Hey man, I watched some of your video but stopped because I wan't to play it. I love the look (from what I could tell on the video) and before playing it I have a few things for you to consider, without your narration it might be somewhat difficult to realize you need to find the mask, in my experience due to the large amount of poorly made levels in LBP people tend to see something that looks impossible as just that (can you really blame them?), and it may get passed off as a creator flaw rather than an interesting puzzle. I really can't say for sure til I play it though so it is really just for consideration. Ways to fix this should you chose is perhaps implementing a riddle (if your creative like that) or adding some text saying something like "How can I get past this?" ect. Also the levels title is called Temple of Test but due to the lack of added stone background it leaves it with the open forest, this makes it look outdoors and im not entirely sure if that what you meant, the only reason im confused at all is because the structure of the level made it seems in doors. If these don't seem accurate they may be just that, I will clarify upon playing the level.2009-01-01 08:02:00

Played through your level earlier today and first off I enjoyed it very much. Its a shame to hear it was up for a month and I'm only the second one on the scoreboard.

Anyways heres my review.

Things I liked about your level -

Great job on the layout. It looks good and plays good. That floating mask was probably one of the coolest things I've seen in LBP in a while. The obstacles and their difficulty throughout the level are spot on. I didnt have much problems with any of them and you knew what to do and where to go for them.
The sounds / music were all great as well.
The secrets you threw in there were nice as well.

Problems I had with your level -

Ok... theres only a few problems I saw... nothing big.. except for maybe that mask at the beginning.... was awesome the way you did it. But if I hadnt watched your video I wouldve never known how to find it.

The part after the blocks falling down where you need to roll the thing over the spike traps, was nice but difficult... I dont even know what it did when I got it to the other side though... heard the score bubbles somewhere but didnt go look for them.

The bridge after the boat ride was very nice looking, but I did fall through once... may have just been a fluke but it did happen.

The last part with the emitter, had some problems getting it to work right, but I found out why.

Suggestions -

For the mask at the beginning I'd recommend a chat bubble with a riddle or something, think someone else mentioned that. Could just make the trap door a little more obvious also... something along that lines... only real problem I had with your level.

That last part with the emitter, just make the switch that turns it on radius a little bit bigger. I was standing there on the ledge and they stopped shooting out not knowing why.

The arrow right at the beginning, right after the two spike traps, I would just take that out. Doesnt seem to fit with the decor and thats the only way you can go anyways.

Just a few suggestions that might make it a little bit better. But its already a great level in my opinion. So bring on the other 6 temples!

Give my level The Stone Temple a whirl if you get the time and let me know what you think. Thanks!
