Very new and creative and fun
Overall the game has a much more creative, collage type of aesthetic and includes many different styles into one, such as Communist/Conformist Russia with big factory/industry with 50's alien obsession era in The Factory of a New Tomorrow. At the same time, the mix does make sense - 50's was the height of the cold war. A mix with space theme and arcade theme makes sense as well in the Cosmos since arcades have many space themed games. I was very impressed with the general art of the game. Screw graphics, try building or even drawing a level with art as fine the creators' levels.
Another amazing thing about story is that it does NOT END AS SOON AS ONE FINISHES IT. There are tons of items to collect and costumes too if the levels are aced (beaten without dying at all). Believe me, this takes quite a while...
There's always building your own level based on your inspirations and ideas. I've tried a few, they looked pretty cool, but unfortunately, WAY TOO SHORT.
And... no one plays them. As much as I love this game, I am disappointed that there aren't much people who try to find good levels and that there is no quick system to bringing good levels to the top of the ranks. The cool levels page is filled with crap, so you would have to go to Youtube or MM Picks page and find good levels (It's definitely doable but unfortunately many good levels are unheard of).
The levels that are heard of on Youtube and on the MMPicks page are absolutely phenomenal. Media Molecule has a good habit of only choosing levels that do something innovative (even if it is making good use of a new bug!!) Right now there are about 150-200 great MM Pick levels aside from the 30 unbeatable story levels.
And I believe that in order to appreciate LBP in general, try making your own fricking level first and then play what others have. Then you'll see genius, I swear to God you will.
9.8/10
