First JJ game

[Treylina]

Poll-thing, go!

...not much else to say.

The JJ1 Christmas shareware version (Holiday Hare something-or-other?). I think it was one of the games my sister and I played the single-player mode together (one of us would take the arrow keys, the other the fire button).

Pretty sure that it was the non-tsf shareware

Jazz 1, in 1994.

I'm not sure if first I played JJ2 or JJ2:TSF, but I know I was playing both of these games in 2004.

[Jelly Jam]

Jazz Jackrabbit 2, in 2003.

[SAMI]

Jazz JackRabbit 2 (1.22) in 1999. But I lost it and played Shareware version since then (Shareware version in early 2000, can't remember if I played it in 1999 cause its impossible to remember).

Jazz 1, in '96/97, shareware version. Didn't play the full version until 99/2000, and bought JJ2 at a chinese thrift store downtown for 2$ in 2001.

...Viral JJ2

[Borgia]

It must have been that JJ1 demo, with Medivo, Diamondus and Tubelectric.

Although I had acquired TSF before getting version 1.23, I had version 1.00h for many years beforehand, hence why I voted for JJ2.

My first JJ2 version was 1.20. I played in server called ''go go go friends!!!'' for like 6 months. We played only battle1, 2 and 3 there. There were like 15 of us who played all over the world. One of them was Reni :) then I managed to host a server with singleplayer levels and SOMEHOW Ron and other guys joined my server with colored names, interesting character (Lori) that we couldn't see normally and all other interesting things and told me that there is 1.23 version and TSF. I googled for J2O and found it. Then I started playing in Zeal Alpha and found out the whole new ''JJ2 world'' there. I still miss some friends I got in 1.20. I had them all on MSN but nobody actually wanted to move on :(

We all had those good friends in the past that we would do anything just to talk to them again.

The JJ1 shareware around 1994-1995. I saw my dad play it (after being attracted upstairs by it's music) and asked if I could too, he said it was too late and that I may play it tomorrow. That's what I remember.

[Skulg]

At age 7, I had randomly discovered the JJ1 Holiday Hare version in a huge collection of shareware games my Dad had borrowed from a coworker. The screenshot looked interesting (mainly because of the big blue bulldog in it; I loved bulldogs as a kid) so I installed it - and instantly fell in love with it!

I think bumping an old thread is a better choice and making another one for the same thing, so I will allow myself to post in this one :)

My first Jazz Jackrabbit game was the Jazz Jackrabbit 2! I remember having a big box but for some reasons I moved all of my cd-roms to a single big case and all of the gaming stuff like magazines, boxes and such were thrown out :(

[GoldRabbit]

Living in Eastern Europe, pretty much everyone here had either TSF or 1.20. I was around 5 years old when one of my cousins installed TSF on my computer and I started playing it (so it was probably the summer of 2001), but back then our internet wasn't really working (or cheap), nor was my mother willing to get off the phone for me to be able to play.

Almost 3 years would have to pass before I finally became part of the online community too.
