Blog Post #8 Little Big Planet

The Bruce Branit world builder is different from Little Big Planet. The world builder is built by a man instead of a small creature. The man used future based tools such as his hands and an invisible keyboard to build a town with plants. After he got done building the town, he added separate colors to the homes and apartments he built to make the town look real. Unlike Little Big Planet, his objective was to build a world for the woman he loves. Obviously, he achieved his goal and the woman enjoyed what she saw in the world. He can not fly in the world at all and he couldn't make any flying objects either. The man was standing in a big open gray space unlike the other interface in the game. You can see a change in technology because you don't have to use objects to move things around in the correct place. It is basically free hand for people.

Little Big Planet is different from The Bruce Branit world builder. The interface shows trees in the background with some dirt on the ground. The Little Big Planet world builder also has little creatures who use a lasso to move objects that already exist in the world. Some of the worlds require that you complete small tutorials to fullfill objectives. Each creature can fly in order to objects in higher areas. The characters also use more creativity with planes and trees to make it easier for world building. You can use open editing tools for resizing the objects to make a drastic change in the area.

Both of the programs build a world and they both use objects to put them together. Another similarity is that they are free to use any kind of puzzles for a particular world. They also show some type of goal at the end of every project. Both of these worlds are entertaining because they help you make pretend with a different world by viewing different objects. You can make things in a matter of seconds. Imagining a world filled with playgrounds, mansions, games, and stores. You are free to complete objectives that let you master your own editor tools for creating a land of some sort.
