Description

It took me forever to finally finish it. It could be better, though. Sorry, but I accidently saved it to TSF again. I\\\‘m an idiot for keeping TSF. Anyways, enjoy!

Edit: A few things fixed, it should work now.

A pretty nice level. Good layout, not too big, reasonnable weapon placement… I lik it.

But two big minus points: 1-you placed an enemmy.
2-you placed food(though it could be handy to get a sugar rush, but that’s not funny in battles)

This would be a good level for an online server.

It took quite a while for me to convert this from 1.24 to a somewhat unstable 1.23, but I did it. And I suppose it was worth it. This is not a bad level at all. In fact, I must say I like it. Still, it is not the best.

TILESET/TILESET USE: The tileset used was Blade’s somewhat overused “Wastelands” tileset. This tileset has clasically looked somewhat bland in color, and it still does in this level. Frankly, eyecandy is by far not the best aspect of this level. Some may like the metallic look of it, but I can not really say that I do. As for bugs – this level does not have many, and none of them are noteworthy enough to make the eyecandy quality worse. Overall, good, but nothing spectuacular eyecandy and tileset use.
Pros: Very few tile bugs
Cons: Uninteresting eyecandy.
Rating: 6.7

WEAPON/ITEM PLACEMENT: Weapon and item placement was good enough. There was not all that much ammo in some parts of the level and, like with many battle levels, the main concentration of placements involved powerups. There was not too much clumping going on, which is a good thing. Some areas, however, had too little ammo, and I thought that there was generally a lack of non-powerup ammo (even if it is not used all that often, it is still nice to see well-placed basic ammo). Food was also used, though not in sufficient quantity to cause sugar rushes.
Pros: Placement is generally well-done and thought over.
Cons: If you dislike food, you might object to this level. Possibly too little basic ammo.
Rating: 7.2

ORIGINALITY: This level is not that original. The theme is pretty much what the tileset provides – a wasteland-like factory – and has been done many times. Eyecandy was nothing original, nor was gameplay. While it was somewhat enjoyable, there was just nothing new or fascinating in either gameplay or eyecandy.
Rating: N/A

GAMEPLAY/DESIGN: This level disagrees with me for some reason. I am just not sure why. The flow of battle levels is no where near as important as it is in CTF levels. Still, it is generally a good thing to have a nice flow in a battle level. And, for one reason or another, I did not feel as if this level had a very good flow. Layout also did not seem as anything special to me. This is all relative, and the level did not have that bad of a layout or a flow, but for some reason it did not agree with me in several respects. Regardless, the build quality of this factor is worth a 6.7.
Pros: Pretty well done.
Cons: The flow just felt odd.
Rating: 6.7

REPLAY VALUE/FUN FACTOR: This level does not offer much to make people play it over and over again. Sure, it is solid and well done, but there isn’t anything INTERESTING that makes people want to play it much. I can see it being hosted a bit, but I doubt it has much staying power.
Pros: Good level, good eyecandy.
Cons: Nothing new.
Rating: 6.7

OVERALL (not an average): This level is not bad, but offers nothing that is very new. It is also 1.24, and therefore deserves to be smacked with fish. Still, it’s worth a download for TSF battle fans or 1.23 battle fans with enough time on their hands and Overlord’s TSF to 1.23 convertor.
Pros: Overall a good level.
Cons: Nothing really amazing.
