Better Life Factory

Better Life FactoryFreeAim
Get ready for a action packed adventure... Even that it is short.
One day when I saw LBP 2 gameplay from this site, I noticed a level that I found very inspirating. I taked ideas from it and made a level. However I never finished creating since I lost inspiration. I just thaught: 'Okay, I make a finish to this level and publish it unfinished'. I didn't want to ruin the good work. My new level, Better Life Factory is now published. It's unfinished and short, so please, when you rate it please don't mention it's length. I know it already. Level has taken a lots of inspiration from LBP2 theme: ''Factory of Better tomorrow'', and it contains my own made bouncepads and tubes. I also wanted to include some of my good skills of making characters and artworks into the level. I want you to play this level alone, simply because of tubes or bouncepads misbehave if you play with 2 or more players. I just wanted to publish this level here so you could tell me what you think. Since it's F4F I'll promise to give feedback to you in one week from your feedback. If you don't hear anything from me, then send me a PM reminder, thank you!

Going to check it ASAP ofcourse for F4F my good funky looking mate..

Very good level overall but I was very frustrated by the lack of quality. It went downhill from the start.. You started out with a very detailed and decorated level and ended with random things.
Rated 3 stars because i sense potential

Hey Freeaim, I tried this out today, and I think it's pretty decent. I don't really know what you were going for in looks, but I think generally it looked pretty good. The main focus for me was the platforming. I had a good time bouncing around, and think your bounce pads work really good. As far as the level not being complete, well, maybe youll find some inspiration some day to finish it. As of now though I think you have a decent start.2010-09-22 23:49:00

Nice level. I loved the simple colorful designs. The green tubes and bounce pads were perfect. Many of the motors and pistons were nit hidden, but that really didn't matter, excluding the hand, where that bother me just a little. All of the carboard is unpainted, you could have added some details to that, it seemed unfinished in that part (i.e. hand and moster at start). The cameras that poped up from the magic mouth lacked text, so that also seemed unfinished. Just something like "that way" would have been great. I wish the hand also did something if you put the wrong fingers up...I was hoping to get killed when I selected the middle. The wall crusher may have been a bit fast, but not really. I wish you did not have infinate check points all over, just seemed wayyyyyyyyy to easy. The second grabby was a little high up with no camera angle to hint to what it did, and I still don't know what the first one did. Also the spring to get ot the second one is a bit harder because you can't bouce more than once on the srings with out the background blocking you from landing on it again. The level seemed a little short, would have loved a large bouncy area with points to get. Great level, just those things were all I could think of for the level.2010-09-24 02:41:00

Nice work on this level. The mechanics of this level worked really well and the visuals looked great too. The finger moving puzzle is simple but fun and the dialogue gives some laughs too. The only flaw I could think of right now is the first bouncy part where you jump in the first green pipe that the bouncer doesn't seem to make you jump high enough some times. Overall this level deserves 5 stars.

Play and F4F any one of "The Hero Chronicles" levels.
