Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

runs

Im d ing it now, but what is it? is it a EXE? And how did u do the zombie rabbits?

Well, I’m not going to rate this, because for one thing I’ll take everyone’s word that it’s bad and not lower your score anymore :)

Has anyone considered maybe giving folks a grace-period if their first levels suck? I mean just because they’ll probably get over that by level 3 (if they try) and because otherwise you’re just lower the score for what may end up to be a wonderful creator. Just a thought.

Anyway, Tobi, I’d just like to encourage you as well to keep on trying. It’s very important that you hang in there. First levels are typically poor, so don’t feel bad at all. I can tell you all right now, if I hadn’t recieved extensive help from a couple of people when I was making my first level, it would be butt ugly :p (I know because I remember it before I sought help ;)

Heh, I still make lousey levels NOW :) I’ve got a CTF level here that is solid, complete, made good use of the tileset, is fully functional, and about the suckiest CTF level I’ve ever seen in my life.

Point is Tobi, you’ll probably throw out a few stinkers even when you have a full grasp of JCS, so don’t feel bad about that. The important thing now is to concentrate on simply learning to create levels well in a technical sense. Then worry about how good the levels are design-wise. I’d suggest making a few throw-away levels just to test various JCS elements to get the hang of them.

Anyway, thank’s for your time.

And also, the download wasn’t a total loss…I didn’t have the tileset before and I actually kinda liked the music :)

Keep on JCSing,
~Buster

There’s not much in the tileset, but first tilesets aren’t usually good anyway. So i would give it a 5.

This has been done on J2C. Anyway it’s nice to have it here as well.[This review has been edited by Newspaz]

The idea to this level is ok and all, but it ‘feels’ small and it lacks variation. The only guns and ammo are toaster and bouncer.

The levels are hardly different and the only thing I could find was that one has digonigal islands and the other horizontal and verticle islands.

Im afraid I cannot give this any more than a 6.

The background is bad, wrong tiles are used as paralaxing (written right???) and the level ‘feels’ too small.

Also, the second (ctf) level doesnt much differ from the battle version, exept for two ctf bases of course…

Thats what they all say, and personally I think Stiletto has no right of speech,but thats not the matter here :)

we did make part of it ourself
and the thigs we copied we needed for the level

Just let people test your Beta Version for u. Like Flash, I don’t do beta’s. And Stiletto’s advice is well placed here: Make your own.

Not a good idea to post betas. I like it more if you only post the full version, cos it’s more a surprise then. I’ll review the full version if it’s here.

Hey jour just copying things from The taverne
Cant jou make a own tileset
without copying Things from other tileset
Thank jou ;-)

I love it! Maybe it’s just a bit too long and hard for a race level. This can do as a challenging single player level as well. If you think racing is all about speed, play this level to change your mind!

A levelpack consisting of small lvls. Now what’s good and what isn’t?

The eyecandy looks good at most parts but there are some parts where it looks awful. For instant the third room in the castle level. However I like the background u used in Electric Force.

The levels are very small and don’t play very well. U could have taken more time for that.

The weapon placing is quite messy. Powerups everywhere and at a real short distance from eachother.

My conclusion: the levels look good at most places, but not everywhere. The playability is quite hard cos of the room u have and the placement of things. There are also a lot of dead ends.
5 looks good for this one.

A tip: Take more time to build your lvls. Your style is fine, but next time spend more time. If u make anoher level, I can test it for u before u post…Think about it.

I did it myself. It was his first tileset and I rated Tobi’s thing also with n/a. So I think it’s fair to do the same with Chaos’ thing.

Because webjump stopped their activities jkm.jumpfun.com doesn’t work anymore. Here’s the NEW link to the JKM-clan homepage:

Until now, i had only downloaded levels with a good rating. I wanted to see why people give some levels bad ratings. Well, NOW I KNOW. The eyecandy is bad, i got stuck a lot in the second level, i couldn’t find the exit in that same level, and if you’re gonna put in enemies, you’d better build single player levels.

Ver small and empty lvl. Didn’t use the stuff to decorate the lvl and this tileset is way overused. just 2 standard for such a “bigname”

Another GREAT lvl by Martin. Looks ace, plays ace, what more to say? Just download ALL of his lvls.
The best CTF AND the best lvl using the Haunted tiles. The reason y it’s TSF only is because the tile isn’t available for 1.23.

is this supposed to be a clanpack?
if yes, i think some of the paths are way too narrow and with many ppl in yer server this could get crowded. in clan lvls..open fields..anyway lets get to a real rating:

looks: looks pretty standard, bad eyecandy in my opinion could have been much better
5.8/10

playability: worse. many pits and holes, not to mention the dead path in the castle lvl, what if u are running to get away from an enemy and u get there? no way back! could have been much better too.
5.7/10

weapons: now this is prettt good, wherever u go, u always get to grab some weapons, as well as some stash.

6.4/10

overall, a 6. i dont know why all ppl give it such high ratings. if they would just play the lvls and really rate it, not just give it 8’s cos its a well known person (and this is no offence, its just true).

this is a pretty good example of the what i call – lets give old friend a 9, and new ppl no chance (dont ask me, i really think this should change!)

i dont care if ppl go flaming me
cmon! give new creators a break
they most of the time create better lvls, and they dont get a chance to get wellknown

>:(
