LittleBigPlanet Boss: Controls Annoy Me Sometimes

In a remarkable bit of honesty, Media Molecule co-founder Mark Healey has admitted his company hasn't gotten the controls for LittleBigPlanet entirely right just yet.

Speaking to Eurogamer, Healey admits that "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."

According to Healey, getting the controls right is partly difficult "because we wanted to cater for my mother and someone that's a hardcore player."

The PlayStation 3-exclusive platformer ships October 21 -- leaving no time for improvements before release, but Media Molecule will be patching the game.

"There's definitely room for improvement and we've got the channel to be able to do that" Healey added. "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."
