Hehehehe. This is a joke.

I’ve made, what, fifteen levels? One of them is a hotel. ALL of them are better than this.

Use a better tileset, play around with the level.

IMAGINE THIS IS THE LAST JJ2 LEVEL ON EARTH.
DON’T BLOW IT.

This is my favorite tileset because it has many cool tiles and you can make very good eyecandy with it .The tileset is like a rabbit heaven with angels :)

Good job Agama 9.7

This level isn’t too much aside from a showcase of JCS tricks. However, not only all of these have been discovered before, but a fair amount of them uses outdated methods of creating the tricks. (I looked in JCS)

Besides the quirks, there’s hardly any gameplay than just getting to the exit. The eyecandy is moderately decent in some places, but overall it’s just bland and lacking, and the mez01 (ooold) tileset doesn’t help it, either.

There are some really cool effects in this level but the level is passworded so you can’t see how it’s done.

This is one of those levels that’s bad enough to download just for sheer laughs. The two part test is supposedly testing your sidekicking (like that takes any skill) and heli-earing ability which are so easy to beat any animate lifeform could do them. Not to rub it in but I beat the ‘sidekick’ test using jazz’s heli ears too =D

I apologize for the rude comments but this level is seriously amusing.

Witam wszystkich zainteresowanych!!
Hello to all of you who are interested!!

Eyecandy

Wiec jezeli chodzi o eyecandy to nie znajdziecie go tutaj =D i na tym by mozna zakonczyc recenzje na temat ec ale cooba pewnie by sie zdenerwowal wiec jeszcze cos napisze (Y).W lvlu nie ma zadnych animacji, jezeli chodzi o warswty to sa wykorzystane tylko dwie (layer 4 i 8). Calosc jest zbudowana z jednego klocka (no dobra z dwoch), grubosc scian wynosi 32px,a jezeli chodzi o te diamenty to wygladaja one kiepsko (same gem ringi i purple gemy)
Actually, as for eyecandy, you won’t find any ec here =D and this would be the end of the description but cooba would get annoyed so i’ll spit out more (Y). This level has no animations at all and uses only two layers. the whole level is built using only one tile (well ok, two), all the walls are 32 pixels thick, and the diamonds (gem rings and purple gems) at the end look overdone and kind of lackluster.

Gameplay

Wiec autorka miala racje mowiac ze test jest krotki bo ma tylko 2 levele z czego pierwszy musimy pokonac kickiem a drugi kopterkiem (brawa dla tej dziewczyny), a jezeli dojdziemy do konca to mamy bardzo trudny naprawde trudny wybor amianowicie mozemy grac od poczatku lub zagrac w drugi lvl (ktorego nie ma)
The author was right about the test being short, becuase it has only two levels, one beatable with the sidekick and the second with copter ears (congratulations), and once we reach the end, we stand before the extremely hard choice: we can either restart the level or play the next one which doesnt even exist.

Summary
  • tralalala
  • lol

Overall
Najbardziej zaciekawil mnie rmx, ktory wg autorki jest jej, pewnie tak uwaza bo zmienila nazwe (nie ladnie krasc rzeczy od czlonkow IC >D)
The thing which interested me the most is the sugar rush remix (which isnt even the music used by the level), which the author claims as hers by changing its name… not nice to steal stuff from IC >D

I have played some bad test levels before, but this one was the worst. I’m sorry but this was way too short. There was only 2 levels. The eyecandy looks like it was rushed, no animated tiles and only Layers 4 & 8 were used. The Layer 8 BG looked boring. After completing the 2 tests, I was in a room with loads of Gems.
You also included a Sugar Rush Remix in the zip, it’s good music but this was NOT your remix. I couldn’t see the point of that since the music wasn’t used in the level at all.
Another thing that puzzles me is that this has been submitted as a Treasure Hunt level. Huh?
This review may be short, but I don’t think there was really much else to review in this test.

SUMMARY

GOOD POINTS:

*None :(

BAD POINTS

*Bad Layer 8 Background
*Only 2 very easy levels
*No animated tiles used
*Only Layers 4 & 8 used

RATING: 1.0

What to say…
For starters the story was a good idea, but you should have included it more into your levels.

THe basic levels for each element weren’t the best. THey were eather,
A: Too short
B: Too confusing
C: Too many ways to die without being able to do anything about it (Ex: First Fire Level)
The best thing about your basic levels was the background, that was arwsome. They matched perfictly with what the level was about.

The bosses where also good, except the Fire boss, and the Rocket T. as the last boss. The Rocket T. glitched a few times I faced him, then when he would run he would just go stright. This made it way too hard to catch up if you skew up even once.

The other bosses were made extreamly well. The envierment combined with the boss’s powers made the final levels a fun Challenge.

