This article has a talk page!This is a sub-page of Prerelease:LittleBigPlanet (PlayStation 3).
These builds were presumably before the first showing at GDC 2007. The footage from these builds mostly comes from trailers or early gameplay shown far after release.
- The Sackboy model in these builds looks more like the one in the final game, but still retains the bobbly head.
- Each of these builds takes place in a background that looks like cardboard hills. Probably due to lack of better textures.
- It is unknown if there are any other backgrounds in these builds.
- The level begins with a large sign saying "Start!" pointing down, with a wire behind it leading to who knows where. Interestingly, this sign was intended for the Las Vagueness theme as said by its file name in the Deploy Build.
- Almost everything in these builds looks as if it could be a model and not made out of materials, but this is unknown.
- The debug / level select screen is a pink screen with a sackboy in the corner. It is only seen in these builds and the files for it are not in the final game.
- It is also likely that this was LittleBigWorld, a working name for the game when Sackboy was created.
- It's interesting to note that some elements of this build are still in the game.
Gamecity 3 Sackboy Creation Demo#
A video shown off later at Gamecity 3, detailing the creation of the new Sackboy model. The level itself is the same as the following build.
- You can see some buttons on a screen to the right, which could possibly be the LittleBigPlanet level editor.
LittleBigPlanet Community Meet#
A build shown off at a LittleBigPlanet Community meet in 2011.
- The level starts out with a robotic creature named "BBQ Bot" in the files of the Deploy Build coming down and saying "Work together to finish the level. The player with the most sponge wins!".
- The level ends with a metal robot type monster which is seen in a lot of concept art. He plays an animation and says:
"WHAT'S THIS? Pesky little pip squeaks. I hope you aren't thinking of interfering with my plans.......... I'll be keeping my eye on you."
- The boss appears to be walking forward towards the end, but in the video the audience apparently finds grabbing a key more interesting, so what he did is unknown.
"New LittleBigPlanet Footage"#
Video taken from GameTrailers. Dated April 2007. There isn't much to see.
- There are more than 4 sack people bobbing their heads around. It's likely that they are just bots for stress testing.
Media Molecule 10th anniversary livestream#
Video taken from Media Molecule. Milestone builds are shown multiple times during this.
- Firstly, it shows "Flathead", a prototype of LittleBigPlanet that is even older than the Yellowhead prototype (timestamp: 11:34).
- Secondly, it shows a Milestone build (probably milestone 6 or 7) where Sackboy gets tortured in a level with steep elevation and lots of gears (timestamp: 16:24).
- Thirdly, the video shows create mode in a milestone build. It still runs at 720p but the framerate is higher. It looks similar to create mode in the video with the cyclops boss (timestamp: 19:22).
- Lastly, it shows a playthrough of a level from the GDC07 build (timestamp: 26:22).
