Hello everyone, sorry I didn't post a new level roundup, the creator itnerview's late and I won't be posting other posts as I'm taking another break sadly and can't guarentee I'll come back but I will be posting another interview this week. Here's the 43rd interview you for you guys, this time I've interviewed soarecucolti, creator of the beautiful yet puzzling "Colour Your Dreams" series. Anyway, here's the interview. 1. Out of all the levels, objects, or something else in Little Big Planet you've published whether they're still up are no longer available to play, which would be your favorite? One of my favourite objects is the Succubus woman I made for "The road to dracula's castle" level. It's not that great or special, but I was very proud when I made it. Maybe because it was one of the very first objects I made. Also, I'm proud of both "Colour your dreams" levels. I tried to make something different from the LBP norm and I think I succeded. 2. Are there any levels, objects, music or something else in Little Big Planet that you're working on and if so, you could you give us some information about it? (This could be anything like the title, theme, plot, pictures or even a trailer) No. Not for the momment anyway. I'm waiting for LBP2, to see how the creat tool is working and maybe then I'll try to make something new. I want to see what new posibilities will open before me. Anyway, I need a good ideea before creating a level. I have some vague things in mind, but nothing very clear. 3. Are there any levels or creators in Little Big Planet that inspire you to keep creating or that you at least like? Of course. There are tons of levels I love and even more I get inspired from. 4. When and how exactly did you get Little Big Planet? I don't remember exactly, but I think I bought LBP a year and half ago. It was after reading so much great reviews on the internet. At first play I wasn't so much into it, I even made a great break from playing it, but after I played more, I felt in love. And after starting to create, I knew it was my kind of thing. 5. How did you get the name soarecucolti? Soarecucolti in romanian means "Sun with fangs". It's used to caracterise a bitter-sweet thing. I'm some of both, so it suits me well 6. Is there anything you use as sort of a symbol for you in Little Big Planet? (This could be anything like an object that could be hidden or regularly placed in your levels, one that you just have in create, etc.) Well, the Sun stiker is perfect for my nickname, so I guess I have to pick that one. 7. Have you had any glitches or bugs in create that might've been devastating or just downright weird? If so, could you try explaining some? Yes, I had several. The most annoying was the one that didn't save my progress on the creation of a level. I could save normally and apparently everything was fine, but when I got out of the create mode and reentered it, nothing was saved. That was really bad, especially since I was at the half of the level (Colour your dreams 2). I even thought about quiting. Fortunately, the bug got away at some point, but I don't remember exactely how. I hope this won't happen again in LBP2. 8. Is there anything or anyone outside of Little Big Planet that inspires you to create or that you just like? Yes. I got inspired by a lot of great games. Like Shadow of the colossus, Ico, or Flower. Well, that's easy to see if you play my levels. In general, I love games whit a lot of mood, clever lighting effects and with beautiful art style. I work as a grafic artist, so the visual part in everything I make is very important for me. 9. Are there any tips or tricks you could provide for creating(This could be a basic tip like to not use too many corners if you wanna save thermometer or something more detailed like certain stickers tat help or well, any tips you find useful. It could be about lighting, stickers, music, objects, platforming, saving thermometer, etc.) Hm... nothing special croses my mind. I don't have any secret skills when creating. I only try to make thing very optimised, with the less corners possible. 10. If you could add or change something in Little Big Planet or in Little Big Planet 2 that you haven't heard being added or changed, what would it be? There were a lot of things that I thought could be changed in LBP, but I've seen they've allready been changed for the good in LBP2. 11. What is your greatest achievment(s) related to Little Big Planet (This could be anyting like winning a certain contest, getting one of your levels an MM pick, getting a certain amount of plays or hearts, etc.) I won the 7th LBR Trophy Competition for "Colour your dreams 2" level. That's the greatest official achievment I got. 12. Are there any other games that you enjoy that you're currently playing, used to play or just a game that you're lookinng forward to besides Little Big Planet or Little Big Planet 2? Yep, lots of. I'm now playing 3d dot game heroes and Assassin's creed brotherhood. In the near future I'll purchase Mass effect 2 and, of course, LBP2 P.S. I couldn't have pic of creator's profile cause my PS3 no longer works anymore D:

Thanks for posting this, Drago. Soarecucolti is another of my favourite "undiscovered" creators. So glad you asked about his name, as I'd always wondered! Really sorry to hear about your PS3. Hope you get back soon!
