‘Turbo! Pack’ Development Diary 9: ‘Tanks a Lot’
– Sam Dickinson, Designer
The Bridge Builder was a tricky proposition, because it had to be able to move around easily, but also create a bridge that the tank could cross (and the tank is a pretty weighty engine of destruction). Also, the gaps had to be big enough that the tank couldn’t just roll across them, and so the actual bridge emitting bit was getting a bit big and unwieldy. So we made bridge sections that cleverly expanded immediately after emitting. Not only is it useful, but it looks cool too!

LittleBigPlanet Central’s Creator Spotlight: Jackofcourse
LittleBigPlanet Central have recently re-started their Creator Spotlight series, a series of interviews with some of the most loved creators around. The last in the series was with Morgana25, creator of a whole load of jolly good levels, and this time round it’s the turn of Jackofcourse – joint winner of the Creator of the Year 2009, and all round good chap.
These interviews are a great chance to take a little peak inside the mind of a star creator, allowing us to see what makes their brain work the way it does, so let’s dive on into the brain of Jackofcourse.
