Hmmm, so why many people are interested in playing this game? I'm sorry, but I don't know much of this game. I've seen pics and looks great, but other than that? Is it a platformer? Adventure? What?

It's a platformer that emphasizes player made content whether it be levels, objects, costumes and others and the distribution of this content through online play. 

 

Well, if players have to make levels, etc. then I don't think a lot of "casual" players will be interested in it. I thought casual players preferred Pick up'n play games. Even some traditional players don't like Creating/Editing things. Hmm don't know, I need to see some videos first.

 

The central gameplay mechanic is using a small sack creature in a 2D sidescrolling fashion to complete tasks, platform jumping/boss fighting/riding vechiles, to go from one end of a level to another.

It's pseudo-SMB because Sackboy's chief form of action seems to be jumping accompanied by grabbing devices to complete these tasks.
