Multiple Ways To Kill An Enemy

Archive: 88 posts

One thing that bothers me about the enemy system is that you can only defeat an enemy by jumping on its brain, right? I wish you could tweak the brain so that you could give it a health bar, and to defeat it you damaged the enemy by either slapping them or using some sort of device to shoot them. I feel that this would make things more challenging, or more interesting than the simple, standard, jump-on-their-head to kill them.

Has anyone invented anything so that you could beat an enemy in a different way than just jumping on their brain?		2008-10-18 08:47:00

Here's an idea! You have to put a key in a small place that's challenging and then lets out the monster? ANd then you have to use a key to kill the monster..2008-10-18 08:54:00

If you knew a monster was in there, why would you let it out? I'm sure you meant for that to make sense. lol

You could put a layer of polyester around your monster and make a cannon to fire a few shots at it until you penetrated it.2008-10-18 09:14:00

I'm not sure, maybe its fur or something. You could always make it look good with some stickers. And maybe, to make the layer thinner, you could use a tougher material.		2008-10-18 09:28:00

Do I see anything in your OP saying animal? Nope. I thought it was a worthwhile suggestion!

If you're thinking animal, coat the polysterene with fur or somesuch, then you have to get through the fur layer to get at it's organs. Or, make the polysterene look like scales for a lizard, or a shell for a turtle.		2008-10-18 09:47:00

my idea would be to put more then one brain in their, my other idea is that you have to destory key parts of the monster and the brain is protected till u destroy all key parts2008-10-18 11:37:00

in a level in the beta i think created by aeroblue it had some boss like enemy that had two brains attached to it so you had to hit each area before it died. you could but as many brains on the enemy giving it sort of a life bar.2008-10-18 21:19:00

Remember the Shadow of the LittleBigColossus level? That boss at the end actually required the player pull a switch on the head to kill it, but the brain was embedded inside the body. Expand on that idea.2008-10-18 21:41:00

Well, I came up with a rather crude way of defeating a large enemy when I made my big dragon in the beta.

The boss fight is at the end, starting from 5:00 on.

It does involve destroying multiple parts in order to get to the weak point, but what I found was that attaching a brain to something that large just didn't work. I have encountered some enemies in the retail version that had multiple brains though and the final boss was definitely something interesting as well in those regards.

I'd have to test how the destruction and placement of multiple brains affect a "complicated" monster, but at least I know it's possible.		2008-10-18 21:42:00

is it possible to make an enimie that changes after every part you destory, for exmaple my be a boss and you could destory the bottom half by hitting the brain but know it can float about
.

if im not making sence im sorry
imagine a boss, bottom it like a crab, it body like human, it arms are like the haunter from pokemin head like lion and wings like a bird, could i makle it so that their different stages where first you have to destory the crab part, but once that happen i can make him fly about, droping bombs, next i destory the body and it a head floating with hands and so on		2008-10-19 14:00:00

With a bit of tinkering, it's definitely possible to make enemies that change patterns when different parts are destroyed. It just takes a lot of time and patience to get everything working as intended. And lots of triggers.2008-10-19 15:06:00

good question, in a level of mine i have a spot where you need to kill the boss with bombs and though im not sure if it was a bomb that sqashed the brain or a piece of the monster between the bomb and brain but i have seen the brain pop!		2008-10-20 01:02:00

Thanks for trying!!!
But reading some of the other peeps are saying they have maybe seen this happen. Did you remember to enter play mode instead of create mode, as i think even in create even when not in floating mode you don't kill brains???? or maybe you need more force in the objects you are dropping on to the brains
Also try maybe explosives??

