Hey guys! Right when I thought I wouldn't publish another level, I managed to squeeze enough inspiration out of my head to pump one out this week. Flip Man (a re-creation of a Japanese Toy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OZcA0HO4SM)) is a physics-based skill game where you swing a gymnast up into the air and attempt to stick the landing. This comes close to being my most challenging level as it requires a lot of patience and accuracy to do every flip. A tenth of a second could mean the difference between a perfect jump and a failure. https://lbp.me/v/qzt5ppg http://i3.lbp.me/img/bl/4d3274e2ecc0d8d5566d083caf348e9a21bc33bc.png After seeing competition in my previous levels for the #1 spot of the leaderboards, I decided to include a heavy scoring system for each jump. You get points for how long you stay airborne, the number of flips you perform, and how well you stick the landing. One thing I want to mention about this system is what the numbers actually mean on the scoreboard. Like many other levels, I could've simply given the player ten points for every good thing done, but then the numbers wouldn't have any value besides their size. Instead, I have point distribution set up as shown: - Every 0.1 second airborne: 1 point - Every flip: 100 points - Every 10% on a landing: 1000 points This way if you read the score 2310, you can see that the player was in the air for 1 second, did 3 flips, and got a 20 - 29% on the landing. I think that other LBP creators should try to incorporate this kind of scoring system into their mini-games as it adds more depth to the leaderboards. I hope you guys enjoy this level! Feel free to leave a review while you're there to let me know what you think! http://lbp.me/v/qzt5ppg Edit: Got a lot of good feedback on forums and twitter. Updated the visuals to an Olympic theme!

This is sounding great, I will definitely try to do as much flips and smooth landings as I can...at least one! ...omg! If I can't manage to do at least one flip then I will get deeply depressed!... ...stop!... I will believe in myself!... I can manage that!... I wish your level luck, many greetings, Jürgen^^
