I'm always hearing about how there's these awesome creators out there that don't get any plays or any attention.
So here's a chance to name them. We have level recommendations already so no levels, just awesome creators that somehow manage to fly under the radar.
It's hard to find them :p but for example BobTox was one big freaking gem, he made whole series in LBP1 that much people didn't know about, and it's similar quality of design, thru it was no story platfromers. And imo he made best desined minigame on beta, that also didnt end up known:

Bloo_boy, he maybe sux in making gameplay bit his level art looks great :)
I don't know if count that, fotosynthesis1 made nice lost vikings-like series, not much people know about it
The_lil_joker do nice levels sometimes
Yea, it's little hard to list, sicne they are not known much, but maybe other people will list more :p
TBH, Ive never really noticed a truly great creator go unnoticed. They always seem to have levels that have several thousand plays each. In my opinion, thats "getting noticed". If a level is actually good, it usually becomes popular just because its good, and then all the junk is what thankfully goes unnoticed.
Yes, BobTox is a hidden gem :). I can't think of any really.... unless you count LiGhTmArE who already has an Mm Pick for Cyber Strata. I like his levels :)
Gek83, solid platforming, great visuals, and usually something humorous. Only 1 LBP2 level currently published, but definitely a creator to keep an eye on.
Greemaa, his/her levels are tough with good gameplay and always have a weird lighting set-up/visual techniques that makes them look great.
But his/her newest published level actually only got 1 play, and that was me. http://lbp.me/v/0eyshq :(
The level with the highest amount of plays is 439, the rest are well below that. (There's about 15-25 full platforming, complete and published levels too!)
Bobtox isn't one now though, everyone will know him (in good time) Can I say myself? Ok anyway Squidgyboy is a good creator and should probably be more recognized.
Yea, BobTox is already uncovered, same as lightmare imo. I queued levels of mention people here :)
I dig a little more in my list here some other less know creators:
ShamgarBlade - his levels was been playeo n beta lot but not in full game, his art is great :)
coasterfreak1235 - this guy is freaking logic beast, he like to make puzzle levels
Sir_Linque - how the hell i forgot about him, his Sackbot X is freaking well made custom platfromer, much better from stuff he was experimenting in beta
horiiiiii. Best creator in Japan I've seen so far.
I have a feeling they will make some excellent LBP2 levels. They otherwise have some epic LBP1 levels. (I don't know horiiiiii's gender.)
Gemma/Geppa (Not sure)
Im not sure if (probobly she) is active on LBP anymore, but her levels were always something I went back to for an example of top quality, original work.
I have one of my own. Guneye , he was a logic genius in lbp1 and is creating some sick stuff in lbp2. Keep an eye out
Definitely my favorite for this is Alley_Cat_8633.
He's made some incredible platforming levels that each got a couple hundred plays mostly from so many renowned creators leaving great reviews. His levels are fantastic, I'd really recommend him.

Ill update with more later :D
^ ditto dajdaj03. He's easily one of the best creators out there, and one of my personal favorites. Nice guy too.
Also, Kipmonlin...didn't he do Vanilla Breeze and Common Cold? If that's the same guy, then yeah....he's really good.
Although I would contest that either of these are "unsung" creators, since they have both been spotlighted here at LBPC, and in dajdaj's case I know that Mammoth Hunt was among the most popular movie levels in the beta, gathering thousands of plays.
I discovered CRIFFER yestoday :>

He knows how to use layer glitch thats for sure
Yea I just met Daj through comphy a couple days ago and he is truly one awesome creator and a great artist. I would have mentioned him but I didn't know that he flew under the radar.Quote:

And I'm sure the rest are awesome! Just not too familiar with them :)
Why, thank you very much! Truly, you have made my day!Quote:

We are both expert creators with a very long experience.
He won a crown once in a competition. He is just awesome at visuals.

I played LBP for years every day since the first public beta (LBP1).
I am an expert at logic and I like to make platformers.
I also made a Pong remake which is the best Pong game in LBP and maybe the best Pong remake every made.

But the best thing is my YouTube channel. It is the biggest LBP2 tutorial channel on YouTube. I have the most high quality tutorials. I also upload levels and I do creator spotlights soon.
YouTube channel
My goal is it to get known by Mm and get a crown.
I just donīt know how to accomplish this because its very hard to get known on LBP.
Wow. This annoys me somewhat.Quote:

So, you're not one of the communities cool-club members that gets mentioned in every article ever written on any LBP-based site. So, wut?
Why don't you try struggling to scratch a triple figure play count, and then claim nobody notices you.
You've got more than the vast majority of creators - Appreciate that.
