A little bit ago on Planetarium, Giftfrosch had an open forum discussion asking for the community to give him questions to ask the LBP team at Gamescom. Upon his return, Giftfrosch has delivered!
General
Giftfrosch: Are Rare Prize Crowns still given out for Fan-Art?
StevenI: Rare Prize Crowns are very rarely given out for fanart anymore.
We receive LOTS of fanart, so we would have to receive something quite incredible to stand out from the rest!
Vex_Doppel’s handcrafted Rare Prize Crown is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of an absolutely amazing creation made outside of the LittleBigPlanet game that was instantly deserving of the Rare Prize Crown itself.
Rare Prize Crowns are much more likely to be awarded for quality and consistent contributions to the LittleBigPlanet community as a whole these days.
LittleSigPlanet, the Weekly Planetarium, PocketMoonPodcast and the LBPC Community Spotlight Crew are some of the recent recipients of the award and I’m sure that we’ll be awarding further Rare Prize Crowns to other awesome LittleBigPlanet groups and individuals in future.
LittleBigPlanet Vita
Giftfrosch: Will there be a Paint-Tool in LBPV?
Simon (Syroc): A Paint-Tool in LBPV would definitely make sense because of the great Vita Touchscreen!
Giftfrosch: Will there be a Demo-Version of LBPV?
Simon (Syroc): I really don’t know but I hope that there will be one! Isn’t there a Demo Version for nearly all Vita Games? We will see.
Giftfrosch: Will there be any of the newer DLC materials such as Attract-O-Gel?
Simon (Syroc): Sure! There will be new DLC Packs for LBPV.
Giftfrosch: Will there be an LBPV bundle released? Anything similar to a collector’s edition?
Simon (Syroc): I haven’t heard about any special collector’s edition but as announced you will have the chance to get these LBP preorder costumes.
And it could be that there will be a “Game Of The Year” edition related to if LBPV will be the game of the year.
Giftfrosch: Okay, thanks for answering the Community Questions! It was nice to meet you!
Simon (Syroc): No Problem, I can’t wait to see how awesome things the Community will create in LittleBigPlanet Vita!
Tearaway
Giftfrosch: Will there be a multiplayer- or/and create-mode?
Spaff: Multiplayer – no, Create? Not exactly no, there is no level editor. However Tearaway is an extension of creative gaming filled with creative challenges and ways to personalise the world around you! We’ll talk more about that in coming months.
Giftfrosch: Is Tearaway going to be retail or downloadable title?
Spaff: Both!
Giftfrosch: Will we see a lot more papercraft print-outs available on MM’s site in the future?
Spaff: Oooh i certainly hope so
Cross-Controller DLC
Giftfrosch: Will the Cross-Controller DLC include the memoriser tool?
StevenI: No, the LittleBigPlanet Cross-Controller DLC will not contain the Memoriser Tool.
Although it will have some surprises that will definitely appeal to the whole community, even if they do not own a PS Vita.
