My first level was a bit abstract - and just platforming with some basic puzzle solving. Funny thing is - the biggest "complaint" I get is that the level is too long? Funny cause, my complaint is often that levels are too short or basic.

Unfortunately, this level looks to be just as long - I can't help it, I start out simple and it keeps growing.

I need to take a page from toefer's book and draw out the level. I actually tried with this level, but certain things didn't work out - or an addition would totally glitch EVERYTHING - and I'd have to change it, which changed everything - before I knew it, I was waaaaay off from my original intent.

Oh well, I think I'm stuck "creating as I go".

Right now, I'm kind of stuck creatively - I want to create characters but they all look like complete cr@p - not sure what I'll do to get past that.

The easiest way is to take a character already made, then just attach a front do it...

I just used the Monster Truck as a generality - however, my main point was that we (the LBP community) need to spend time creating new vehicles when we can so we don't end up with "too much of the same".

It's not bad now, but it could be if we don't start being more creative with our transportation.

Vehicles and characters are just incredibly time consuming.

What do you mean, "attach a front"?

When I dismantled the Monster Truck, it was set up the same as any other vechile, except the front which is small plane... Not a block. So you should be able to just attach a small front to anything to make it look how you want..

Sneak peak at next Thursday's costumes with the Chimera and Roast Chicken.

[BruceWayne]

The Chimera and the chicken look great. Still probably wouldn't pay for them, but not bad.

Are you sure that isn't supposed to be a "Turkey" - for Thanksgiving?

[Shin-Ra]

Quite likely, didn't occur to me.

That's what I was thinking. Would make a little too much sense.

It looks like based on these last two weeks, the free costumes are turning into things you can put on your head, and the premium costumes you pay for actually include new skins etc. Last week's free costume was a bit more than just 1 new piece, but that was probably because it was the winner of the contest they held.

Well, it would be quite random for MM to have a chicken on Sackboy's head.

I figured this was our holiday themed costume, much like the Halloween addition. I'm hoping for a cool Santa Claus Sackboy in December. Guess we'll see.

[AikonEnt]

Thanksgiving doesn't exist in the UK so it could be either. But it is recognised in the US so probably is a turkey (or is a chicken and it's just a coincidence that it's thanksgiving also).

I can see it now.

$2.99 costume = Santa Claus & Mrs. Claus bundle

Free costume = a Rudolph nose to put on your sackboy, maybe antlers too if they're feeling the Christmas spirit

Antlers can be won in the game - so yeah, all they need is the red glowing nose.

You've probably hit the nail on the head.
$2.99 costume = Santa Claus & Mrs. Claus bundle (I would add an elf costume)
Free - Red glowing nose

Good guess I think.

Btw, is there a way to see who has hearted your level (if they are not on your friends list)?

This has been mentioned on a few sites, but I thought I'd post it here.

Capcom put out a press release regarding the release of the SSFIITHD release next week, and toward toward the end of the statement said this:

You can't use the word little, let alone put it in quotes, without making people think it's LBP related.

This could, of course, just be referring to the characters that will be available for Pain, but I'd rather see a Ryu sackboy.

I guess this will have to do for now:

or at least until it gets taken down.

Awesome.

I just created another level, though this one is the best ever.

It is called Share Trophy Help! Check it out, best level ever, and do what the description says!

[netguy503]

From the picture above it looks like the turkey head is free (its next to the other free item- tv head guy) so I assume the Chimera head you have to buy. Is that the whole outfit...just a head? Could this be released in a pack? What other characters in that game could people want to see "sack-ified"? or could this be a motorstorm costume where they charge you 3 dollars for one costume because its a "premium"?

[Shin-Ra]

You can't see the rest of the Chimera/R2 costume properly but it looks like the Sackboy may be wearing a beige uniform.
