So.....I was chilling with my pet random monkey the other day....he usually lives inside my head but I let him out for a couple of drinks at weekends....he turns to me and says " Hey E, why not publish some of that random crap you have lying around stinking up your moon?...you know the weird level ideas I whisper in your ear while you sleep!" http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo195/liampatrickberry/helpermonkey.jpg so here's the result.... http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo195/liampatrickberry/chef2.jpg http://i375.photobucket.com/albums/oo195/liampatrickberry/chef.jpg A double header!

Thanks dude. I enjoyed making the Chef level as a nominal entry in the muppet level genre. I've played quite a few muppet levels with slick gameplay and polished finish but they all seem to miss the point. The muppets was really random in nature with a slant towards whacky anarchic humour and slightly shoddy sets, most of the LBP levels don't reflect that. The Shufflin' Sacks was fun to make but I stopped making it a while back and on returning to it I had trouble remembering how things worked lol! I might make a slicker second version sometime and get a logic person on board to help with more fluid transitions but will definitely keep the stickering in place as there aren't a lot of levels that actually rely on that as a central gameplay feature.

I played it the other day and found the 1st part humorous and weird. Random for sure. Shufflin' Sacks. This I liked. Great idea and fun. Some of them you really had to concentrate to keep up with the character. Loved using the sticker instead of some fancy cursor to move about with the Move. Great job on it.

Thanks once again for the feedback dude. The Meatballs did pretty well despite the overall randomness. I might look to re-make the shufflin'sacks as the concept is sound and with a little tightening could be even more fun.

In celebration of the level passing the 1000 heart mark I give you the chefs swedish meatball recipe.. Serves 4?6 For the meatballs ? a handful of mixed fresh herbs, such as dill, flat-leaf parsley or chives, roughly chopped ? 300g minced pork, the best quality you can afford ? 300g minced beef ? 1 large egg, preferably free-range or organic ? 100ml milk ? 75g dried breadcrumbs ? 1 teaspoon ground allspice ? sea salt and freshly ground black pepper ? olive oil For the sauce ? juice of ? a lemon ? 300ml beef stock, preferably organic (if using a stock cube, ? is enough) ? 1 tablespoon plain flour ? 60ml double cream ? 1 x 200g jar of lingon berry, cranberry, blackberry or blackcurrant jam, to serve Even people who don't know much about Swedish food will probably at least have heard of, or tried, the great dish that is Swedish meatballs ? especially since Ikea took over the world (I've been told they sell loads of these in their cafeterias). Paired with mash and warm lingon berry sauce, they make a perfect meal: tasty, comforting, with a hint of sweetness. If you've got a load of people coming for dinner you could make a batch or two of these and let everyone help themselves. These meatballs are easy to make; just make sure you've got a wide casserole-type pan. It will make your life easier and you'll use it all the time, so it's worth investing in. Set aside a few of the herbs, then put the rest into a large bowl with the pork, beef, egg, milk, breadcrumbs and allspice. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper, then get your clean hands in there and scrunch and mix it well. Divide the mixture in half, then pat and roll each half into a sausage shape. Cut each one into 15 equal pieces, then wet your hands and roll 30 little balls. Keep wetting your hands as you go so you get nice round elegant meatballs. Put them on a large oiled tray, then cover with clingfilm and pop into the fridge for 1 hour to firm up. When you're ready to cook, put your largest pan on a medium heat and add a glug of olive oil. Once hot, add the meatballs and fry gently for 10 to 15 minutes, tossing occasionally, until they are golden brown. Transfer the meatballs to a large plate. Spoon away any excess fat from the pan, then add the lemon juice, a splash of stock, the flour, the cream, a heaped tablespoon of lingon berry or berry jam and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and reduce until you have a nice consistency that will cling to the meatballs. Taste it, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Return the meatballs to the pan and move them around so they get coated in the sauce. Serve your meatballs ? eight per person is about right ? drizzled with any lovely sauce left in the pan and with a few spoonfuls of warmed-up jam on top. They'll go brilliantly next to mashed or crispy potatoes, or even rice, but personally, I love these on top of smashed celeriac mash. Sprinkle over your reserved chopped herbs and tuck in! For the LBP version add rubber and an alternating lethalisation switch!
