— Level description

Evil Duckies! is a community level created by user AchillesPDX and initially published on LittleBigPlanet. The level is a single-life shooting gallery where the player must destroy as many falling duckies as possible without dying. The level was featured in LittleBigPlanet's Game of the Year Edition

Overview

Walkthrough guide

The level involves a set of rules which are explained before starting the game. The level utilizes the paintinator, which players must use to shoot at the falling duckies; the paintinator has limited ammo and must be reloaded at stations at alternating sides of the gallery. Each ducky shot is worth a single point, with the sum given after death through score bubbles. Once inside the shooting gallery, the door out will close, and the game will continue until the player dies by touching one of the duckies.

The level's main gimmick involves the "Double or Nothing" wheel. Surviving in 20 second intervals grant one spin on the wheel. Upon death, the player can choose to either accept their score or use their collected spins to earn a chance at doubling their points. Landing on either two of the skulls forces the player to the scoreboard, landing on any of the four O's grants nothing, and landing on either two of the x2's grants double.

Quotes

“	Hi everyone, may [sic] name's Jared Boehm, known online as 'AchillesPDX', and this is my level "Evil Duckies!" for LittleBigPlanet. For this level I wanted to make things as complicated as I could, whilst still keeping track of what everything did. And there's a lot of stuff going on behind the scenes that I wish you could see. Make sure you watch out for the SKULL on the WHEEL OF MISFORTUNE at the end of the level, 'cause that's instant death. Have fun with my level, and enjoy shooting those evil duckies.	„
