			==Community manager==
			===Working at Media Molecule===
			Steven Isbell joined Media Molecule following the release of [[LittleBigPlanet 2]], where he worked with former community managers [[Tom Kiss]] and [[James Spafford]] for around six months.<ref name="IsbellInterview">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wANPbRNfJIw LittleBigInterview\|Steven Isbell] - Ayee on Youtube.com</ref> At this point, Media Molecule had begun to transition away from LittleBigPlanet in pursuit of new projects, including Tearaway and Dreams.

			===Intermediate work and [[Sumo Digital]]===
			Following Media Molecule's leave from LittleBigPlanet and Sumo Digital being largely responsible for the series' future, Steven Isbell continued his involvement with future projects, including [[LittleBigPlanet 3]] and the fated [[LittleBigPlanet HUB]]. During LittleBigPlanet 3's beta testing stages, Isbell was one of multiple managers responsible for choosing testers.

			===Later work and discontinuation===
			As further development for LittleBigPlanet 3 slowed, Steven Isbell continued to function as the game's community manager, while also being involved with projects such as [[Sackboy: A Big Adventure]].

			As the series' servers reached their final stage of support, Isbell encouraged community participation by frequently gifting Team Picks and codes for exclusive items such as the [[Rare Prize Crown]].<ref name="IsbellInterview">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wANPbRNfJIw LittleBigInterview\|Steven Isbell] - Ayee on Youtube.com</ref>