You should try putting a magnetic key switch on the brain, then put magnetic keys on the blocks, setting off hidden explosives right underneath the brain.		2008-10-20 20:41:00

That's not true. Brains are rather resilient when it comes to anything outside of Sackboy's touch. Dragon Siege just involves getting the bomb to hit a trigger that blows it up. If you look at my YouTube - LittleBigPlanet - Red Rings of Burninating at 00:45, you'll see explosions do not affect the brain of the 360 controller monsters. In fact, the brain can be dislodged from the enemy with the enemy still functioning.		2008-10-20 21:36:00

You could, make the enemies out of dissolve material, sticker them up so they look good, put the switch where you like, then dissolve most of the enemy and jump on the brain to finish it off.		2008-10-21 07:28:00

To people with the game, could you please give a clear yes/no answer to this question:

Is it possible to make a trigger destroy an enemy brain, for example a trigger that activates a piston which will applies strong pressure to the brain, making it pop?

It may be possible. So may dropping objects such as blocks on them. Some idiot tested it and stayed in create mode. I'll test when I get home.		2008-10-21 15:01:00

Then again, think about it, is it really necessary for an enemy to have a brain anyway? I made a yeti in my first level (which was taken out later) which started out having a brain, but then I found out it was useless as I used an explosive to blow up the brain, so instead I used the explosive to just blow him up.2008-10-21 21:51:00

Short answer... no. I'll give the long answer later on after some needed sleep. Believe me though, I've tried everything from high velocity explosives to thwomp-like smashing.		2008-10-22 06:27:00

You don't really need a brain, that's true. But you do need one to be able to use the movement patterns based on the player's position. For example if you want an enemy to follow the player in either direction, you can't do it without a brain.

Stationary bosses don't really need brains that much, it's often easier to make them 'die' with ordinary triggers. That way it's easier to make them last multiple hits as well.		2008-10-22 07:35:00

Here's an example of an enemy taking three hits:

Set three pressure triggers on the boss. Hitting the first one opens the route to the second trigger. Hitting the second trigger opens up the route to the third one. Hitting the third one activates the 'death sequence', which can be whatever you want - shutting down emitters, making the enemy dissolve if it's made of dissolvable materials, setting off explosives within the boss or any other way of killing the enemy.

Being inventive, you can even have different ways of killing a boss. For example, you can have a grab trigger that Sackboy has to grab on to for a long enough time to kill the boss or score a hit.		2008-10-22 15:16:00

I've always found it annoying that you can only jump on it's brain.

Then again, it's basically that in Mario.

Maybe you could have like multiple switches attatched to your enemy and then you would have to kill it while its attacking you by pulling and hitting the multiple switches around it's body?		2008-10-22 22:07:00

The only thing I was able to think of are different devices that shoot or activate an explosive in some way.

Sure, surround the brain by polyestrane or some similar soft material and fire the cannon at it.

But if there's a brain in there, you'd need to jump on the brain after wards. so, if you don't want that, hm...

Probably, you'd need to make the brain unprotected, and includebombs in there that will explode and destroy the thing.

Maybe... a switch trigger may work? Connect them to impact explosives, and then when the cannonball is close enough it'll make it explode... just some random thoughts.		2008-11-02 20:52:00

If you're creative, surely there are lots of ways to kill an enemy. The way that springs to mind is to hide the brain in a box inside the enemy's body. Then set other tasks which must be completed in order to make the brain accessible before you can smash it in. A bit like Shadow of the Colossus!2008-11-04 13:30:00

I'm a huge fan of epic boss fights but not a fan of just jumping on a bunch of bubbles to beat them.

The good news is: There ARE many ways for a boss to die. You just have to build it.

On the first level I built, the boss encounter works like this:

-There's a health meter on the top right of the room. It's actually a yellow & red block, controlled by a winch.

-Under a certain condition, the health meter gradually and slowly depletes.

-The health meter has a key switch attached to it, and once the boss is out of health, you win.


More specifically:

-The theme of the level is "Minotaur's Labyrinth", and the boss is a giant dog who wondered into the Minotaur's explosives storage and ate all the explosives. The Minotaur asks you to rid him of the animal.

-The dog sits atop a conveyor belt and regurgitates bombs at you that you have to avoid. I did not use a creature brain.