However, the levels have cool effects which would be great to look over, just to learn how things are done, but sence you put a password on them then there not worth downloading.

Overall, the levels aren’t worth downloading. If you could just download the bosses, I would recommend that, but the whole packege isn’t worth it.

Redo the basic levels, less complexsity, and more stright forward (plus make them longer if you can). I would like to see a remake if you ever choose to remake it.

1. J2O Downloads Page

The J2O downloads page for this utility is dressed up well enough. The simple yet straightforward title “Express JJ2 Starter” catches the eye immediately and gives the impression of a handy tool. The Level description doesn’t lose out either – it has the three parts all magicians need for a good trick.

The pledge – “my first own programmed program”
The turn – “my fisrt[sic] program”
The prestige – “I wish you a lot of fun!”

$ÏMØÑ summarises the features of his program between the pledge and the turn as an “Easy Starter”. A clever phrase, which immediately reinforces that the starter is both “easy” and “express”, an excellent use of alliteration. Not to mention that the turn is a rephrasing of the pledge, which is repetition put to good use. Overall, the downloads page should quite appealing for the general audience.

However, the author should still have checked for spelling and grammatical errors beforehand, so points will unfortunately have to be deducted.

J2O Downloads Page: 1.7 / 2.

2. The zip file

The author did not explain how to unzip the file. As a result, I downloaded winzip, which was full of malware and my computer crashed.

The zip file: 0 / 2.

3. Installer

By far the most interesting feature to talk about. Upon running the installer, you are greeted with a logo of a fire burning the words “Express JJ2 Starter”, as if to foreshadow your intent to incinerate the utility. Also, this section should be easier to handle for the general audience because of its better command of English.

Like any good Japanese horror flick director, $ÏMØÑ shines with his use of scare tactics. He threatens the end user to “read the IMPORTANT.txt ;D” or the program will not work.

The author chooses a well-crafted directory, which shows he is up-to-date with the latest technical trends. By keeping in an uncommonly named folder, he ensures it stays safe from any virus/trojan that attempts to erase “C:\Program Files\”. Strongly suggested that you keep the default directory.

Like the threat before, the IMPORTANT.txt comes back to scare you. But this time, it isn’t really reinforced, in that you can click on Next without reading it at all. Points deducted.

By using a shareware install creator rather than the de facto NSIS, $ÏMØÑ once again declares his heterodoxy to the world. Even before seeing the program we can see that this was very well planned from the beginning.

Installer: 1.8 / 2.

4. Program

Nothing to complain here. It wins because it uses C++ rather than VB. It wins more because it uses the command prompt rather than a GUI. Additionally, it does exactly what it was created to do. But more on that later.

WELCOME!

A professional feel to the program. Indeed, it even shares contact details for you to send feedback to. The riddle is simple enough to guess, albeit having a disappoint result. For those who wan’t to solve the riddle properly, please skip to the next section.

=-= START OF SPOILERS =-=

Please write here the Number (before the Version):

If you noticed carefully, after the contact details, it actually tells you “V. 0.2”. If you haven’t figured it out, that is the version string! Of course, the “Version” itself is “0.2” so the answer to the riddle is “V.”. Granted, it really isn’t a “Number”, but it seems to be the right answer, which closes the starter as intended.

=-= END OF SPOILERS =-=

Solving the riddle gave me a euphoric feeling not unlike the one felt after completing QoB. That alone warrants a perfect score for this section.

Of course, there’s plenty of technical stuff to dicuss here, but it all pales in comparison. (I’m talking about the system() command abuse, the getc() abuse and so on)

Program: 2 / 2.

5. Uninstaller

If you think of the downloads page as the pledge, the installer and program as the turn, then this is definitely THE PRESTIGE. Once you’ve installed this tool, there is no way your fingers won’t be tempted to click on this. In a style never been attempted by any other program before, it is designed to be completely irresistable – a true classic and masterpiece.

In fact, the only reason anyone downloads this at all is because this grand finale exists! A perfect 2.0 is not enough to rate the usefulness of this tiny underrated uninstaller.

Uninstaller: 2.2 / 2.

Other comments

I strongly feel that the IMPORTANT.txt should be placed within the zip itself rather than the installer. Maybe place it in both. Also, I do not know whether the author intended this, but you do not have type the numbers one by one, i.e. (“1” enter “4” enter “n” enter). Instead, you can string it all together, i.e. “14n” enter.

Final score

J2O Downloads Page: 1.7 / 2
The zip file: 0 / 2
Installer: 1.8 / 2
Program: 2 / 2
Uninstaller: 2.2 / 2
=========================
Total: 7.7/10
=========================

EDIT: Not bad for a first program!
(Parodical rating (7.7) removal. Very funny. Try mentioning what does the program actually does, reacting more honestly to the weird stuff, and explaining the problems you mentioned in passing. ~Violet)
