I think you have to say what the project is first.

[Dermo]

I would recommend adding levels to your level set for starts...

[Jgke]

And before that, choose tilesets.

[Foly]

Maybe you also want a theme, but thats optional.

[CrimiClown]

Oh, is it a jazz-game to begin with or does "Jackpack" just roll off the tongue better?

[FawFul]

i advice you to eat pizza.

[Seren]

I advice you to give me your pizza.

Let me give a hand to those who are acting (intentionally?) clueless. Jackpack isn't something new that PT32 is starting off in this post, it's his/her project of converting JJ1 levels into JJ2. It includes these uploads:
Turtle Terror
Nippius
Turtemple
Dreempipes
Fanolint
Mega Air Base
Jazz 1 Level

@Faw:
Hah! I love it. That's a'what I'm talking about. Keep it coming!

@U.R. (and Mike too):
Thank you guys for reminding me about that! I guess I did forget to explain it. So for all you readers, here it is:

Unknown Rabbit pretty well summed it up with what he said, in that it's a JJ1 level recreation project I've toyed around with for awhile without releasing more than one or two levels at a time.
Until now. I've started doing whole episodes instead of just individual worlds. It translates to better gameplay that way. It's also now 1.23-ified, which it wasn't before.
But, I realise that it DOES have its problems... (arrgh, my space key is sticking)
Medivo was probably the best in terms of playability, I suppose. As I have been told (and totally agree), Tubelectric kinda stank because of the noted lack of enemies (save for the sparks). Diamondus maybe could've been a little better, had I invested a little more time in testing it.
However, I've never released a whole episode before, and certainly nothing to this extent, so I would appreciate it if you show me a bit of latitude. Episode 2 will undoubtedly be much improved.
I forgot to say this on J2O, but my purpose in doing this is so that the people who can't get Jazz 1 (or can't find one compatible with DOSbox, like I did) will be able to at least see what it's like. It's far from perfect, but frankly it's one of the better versions out there. If I can get something remotely close to JJ1 into the community's respective hands, then my time will not have been wasted. I look forward to working on more of the same (well, better versions of more of the same).
Oh, if you happen to play the older single planets I released and you don't like 'em, don't panic. I swear to you I won't do any more blocks-for-baddies copping-out! I'm kinda sorry now I even did it. I've ironically actually finished Episode 3 already, (and 4 and 5 are almost done) but I'm waiting to upload it until I've made #2. It will for sure be way better.
Oh, and btw, it's "he". Not "she".
