I used to play it quite a bit, although creating a level I would be happy with seemed way too time consuming.  Are your levels fun or just hard?

[Richter]

Dimo, you made me realize I don't play video games much anymore.  I'm either on the internet, or working on things.

Weird.

This is apple talkpeedy, after all. 

I fixed it for you.

You ever play any old Megaman games? They're that kind of hard/fun. The stuff that's difficult at first becomes way easier the second time around (if you're not a complete dope) and the rest usually just looks difficult, but if you're observant you will find a very easy way to proceed. Not to pat myself on the back, but they look pretty sharp, too.

But to answer your question more accurately, I think they're fun, but of course I would.

I did put quite a bit of work into the later ones, so I was lucky in that sense to have been able to put the time in.

What's your handle so I can add you and check out your levels?

Dimo1138 (surprised?)

Check out the ones with "X" in their names, they're newer and better.

I have become a LBP addict.



One question: In the intro, when your walking away and the guys is explaining the game...there are rainbows in the background. Well I actually got flipped by one and landed down below. Looked around and I only found one piece of something, almost looked like a hammer looking object. (not a sticker or points or anything).
Any ideas on this? I have yet to be able to duplicate the fall.

There is a hammer object you can unlock somewhere in the story levels, but fucked if I know exactly where it is. As far as your experience in the tutorial level, I think you simply broke the level and got somewhere they didn't intend you to go, further proof that the developers of the game use the same tools as the users (and can make the same mistakes).

More importantly, what's your PSN? We can get jiggy wit' it.

And more important than that:
PLAY MAH LEVELS!!

Will look into it later tonight.

Richter, games are good for the head. Not only for fun. Unique problems call for creative problem solving skills, and you can exercise that with many, if not all, games. All work and no play makes Richter a grey face. GO PLAY!

For some reason, this makes me think of the thread about people who justify their drug use with claims of "mind expansion".

I would claim I only play for fun, but then I remembered my chessmaster game isn't actually fun at all (its an evil, nefarious AI that would kill all of us given half a chance) and I play Civ III half for fun, and half for novel geopolitical situations for story writing purposes.

There are some games that are just dumb fun, but there are the ones that are really good thinking/strategy exercises.

[Captain Utopia]

Your levels were good, and it turns out that I played one of them already (back in Jan 09)!  In terms of design/aesthetics/creativity, they are among some of the best levels I've played.  In terms of difficulty though, I suck.

I personally prefer to play simple/fun levels like the ones I published, which are also dumb and ugly.

Agreed.  Pentago and Bannanagrams are my two favorites, currently.  Also I've been getting craftier recently.  Bone, brass, and steel have more readily come to hand than a controler.
