I couldn't really find any threads on this so I decided to post this here. Because of my active imagination, I find it really hard to work on levels with complex designs such as platformers or shooters. What I really need are some suggestions on how I should go about creating a level in LBP.

Well I'm a spontaneous creator- to an extent. I just play some platformers, think of some cool mechanisms, then think of how I could get them to work in a platformer. (That's what I create) I actually like platformers for that one reason; they're simple and straight-forward. Get from Point A to Point B, and don't die while doing it. You could probably get some graph paper (IRL of course) and draw on it using it as a 'small grid' and then just build it on LBP. Or you could build with friends- ones who could keep you on track and keep you from straying away from a project, or even help you with it.

Hi Eat 07. Hmmm.... Creating a level? If your the type of person that has a billion ideas but gets distracted from sticking to doing a level, (and is a good thing to be creative mate), I'd suggest thexe things may help. 1. Do a few designs for different ideas.... Top down explorer, shooter, rpg, side platformer etc.... but maybe just designing enemies or main player. Just random ideas of parts of the level. After you make a few different things, and idea will develop. for example.... you might come up with an idea at the back of your mind that keeps surfacing and you keep coming back to. Thats the idea to go with, as you'll have the drive to continue with it. 2. If your spontaneous, and create on the fly, place an entrance and an exit elsewhere and knock out a few ideas that get you frrom one side to the other.as you build different things, a recurring idea may develop...hgo with that. 3. Think of a genre or a game style that appeals to you . My best advice is to make that idea thats been recurring in your mind and you keep saying ,"I'll make that!". 4. Get a few friends to join you in a blank create level. Get a few ideas from them. Sorry if its not great advice
