Don't Panic is an indie magazine based in the United Kingdom with branches in Europe, Asia, Australia and even South America. Why do we suddenly care? They are in collaboration with SCEE in a Character Creation Competition for LittleBigPlanet, that's why. Those of you who enjoyed the previous sackboy we posted but thinks they've got a cooler idea can now contribute their own, and if chosen, will appear in the final game.
We can't believe how awesome this is. Anyone from amateurs to artists and everyone in between can participate in this by downloading a template in PDF, EPS or JPG. Let those creative juices flow. Then head over to their website, read all the rules, cross your fingers and submit your work. If you lack talent like this blogger, head over anyway to take a look some of the already submitted entries. Voting begins on July 14th so make you sure you submit your design before that. A little piece of advice: be original. We already saw 2 different Superman sackboys submitted -- call it a hunch, but we don't think either of them are going to be chosen.

It's pretty much a cert that there will be a company official Solid Snake Sackboy so I don't see the use in submitting versions of Snake to this contest.
I liked the Sackboy-Robot submission - though I don't know if they'll go with the "kill switch" aspect. Might be a little bit dark for LBP.

We need this game released. Not paper cut-outs for us to pretend we have this game.

Wouldn't it be pointless to create one that's based on an existing trademarked character? Could do with that being officially said so it stops a lot of people that want to win the competition wasting their time. Those that want to design 'em just for fun should continue to though of course.
