Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

My head hurts from playing this… lol
I really don’t want to go into all the details but basically Jungle levels were good (5,7-6,5) but the other levels were very uninteresting and got low notes (3-4). So basically I decided to make an average and give this pack a 5.

Download recommendation: yes if you like non stop shoot ‘em up packs.

Oh and there’re no save posts… so you better watch out not to repeat the whole level from the beginning.

Daniel.

I’m too lazy to give this a full review with averages and everything, but I’ll try to give a general idea.
This pack is great. It’s far better then any of the author’s previous works, as in it’s playable, it isn’t a ton of hurt events, and it’s not a tileset.
The eyecandy is good. Other then the levels using the author’s own tileset (Spaceport, I think), it was all executed well. I saw no major tile bugs.
The design is also good. There are a few parts I didn’t like, such as the “puzzles” level (whatever you may think, hiding a crate behind layer 3 is NOT a puzzle), and I didn’t want to have to do Quite so much backtracking in the third and fourth levels.
Gameplay is good, difficult but not too difficult (no save points, but who cares?), and with good enemy/weapon/item placement.
The plot is followed through the levels and not abandonded to go off chasing dragons or anything like that. It is helped along by cut scenes, information given to you by “Jungle babe”, and frequent appearances of the Magic Cat him(/her?)self.
If you like single player, go ahead, download this. If you don’t like single player, don’t download this, because it is single player.

Yea, but I’m not so lazy this time, so I decided to make bigger review.

DESIGN
Well the idea is quite good and interesting, but the puzzles and uninteresting places, and the level 2, I didn’t find the crate for the computer room, I needed to cheat, few times. Ouch!
7/10

EYECANDY
Ya say eyecandy is bad in first levels, I don’t think so, since those two first levels are from the Jungle Rabbit demo, heh. Eyecandy is good in first levels, and it comes better in the future levels.
9/10

ORIGINALITY
What could I say, oh, this is from demo.
5/10

GAMEPLAY
Wow! This is almost the best thing in this episode, but the level sizes are quite unbalanced so it takes 1 point off.
8/10

INCLUDING
Good Ya included all, and the level are named well.
10/10

PICKUP AND ENEMY PLACEMENT
Lots of enemies. Doh, I played on hard. Pickups are well placed.
8/10

EFFECTS + OTHER
I just give it 8. It’s ok.
8/10

+ or – extra points:
-2 points: Should have a little bit more carrots, and SAVEPOINTS!! When I die, it’s boring to start from the start always.

Overall 7.5714286 Rank:Medium level
Download recommend: yes, but it has lot of trouble-solving, and little hard too.

Argh! What the…? Why marquee remove? Really odd, well if thou don’t like it then I don’t keep it, ok k plz thx.

In The Begining…

From the start I could see it was going to be difficlut but I think it may have turned out a bit to difficult. I always play on hard and I expect a chalenge but you shouldn’t place a ridiculoius amount of enemys on hard.

Creativity Is Sky High…

lots of elements were exelent. Like revistiting the same places twice at different times. And the story was something new, It wasn’t another Devan wants revenge go and stop him, oh no. It was about a weird cat who was bad for some reason (what was so bad about him?).

Levels good and the bad…

Level desing was pretty bland and boring in some places but great in others. The tree climbing level was repedetive, boring and unfun. But there is plenty to enjoy here. Especily if you have been waiting for another lengthy single player pack (not 2 levels claiming to be epsiode).

To wrap it up…

Pros
-Fun new original plot
-Great re-vist levels idea
-Some really creative levels (puzzels, helping out all the Evas and flying to the top of airbases)

Cons
-To much enemys in some cases
No -way to get out of spike pits (I usually put a trampoline next to the spikes so the player can atleast get back up)
-Puzzels can get frustrating

Final Verdict

A recomended download great mix of difficulty, just a bit to hard in some places.[This review has been edited by Sun Fun Dude][This review has been edited by Sun Fun Dude]

First of all, I must say that I like this uploaad A LOT more than the previous ones by this author (not to mention the author’s previous somewhat questionable reviews by “relatives.”) Regardless, this is quite a good pack and definitely an improvement over some of the author’s previous works. The only level I really did not care for highly was the puzzle one, generally because the puzzle was not much of a puzzle at all – more the luck of finding something. Now on to the reviewity.

TILESET/TILESET USE: Tileset use is good enough all around, except in the levels that use the author’s own tileset, which is something Space-y. It definitely looks like the author actually put quite a bit of thought into eyecandy this time, and it came out well. Nicely done.
Pros: Looks very nice.
Cons: The Space levels using the author’s own tileset are of questionable eyecandy quality.
Rating: 8.0

WEAPON/ITEM/ENEMY PLACEMENT: Weapon, item, and enemy placement was quite strong. There were not excessive hurt events like in the author’s previous levels, but there were enough things to keep this pack challenging enough to hold interest.
Pros: Nice placement.
Cons: Nothing that really sticks out in the cons column.
Rating: 8.2

ORIGINALITY: I have no idea what this being a demo has to do with originality, but oh well. Simply put, this pack features nothing amazingly original, though it does have a few cutscenes. The plot was, happily, not abandoned mid-game in order to stray off to search for something else (more of an accomplishment than one might think) and everything was well-crafted. Not extrodinarily new or anything, but adequate.
Rating: 7.5

GAMEPLAY/DESIGN: All in all, there really is not much to say here. Definitely improved over the author’s previous less-than-amazing works. For instance, in other levels by him, there were quite a few unneeded hurt events. Not so in this pack. Well done.
Pros: Good gameplay.
Cons: Nothing huge.
Rating: 8.0

REPLAY VALUE/FUN FACTOR: The cutscenes, along with the fairly good gameplay, make this not a bad second play in addition to the first. There is nothing ultra-creative about this level, so there isn’t a huge amount of incentive to play it twice, but it is still solid the second time. Well done.
Pros: A good pack.
Cons: Nothing that boosts the replay value, specifically.
Rating: 7.7

OVERALL (not an average): While it is always nice to get high marks in everything, I think the most important victory is bettering your own skills and improving your own level making abilities. Satan is obviously doing so, as this is a certain improvement over his previous levels. The jury still seems to be out on this level – DanX obviously does not like it, and Violet really seems to. I think I will take a stake between Sun Fun Dude and Violet on this one. I do not think this is anything amazing, but definitely a vast improvement over previous works. And that is possibly the best achievement out there. Nicely done.

I played again, auw my bag hurts.

9.7[This review has been edited by Somebody]

it is reuploaded and all the bugs are removed and in some levels there are more carrots and SAVEPOINTS.

##Satan##

Well it must have been a hard work! 22 big levels full of enemies and bosses. The most beautiful thing was: in this level, the head enemy was not Devan. A magic cat! Great idea. Not a classical story of Jazz-Eva and Devan! It’s good.
The level design was also good the difficulty was high. There were much enemies, less carrots! It could be better if there would be more carrots!
There was a storyline, two new enemies (like lego man and magic cat!=)
In some levels (One of the jungle levels can be an example) You have to pass the area and survive only. It could be better if you could make less fighting levels.
I have to say that this pack was good! So here’s a 7.7

This is long, intersting story. Level’s are good in medium size, but some are very simple like first, second, third end fourth. Others are more atractive and very playful, but there are not enought carrots!
Storyline is cool, because There are one cool person -> Green Puzzel Man!. I like this guy, because is very fuuny. Also Magic Cat is very ogrinal person, because I didn’t see any levels with storyline with him/it. But last battle with him/it can by more hard and more attractive…
And remember: USE BIG TEXT
