Imagine a Scribblenauts 2...

Don't have time to read the article right now, does it mention if its controlled with the dpad for movement now or not?

The gameplay has been improved DRASTICALLY. In addition to being able to switch to D-pad at any time, the touch screen controls now are improved. Like, when you stop touching, Maxwell stops too. And stuff isn't knocked over so easily this time. Everything has more weight now. So yeah, controls ironed out a lot.

As cool as those might sound, there's a very fine line between a complex, challenging, engaging level, and a pain in the ass level that makes you throw your DS at the wall. :/
Issue I see with an editor is lack of motivation: When you can make ANYTHING, where do you start?

Still excited for this. :]

Edit:
I still want to see some kind of system for adding new words for existing sprites*, and new sprites + word combos.

*Chinchilla, guinea pig, and hamster all had the same sprite in the first game.

Ah, but I don't mean you creating your levels, but you playing other people's ones! And apparently, they are changing some of the already existing words. Jetpack, for example, doesn't run out of fuel so easily now. And canon lets you load stuff in it. Like hamsters.Yes, hamsters.

But yeah, I just hope for them to make sharing levels easy... It'd be just PERFECT that way.
