A Genius At Work

Archive: 9 posts


the word genius is often overused, rather like 'Awesome' on forums or 'I love you' when you're lonely and need a short term companion, but what i give you here is without doubt 'Genius'. Some of you may know that i have created a tutorial thread over in the tutorial section (where else?); although some will probably know me better as Cliffbo. I've decided to forego updating the levels 'for inspiration' and am going to dedicate a section to the geniuses of LBP instead. this section will grow very very slowly because i'm looking for super-human's, not mere mortals with a grasp of level design and a flare for pulling them off.

i'm concentrating more on the actual mind behind the level/s, so although i'll give a link to one particular level that i think sums up the creator well, i would strongly advise people to take a look at all the levels on the moon. so without further ado (i've always wanted to write that) here is my first offering.

this is a creator that perhaps some of you are already aware of and i'm a little late to the party, but i was just impelled to make these changes to my thread because of this one person:

MMISKA: Hop to it! - PART 1 (http://lbp.me/v/14110b)

this person knows no limitation with an art style so unique it bleeds talent. often quirky... heck, ALWAYS quirky, what you will find here on this tiny moon is something incredible that will have you smiling til it aches.

If your looking for lesser known creators, go play MrMik68's levels. In some ways, very similar to Mnniska, they both have a fantastic talent for making really fun platformers that use the mechanics in ways you never even thought of.2011-10-14 00:05:00
