Anyone know where I can find the SE that comes with the plushie/toy? I live in the middle east but none of the shops here seem to offer it.
I don't mind getting it from the UK though.

Yup, that Best Buy deal is happening just as i have points about to expire. So i'll use them to buy Tearaway I think. Good timing for things.

Also, for those who are stuck trying to find a few pieces of confetti in a particular chapter, here's a 100% collectible guide (Models, Red & Blue Presents, and Confetti) in German; the translator does a decent enough job if you can't read it. I was missing 3 confetti in The Caverns that I spent days looking for before finally using the guide to discover that they had clipped into a wall. It was immensely helpful.

It's totally beautiful. Is it an original song written for the game, and if so do you know who the composer is?


Anyway, I went back to this last night after playing a little when I first got it and then being distracted by a couple of other games. It's sooo charming. I constantly have to stop to take photos and videos because it's just a beautiful, charming, happy game. I've just got the ability to jump and have taken the gondola to Maypole Fields, I think it is.

You are still at the very beginning then. The levels get more and more creative as time goes on, and then they enter an entirely different realm of creative once you get to a certain point near the end.

It is an original song yeah. You will reach the section where it plays in a few hours from where you are.

The last areas of the game could perhaps be some of my favorite in gaming. They are so good.

Thank god for the patch. I was finally able to continue and finished it.

This was reworked way more than I thought it would be from the Vita version and it was very enjoyable. It was a great revisit for $40. It was the almost a sequel. More like 1.5 but very cool overall

I'd like to share my story with this game.

My wife was fighting a rare disease since 2012 and that damn disease came back in full force this year. I was really depressed so I had to find anything that could give me some strength. My friends & family helped me a lot, but everytime I was alone in home... it was terrible. So I decided to use my favourite hobby to help me: gaming.

I was interested in Tearaway since the initial release on Vita but since I don't have the system, I was glad to know that the game was coming to PS4. I couldn't spend all day on hospital with my wife due to work, so I thought the game would put a smile on my face - and it did. It was the first time that I could smile for real outside of the hospital. I had to be strong to properly support her.

Unfortunately she passed away this week. She was only 30, damn. We just bought an apartment... we had so many plans... I love her so, so much. I'm in pieces now.

I don't know what to do, or even how I'm writing this, but I just wanted to say that I decided to boot the game to try to forget eveything and the game put a smile on my face once again. So even if that effect lasted a couple of minutes, I was able to smile even during the worst period of my life. I'd like to thank everyone who worked hard on this game, because there's so much love on it. My wife would have loved this game. Thanks a lot, Media Molecule.

Wow. Thanks for sharing.

Video games can be incredibly powerfull. My wife suffered a severe aneurism a couple of years ago. For several months as she relearned to speak, to see, to move, to walk, I played final fantasy xiv. The game helped take my mind off of the pain and prepared me for another day in the hospital by her side.

My wife will never fully recover what she has lost, but we don't think about it as we spend evenings playing Tearaway. We all smile when a squirrel squeaks inside the controller and laugh at how silly our cutouts look as we pass them in the world.

Stay strong. In my experience, life gets a little bit better every day - and video games can help you forget about the hurt when it seems too much to handle.

Thanks for sharing. There's nothing much else I could say that the last two posters haven't already said. Plus given the magnitude of your loss, everything just seems trivial and cliche. But I'm glad you could see Tearaway's beauty despite such difficult times. When your feeling low or alone, remember your family and friends are always there to help, and that includes your GAF family.

Thanks to some of the above posters for sharing their experiences. I have much love and sorrow in my heart for you. Tearaway is a really special game indeed. It's my GOTY so far, and definitely an experience that can only be a video game. I'm grateful it brought you some comfort and cheer in your times of darkness.

Really sorry for your loss this is absolutely tragic. Ive emailed your post to the guys at media molecule, I hope you dont mind. Sales dont seem to be doing too hot and i think seeing how their game helped you through the worst moment anyone can have would be good.

