Think Before You Jump!

Archive: 15 posts


Hey LBPCentral! I finally finished my first real level in LittleBigPlanet 2. It's a platformer in which every time the player jumps, certain platforms flip and flop about. It's pretty tough but I hope everyone can enjoy it! Thanks! Let me know what you think!

*I just edited and republished the level earlier today, I fixed an issue with the race ending gate, more plasma boundaries, as well as changed/tweaked some stuff so the level is more fun and a lot less janky. I urge everyone to give it a go and try for a speedrun! Place the "Yay" sticker you get from beating the level on the sticker switch to activate the race gates!

Wow, this level is brilliant!
One of the few levels where jumping towards spikes is a good thing to do!

Someone who Smokes pixie sticks with Morgana25 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPYYOnXvbL4), Steals Tiger Woods' Golf Clubs, and vandalizes Tom and Spaff faces, you know an average guy

Man its great to see you back! Video as welcome gift

It was very fun. Great length (not long and not short, right in the middle), difficult i found was quite easy, could be from quick wits with the concept i suppose but if its compatible with 4 players then thats going to be crazy trying to do.

I had trouble with the vertical green ones with Bounce pads that you had to use to cross (mainly at the very end of the level), maybe that should've been explained better i suppose, i just used them as momentum and soared high to cross over. I also couldn't find the finish for the race gate. No one else has found it either ,such a shame that was an incredible speed run from that video (though i did find a platform way up in the sky at 4:27 in the vid) ). So i guess you didn't put one, Though i'm curious as to where you could put it. Not any flat ground to put it near the end.

Hey folks, thanks for the kind words! I just fixed up as well as changed some minor things in the level so I thought I'd let everyone know.

Thanks for the compliment Deurklink! Haha, it's true, however I still get a little scared when I jump into the spikes even after the 500th time XD

Hey jwwphotos! Awesome to see a familiar face 'round these parts. It's certainly been a while! Let me know what you think if you get the chance to give it a go! Also we should play sometime! Are you working on anything?

Hahahaha It's great to see you too, thanks so much for the video!! You're awesome!

Thanks for all the feedback, I fixed everything that you mentioned, I made the bounce pads bounce a little better and fixed some of the jankiness. Also..... how do I put this.... I forgot to include the finish gate XD My bad, but it's in there now! So I urge you to give it a go! Thanks again JKthree!!

Hello!

Great level, FULLGOR! I love it. Very cool main idea, good realization with many interesting obstacles mechanics and nice decorations! I love it.

I did find JKthree's video, so I recorded my own for levels recommendations thread on Russian LBP Fun community site. Here is HD video:

Will wait for something new from you!

From Russia with love,

Brilliant work. The woodwork is simply amazing and a nice background for your evil genius. I played this before the updates, so I'll have to go back and give it another go.2012-05-16 22:47:00

woo hoo! got a chance to take a look at this the other day and have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed it. What a clever idea and just like the title, you really have to stop and think. Loved the design and the game play was spot on good. One tiny, teeny, eeny issue though. When I finally get to the scoreboard and I'm standing there, arms raised in a triumphant pose, the scoreboard rotates back down and I'm impaled on spikes. Then I respawn again and again from the scoreboard and I'm repeatedly tortured with spikes. My poor little sackguy looks like a noodle strainer. LOL, Great level man. I had a blast, thank you.2012-05-17 12:24:00

I enjoyed it very much! Near the end I sometimes was thrown back to the left a little bit, and fell down all the way to the bottom of the level. And the end-portal was a bit unclear, maybe a better camera angle would help 2012-05-19 14:44:00

This level was brilliantly executed. I loved it! I went ahead and decided to try for a high score, but I discovered a way to skip half of the level, so I obtained the high score without much contest .2012-05-19 22:11:00

Great level, Fullgorr! I honestly LOVED playing through it! Great way to make something a little cooler than the average wooden checkpoint. Gameplay was awesome, and an overall fantastic concept. Have you ever played super mario galaxy, or 3D land? they have these flip switches very similar to what you created here. However, I like the way you you were able to put that sort of gameplay device in LBP Overall, a great play, can't wait to see more from you!2012-05-20 09:20:00
