Ru><orific tileset tho the masking seems a bit awkward now and then.
I wont rate this cuz its a demo but left from where you start are lotsa blank masked blocks, remove those
First of all, i really appriciate that authors use superb custom tilesets like DethMan’s 7th Lava Fall (btw this is the first major bug: in the readme you thank Jeh for the tileset…).
And the set isn’t used that bad at all: the eyecandy is quite okay in my opinion. Well, there are still some masking/tile errors though. And the foreground layer with the "falling lava" will get very annoying after some minutes!
Now, the bad side: The design of the "Pyramid of Steel Fury" is (slightly below) the average. There are lots of things that i dislike:
Sandglasses (very annoying event i think), Airboards (pretty useless in this level), Hurt events (they will only hurt the server, believe me!) are some examples i found.
The pack also includes a custom music file: i’m not sure if it fits to the atmosphere of DethMan’s "dark, industrial" tileset but it still sounds…um…pretty funny. I’ve heard MODs that were worse.
To sum it up, this is a nice level, mainly because the author tried to use a great tileset and custom music. The design (actually design is the most important part in a level :-) itself is not that good.
I think J2O’s readers could take a look at it. I was very undecided about the rating (5 or 6?). Hey, it’s saturday…very very low six points for you :-)
Good level
But too open Jazz and Lori can justfly to the other base.
Good one!
Keep them coming
We have a pretty below average level here. Design, eye candy and event placement could have been significantly improved… Also contains no new ideas. Semi-good music choice. I feel like decreasing the rating for your comment about ModPlug in the readme. ;-)
Overall I can’t give a download reccomendation for this. Sorry. :-)
This level is good for a first one.
I think the tips Ninja Dodo gave are good ones and hac2k should listen to them.
Not a very good level. i think his other level was better.
P.S Fquist what does spoofing mean?
Good tileset i think
The level is all so a good one!
Good eye-candy.
Remember what AIKO said : No hurt event!
it will only hurt the host of a server
I will give this a 8!
Good Job
P.S If you like this download his new one!
Hmm
Not bad!! ;)
Keep it up Aiko
This level is soo close to BloodBunny’s level it’s uncanny!
There’s a mask’d tile in the lower bottom left corner that
need’s to be taken out. The lava shouldent be so high or
at least be transparent. Ok author creative licence but a
Coin warp next to flag base? Maybe needs more work.
Ok i guess this level is good but it’s no BloodBunny’s Lair. :)
(Unreal music has always been easy to convert to jazz2)
Hey, this is great! Cool level design, thanks to the tilesets. Nice work, Noraa.
Only one little thing to complain, the corners.
All in all, a very nice level…especially for a first one.
Aiko, it seems your old review doesn’t entirely apply to this version, because the version I downloaded DOES include the Mez tileset. As for the mode it’s for, it’s written in the readme that it works best in multiplayer…
Hack2k, here are some tips for your future levels:
- use the other background layers (1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7) and put more decoration/eye-candy in a level.
-think long and hard about the amounts and types of weapons in your level. Finding the perfect balance can realy add to the fun of a level.
-Use tilesets that haven’t been used a million times already.
Good luck.
I fully agree, Fquist. Dont let ‘em mess up this coolish website called J2O!
“i dont see what i have done wrong, apart from send a few messages to people!”
You have sent more then 30 messages to various people, we call that spam.
You have rated perfectly fine levels with immature ratings like 1.0
You have rated your friend’s levels with 10s.
You have tried to make us delete annahilator’s account by spoofing him.
You have rated levels down for simple facts like “the zip is corrupt”.
Enough reasons?
uh, ok.
Whoever said I thought your other tileset was 10x worse?
“I don’t really like this that much, not because of it’s size, but because there was a lack of detail and pretty useless tiles.
Darkwasp (I’m 100% sure this is Annoon), learn to spend time adding a few eye candy and detail tiles, and PLEASE include an example level to a tileset like this.
That’s all I have to say.”
Iced, I’m still waiting for test levels by my five betatesters. I’ve waited 2 months for those levels, and I figured enough’s enough!
Another thing puzzles me. you give this level a 4.5, and my other tileset, witch I think that it is 10x worse than this tileset, a 5! WHY ICED, WHY?
and another thing: I am annoon. Happy Iced?
Ninja’s explanation is very good..the tilesets were created for a very specific purpose, and just don’t serve (at least in a way that makes sense, as far as I can see (:) as regular tilesets for this reason. But that doesn’t make it bad, on the contrary, it’s awesome. (:
“This level will be deleted tomorrow.
Mr plonker has low status, because he spammed j2o. “
i dont see what i have done wrong, apart from send a few messages to people!
Contains some very blocky letters to write the authors (and his clans) names and a few bad colored Wingdings symbols.
There are also some “structures”, that could eventually be useful when making a level. One them is probably a bed :-)
I don’t plan to visit this hotel, thanks (= No download recommendation). Sorry, i just can’t think of a level when looking at this “tileset”. Better include an example level next time :-)
Not much too say here. Very useless tileset containing 20 tiles, most of them are just blabla "font tiles" saying things like "Stuff is good" etc. Very funny. Duh!
Don’t waste your time downloading this. I guess it was meant as a test or something. Sorry (no offense to author!).
P.S.: There is no example level, but well…how could that look like? I have no idea.
i follow the other guys
i really think youre other lvl is better (or less worse) than this one.
the weapons are dotted round the screen in a very strange way, no eyecandy, very VERY basic…
im sorry but i cant recommend this to download.
