The LittleBigPlanet 2009-06-29 prototype, referred to as Little Big Planet PSP on the XMB, is an alpha build of LittleBigPlanet for the PlayStation Portable. Dated June 29, 2009, it predates the final North American build by three and a half months.
It is recommended to run this prototype on official hardware — either with custom firmware on a PSP, or through Adrenaline on a PS Vita — as newer versions of the PPSSPP emulator hang on a black screen when trying to boot; v0.9.8, is known to work, however.
Overview
Create Mode is present, but it is very incomplete and unstable. A number of tools are unimplemented, most actions are likely to crash the game, and saving levels results in broken lighting.
A debug menu is enabled by default, accessed by pressing 
+ 
at the same time. Many of the options appear to be non-functional, or only work in specific contexts (Debug camera only works on the main menu, for example).
History
A backup DVD from a former SCE Cambridge Studio employee was found by MysteriousCube. The contents of the disc — which included builds for MediEvil: Resurrection, Wipeout Pure, and of course LittleBigPlanet — were dumped and released onto the ObscureGamers forums on June 27, 2020, and later mirrored onto the Internet Archive on November 2, 2022.
