There are 15 new levels in all, 4 by @TheAlpenter, 1 by @uNcleargamer (fans who really knocked it out of the park & built levels for me!).

Publisher asked for unique levels, for the retail release. Sure, I'll add 10 new levels to Micro-Hell! 😀 pic.twitter.com/cEzoXojLCJ

Disney Infinity 3.0 – Inside Out Play Set details

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments

Game Informer published an extensive report about the Inside Out Play Set coming to Disney Infinity 3.0. Details from the articles can be found below, and the full article is located here.

– Sequel to the film
– Riley is still the star
– While babysitting and watching TV, Riley falls asleep
– Riley accidentally brushes up against the remote as she’s sleeping which changes the channel to a scary movie
– This breaches her subconscious and all these scary images get into her head
– Riley’s emotions need to attend to this crisis
– Fight against broccoli, swamp creatures, bats, and other baddies
– More platforming focused than the other Play Sets
– Each emotion has its own unique ability
– Anger can run across lava
– Disgust can high jump
– Fear runs quickly
– Joy can glide across large gaps
– Sadness can walk across clouds
– Clouds are a big component of the levels
– Although Sadness can walk across them with ease, any other character can only step on them briefly before they disappear
– Need to quickly jump if you want to get past them without using Sadness
– If you’re playing co-op, Sadness can pick up another character like Anger and walk across the clouds with him
– Anger can pick up Sadness and carry her across the lava should she need it
– Can play alone if you want, but co-op is encouraged
– Musical gameplay: flip switches back and forth, turning on and off various platforms; match the musical lines and which platforms you’re going on to get through the various areas
– Gravity feature switches your perspective
– This turns the world and making you platform upside down
– Pop and collect balloons in the levels
– Need to swap characters for harder-to-reach balloons
– One enemy type is a bull that charges at you the moment they see you
– Can only defeat bulls by getting near an edge and move as it charges at you, so it falls off
– Swap characters by putting the other one on the Infinity Base and then can bring up the character wheel
