http://austindiscgolf.org/blastroid/eit_title.png VITA LBP.ME LINK http://ic.api.vita.lbp.me/img/bl/64c0c8000991c8dd84810f9e780b61fc5a8a0f70.png (http://vita.lbp.me/v/zm0m) This is just the introduction to the level. The sets are designed to work for the cinematic and actual game play. For example the doors you see in game play will have a touch notice on the so you can enter/exit. The ending on this test is just a placeholder until I get the game play finished. Description: This level was heavily inspired by D.O.T.T. (Day Of The Tentacle), one of my all time favorite old games. In the game play you will have full control to switch between the two main characters Timey (I know it is a misspelled name but I am going with word play) and Tocker. Timey is stuck in the future without a time reversal module. Tocker in the present with the help of Dr. Brown must help alter the future from the present to accomplish tasks to help build the module.

I am trying a new technique to emit the entire level as you play it. For cinematics this is easy as when you emit a scene with a camera the camera takes control automatically. This is how I can put so much detail into the level. As you are viewing the cinematic I am emitting the next scene and destroying a previous one. This also helps the levels from not slowing down when too many things had the potential to be emitted. I also created a simple sequencer so in create I can switch and test each scene without having to go though the entire intro each time. http://id.api.vita.lbp.me/img/ft/2addbb01acbeced975af4688dbac366e5a610feb.jpg

I played this level the other day, but didn't realise it was yours Well as my review said - this level is awesome! Great detailed cutscene shows you're a great creator and I can't wait to see if the gameplay lives up t it!

As long as your visuals are as strong as this, you'll have no trouble getting tonnes of plays and 's Good luck, this is destined to be great Saw that and thanks for the review. Just waiting on then to patch the store so I can get my LBP2 costumes. I designed the walkie talkie looking things off of the remote from PS3 LBP in hopes it will transfer over and the characters can be holding them. I have already started on the play design and I am loving the camera pans. Still platformer angle but with the old school Zelda screen pan design so if you move to the edge of a scene you end up on another scene. I am also hoping to use the memorizer so you can play where you left off. Although the level will not be too long it will take a few minutes to complete all the tasks to get Timey back safe and sound.

Not allot of plays or feedback as of yet. In the spoiler below I am showing my entire story board for the level. If you want to be surprised then do not click. This being my first real Vita level I want to put allot of time and effort to do it correct. This is the first time I have done a story board for a level but this level is very dialog even driven and things have to be setup in a particular order for everything to flow and be in the right sport when the story asks for it. Please do not try and pick apart the realism as it is a comical story and you must set aside some realism to do so. You will see my DOTT and Back To The Future influences in the dialog. One of the main concerns I have is how to present the level since it is not at all a platformer and more of a interactive cinematic. I know some kids will come back with it has too much dialog. Where the dialog really is the level for this genre. SCENES – DIALOG CHARACTERS NEEDED: • Timey – Playable character sent to the future. • Tocker – Playable friend/brother in the present. • Dr. Brown – Neighbor scientist who creates stuff. • Mr. Mitchell – Parking lot owner. SCENES NEEDED: • Intro Title • [Present] Planet View • [Present] Google Style Map View Over Boy's House • [Present] Boy's House Inside • [Present] Brown's House Outside • [Present] Brown's House Inside 1st Floor • Time Travel • [Future] Planet View • [Future] Large Tree & Hovering Car • [Present] Shed & Small Tree • [Future] Playground & Hovering Car • [Present] Cemetery • [Future] Cemetery • [Future] Store • [Present] Brown's House Inside 2nd Floor – Computer Room • [Future] ATM Machine • [Future] Sackbot Factory • [Present] Parking Lot • [Future] Parking Lot ------------ Cinematics ----------- Intro Description: Clock background with title “Echo In Time” animated.
