Little Big World is the smallest and final level exclusively featured in the PlayStation 1 version of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4.
This level is set on a giant kitchen counter. It features a sink, stove, toaster, book, utensils, pieces of cheese, and a pot all of which can be grounded. There is also a trail of matches which can be grounded. There appears to be a fridge with magnets but it doesn't have any purpose other than decoration. The corners are outfitted with many wooden rails for grinding. Anything beyond the kitchen counter is inaccessible except for a window sill which is used for gaps. If a skater falls off the side of the counter, then he will be teleported back to the previous spot. However, it is possible to grind along the edges of the stove and counter.
Like the other levels in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, the player is expected to complete a checklist of gaps. If the player manages to complete the checklist, then they will be rewarded with a new cheat. Otherwise, they will need to accomplish the checklists for the other levels.
This level alongside The Sewers (which was the other level exclusive to the PS1 version of THPS4), Carnival and Chicago did not reappear in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, making them the only four levels to not return in the remake.
Goals[]
There are no normal goals within this level though there are some gaps to complete.
Trivia[]
- This is one of the few Levels in the Tony Hawk games where the player is small and the objects are gigantic. The others are Andy's Bedroom, Pizza Planet and Pinball.
- The clock on the stove reads 10:01, although the breakfast is on the stove. At that time, it might be brunch.
- It is unknown as to whether the skater is shrunk or the kitchen is literally gigantic.
- Most of the gaps in Little Big World are named after items related to food.
- The room around the level is actually a skybox.
- This level might have some connection to the unused character Fry Cook, only presented in GBA version of the game. However Fry Cook model, as well as a custom deck set, can be found in game archives.
- Interestingly enough, there exists some specials that are not assigned to any character in the final game. These seem to be connected to Fry Cook, as the names seemingly involve food/cooking.
- Food Poisoning (What happens if you prepare food incorrectly.)
- Flip Yo Self (Possibly referencing how fry cooks flip food in their pans.)
- Flapjack (A different way of saying pancakes.)
