Spoiler below is archived Contest outline, rules and other information.

Spoiler

For this competition we are looking for you to create a level to show what adventure Sackboy got up to after completing his parade in 'The Carnival'. Since Sackboy enjoyed his travels so much, he decided to revisit his previous adventurous locations, but where did he revisit?, and what new adventure did he get up to?

Whatever he done is entirely for you to decide.

Did he go back to 'Tinsel Town' to become an even bigger movie star? Or did he move back 'Down Under' to Australia to play with the kangaroos? Maybe hitting up the slopes again in 'Alpine Run'?

To keep this going with some sort of theme to stick with, but to also try not to narrow down creativity much, levels are to be based around any of the story mode themes.
That's, Down Under, The Orient, The Bazaar, Golden Sands, Alpine Run, Tinsel Town and The Carnival.

So, what are you waiting for? Get creating and have fun.

[- - -]

Please read all of the following information carefully as failure to follow said information may mean that you level is missed from the judging process.

Rules...

• This contest is open to ALL regions.
• This contest is for the PSP version of LittleBigPlanet. Please do not create and publish levels on the PS3 version of LittleBigPlanet for the purpose of entering this contest.
• Entries must be a brand new published level. No levels that are already, or previously been published will be accepted for entry. If you are found to have submitted an already or previously published level, the level in question will be immediately disqualified.
• Levels are to be based in someway on one of the story mode themes. That's, Down Under, The Orient, The Bazaar, Golden Sands, Alpine Run, Tinsel Town and The Carnival.
  • Whilst the levels are to be based on the story mode themes, the use of the pre-made templates are forbidden.
• Each player may only submit one level for the contest. Any further submissions will automatically be disqualified. Only your first entry will be accepted.
• Editing your level, for whatever reason, after publishing is allowed, as long as the submission deadline has not passed. Once the deadline has passed, no further editing is allowed

How to submit a level...

• To make your level eligible for entry you just simply have to reply to this thread, stating both the level name and the PSN ID that it is published under.
• Level names are to include the term WDSD somewhere in their title so that searching for entrants to the competition can be found easily.
  • e.g. Super Level! WDSD
  • Please do not include any other characters (brackets, underscores, periods, extra letters etc.) that join immediately with the WDSD term, as that will render the search for that term useless. So please make sure that there is a space between that term and the rest of your level title. You will not be disqualified for missing this term or incorrectly/not adding it to your level name, it's just there to make finding the entrants to this contest easier.
• Please remember that it is one level submission per person.

Submission deadline...

• The deadline for submissions is April 5th, 2010 at 09:00pm GMT. At that time I will post in this thread confirming that the submissions are now closed and all entries will be downloaded that same night.

Judging...

• All correctly submitted levels will be downloaded from the LBP servers as soon as possible after the deadline, no levels will be downloaded/played before this date.
• Judging will be based on a number of factors, namely originality. Stats, such as hearts and star ratings are not taken into effect. 
• I do not have a timescale as to how long the judging will take, but we aim to complete the judging as soon as possible after the deadline.
• We also will not be replying to posts asking if we have seen your level yet. If your level has been submitted correctly, it will be seen.
• And, as always, the judges decision is final.

If you have any further questions whatsoever regarding this contest, then please, do not hesitate to ask.

Happy creating

It's up to you

The reference to the original story mode is basically for the theming element. It doesn't have to start with a Magic Mouth stating that Sackboy has just finished the parade and this is what he done next (if that's what you meant).

[jackofcourse]

Sounds good. A really interesting theme too Will be good to see what people can do and how it compares to the story levels.

[SethisI]

Can we have a PSP level in which sackboy revisits the PS3 story places?

Sorry but no.

Since levels are to be created on the PSP, I thought it would be best to stick with the PSP story themes.

[Fastbro]

Can we use premade story characters?

Yes, the only limit on pre-made stuff is that the level templates can not be used.

However, please note that the levels will be judged on originality (among other things). So using a lot of pre-made objects may not be the best idea.

If you do use pre-made objects, I would advise you keep their use to a minimum.

[Fastbro]

Ok, thanks! I just planned on use a character to help the story!

[CANTFINDUSERNAME]

Cool!  Workin' on the level now!  And one more question.... How do the winners get the sticker?  Are they e-mailed with a code?  Ok thanks bye (time to work on the level)
