Media Molecules medstifter Mark Healy har indrømmet, at selve styringen i LittleBigPlanet "irriterer" ham, men insisterer samtidig på, at studiet kan "forbedre" dette efter spillets udgivelse.

Flere tusinde spillere er i øjeblikket i gang med at afprøve spillet i den super-hyped beta, men flere har klaget over de mest basale styrefunktioner, når man skal styre Sackboy, ikke mindst når man skal skifte mellem de forskellige "2,5D"-niveauer.

Healey udtaler om problemet: "The Z [axis] movement is an incredibly hard thing for us to get right. There's times when it annoys me actually, but we can work on that if we want, and refine it. But on the whole, we got to a good place with it I think, because we wanted to cater for my mother and someone that's a hardcore player, so it was hard to get the balance there."

Healey tilføjer, at spillet er designet, så ændringer kan finde sted efter udgivelsen via en opdatering til download.

"There's definitely room for improvement and we've got the channel to be able to do that as well," siger han. "I'd really love to be able to do backflips and all kinds of things with my Sackboy, and there's no reason why we can't add that and refine that."

LittleBigPlanet udkommer eksklusivt til PlayStation 3 den 24. oktober.
