If you're a not-so seasoned player, it can be hard to find something that gels with your skill level. Or maybe you're looking for a challenge. So my quest is to stream every (at least decent) single player level on J2O, and gather them into a single spreadsheet!
At the start of this journey, I'm looking to play from a variety of authors. Whether they're old or new, I'll take them. For the sake of bias, please try refraining from promoting your own levels. Here, you can view the progress spreadsheet. (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aNmYZQYz_SphGXxdv6WsANzoFIbJWAnMqawLzV2nhcs/edit?usp=sharing)
Each listed level has a difficulty and overview with a brief description of what to expect. I'll also get to adding levels I already played in the list after a replay.
So yeah, post your single player recommendations! It's for everyone, not just me. :lori: If not, I'll keep going through the downloads page alone.

The example levels in Gnegon's Diamondus Ultimate (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/9359/diamondus-ultimate/) and Jungle Ultimate (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/9439/jungle-ultimate/) are amazing. Vanilla-like level design with fun scripted mechanics.
Violet CLM's levels (https://www.jazz2online.com/user/458/violet-clm/downloads/) are great in general, I'd recommend all of them but a few (Mini Boss Rush, TOMB, Yamato Castle). This includes EmeraldusV (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/7883/emeraldusv/), which isn't classified as Single Player on J2O.
Slaz's levels are pretty good too, although he has a certain style of making levels that definitely isn't for everyone. I can't recommend any particular level of his (they're all similarly good), just look at what he's uploaded chronologically and try what seems interesting to you.
The Even More Secret Files (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/8120/the-even-more-secret-files/) is a good, lengthy, vanilla-like pack which I like. Jazz Jackrabbit 2,5 - The Big Rescue (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/9215/jazz-jackrabbit-25-the-big-rescue-part-1/) is another great pack, it's a shame the creator didn't continue it.
Future2055 (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/9268/future2055/) has an example level that could very well be a standalone SP level. Vanilla in terms of level design but it's solid.
From looking at my old reviews, I can see that I enjoyed playing Cemetric Commando (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/6530/cemetric-commando/). I don't know if my review holds up but you might as well try it and see for yourself.
Psychomondus (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/7882/psychomondus/) is a level I liked when it came out but other reviewers seem to think otherwise. I'm not sure if it works on the latest Plus version. (EDIT: Just tested it and yes, it has a script error that doesn't allow it to work for newer Plus versions. I uploaded a fixed version here (https://mega.nz/file/0AlgVZ4Y#oKT0NsFOH7K1Be5LuZo2nKsTchoX94uB-lBQb22X73w).)
Maybe Lori Fortress (https://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/8204/lori-fortress/). I think I'm a better level designer than I was 3+ years ago but I believe it holds up decently well.
