Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Terrific tileset. Agama quality. :)

The tileset is beautifully drawn, has fantastic backgrounds, and the example level is great(I’m not rating by the level, mind you). It really shows off how awesome the tileset is. Mainly all the leaves and bushes contribute to the amazon feeling..

There is one bad thing about this tileset, really. The big trees you can stand on, don’t always fit. This is logical, but Agama should have provided two versions of the top of the tree(the yellow wood thing), so that it always fits. Maybe this is an idea for a next version.

Why, Spaz boy?

Prison sewer: 4 out of 5 stars. I really like the color scheme. It looks like the set that is the one that Disguise spent most of his time on.

Modern city: 4 out of 5 stars. Good balanced colors, tight drawings.

Rocky Greenland: 3 out of 5 stars. The author tried it’s best, but imho the design is too messy. Bad shading on the rocks and more things like that.

Green Matrix: 2 out of 5 stars.
It doesn’t hurt my eyes, but it’s boring.

Alien homeland: too much colors. They don’t fit together. Shading is bad. 2,5 out of 5 stars.

If I see this one more time, BunnyElmer will be given punishment status for a while.

Tip: instead of 8 bad tilesets spend your time on one tileset that is really good.

If you want to chat about it, use the forums.. there are enough topics about it..

Please use n/a reviews. Within a few days I will change all those ratings to n/a. These levels should not be rated.

I have changed all the ratings to N/A. I will do the same with all memorial levels.[This review has been edited by Fquist]

JJ tublear, NinjaUR, personal attacks are not a good subject to post about so soon after this attack.

You have my compassion too, Americans. But, however nice a gesture this is, levels should be rated for their quality and not for their goal, as it would mess up the site forever.(like.. memorial levels would make up the top of the charts..)

They are rating your levels. Stop attacking the raters.

And actually, we must compare your levels. How can we rate otherwise?

Fine, if you want to keep receiving bad ratings and not listen to good advice, that’s fine with me.

I would not be so sure about the part, “awesome looking”.

Eyecandy: 4/10

The eyecandy is almost nonexistant. The author did put in a few different tiles and some flowers, but there are many rough edges and eyecandy bugs. Also, only layer 4 and 8 are used. Please! put in a background at least. If you can’t design one, learn to or steal it from the official carrottus/easter levels.

Design: 5/10

3 pathways, that’s all the level has. Try to put more roads. Don’t let them all start on one point, but let them intersect, etcetera. Some goodies are not spread but put into big piles. Try not to do that.

Additional notes:

You shouldn’t have put in easter.j2b. It’s one megabyte, and that for only one level using it. That is waste of space and memory. Downloaders have to wait longer, etc etc..

Conclusion: 4.5/10

Next time, put in some more effort.. I may be harsh, but I wish you nothing but luck, as I enjoy seeing (good) levels. Try to improve, so many people may gasp at your levels. :P

Design: 6/10

There is some good design. For the rest it is not very challenging. The idea could been used better..

Eyecandy: 5/10

At the start the eyecandy is okay. Especially for a hard set like Inferno. Unfortunately, it gets worse later on.. Don’t rush your levels! Also, use layer 3 more to cover up hidden entrances. When you pass through one you can see the sides of Jazz/Spaz. Put in more tiles around the entrance cover up tiles to avoid that.

Conclusion: 5.5/10

The author could have put somewhat more effort into the eyecandy department, even with a hard set like inferno.
The idea is good. It could have been used better tough, and more challenging.
So.. Good luck. You’ve made a good start.[This review has been edited by Fquist]

Xan gets low status for abusing our site. We provide this site to you in generosity, cheaters don’t deserve that.

Someone probably made a review and then deleted it. Funfull.

This level has a great mood and very good eyecandy. It also is very original. I thought I saw all the race obstacles already, but newspaz managed to think up some new.

Donut plains was by onag, I believe?

You can also flood the screen without it. And probably it doesn’t really take much more effort then using this program. Just do ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)ta(enter)

Overall a good program. The layout looks kind of cramped, but for the rest it can be a usefull tool(especially for jdc officials. ;-))

Megacal and Megasaz have been given low status for cheating the level system more then once.

Sorry guys, try not to open double accounts or tell your friends to sabotage the downloads.

A very old, cool levelpack. I remember the levels were quite fun to play.

Battle Arena: bad eyecandy..the tiles were variated a lot, but layers were barely used.
Good open design. Is it done on purpose that most of the level is built so that it tries to send you upwards?

Syntax’s Dungeon: Pretty much the same really.. under-average eyecandy, but neat design.

Free for all: one of my favorite syntax levels. The design is awesome. It’s circular, and very fun to play. The eyecandy is good. It still doesn’t use layers, but it looks like it was taken care of better. It doesn’t bother me this time.

Out of This World: Again quite nifty design. Good use of lightning.

Seaside skirmish: A small level with good design. Eyecandy is nothing special.

Sunken Warehouse: some might remember this level from jdc. Very neat circular design, and very fun to play. The eyecandy again isn’t spectacular.. the level has quite some bugs.

Deserted tunnels: design is good. Eyecandy is better. The bg layers are a little full, but the effect is nice

Overall: a pack containing very well designed levels. I don’t care that much for the eyecandy because these levels are designed so well and are so fun to play..

Eyecandy: There is a good amount of eyecandy. There are some places with very repetitive tile placement tough.

Design: The design surely is okay. Not too many enemies, not too little. Bad point: you can sometimes jump over entire areas with enemies. I like the use of the lightning. The design is pretty original at times.

A readme file was included. That is a good thing.

A pretty good level overall. Good eyecandy, good design. I only found the background(=somewhat non-existant) a little dull.
