EpicGamers on deviantART - January 26th 2012
Source: Deviant Art
Are you a fan artist, or have you ever even pretended to be? You should join the EpicGamers group over at deviantART. It was created in collaboration with Epic Games’ official community blog, and it’s got a Jazz Jackrabbit folder that’s looking awfully lonely right about now. (And even if you’re not a traditional artist, they’re open to the possibility of exploring other media, so… give them a try! Maybe this is the big break that Adventures in Stonar has been looking for!)

Resurrection of Evil Episode 1:
Time Lapse by Laro B
One of the latest (and few) single player level packs to come out so far, RoE1 plays well, looks good, and is all around fantastic!
(…)the levels are well designed for the most part, look great and above all are fun to play.
Review by PurpleJazz (8.4)
The story is fine and the levels are alright.
Review by Ron97 (8.0)
Dean Dodrill -- the animator of JJ2's cutscenes, artist for TSF and JJ3, and creator of Lori -- is still working on Dust: An Elysian Tail and has announced that it will be released sometime in 2012.
Congratulations to Slaz for writing the 33333th review on J2O!

New poll - December 31st 2011
It’s been forever and a day since we last asked you much of anything on J2O, so let’s ring in the new year with a new poll: Best secret level? Options include everything from JJ1 and JJ2, because I have no idea how to decide which levels in JJ3 do or do not count as secret levels. If you’re unfamiliar with some of the levels in question, here are some guides.
in before people claim there’s no medivo secret level in JJ1
tune in next time when I ask you about your favorite multiplayer map in JJA
