Newbie advice...

Just picked up this little gem of a game today

To save time for myself and other newbies trolling through the post and threads. I would like to know what advice you would offer so that i/we may get the best enjoyment out of it.

Hey . Play through the Story (collecting however much you can be bothered to). Then make a level, and join the community. Some of the Levels people make are insane. Have Fun!

Re: Newbie advice...

Some of the stickers you need to collect are not on the same individual level as the sticker switch. They are within the same 'creators' continent though

Re: Newbie advice...

thanks

i've noticed that you will need to replay some parts with a friend which i think is cool.

so if there are anyone thats just got it or doesn't mind playing some of the lvs again to help me out, that would be cool

have to say after only having it one day i'm hooked. A game that even the missus doesn't mind me playing

Re: Newbie advice...

^^ Add me if you like ^^

I don't mind playing through a few of the earlier levels, god knows I've played through some if them a lot already and I have a few levels that require 2/3/4 players to get the stickers so you can help me with those too

My tip would be - remember you can adjust your jump in mid flight so if you think you've overshot something, you can redeem it!

Cool and I'm sure we can do the 4 player ones too, I'll just fire up my other controller and juggle

I think it depends on your mic. Well it might not be flaky but I usually hear a lot of background noise.
