An edited level…

No. Don’t do this. Don’t edit levels and then upload them to J2O.

And don’t make levels for multiple purposes. Just make a battle or a CTF level or something.

Look, it takes some skill to edit official levels. This is not evident in this.
Is this a Battle level? Any level in existance can be called a battle level, as its only requirement is at least one start position.
Is this a good Battle level? Not at all. It’s extremely linear, has bad ammo placement, and it’s hard to get around.
Is this a CTF level? I think so. There’s a blue base, anyway. There might be a red base, but I got stuck trying to find it and gave up.
Is this a good CTF level? Not at all. There’s only one (basically) path, it’s hard to navigate, and it’s too hard to go from red to blue.
Is this a Treasure Hunt level? In the loosest definition of the term. One secret contains like all 100 gems, and there are a few other hidden in other secrets, or left over from the original.
Is this a good Treasure Hunt level? Not at all. I think you already can tell why.
Is this a Cooperative level? I doubt it. The author removed all the enemies, for a start, so you just wade through the awful level.
Is this a good Cooperative level? Not at all. It plays terribly, lots of blocks don’t have events for them..
Is this a level with eyecandy? Technically. But the eyecandy seriously sucks.
Is this a level with gameplay? Technically. But it, like the eyecandy, seriously sucks. Same goes with design.
Is this a level with good points? Yes. But they’re rather rare, and I won’t list them.

I suppose I will use a scale similar to Violet’s to rate this level.

Is this a Battle level? Well, yes, you can slap anything together with a start position and call it a battle level. But not all play like true battle levels.

Is this a good Battle level? Linear through and through, so no. Being that it is an edit of a single player level, there is only one path, so it is not much of a battle level, and certainally is not a good one whatsoever.

Is this a CTF level? Similar story to Violet. There is a blue base, but I did not waste my time trying to find the red base. It just was not worth my time. No matter where the other base is located, this just is not a worthwhile level for Capture the Flag.

Is this a good CTF level? No way. There is only one possible path and it feels like a single player level. That is because it is a single player level. It is really too bad they removed the cooperative/single player elements, because that was the only thing going for this level.

Is this a Treasure Hunt level? Sort of, but I can not say that it was intended to specifically be a treasure hunt level. Sure, there are gems (about a hundered) left over from the single player game type, plus a few that the author took the liberty of adding, but not enough to make a good treasure hunt level. Or a playable one for that matter.

Is this a good Treasure Hunt level? Not in the least bit. There are not enough gems to actually make a worthwhile game and there certainally are not enough to make it good. Oh, yes, and you will have to take the annoyingly long time that it takes to find the end of this level, if you actually bother playing that long.

Is this a Cooperative level? No! The one thing it had going for it, the single player type, has been completely removed. Read: all enemies have been deleted. Sure, I suppose it could fit the most loose definitions, but it certainally is not a “real” cooperative level.

Is this a good Cooperative level? No. The eventless blocks look ugly like the Heavens, there are no enemies, and play is one hundered percent boring. Avoid this mode at all costs.

Is this a level with eyecandy? Every level has eyecandy. This level included. But what eyecandy is there is really, really bad. Like the event-lacking blocks.

Is this a level with gameplay? Sort of. There is gameplay, but it is not good gameplay. For any mode except single player, this level has terrible flow. And playing in single player is pointless, since all of the enemies have been removed. D’oh.

Is this a level with good points? There are plenty of good points. But no where near enough to even fall into the average category. The author demonstrates some knowledge of JJ2 (like in the description, albeit saying that something that works for 1.23 will work for 1.20 is redundant.) The level itself is just awful.

What are you going to rate this? 2.

Will this level get a download recommendation from you? No way. SO STOP ASKING ME QUESTIONS, DIEMBODIED VOICE.
