Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Well, it’s buggy. An obvious rush job that is flawed so much that it is unusable.

Thank you ladies and gentlemen, and goodbye.

hmmm ok

[Fraudulent rating clearance. ~cooba]

Shame that the level sucks. :/
The tileset idea is pretty awesome

Cool.

Another great lvl by Sacrush. i like the layout a lot, the monster idea is great. The Gameplay and EC are both really good. Not much else to say

Best tileset ever!

It looks ok I guess but it isn’t very useable. It lacks diagonals and has very little EC tiles other than in the BG.

I think that PJ and Birdie should of had a review for this lvl,i think it is very good. I like the BG alot, it looks like light polllution. The gameplay is solid, but i found the bottom part a bit annyoing with the celeing springs, but that adds to the challenge. The layout is long,but its original.

nice Eigus!

I haven’t yet seen a lot of work from PurpleJazz, neither reviewed any of his previous work yet. This pack though grabbed my attention, since it is about ‘legends’ and is worth reviewing(not meaning his other work wouldn’t be.)

The levels of this small CTF-pack are generally good-looking. Backgrounds aren’t the main part of it. Instead, the scenery around the sprite-layer has been focused on a lot. That way you are to see only small parts of the backgrounds. There are only few small parts in these levels that look bland at all. As well, the eyecandy doesn’t unrealistically repeat itself, nor confuse your eyes.

Positive is that these levels are pretty practical along the good looks. The author brought some concepts to prevent the levels from being just standard ctf-levels. Sure they aren’t radical gameplay-modifiers, but still they make it all more interesting. Inventing something really big and original for CTF is rather hard these days, and hard trying could often end up into something very complicated. Well, what are those concepts like here? For example ‘Altitude Terrace’ has it’s own exotic base-placement. You are able to capture/score only via underneath. There is mostly excellent flow, and you won’t have any problems to move between areas. What I like, is that the author didn’t go unnecessarily solid, and that way gives some variety between layouts. It might sometimes get a bit too tunnely though.

I find the pickup-choices and placement quite decent and suitable. Somehow, ‘Sunken Realms’ feels like it had too few ammo, probably because of it’s big size. That level, and AT give you starting ammo/powerups, that you better not waste though. Mainly each level is about one single full energy carrot that you must control. Two of them do contain minor carrots as plan B’s for injured players. One way is added necessarily to reduce annoying camping, but ‘Doomed Citadel’ should be modified a bit. It is possible to purposally get stuck into the ceiling-wall easily there. However, practically it does happen only for very unfortunate players. So good, so far.

Well, my thoughts about this pack…again? It is a decent pack offering some variety. I was hoping for a few levels more, since they were that neat. What was good, and what wasn’t as good in overall? I found eyecandy enhancing the entertainment of the levels greatly, being probably the best part. Gameplay was decent, but could have been better, just as pickups. I recommend this download for people, and nominate it to be up for the download of the month. Good job Purplejazz!

Time to boost my review rating!

Sigh. Why do people upload this junk?

Complains right off the bat
This is a list of thinks that are going to make your rating do down right now.
1: Tileset name is to long
2: Black isn’t replaced
3:Lots of tiles looked ripped.
There. You’ve lost 2 points and I haven’t even started the review.

Tiles
Most of these tiles are garbage. All of them are bad quality and black isn’t replaced. A lot of the tileset is made of up Doom characters which like some people said, are useless. There are slopes and stuff but I hardly care. There’s a large portion of tiles that are ripped some somewhere along with the letters. Even the riped stuff has been modified to look horrible. I think some of it is supposed to be destroyed furniture, but they don’t even come close to resembling anything like that. The mountains also looked riped and the background the same thing.
Overall, bad tiles because there horrible quality and a lot of it is ripped without credit.
1/10

Animations
the main animations come from the doom characters, but there’s sow few flames they all look bad. Only thing that looks good is the flames.
1/10

Pallet Events
Won’t rate because most beginners don’t even know about them. But non work.

Mask
Auto mask nuff said.
1/10

Usability
Normally this is reusability, but this tileset is so bad it’s barley usable at all. Not much tiles at all and the doom characters are useless.
1/10

Final score: 4/10 -2=2/10
Score: 1

DR? No. Spend more time and read some tutorials. And a warning to all level makers. If you use this tileset, I will slap you. (JK moderators)

Well, I already knew that. Congratz though, since you seemed to figure it out on your own as well. I personally never use it as fog, but instead ‘fire’ and change the red all the way to five.

Blue base has a big advantage when it comes to position, once you’re at the top you can always get to blue base easier and faster. Also, there are too many carrots, in my opinion! Plus I never seem to win in this one, but that’s probably not level-related :(

P.S.: I love the music <3

lol, nice. :D

i highly recommend downloading this my friends

It doesn’t have vikings :( but still it’s a very great tileset that comes with cool example levels :D

Good lord, this is probably the most overrated level ever. No offense.

The flow is a bit awkward, the placement is questionable and the eyecandy could use some more depth.
I like the theme though.

Not bad. You’re certainly improving at lightning-fast speeds.

Gj.. :D

Great eycandy, much of variety… super amtosfere… Best think, i think, are rabbits :D The backgrounds are impressive. And only 150 colours used! :D:D Nice
