Pixel Animation Demo 1/Clipper_US (aided by Modulos)
Using a full fledged LED screen, Modulos and I have created a method that is suitable for animation. The pic below only shows one frame...the full walk animation is in there. This is just the first test there will be more.

Welp, I uploaded a video of the Spirited Away - Always With Me level people were talking about. Play it before it gets nicked by itchy moderator fingers!
Level Name - Spirited Awey music
User Name - calvalryaki
Level name is missing some kanji/hiragana, so I posted what i could of it.

OK, made demo 2 a little faster than expected. Make sure you check this one out early on, because I don't think it will be around for very long for some strange reason...

16x16 screen this time. Can't quite get full animation at this resolution (only 3 frames, and a lot of cheating), but still looks impressive.

aww that really cool ill have to look 4 it

The lemmings one only took an hour or two (one to build the screen, a second to build the frames). Mario (technically Jumpman) took a few more, but that was because I was trying to work out how not to overheat the thermometer.
Now that I have the parts built, doing more of the smaller ones would take no time at all given a suitable sprite sheet. Only problem is that I can't seem to find anything good that is 150 pixels or smaller.
Please have a look at my first level "Santas little helper" (PSN: McSpooky)
"Santa Clause is hurt and needs sackboy's help to deliver all the presents and save Christmas. Enjoy the rewards when you deliver that present under the tree-But be careful not to burn your tush in the fireplace"
Man this level design stuff is not as easy as it looks
Thanks guys -lemme know what you think in this thread

Okay I published my protest level.
"LittleBigPlanet Alternate Ending: The Petition"
Try searching for "Alternate Ending:" and look in the US. It's easy to find because I have a picture of Patrick Swayze with a horse as the icon.
Play it, Heart it, Comment on it.
Ranger X said:
Hi Ranger, yes it's me! Thanks for the kind words, I thought about Good Griefing the fellow but I figure it's probably too late for it to have any sort of effect, I DID send an email to MM about it though. The funny thing is that shortly after this my original level was locked!
Gonna hafta give The Banana Horde a whirl next time I get on, looks very charming.
Wowbagger said:
I have indeed republished Platformer Pandemonium, I'll have to take a look at fixing that bug you mentioned, I tested that area extensively but because LPB is a physics based game it's hard to reproduce what everyone will experience!
Phreaker said:Really excellent level, loved it. I'm also happy to see PP back up.
Thanks

That's a spot-on No Face. Really creative idea for the typical music ride level too.

How do you get to the levels you hearted?
And boy, the search function does not work very well.
And boy, the search function does not work very well.
I've published my first proper level now.
Level name: Nightshift
Creator: steoc4
I need to work on explaining the first bit better, because noone ever gets it. But basically you're on a three floor hospital, each of the three floors is pretty much identical with a baby crawling from left to right, and a bottle of poison on the right and side. So you need to manage your time, going up and down the elevator and dragging babies back to the left before they reach the poison. You have about 90 seconds of this before your 'shift' ends and you can head out onto the street.
The rest of the level is fairly straight forward pure platforming, it's fairly challenging but it's all doable. I only really designed it for single player though, some parts are very difficult to negotiate with multiple players.
I'd appreciate any feedback so I can keep improving it

So now you have an idea of what I was asking about when I said I need way too many pistons, switches, etc. =P
akachan ningen said:
Not too long, actually. The longest part has been in creating the system to do the animation. Optimization has been the biggest problem we have run into. The two animation tests are taking between 75% and 100% thermometer. Actually creating the sprites takes 30 or so minutes, tops.
In related news ...
Marquee Demonstration / Modulos (in collaboration with Clipper_US)
Demonstration of LED scrolling text
North America
This is using many of the same principles that Clipper and I have created. It is an LED display that has marquee text scrolling across in different colors. This test is taking approximately 75% thermometer, however I have figured out a way to get it down to around 60% I believe. Just need to implement it when I get a spare chance. If you liked the sprite demos above, check out the Marquee and my other LED demo.
I'm working on a light themed level which will include some of these things you've seen so far, should be ready this week sometime.
Ranger X said:Ok I finally published my first level!
Don't forget to heart it you like it.
Played your level a bit before you officially announced it. It was fun and very colorful. I just started on my level (not published yet) called Metal and Ice. I also liked that you made your own clouds. I just find making your own stuff ALOT more satisfying.
Just a word of advice if you want more plays; move your levels towards North America. I just moved all of mine there and immediately began getting more plays. The "globe" usually starts there when you load the custom levels, so it's probably easier for people to find them. I'm still a long way from getting the "create" trophy though.
i liked how the floor lit up under you. is that explained anywhere?ckeur said:So now you have an idea of what I was asking about when I said I need way too many pistons, switches, etc. =P

Haha, yea I just threw that in there. That is part of my light themed level that should be up in the next week or two. Like Clipper said, its just glass with tiny spotlights in it. A lot of sensor switches with a very small radius hooked up to each light.
I love how the light up floor gets more attention than the marquee =P

Thanks for the mention. Was on the road this weekend and finished and published Starstruck 2! at a friends. Didn't have the means to get any youtube up but will try sometime this week. I included three Ace prizes in my level - an emitter bar that slowly rains down leaves and flowers in the front and back thin planes, an emitter bar that does the same with yellow lighted stars and a contraption I built to capture and swing players from lower to higher levels or vice versa. I hate getting my inventory stacked up with user items I'll never use so I made them Ace prizes to respect anyone else that feels this way. If they sound like something anyone would use or want, a couple of play throughs should get you an ace. If you can't ace it, get the high score and send me message and I'll gladly send it your way. An interesting note, there are parts of this level where all the jazz drums are generated by the environment and the player movement - not by the in game soundtrack. There are a couple of score tricks that involve learning a few fast jumps and quick timing that should put top scores in the 40-50k region and when done correctly play out a fun little chain of events. So far I've only seen scores around 15-20k.
On another note MiamiWesker is right on the button with the other levels mentioned ,I recommend them to all.
P.S. - did Wurm get banned again?

Finally started making a level. Will work hard on it and throw it up in this thread. Harry Potter fans should enjoy it a lot.

Thanks for the tips MiamiWesker. I have had a fun filled evening playing through the SirenRose and am now going back into the Jaeyden levels. And they are all amazing. Jaeyden, I love how your levels manage to create lots of different looks. Really incredible stuff so far. Thank-you

Pane in the GLASS! / BadJrv
Camouflage. It is unlike anything else you have seen so far on LBP. Please comment and heart it if you like it. If enough interest is shown I will make another one. The level is short as I was testing the concept and want to see how the community reacts. Good Luck! 

I really want to try to use the enemy 'approach' AI to make some interesting stuff. First of all I'm hoping to make a level that's kind of like an escort mission (something like the Cave level in the Wedding set), but what I really want to do is make a cannon object that's capable of aiming at Sackboys by being attached somehow to at least one attracted enemy.

Soccer Time / BleedPSN
- Competitive multiplayer soccer. Each team needs to score 5 points.
- USA east coast
Is amazing how few people played this level(and my other levels). Then I tried to look for it through the Cool Levels menu.... a crapton of pages after I was sick of searching -_-
They really need to fix how the levels are arranged and displayed, its nearly impossible to get visibility right now, unless your level is called "little big FamousName"
