Holy Sequels! It’s LittleBigPlanet 2!
2010May 10th
Hello :)
Everyone here at Mm Towers is incredibly excited and proud to officially unveil our new game, sequel to our beloved and award winning LittleBigPlanet - it’s LittleBigPlanet 2!

Building Mm and creating/releasing LBP1 has been quite an adventure for the Molecule. There have been many ups, and some downs, but one thing has really kept us going and that’s our community. Since the unveiling of LBP1 at GDC in 2007 we have felt the support of an amazing, talented group of people. This same group of people is responsible for the 2.3 million levels that now exist in the LBP universe - and so the experiment/collaboration continues with LBP2 :)
The team here at Mm is working really hard to get some very exciting new features out to you all. We truly can’t wait to see what you, the talented guys/gals of the extended LBP team, will do with this stuff. Head on over to LittleBigPlanet.com where all the juicy information is!
Once you’ve seen everything, why not join some conversations about LBP2, either below, on twitter, or on the official LittleBigPlanet Forums. And don’t forget you can send us an email over here, the team would love to hear from you.
Lots of love,
Siobhan

You might have seen our tweet about it but LittleBigPlanet Central have made a trailer for thier upcoming collaborative level building project, entitled: LBPC: The Game.

We’re looking forward to this already!
Exciting stuff! And not just because there is a Killer Otter in the video!

LittleBigPlanet.com relaunches as a community site!
2009November 18th
Back in April, a fansite orbiting the LittleBigPlanet unexpectedly crashed into the planet’s surface, and the team that ran it were hired by Mm. That was Tom (me) and Spaff, your community managers at here at Mm Towers.
Since starting the job, there has been one project occupying a great deal of our time, especially in recent months; To build a much needed LittleBigPlanet Community site.
Today it launches: A one-stop place to get all your LittleBigPlanet news, latest community updates, full details on all the latest downloadable add-on content for the game, details on everything from the trophies, game patches, a help and FAQ section, videos, screenshots, and a Mermahuataur.
Of course, this week also marks the Launch of Cambridge Studio’s LittleBigPlanet on the PSP, and the site supports our new friend too – with full information and details about the brand new LittleBigPlanet PSP, including playing, creating and sharing on the go. Everything LittleBigPlanet!
So we’re all really pleased to bring you the new www.littlebigplanet.com: A mountain of in-game assets combined with over 25,000 of Spaff’s beautifully handcrafted words (translated by Sony’s localisation teams in to 11 languages no less) all bundled together with some peeper shattering visual spazzle-dazzle.
It’s the first part of a bigger plan for LittleBigPlanet’s presence on the web, a board from which to build on, and you can be sure that there will be much, much more to come in the future, as LittleBigPlanet continues to evolve its community through the web, and through the games themselves.
Huzzah!
Learn about Logic, take a tour of LogicTech!
2009November 13th
Out today is a nifty set of fan made levels created by some of the Curators at LittleBigPlanet Central: The Logic Pack, a set of levels containing logic gates and tools aimed at bridging the gap between Creators who understand logic and those who don’t. Such as me for example.

I asked ConfusedCartman, one of the minds behind this excellent teaching tool, what this was all about…
“Our goal with this pack is to demonstrate what’s possible with logic, through interactive demonstrations and the actual levels themselves, so that Creators of all skill sets can learn how to utilize logic in their own levels”
“At LBPCentral at least, we’ve witnessed a divide in the quality of levels which seems to be based on the use of logic. Creators who understand it, and use it well, generally have higher-quality levels than those who don’t, and currently there’s no easy way to learn about logic and get started with it on your own.”
“If you don’t have a friend who’s good with logic and is willing to teach you how it works, you’re pretty much stuck. But now, there’s an option for those Creators, a way for them to discover how useful logic in LittleBigPlanet actually is.”

In the LBPC Logic pack you’ll take a trip to LogicTech, and it is here that you’ll learn easy, intermediate and advanced logic techniques, and gain access to a vault of pre-made logic switches. It might sound a tad complicated, but the team have put in a lot of work to make sure even the most complicated ideas are accessible to all. It’s definitely worth checking out.
To find and play the LBPC Logic Pack, Search for “LBPC Logic” alternatively, find the author @LogicPack via the search.
If you head over to LBPCentral, you will also find some accompanying guides to more advanced techniques, featuring hundreds of screengrabs and levels to copy to your Moon to play with and pick apart!
The Logic Pack was made over five long months by mrsupercomputer, comphermc,
CuzFeeshe, rtm223, and ConfusedCartman, all of whom shall now be crowned for their impressive and helpful work! Good work guys!
LogicTech: Tours coming soon

Another one year anniversary to celebrate, oh my! It’s been a whole year since the first episode of the LittleBigPodcast, and to celebrate their 40th epicsode, Austin and Daniel invited Tom and Me (Spaff) to be guests on their show, and answer all kinds of pretty silly questions about cheese, films, and the LittleBigPlanet Community.
Happy Birthday guys, keep up the good work!
