"Over The Fence!" 2 player minigameAssassinatorRFC
"Over the Fence!" is a competitive minigame where 2 players are fighting to get the cleanest garden by lobbing their rubbish over the fence into the other garden! Be sure to play this with 2 players or even 4 if you want even more of a challenge!
Hello all! I come baring the gift of a fun level in this "dying" community. This is a competitive minigame where players fight against eachother to get score. Here are some pictures:

that level looks GREAT!

I just get overexited when I see those backgrounds.. it's beautiful hahah. I love the idea too, altho I'll have to go play it before I can say more, cause I'm not sure I understand everything.

I'll edit this post in a minute.

EDIT: It was incredible. Although that was a mini game for the contest, it was an epic level. I love the scenery, lots of awesome details, the idea is great and really innovative, cool level ending and such.

As I had a small sneak peak at this level before it got published I know I love it so here's a small review.
I do play by play reviews so get used to it
Me and my fellow sack (local victim aka brother) enter an unknown realm where we are forced to pick a side so I go left and he goes right.
Before I grab my button I take a look around.... I see a very detailed 3D surrounding I run over the lovely pond and stand near the fence.
The other side has a marvellous green house and a nicely detailed house next to it completing the picture.
We grab our buttons and await for the fun to begin.

I grab the ladder and throw it over the fence smacking my brother in da faace with it.
As he is rather experienced and I refuse to tell him how he should swing that lawnmower I easily throw over all of my stuff and fill up his side very quickly.
He found a way to throw some objects back at me such as the ball cuz it's so tiny.
And aaawh the fun is over But hey a funky scoreboard area welcomes me and declares that I am ze winner =D ^^

Details::star::star::star::star::star:
Fun::star::star::star::star::star:
Originality::star::star::star::star::star:
So overall score :star::star::star::star::star: and I'd heart your level but your in my friendlist anyhow so I don't need to heart it. I can find it anyhow by going there. BUT It does deserve a heart. Basically I just smashed X to fast and forgot to heart you ^^My bad
So mad work and have a nice day =D		2010-12-05 20:12:00

[No feedback needed] Here is my (somewhat) quick review of the level:

At first, when I entered the level I never noticed the v3D visuals but my partner did. He didn't want to play, just look at the 3D background. After a few minutes of watching him drool on his sock I forced him to play. It took awhile to get the objects over the fence because of the checkpoint being in the Theck area. After the mini game finished he looked at the 3D background a bit more then I dragged his little sack-legs over to scoreboard. This was a very thoughtful level but here is my opinion: Put the checkpoint somewhere else, it is hard to throw objects over the fence when a checkpoint in blocking the way. Also, make I might suggest keeping the throw-able objects in the front-most layer, it was hard to pick up objects in the back layer because of the 3D background/camera.

Here is my stars:
Visuals :star::star::star::star::star:
Gameplay :star::star::star::star:
Creativity :star::star::star::star::star:

Overall: :star::star::star::star: + <3		2010-12-05 23:28:00

[Update]

Upon reading your reviews (which I was really happy with ) I have found and solved the problem of the objects getting stuck on the checkpoints by using a foreground checkpoint and moving the logic that works out which side the piece is on closer to the fence and shrinking it.

I would like to thank all of you for your lovely constructive reviews and keep 'em coming! 		2010-12-08 00:36:00

F4F
Hi there, i played your level the other day and thought it was amazing, the 3D backgrounds were astonishing, well done.
I love the idea, very original. I believe that if you publish this level again on LBP2 when it comes out, and award points for rubbish being thrown over, this will turn into one of THE best minigames out there.
I gave your level :star::star::star::star::star: and a <3, well done

If you could do F4F on my 'Union Freight' lvl in my sig, it would be very much appreciated, thanks.		2010-12-08 11:56:00

Hey I was thinking...is the level overheated? it would be cool if you did this same thing but with different like settings, like Neighborhood (which you did), City, playground etc it think it would be pretty cool ^_____^.
idk how F4F works lol =( but could you play my levels and leave feedback? and if you know about F4F explain to me please >_< .		2010-12-10 18:41:00

Yeah just bare in mind that this was a concept level and I am planning to rebuild in LBP2!

And F4F is feedback4feedback. In other words you play my level and give some constructive comments on the level and then I return the favour on one of your F4F level threads 		2010-12-10 21:05:00

Hi there! Thank you for playing my level Explosive Adventures, and recording it. I'm here to return the favour. I didn't realise it was a 2-player challenge, so the only other person I could play with was my 9 year old sister. Sorry >.<

Good
-Looks lovely
-Nothing broke
-Fun and original
-Simple yet effective idea
-Handled the timing thing and points well

Improvements
-We found the jetpack tether was too short, and bigger objects like the ladder were difficult
-If one player is quick enough, he or she can clump the objects on the other side, making hard for them to move any
-My sister got crushed under said clump, but that's not too bad

Overall, it was a very fun and original level. Just a few minor quibbles that mean I gave it :star::star::star::star::star: Well done 		2010-12-16 20:39:00

Thanks for the feedback kirby! I have had the trending comment that the tethers were too short.

To be honest it won't matter because I plan to use grabinators in lbp2 and a better scoring system 		2010-12-16 23:21:00

What does everything think about re-producing the idea in lbp2?		2010-12-25 00:45:00

Great little level! A fun idea that was implemented really well!
The 3D was really well done, it looked just like a suburb. The gameplay was fun (I stunk at it though lol) and I could see it getting really intense if you were playing four player. One suggestion would be to somehow make you be able to fly up high at the gate and not just at the ground level.

Great level! 5 stars and a heart!

F4F: Fight for Justice... the link is in my sig.		2011-01-01 16:53:00

Cool! I will have the F4F as soon as I can! also this was just a concept for lbp2. Sadly someone has already borrowed the idea and done it with point switches and grabinators

Anyways thanks for the feedback and the play!		2011-01-02 02:02:00
