Co-founder of Media Molecule, Alex Evans, recently discussed the new direction that the developer plans on taking its LittleBigPlanet franchise with Gamasutra. Needless to say, the development team and upper management are more than a little excited about their next plans for the lovable SackBoy, with Evans dubbing it "really f***ing cool."

 

"We're gonna just take a character, we're just gonna try this direction. It's a quite interesting thing because it was like a magnet. Everyone sort of [joined in] on that thing, then I suddenly saw these people kind of going, 'Oh my god, far from being tired of LBP, I suddenly see this untapped potential,' " bubbled Evans.

 

"And in ways that hopefully will still be fresh so when it comes back, people won't be like, 'Yeah, they just exploited that thing, and it's really ****ing obvious that they would do that.' I think LBP is in their future, and hopefully in surprising ways," he continued.

 

A note worth making is that the PlayStation Portable version of LittleBigPlanet isn't the one being discussed by Evans above. Our bet is on some form of 3D platformer that is somewhat similar to a Ratchet & Clank style of game, but with SackBoy leading the way.

 

What do you guys think the geniuses over at Media Molecule have brewing behind those closed doors?
