Project Lighthouse

Project Lighthouse is a project created by the LBP Union's Ministry of Technology division and developed by its in-house Research and Development team. It is known for developing custom servers for the older LittleBigPlanet games, collectively named Beacon. The project was formed and announced not long after the LittleBigPlanet PS3 servers shutdown.

=== Formation and development ===
Project Lighthouse was first conceived as early as October 5, 2021. The project underwent its private beta state the same year by November, and the public beta was released on March 6, 2023, coinciding with the 2nd anniversary of 3/6 (the March 6 LittleBigPlanet server attacks). By March 18, the servers had amassed 100 players.

=== Censorship ===
Since August 31, 2022, a handful of users have criticized the LBP Union, claiming that the LBP Union wants to replace Project Lighthouse's lead developer, Jvyden. Twitter replies regarding the criticism have been hidden by the official LBP Union Twitter account, which got them criticized for their censorship and lack of transparency.
