Here is my entry for lbpc12 the flipside. The theme is opposites and while a lot of the decor fits the theme the real opposite theme can be found in the gameplay itself. You see, there are point bubbles but you are supposed to avoid them instead of collect them. You start with 100,000 points but collecting a single bubble deducts from your score. You will get additional points at checkpoints and at the end as well. Just so you know this level isnt designed to speed through. It is very challenging and you can easily find yourself with zero points. Good luck. Also a big thanks to all my beta testers and to O165-vivaldi_NL for the epic music. http://lbp.me/v/qrjhc5k

I had to delete and republish due to scoring glitch. Had to make some changes to fix it including adding the race gates. New link http://lbp.me/v/qrjhc5k

I gave this a go yesterday, woo! I was initially really happy to hear you had used this concept, I've daydreamed about this myself and seeing someone create it so that I won't have to was nice The level's pretty fun! It flows well and there are no sharp corners. HOWEVER I felt that the concept could've been used way more then you did! The idea is that point bubbles = bad. In your level the penality for aquiring bubbles are a bunch of minus points, which is fine. But if one is not a scorehunter then you're basically dead in the water. I would've loved some sort of explanation as to why scorebubbles are bad. Einstein in all honor but that's not very compelling What if each bubble was a living breathing creature, and in the end you'd go to court and have a judge made up of bubbles condemn you to x years of prison depending on how you did? I feel that you lost some potentially fantastic humour there. Because murdering a bubble who have just discovered the joy of..uh..painting stuff would have been hilarious I would've loved to see he player do more ridiculous stuff just to avoid a bubble also. Like you could choose to go through an elaborate gameplay section with ten potential bubbles..VS jumping through a bubble wall and skipping said section. Or maybe just walking a long ridiculous distance just to skip a bubble. A very big issue with the level would be how the score can easily be "maxed out". Simply do not get any bubbles and you'll have the top score, and that's that. Not taking a single bubble dosen't even seem that hard, considering I nearly succeeded on my first try. I would suggest adding a race element to the level in order to seperate slowpokes from speedrunners. Overall a fun and polished level that could have been a lot more. EDIT: You did the race thing! Excellent!

Thanks dude. Yes I did add a race but I also had to delete and republish it. Keep in mind that an elaborate story would not work well with the competition. The rules clearly state to try and avoid a lot of speech and story, otherwise I would have done something like that.

Amazing idea not to die, but to be punished when collecting point bubbles. This concept brings an interesting kind of gameplay. Great level!

Hi shookie, has there been some magnetism in your bubbles? I felt like in an Mario Kart game getting attracted by and slipping on the only banana peel in the whole desert...permanently! But I had to laugh a lot and the gameplay of your level is absolute fantastic! Great entertainment and great fun! Thanks a lot for sharing this and many greetings, Jürgen^^

I have locked this level for many reasons. At some point I may unlock it or delete it. I designed this as a level to be played by the people in the play competition and it wasnt meant really for any other purpose other than people wanting a high score challenge. Also I dont think I like getting an mm pick because I won.

We respect your choices, shookie! It was an awesome level and it deserves any recognition it can get! Though I completely understand where you are coming from! -hyper
