Level description

Tie Skipping is the first challenge level in LittleBigPlanet, and the sole survival challenge in the Gardens. In order to unlock this level, the corresponding Level Key from Get a Grip must be collected.

Overview

Walkthrough Guide

The aim of this survival challenge is to stay atop a platform suspended above horrible gas while jumping over a stick protruding at the end of King Henry's spinning tie. With each successful jump, a single score bubble will emit for the player to immediately collect. As time progresses, Henry's tie will gradually speed up, making successive jumps increasingly difficult. Dying will end the challenge, and the player will respawn at the scoreboard for their final score.

Trivia

  • Although the level's description and Big Xam's dialogue both refer to the "King", this is not in in reference to the King of the Gardens, but rather King Henry VIII, whom the blue-suited character is designed after.
