Does fast feet have any noticable effect?

It makes a sound.

They are colorful shoes that make sounds. They have no effect gameplay-wise.

If you take it, it shows one of those tiny sparks you always see when you collect an item. As for gameplay: doesn't have consequences, never had, and probably never will have.

It doesn't effect gameplay. When I first saw the event in JCS, I thought that it was something to make you able to run faster, but I guess I was wrong. ;p

It is misleading. Most events that you can see actually work. This is an exception.

Too bad the Rectangular Gem event doesn't work. That would be cool.

In my JCS.ini there are three events called Rect Gem Red, Rect Gem Green, and Rect Gem Blue.

Ah, yes. I never notice them. Just go straight to normal gems :)

Fast feet would have made Jazz or Spaz lightning fast ala the first Jazz, for a short amount of time but allowing great distance.

The fastest speed in Jazz 2 reached with shift or another control matches this speed roughly. Originally either character may not have had the faster speed and would have attained it with the fast feet pickup - but this may not have had the desired effect, and the game may have seemed too slow or something without the faster speed, so it would have been scrapped. This is obviously just speculation. but not inaccurate.
If the fast speed was originally a control and not from fast feet, introducing an even faster speed with fast feet would have been difficult to control and make enough space for. Either of these ways it wouldn't have worked best although it was surely a good and fun feature, just like the other quarter of Jazz 2 that was left out but easily spotted.


Stuff is good

I wish that slide, lava and fire events would've worked too.

I am pretty sure that Lava and Fire, like Leaf, are things that were just made into tiles (In Inferno, Dam Nation and Diamondus) to save time. Snow was the other way around, as it's a working event, but it's in tiles in Inferno.

Snow, however, has an annoying tendancy to turn the color of the palette.
