nostalgia
‘couple of people asked in the comments if all guildford-game-dev offices are the same cubicle-free, bland white-walls-and-blue-carpet setup… well, it certainly seems that way 
but when we first started MM, we were working out of 3 small rooms. we decided to paint them pink, yellow, and blue to try to take the edge off the otherwise boring environment. the pink room used to be our board room (now kitchen :)), the blue room the main dev office (now a chill out area, seen here), and the yellow room was sort of overflow (now, QA). You can see how it looked back in february, with piles of recently delivered, as yet un-unboxed devkits filling most of the room. Eventually we acquired a larger, more ‘boring’ space next door - which is what you see in the timelapse video.
Woo, colour-coded offices. Sounds like a great idea to me.
Thanks for the inside view. I was wondering where the colourful walls had gone

Its always funny to know that even something big as MM is just a small office :p
How the hell do you start something like that…
its maybe like:” hey lets make a game…, get 4 rooms :D”
Guys keep up the good work …
I hope there is a demo soon, but it’s always better to have a working game without lots of bugs…
“Wall of love” :3 A development team sure needs one such indeed. =D Well, that and cardboard boxes… just to feel at home. XD
cool
I’m suprised that you didnt show ous a wall with a life size picture of a Sackboy _O-
Is that a coffee mug placed on top of a dev kit box marked “Fragile - handle with care”?
How can you afford that big an office with so many employees? (You will surely earn everything back when the game is released)
Og, btw, I want LBP to be bundled with a white PS3 in Europe! or maybe sackboy skin…
Where is the next blog update?
i want some news 
Don’t you get it!? JD GW and the patriots have seized control of MM. Sackboy is planning an insurrection. Will you TERMINATE Sackboy?! NANOMACHINES! AI! BROTHER!
Dear god. I hope LBP isn’t this complicated.
That would be amazing… A massive graphic picture of sackboi where u could stick post- its and notes. I mean im sure ur spending most time on making the game but that would be pretty cool
We had the same problem in our office. Even more so actually because we don’t own them, or have permission to paint them. So we went nuts with some vinyl!

Looks ace! Makes me want to buy a house of my own so that I can do crazy things to it!
i want a demo soo bad! even if there isn’t much to it! the game just keeps growing and getting better and better with so much stuff.
omg omg omg…
i bought some games… just to let the time to the moment lbp is released… i hope it will make 2008…
spot the gigantic SONY TOOL!!!
the PS2 dev box was called TOOL!!! always thought that was pretty funny, having a device scream tool to u.
Q U E S T I O N T I M E:
Ok, so we know that we’ll be able to create private levels and give out keys to specific people, so they can access the level. But will they also be able to edit the level and upload it again? I’m a member of the British community ‘Old Age Playstationers’ (oaps.org), and it would be cool if we could make an OAP level and have every OAP member create stuff in it.
Red, blue and Orange…so good!!!
I’m wait for the next blog’s update XD
you could update the blog… you didn`t` do that in a while
you are doing a very good job guys, a really good job. I am really looking foward to the game.
I have a question, how can i get into this world? i mea, what studies i need to get into the videogames company?
what did you study to work as a game designer?
I would like to know it because i would love to be a game designer, i am a boy from 17 which have to choose what to study in the next years.
answer as soon as posibble please,answer either on my e-mail or on the blog.
thank you very much

@seipey:
well dude…
that hard… depends on wich country you live.
For example: i am from belgium, my passion and hobby’s are programming… but i will never go to school for that… because, in belgium there is no future for it. No game design future :’(…
i would love to program for a company, develope games/programs… but i simply can’t.
If you live in a country like England
well then, go study something wiht alot of C, C++, java, database stuff, and where you can get at the same time soms digital art 
hehe
good luck on finding some
ps: teach me if you can :p hehe
btw: MM keep up the good work AND THE BLOGS

one of the many waiting-for-an-update-fans
what?
why removed the blog about the competition
To ameba20
leave them alone cant you see that they are to bizzy with production of the game so calm down they can do it when they have the time as for all the team at Media Molecule keep up the fantastic work.
p.s sorry for any badly spelled words im dislexic :p
Well guys it’s nice to see LBP progressing well (E3 trailers)
Also I can see you guys don’t operate a clear desk policy
@ Seipey - C/C++ is a great start in programming for gaming, Java has its similarities to these but Java tends to be used mostly for application development (web apps etc) but its also used for Mobile phone apps/games. (I work as an App Analyst (Java/J2EE))
*cough*demo/open beta*cough*
Let me know when you announce the SackBoy plushie with the collectors edition and I will be all over that like a fly on sh- sugar
