Little Big Planet 3 Signature Series Strategy Guide › Welcome to the Popit Academy

Stamping Materials

Although you’ve finished your first lesson, there is lots more to learn at Popit Academy. Learning to use materials is one of the most important things you should master when you’re getting ready to build in Create Mode. As you start this lesson, your sack person dons their hat and follows along with Larry Da Vinci.

Building Platforms

Your sack person is going to face many, many gaps in their adventures, and you can fill them with shapes that you create using materials you collect. Create your first bridge to get to the Prize Bubble for the Thick Curved Charcoal Arrow Sticker.

To the Left

Before you head to the right to start your sack person’s next lesson at the academy, you can take a turn to the left instead and build a platform to three additional Prize Bubbles. These goodies are for the Crepuscular Ray Decoration, Grease Splat Sticker, and Margin Doodle 5 Sticker.

In the next room, build a platform of your choosing to make it across the spikes to the lower platform, where you can pop the Prize Bubble for the Margin Doodle 6 Sticker. Make your way up to the upper platform to proceed to the right, popping the Acrylic Tube (Short) Object Prize Bubble along the way.

Press while moving your sack person with the left stick to climb in the next room. However, you must also create some platforms with your Hi-Vis Vest material to reach the Prize Bubbles for the Tuning Peg Decoration, Brain Sticker, and Hedgehog Silhouette Sticker.

A New Way to Recycle

Rejoin Larry Da Vinci to learn about deleting materials with other materials using the Recycle button, then give it a whirl.

Cutting through Other Materials

If you want to get rid of a material in your level, you can cut through it with another material. Hold the shape over the area you want to delete, and then press to watch it disappear. You can also hold while wiping with the left stick to tackle large areas.

Once the grate drops, climb it with to reach the platform to the right. At the top, burst the Prize Bubble for the Red Hacksaw Decoration, and jump to the right.

Building a Staircase

See that Prize Bubble hidden up above the next Popit Powerup? The only way to reach it is to build your way to it, so your sack person can climb up there. One way to do this is to create several towers in increasing size, leading from your sack person to the Prize Bubble.

Your sack person can then ascend the staircase you’ve created to get ahold of the Pink Splat Sticker.

Ready, Set, Race!

Now that you know how to use your materials to build platforms and cut through things, you’re ready to challenge yourself with a race. See how quickly your sack person can make it through, and make sure they collect all the Prize Bubbles along the way.

In the first area, your sack person can climb their way to the Acrylic Tube (Long) Object. Slide through the tube to the next area, where you can lower your sack person to the Spiral 1 Sticker and McBess Cartoon Smile Sticker, then drop through the middle to the area below.

Now, cut a zigzagging staircase-like path to the Prize Bubbles in this big orange block.

These Prize Bubbles are for the Hazard Markings Sticker and Brass Door Knocker Decoration.

Finally, your sack person can pop the Prize Bubbles for the “The Birds and the Bees”Audio Object and the Paper Peelback Decoration. Erase the orange rectangle to lower Larry Da Vinci, and you’re all set for this lesson.
