JJ1 hidden messages

[Violet CLM]

There are several places in Jazz Jackrabbit 1 where there are messages written on the wall or floating in the air. Strangely, these are never included in the conversions. I have found three, maybe four of these funny things. Tell me if you know of any more, please.

I think there's one in Diamondus, but I'm not sure.

Laguunicus has two! "Dark, isn't it?" and "Look 4 Jazz 2".

Holidaius (HH94) has "Craig is a Doofus" or something on those lines.




Well?

In one of the levels in Jazz 2 (A medivo one) there's a sign that says "Craig is STILL a doofus"

[Talec]

I found the "What are you doing up here?" one ^_^

But that's all so far...

I've found no messages so far sadly, i must just be too quick ;) I did manage to find loads in JJ2 however!

Also lol at the idiot who -repped me for this post 10 years after i made it, glad i was worth the effort :D

I also found Craig is a Doofus. Hmmm... I don't know if I saw any others, though.

Hey, this board is cool!

I remember seeing one near the birdy...

The CHEESE is GREEN on TUESDAY and will STAY THAT WAY!

[Violet CLM]

"What are you doing up here"? Is that the one in Diamondus?

Whee, a Medivo text! I'm going to look for it.

Somehow I don't believe that about green tuesday and cheesy ways.

[Talec]

It's in Turtemple, actually :P

[Monolith]

I just remember seing the "What are you doing way up here?" one.

[The Trasher]

Medivo in Jazz 2...

[Violet CLM]

This has nothing about Jazz 2!

Oh no, Turtemple. I remember getting totally confused there. Oh well. :mad:

[RosetaJOL]

I found the one: what are you doing up here?
in Jazz1, Diamondus and thats all in Jazz1.
I found loads in Jazz2.

Me and nitro were wondering about the craig is a doofis thingy when we were still sorta newbies, (sorry nitro, but everyone has been one!) and i remember seeing the "What are you doing up here?" one.

It seems unlikely that these messages have <em>never</em> come up, but I can't find any mention of them anywhere, so I'm going to count it as a discovery for the time being. If you replace the 0,0,0 color in Letni with something brighter, you can make out two brief messages that are practically invisible with the tileset's natural coloring:

"EPIC"
"THIS SPACE 4 RENT"

Hooray for the revival of a topic untouched for the last eleven years! Here's a few I uncovered in the editor.

Diamondus (JJ1): "Tim is a dork"

Lagunicus Boss Level (JJ1): "F*** off lamerz"

Marbelara (JJ1): One of the white marble blocks says "Nick" in small letters.

Deserto (JJ1): Three messages.

"Cliff is Co|" [Presumably Cliff is Cool]

"Eat Me"

"Epic Rules"

Deserto Secret Level (JJ1): A shadowy image depicting several people standing in a line.

That's <a href="http://www.jazz2online.com/node.php?title=aboutBefore">the JJ1 development team.</a> (Also you don't really need an editor to see that, it's easily accessible ingame.)


While we're inexplicably on the subject, I'll mention that the green background text in <a href="http://spriters-resource.com/pc_computer/jazzjrabbit/sheet/19887">Deckstar</a> spells out "JAZZ" in one tile and "KIL DA WAH BIT" (Loony Tunes reference) in another. I have no idea what if anything the red text in the latter tile is supposed to say, though, nor the dark blue text underneath the Darth Vader-looking background head. I've tried comparing them to Aurabesh characters and still had no luck.
