I don't think this level is complete enough to deserve being posted in the Community Levels Thread, but I would like some feedback so I thought I would post it here;
Deep Sea Exploration
http://lbp.me/v/xt6cxb
This level is a collection of several different ideas I had but couldn't do because it either overheated the thermometer or was just too ambitous for me to be able to finish. The thermometer is actually full on this level too, not that it really shows. vIt is very rough around the edges, and was published mainly so that people can test out the vehicles and give feedback.
Essentially you control either a submarine or a giant jellyfish and navigate it through a cave. I've only really been focusing on the sub and the jelly so far, plus making a few creatures and enemies, but they don't quite act the way I hoped. The actual level is a placeholder; I literally just chucked a bunch of creatures in the water, so it isn't very challenging at the moment.
Unfortunately the jellyfish's tentacles tend to break pretty easily, but I think the movement of it in general is pretty good.
Anyway, it would be good if you could try it out. I've somehow spent well over 24 hours in create mode on stuff related to this level, but I guess alot of it was experimenting and tweaking (plus alot of mucking around).

^ That looks sexy. I'll check it out later on tonight. =)
Haha, quick eye there! But yeah, it's finally done thank god.
The Fist of Craft Earth
http://lbp.me/v/xt6jj6
Some of you might have seen this level before from the beta, but it's been brought back to life in full form! If you've ever played a God of War/Dynasty Warriors/Devil May Cry type game before, hopefully you'll feel right at home with this level.
The goal was to see if I could bring that same level of action to LBP2 and here's to hoping I've reached a little bit of that same magic as those action games bring to the players out there.
- It has sharks, zombies, dinosaurs, and even a gigantic metal octopus!
- Pull off insane combos and see if you can reach 99 hits!
- Nutty special attacks and full screen supers!
- Beast Grip action similar to Devil May Cry 4's devil bringer
- Regenerative health
The youtube is still uploading, so I'll post when it's done. Hope you guys like it!

Just wanted to say the level is great, I think I played it three or four times already. You really nailed the controls, I love em!donkey show said:
My first time playing the final door before the level link didn't open all the way and I had tough time getting through. Never happened again though.

Queued Fist of Craft Earth. Can't wait to play it after work tomorrow!
And yes, Poultry Panic was amazing! While not particularly challenging, it was still an extremely satisfying experience. The storytelling was top notch.

Besides, it saves memory to make as much stuff as possible glued to dark matter. Because this way the game doesn't treat it as a "lose object".
I had a feeling, but I was hoping maybe there was a trick I was missing.

Thanks man, glad you liked it! I was pretty worried about the controls considering I've tested it for so long, I might have missed out on what other people might have had issues with. Luckily, it's been okay so far after other people checked it out before publishing.SolidEyeSystem said:
Also, that door thing happens to me, too. The logic suggests it shouldn't do that at all, but I dunno. At least it isn't a persistent thing for now.
And another +1 for Poultry Panic. It's a very cute platformer that even had shades of SMG at one point. ^^

Thats fucking amazing...
Is it possible to add randon boosts on tracks, and car upgrades (tires, engine, etc) like Super off-road does?
hitlerat said:
Theoretically, I don't see why not. I wonder how much thermo that uses, because ideally if you're trying to match up to Super Off-Road you want persistent stats between tracks, which I think would require everything to take place in the same level.
Hmmm. Or, you could do some funky encoding of stats in the score. That'd be interesting. At the end of level, the units are your nitro count, the tens are your engine bonusses, the hundreds are your steering bonusses, the thousands are your wins, ten thousands are second places, hundred thousands are third places...
When you get to the 'podium' level, or whatnot, your placings are converted into actual 'real' score.

You can post your stuff in the community levels thread as it is, afterall, the place we are supposed to do so.

K, bear with me as I say, I am totally new at this.donkey show said:
I've done the above, and as soon as I unpause the winch goes off. What I want is for it to stay still, winch up when grabbed, but return to it's start if it's accidentally dropped. I'm sure I've seen it done in levels.

If you've hooked up the grab switch to the winch, this shouldn't happen. Is there a wire coming out of the grab switch to the winch?DodgerSan said:

^ I think that's the only thing really. Perhaps you set one of the options to reverse?
Weird. That's never happened to me before both local and online. Again, the logic in there dictates that none of those things should happen, but who knows. There's been some strange wonkyness that rarely occurs in the level at times, but that dealt specifically with the gates. I'll see what's up when I get back home from work, but that's honestly the first time that's been brought up. Hopefully reloading will alleviate the issues, but if it doesn't, major apologies.Thrakier said:

Ok, this winch is killing me.
All I have is a block of dark matter, a sponge ball, and a winch connecting them (max 60, min 5, time 6 sec).
A grab sensor on the sponge, connected to the winch.
Set to on/off works fine, I can ride up and down.
Set to forward/back, the winch immediately winds up to minimum length and sits there. Grab sensor does nothing at this point.
Halp?
EDIT: GOT IT!
With the winch set to forward/backwards, I had to set the grab switch to invert output: yes. Now it works as I originally wanted
Thanks for the help Donkey.

Glad you figured it out. Alternatively you can go into the winch settings and above where you choose on/off and directional is a setting where you can pick "reverse" which will do the exact same thing without inverting the grab switch.DodgerSan said:Ok, this winch is killing me.

Ohh, very nice voice work (best so far in LBP2), great gameplay mechanic, I love the fact that some strategy is needed, although it takes some time to figure out what works and what doesn't. How long did it take you to create it?

Thanks man! Time wise, that's a little hard to say. I'd guess 2 1/2 weeks of 3 hours a day give or take, with the weekends being like 6 hours day.Stampy said:

You can get a secret pin today by placing the rose from the Valentines DLC on another player. Guests work too, if anyone cares about that sort of thing.

Should then be able to use a timer set to forwards/backwards ...
