LEVEL LINK

Hey folks! It's been a while since I post anything up, but I've recently been working on this level, had it just sitting on my moon so here it is! A 1-4 player mini game!

How bout it, another farm level, except this one is mine. Come on ova, get a tractor and start the apple frenzy alone or with friends! Special thanks to my dudes @DoktorVintij & @x_kitty_luna_x for all the help provided and mad testing.

Good luck OMGYOUWOULD

The level was enjoyable. It looked good and it had some nice music choices. I had fun with my sister she enjoyed it a lot she laughed every time that we squished a chicken. It's a fun level but there were a lot of things that bothered me knowing the quality you're capable of delivering.
I feel like I've seen this menu a million times. It's the same or too similar to your previous levels. Maybe you changed some fonts or some parts of the layout but it doesn't feel like anything new.
With the menu there's the lighting. When you go into night time you still can see the sunlight rays and it makes it look weird, I know your were going for that lumina FX but for a level like this I really don't think it fits. I liked the little lanterns that light up. It was a nice touch and it looked great.

The gameplay was ok. It was really a revamp of your old levels, again nothing new. The score system feels unbalanced too; You get 10 points for regular apples then you grab one of the special ones and you get 800 points, but if you kill a chicken you loose 500 points? I could kill all the chickens to the point of damaging the emitters (I'm exaggerating this isn't really possible) and still have a ton of points left. Different from your past levels that you actually have fun and had a decent level of difficulty for those racing for a high-score.
I loved the HUD at the bottom of the screen. It gave the level a nice touch and the layout was wonderful. And the power ups where a cool touch and added some spice to the level but I just remember speeding up a bit? You could have had a few more to make it more fun.
The controls also felt really choppy. That could easily be fixed with some tweaking speed settings with some timers to make turning more smooth and what not. The controller layout was nice and they where easy to understand.

Now what bothered me most was the theme of the level. There's more farms in LittleBigPlanet that there will ever exist in the universe and such a good concept is opaqued by the theme. Farm levels are easily picked and I feel if the theme isn't a joke? You're just looking for an easy pick.

Anywho, Overall it's a fun level that looks good. I'm curious what you're going to do next, I hope you step out of monotony of the menu/mini-game thing and you come up with some cool new ideas for let's say LBP3.
Good Job.
