A LittleBigPlanet retrospective and other trivia: meet Sackboy's ancestor, Yellow Head |
Ó
Prompted by this post at ThreeSpeech made today, we've decided to use this opportunity for some trivia too. As you may have guessed, this isn't much of a news piece, but rather, more of a retrospective.
Below is a video taken from the early years (circa 2007) of LittleBigPlanet. It shows a prototype of the game, complete with Yellow Head, the pre-cursor and ancestor of what we now affectionately call Sackboy.
Some other interesting trivia that might save your life one day:
- The idea for the game was first discussed by Media Molecule co-founders Mark Healey and Dave Smith after watching Studio Ghibli's animated movie Howl's Moving Castle.
- In its prototype stage, the game's working title was "Craftworld".
- Control design was first implemented using a PS2 controller connected to the PC. Almost akin to controlling a Katamari, Yellow Head's right arm was controllable by the right analog stick, while the left arm, the left analog stick.
- When LittleBigPlanet was first presented - this would have been during GDC 2007 - the game had only gone less than one year into development.

You've got something wrong in your article here.
*** LITTLEBIGSPOILE R AHEAD ***
There already is a Yellow Head costume. If you beat the last boss, The Collector, without dying, you unlock it.
*** END OF SPOILERS ***
Just thought you might want to know. I use it all the time in my game.
Well then there you go. Guess we all know who hasn't finished playing the game yet. Haha. Thanks for the spoilers. LOL :-p
that yellow thing looks kick ass,lol.thanks for the spoiler,now to get that costume.
I've seen a couple dudes with this costume...was wondering where/how they got it...
If i were to beat him again without dying this time, would i be rewarded with the Yellow Head costume or do i have to play the game all over again?
