    First I was thinking how typical the sonic sets look like, then I decided that I liked this one,
    but it’s so scarry that it has SO MANY duplicated tiles in it, this set could be much much smaller if you removed the tiles that already are in it ones.
    I remember these levels used to have allot of animations, however you only included one. I think you should definitely update this with a version, that has less tiles few more animations from the original, working textured background and organise the tiles a bit so you know what it’s used for (you could put all of the animations together)

    I wish i could rate this good but this tileset is way too big for the amount it contains

    Oh! I just noticed it’s a tileset for 1.24 only, another reason to make an update so that it’s good for 1.23 [This review has been edited by Pyromanus]

    Well, this level and tileset is certainly a mixed bag… Let’s take a look at the items by themselves.

    The Tileset: Well, you certainly made an effort to connect tiles together… unfortunately it looks like you ripped out each 128×128 block wholesale and then cut out blank spaces. Eases level making, but gives WAY too many redundant tiles. Masking is good, but there were some masking problems. And would it be too much to ask to have those small propellers rotate?

    The Level: Pretty good, though I’ve seen better. Putting the passages in from the original should’ve been easy, and does the event ‘One Way’ mean anything to you? at least you prepared for someone falling and had them teleport to a ‘safe spot’. One minor gripe I had is the part on the outside of the ship right before you hit the button to fight the boss wasn’t included.

    The Music: Ouch, ouch, ouch… it was almost painful to listen to the music. It sounds like you opened a MIDI in ModPlug, and saved the result. Would it have killed you to loop it beforehand?

    Despite these flaws, this isn’t the worst tileset I’ve seen, and it might see another use or two… Based on its merits alone, it gets a 2, but you get 4 for effort.

    THis is, in my opinion a fairly good level for a first timer.

    I do not care for the tileset what so ever. All I care is what the level looks like, so I cant rate the tile set.

    The level its self is very good. It has stayed close to the original. Although some spots have been cut out, I am hopeing that this can be fixed in an update, at which rate I will give it an higher rateing.- 7.5

    Visuals are not bad for a first timer either, although most is just in a set positin. I am sure these will be fixed in a further release too. At least I am hopeing- 6.5

    The music is some thing that dosent bother me because I usualy have any game music mute so I can play my own. BUt I will act as if I do care. To be honest, the music dosent bother me, and I have heard worse.-7

    The layout of the level is rather a no brainer, because it has already been made by sonic team, but I do like how the wepons and ammunition is layed out. But it could be better.-7.4

    All together, I think this level has some potential to be better than what it is now, and should be updated, at which point I will give it a better rating. Over all- 7.2

    That’s interesting that you got the acual music file from sonic 2. I went to site you put up and I can’t figure out how to get music file in a format suitable for jazz 2. Can you tell me how you did it?
