http://www.wouterbrinkman.nl/stuff/SackComplex.jpgSack Complex is obviously the LittleBigPlanet counterpart of Shadow Complex, a sidescrolling shooter on XboxLiveArcade.

You are out and about with your girlfriend who suddenly goes missing. In your search for her, you stumble upon a large underground complex inhabited by a secret militant group. Can you save your friend?
With this level I've tried to bring as much of Shadow Complex to LBP as the game would allow me. In short, everything in Shadow Complex up to the first boss is ported, and then the thermometer gave up.

You will explore caves, find objects, wallclimb your way through the complex. There are air ducts to squeeze through, sentry bots to take out (watch out for splash damage!) and enemies to splatter with your trusty paintinator. And similar to the XBLA game, you will be able to backtrack if needed to find more secrets.

I hope you'll enjoy playing it, it's been good fun trying to copy/build it.

If you are unfamiliar with Shadow Complex or want to compare my level to the real thing, try the video playthrough here (http://www.gameanyone.com/video/154338) [part 1-3, part one starting at 5:40 and onward]

I just played your level and heres my feedback

Positive:
+Scenary looked really good
+Building looked amazing really detailed
+Rocket smoke as the waterfall was pretty unique never thought of that

Negatives:
-I couldn't finish the level because after I got the paintnator from the room it lead me back to the lobby were I first came from and then I was stuck were to go..

Sugguestions
-Move the 1st speech bubbles near the edge where you drop down in the beginning because it seems like your yelling your "coming down" at the ground.
-When you find the climbing gear and grab it you should have it dissolve to show your got it instead of it still being there after you grabbed it.

Overall the level was worth playing and it looked really good::star::star::star:

Thanks for the feedback, might update the level accordingly later, you have some good points.

After you get the paintinator, try shooting the yellow floorpanels / air ducts to continue on.
In Shadow Complex you get a little hint where to go with a tiny cutscene, I skipped out on that.

EDIT: Hint on where to go next added in, along with a little magic mouth explaining you can shoot ventilation panels to open up.
