LittleBigPlanet (LBP) is a 2008 puzzle-platform game developed by British developer Media Molecule and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3. It was announced in March 2007, by Phil Harrison at the Game Developers Conference. The game includes user-generated content allowing users to create their own levels. The game received critical acclaim from critics and has been praised for its presentation, including its graphics, physics, and audio, along with its gameplay and a large array of customisable costumes and online features. Additional praise was given to its scope and future potential based on user-created content; minor criticism was reserved for specific elements of the gameplay mechanics and level creation facilities. LittleBigPlanet has won several awards. A PSP version of the game was released in November 2009, featuring new levels. The game was offered by Sony as a free download as part of their 'Welcome Back' program, following the PlayStation Network outage of 2011. A sequel, LittleBigPlanet 2, was released in 2011.