I'm deeply sorry to hear of your loss. Have courage in this difficult time, and thank you for sharing this very personal story. As much as it is saddening, it is also touching. The simplest things in life can give joy, even amidst the greatest hardships. Latch on to those things, because they're the things that will see you through, on to brighter and better days.

Is any kind of guide out there for this game? The only thing I want to know is the name of the chapters. I want to know how long in the game I´m in and how long do I have left. Incredible game but the pace and the length are my downsides.

I did post a link to a german 100% guide earlier in the thread but that might not be exactly what you're looking for. At the very least you could look at it and make out (simply by how it's numbered) which chapter you are on and how many you have left. When I was going through parts of the game I definitely thought at times "cripes how long is this game???" but having finished everything and looking back on it, it wasn't obnoxiously long and given how much fun I had playing it, I kind of wish there was a little more left.

Thanks; I'll try that tonight. I had to make an emblem for a shield last night using just the DualShock 4 touchpad. Just too damn fiddly, and I ended up making a fairly crappy looking sword. I've got a 7" tablet which should be much better.

Agreed. There are some games out there that can instill a huge amount of positive emotion, or have a therapeutic role in difficult times. After just finishing the game, I can see how Tearaway could have that effect. Journey is another great game that I would recommend playing through to anyone who hasn't already. My friend told me a while ago that it helped his brother when he was trying to get through the loss of his infant child.

Picked this up. Nice to see it is quite different from the Vita version.

So I shared your story with Media Molecule and this is their reply.

"Hi Kevin,



Thank you for sharing this with us. We do try to keep on top of all the forums and social channels but sometimes it’s hard to keep track of everything so thank you for bringing this to our attention. What a touching message, I was incredibly moved upon reading this.



I will make sure to get in touch with him and pass on our love to him during this difficult time. It’s incredible to know that our games help people through some of their darkest hours, it’s not something you expect but so amazing to know we can help someone.



Thanks again Kevin, thank you for your kind words too! I hope you have a great day :)



Best wishes,



Jenny Lawrence

I too reached out via twitter, and got a similar response today:

Hope you're doing okay, GoDLiKe, and hope something good can rise from the situation.

So sorry for your loss. I'm glad you could find a moment of happiness among all that sadness and pain. The fact that you had the will to do something and enjoy it during this time says a lot about your character.

Godspeed.

I haven't played this yet (going to play it right after MGSV as a nice change of pace), nor the vita version. But from what I've heard while I was following this game, no. This version is basically the vita version + more content.

Of course, somebody who has played both would know better.

I picked this up tonight from the Best Buy sale. Most likely wont get around to playing it for a bit. But at that price, I thought I might as well support a cool looking 3D platformer like this.

It looks like LittleBig Planet 3 is cheaper now too. Tempted to grab that as well. Is there a chance that a GOTY version of that will come out at some point? Or just grab the regular version now?

This game might seriously have my favorite ending ever. Incredible.

I've always liked Media Molecule but this elevated them to one of my absolute favorite developers. This game is special. Its ability to put a smile on people's faces is almost unparalleled.

Started playing this yesterday, I'm at the
snow world (gibbet hill?)
I love the visual style and soundtrack, but otherwise it's not doing much for me yet. The gameplay is very basic and there's not much engaging me in the design. So far it feels like style over substance here. I'm surprised because it usually doesn't take much for me to fall in love with this type of game, but it's just the music and visuals that keep me going so far. I'll keep going, maybe I haven't hit the good stuff yet.

Played it on Vita, and the game is a goddamn masterpiece on its original platform. Definitely worth playing no matter what.

Anyone know how to get to the present hidden behind a button in The Lab?

It is the one where you put the X and Square buttons on two missing platforms. Then there is a third button to get to the present but I do not know how to aim this third button into the slot since it is facing out over a ledge.

Throw the button into the screen, then shoot it out onto the platform.