-The dog's tail wagging downward at you, but out of your reach. There are disappearing/reappearing platforms that you have to climb to reach the tail. Grabbing the tail causes the health meter to go down but grabbing for more than 5 seconds makes him fart toxic gas at you, so you have to let go after 5 seconds, and then climb the platforms again to get at its tail.

-4 to 5 full tail grabs will deplete his health meter. Once his health is empty, the dog explodes, and a passage opens up, leading to the end of the level.		2008-11-13 01:05:00

A "monster" does not need to have a creature brain to be an enemy. Think of the final boss of the canyons, killed by multiple explosives. Or the final bosses of the metroplis, killed by bouncing the shot back to hit a button.

As others have said, you can attach multiple brains. There is a simple creature in the canyons with three brains that all must be popped before it dies. I am sure you could work this idea into a multiple health system.

You might also want to experiment with painted disolve material. They could disolve by impact, switches, sensors... There are more ways to kill objects - I mean "monsters" or "bosses", than just by hitting one preprogrammed destructable head. Be creative people!		2008-11-16 08:14:00

I've just recently noticed - although not directly related to killing the monster - that the speed in which you can set a monster move (using a brain) is really really slow!

Is there a way around this or am I just doing something wrong? I think the maximum speed is 4.0. This is especially annoying since its easy to overtake a fleeing monster.		2008-11-17 00:34:00

Well, this would really help with making it look like falling objects are killing a monster. Use a magnetic key pair that's hidden and that would kill anything.

As moley said, the paintinator did not exist when this thread was made, and I don't think anyone even considered attaching a one shot switch to a protected brain before it. It was... not obvious. :blush:		2009-01-03 04:48:00

well since the metal gear expansion came out, there's an unlockable with the health bar and you can tweak it to how many shots you want it to take to kill it with the paintinator. Just attach it to your creature, then attach the switch to the creature. Then maybe add a brain that's hidden in the creature that only comes out after it's health bar is depleted and that's my theory. Lol2009-01-06 23:59:00

Alright, this thread was made well before the MGS packs. In fact, it was a week before the US release date of LittleBigPlanet. No more mentioning of the Paintinator. Yes, it can obviously be used as a new means of defeating enemies, but this thread is to come up with ways besides jumping on the Brain, and now, using the Paintinator. This whole deal with the Paintinator is just getting annoying now.2009-01-07 00:04:00

For a boss you could make the brain unreachable and have some way to release something from the ceiling to hit it on the head?2009-01-07 00:13:00

Only a player can hit a Brain to kill an enemy. :/		2009-01-07 00:23:00

oh really? I swear I've flipped an enemy over and the brain got squished when it rolled over it.... maybe I'm going crazy		2009-01-07 00:40:00

Nope, can only be done by a player or with the Paintinator.

Actually, now that I think about it, something like that might be possible. With the new discovery of being able to capture a paintball, a paintball could be emitted to hit a Brain. However, I don't believe anyone has tested to see if a paintball that is not shot from the Paintinator will destroy a Brain.		2009-01-07 00:43:00

Oh hahaha, my bad, sorry about starting that entire thing, someone neg repped me oh well, i am sorry to whomever that hurt/offended in anyway, but hey it came out it can make for interesting boss fights with a bunch of those things all over it with one hit each, and a small part falls off, each time you hit it.

Ok time to stop talking about the paintinator. but here is an interesting theory, what if you were to make an enemy out of, a really light material to say, and you activate a switch which make a giant metal block fall out of the sky, and that thing gets completely squished and it breaks under the pressure of it.

I'll personally verify that this works. I will be using it in my upcoming level. I have a creature with an invulnerable brain, but at some point a giant block of cement comes down and crushes the creature. The whole thing disappears.

So yes, it's entirely possible to do this, even with invulnerable brains.		2009-01-07 09:03:00

Can't help but think "slapping" a huge demi-god boss would feel a bit... out of place.
You'd never get the slap system to work, and if you were doing it multiplayer and you kept slapping your friends by accident it'd get really annoying.
But I agree, only being able to jump on there brain (/use paintinator now) is a bit lame, needs a better combat interface.		2009-01-07 19:22:00
