Fall Guys is back with another season of next Wednesday, 10th May, but there’s a major new addition this time around in the form of the freshly unveiled build-it-yourself Creative mode, giving players the tools to construct and share their own levels.
Creative mode functions pretty much as you’d expect, offering what looks to be an intuitive, fully featured construction toolkit available directly in-game. Developer Mediatonic demoed the new mode in today’s reveal livestream, explaining that, at launch, players can build Races levels using either Fall Guys’ original or new digital themes – with additional themes, round types, obstacles, and music set to be added in future updates.
After budding stage makers have selected their round type and theme, Creative mode then whisks them into the new building view, where they can call up a list of placeable objects – all grouped by category – including obstacles, decorations, and more.
There looks to be a fairly robust set of tools for actual object placement, including rotation, snapping, and even a multi-select tool, enabling builders to copy groups of objects to be pasted elsewhere. Mediatonic says “most” objects include adjustable properties – so you can change an item’s colour, change the number of doors on a door wall, pick a conveyer belt’s direction, and so on – with the key restriction coming from the building “budget”. Essentially, this limits how much you can place in a level, with different objects having different “costs”.
