Little Big Battle Racing

Archive: 8 posts


Hey look! It's this guy again, and he has another level...

Anyway, this is a top-down racer that I wanted to make once I beat the game, and I did, so I made it. It took about four days to get it to this point, and I'm pretty happy with it. You start off choosing your cars, and map, then you get a nice five map race on the track of your choosing. The cool thing is I set it up so that I can add more cars, and more maps if the game grows in popularity, as well as send people templates so they can make their own cars and maps.

As of posting this it has 3 plays, and 2 dislikes... So I'm starting to wonder if there isn't something severely wrong with it. Still, please give it some plays, and give me some feedback. I will be sure to return the favor.

I'm not on my PS3 but I can give you some advice from the video. The idea that you've got weapons is cool. But how about making a track/tracks that are bigger. You can use the movie camera to get a larger view I believe. Also You can see the tracks don't have very much going on aestetically. Maybe racing around in a dessert or jungle or a city or something would be enjoyed more than a chalkboard track. Hope that helps you a bit.2011-02-07 02:05:00

nice concept but you are lacking in visuals. dark matter is never something people want to see and the face that it is all over the level kinda makes it look ugly. I like how you added stats to the cars very nice addition. With the multiple weapons to help you win is also but fire one rocket and actually hitting th person is kinda hard so maybe do something else like that maybe a spread shot? other then that it seems fun but it's not very visually appealing. Hope this helps I only watched video so i'm going based on that but I will play the level with some friend later :]. If you want you should try my versus level with some of your friends and get a perspective on visual work. http://lbp.me/v/wzjpr02011-02-07 02:09:00

Kitkasumass:
Unfortunately the camera doesn't actually get any bigger, which was a huge obstacle for the track building. I think I can pull off some much cooler tracks, but I wanted to make sure the game-play was solid first.

Ghost:
The rocket is actually surprisingly easy to aim. You might see that if you play with some friends. Also, that was light matter, but still I got the point. I changed it to Neon Bevel, I hope that is more attractive.
-Level Q'ed-

The Idea of better looking tracks seems solid. I wanted the original ones to look like traditional race courses. I'm already working on a third, so I will defiantly mess with the visuals on it.

I want to try your level but the super bowl is on so that means all TVs are not for gaming atm lol. But some advice for visuals, adding little thinks like a fake crowd or arrows on the track or made up company logos on the track can make your level look interesting.2011-02-07 02:36:00

I played your level. The level was really well done and would have great, but the controll ruined it. When i was turning, it always turned the wrong way! But as i said, everything else was great!2011-02-11 11:27:00

I just finished my first rounds in your game...

I like the menues, the two different tracks, the fact that there are weapons and power ups. But I think you have to work on the steering and the handling of your little racecars. Felt more like a prius on ice than a car on a racetrack. And everytime i had to drive backwards because i drove into a wall i drove in the wrong direction first. You should invert the controls when driving backwards for a more athentic feeling.

But you are on a good way. I think your game has a lot of potential!

No much to say Lewk.

The controls are the issue here. Especially reverse, to me the reverse controls went the opposite way the should have. See if you can invert them.

See if you can make the cars corner better too.

Please try my level and review it on my thread:
