now O.o

well, I'd say ask someone to help with the style thing for your one idea, it seems like something you were definitely interested in doing. Doing something new isn't easy, but if you get some help it would be easier. Find someone you trust not to 'steal' your idea and let them know what you're trying to accomplish. They may know a way to get it done, or at least know someone who does. I understand you want to be the one who creates your idea, but if you don't make it nothing will ever come of your idea. Better to collab and have something, than to just let a good idea waste away.
