Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

EvilMike is beginning to scare me. If I do not rate this, I will be banned from something and I have no idea why. Anywayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyys, this is a more or less good Quake III conversion by PsyBlast, who is “Username”‘s brother. I can not be a judge to how good of a port this is, as I have never played this type of Quake, but I will do my best to rate this as a tileset. All in all, this is a standard conversion. It features many of the tiles one would need to create a basic level and does look like what I would imagine this incarnation of Quake looks like. Much of this import tileset consists of tiles that serve as background eyecandy in Quake. This is okay, and common when there is a port from a game such as this, but it can translate badly when you have no foreground eyecandy in Jazz 2. It is hard for me to give this a full review, so I suppose I will leave it at that or something. I can not lend this a rating, since the person who uploaded it is not who made it (in fact, the person who uploaded it uploaded it from someone who exported it from a game that used someone else’s art…phew). I need more information to give this an actual solid rating of any type, so I will leave this as a N/A both as my official rating and text rating. Still, from what I have seen, it looks good. That is all I have to say for now; I will update this review after extended testing. If everything works as it appears to, nice job. You did a good conversion from what I can see…then again, I have never played the game you converted. Oh well.

Well, the level is ok. The music choice is different froom the one usually used, and even though im glad its finally different, i still like the overused tune more. The layout is good, its not confusing and its easy to move around in. The carrot placement is ok, I had some doubts about the warps to the fullNRG, but after further testing I found no errors worth mentioning. Ammo is placed well, I have nothing agaisnt it. Eyecandy is good, but it feels like its missing something, could of been a bit more in some places, but its good. The level overally is ok, there isnt much wrong with it, but its nothing really exciting. Its a great effort and worth downloading,but its not as good as the other level (Angelic Warfare) that you both made. Still great thoug, and im giving it a solid 8, almost 8.2 and a download reccomendation.

Oh, and one more thing. It also seemed to me that each of you made your own half, because the 2 halfs look strangely different, its suspicious.

A semi important notice:

There have been some bugs which I have failed to discover, so I have reuploaded this level and now the bugs are fixed. Such bugs are the RF without the generater, which now has it, the gun crate, which is now a gunbarrel and I increased the speed in some sucker tubes. Revieweres may want to reupload, but I reccomend just ignoring the certain points. And about bumping your head on the ceiling, as BlurredD said, sadly I couldnt figure a way to fix it without changing it completely, which I did not want. That is all.

Finally, Violet strikes back with another conversion of Holidaious.
Tiles included: Probably all the tiles from the original holidaious are included, even those pesky hands that come out of the ground and ceiling. What more could you want? Some nice tree animations there that are included, a working backround, some important tiles such as destructable blocks and poles, and some eyecandy things. Violet has added in some extra tiles as well, such as the vines, hooks and poles and things, because the original holidaeous didnt include them. This is good, since these enable you to make a great level with this set. Basically, i cant think of any missing tiles.
Color: What can I say, its great. All 3 versions have excellent color which matches that of the original tilesets made for Jazz Jackrabbit Holiday Hare ’94. The backrounds are great, and so are the added tiles. The set is really nice to look at. There is a large variety in color and its all great, I dont know how it could of been a better color edit/remake from an original JJ1 tileset.
Useability: Its ok, some tiles are placed far from others which go with them, and some parts are a bit confusing. Looking at the set at first, I recieved the impression that most novices will get a hard time using this set, but then I quickly got used to where the tiles were placed, and I had no problem. The tileset is perfectly usable, containing every tile (except possibly a sucker tube) which is used to make a good level. I see few problems with this set.
Tiles included rating:3.2/3.5
Color: 2.9/3
Useability:2.6/3.5
Total = 8.7/10
Additional comments: Can Violet get any better? His conversions are amazing. And in this one, violet took the time to make 3 different versions of this set (Evening, day and night). All of them grwat with many strong points. Great to use set. There are some cool animations, and Violet included some extra tiles to make the sets better. These are some of the best conversions I’ve seen, and would definately used by lots of levelmakers. Violet makes conversions look like a work of art.
OVERALL COMMENTS:
These are great! They have every element of a good level (except some suckerz could of been added in) and are great to use and fun to look at. These will definately be the number one choice for any person wishing to make a level with either version of the holidaeious set. A nice christmas tileset (even though its a bit late :P) which I reeccomend everyone to download.

This blows the roof :)

I think it is good. Small and there could have been a bit more eyecandy added[This review has been edited by Shiverz]

Well Done youve made yet another good JJ1 Tilset Conversion . I like the tiles of Eva.

Yees, yes! Everytime different rewiew. Sometimes an explanation rated with words, sometimes points, etc…

So This time let’s start out of ten. (10)

-0.5 Bad enemy and pickup placement
-1.5 Bad background and eyecandy, in some levels
-1.0 Some ideas were stealen from others and I dislike it, though.

Well, It was ok to play the first four levels, until came the message “Could not find level or tileset to that and that level” so, I love the heaven tileset too, but you didn’t use it very well. Yes i’m not good too to make backgrounds, but better to make better eyecandy, I can use the heaven some better than you, so keep practising. But you used triggers well and it made this a bit interesting. Levels were long, that’s a good point, so I added a 0.2 to the rating. This is best level what I have seen from you, sonictth, since your first upload to j2o

But I’m some sick today, so don’t disturb me, ok?[This review has been edited by Superjazz]

Man… this is cool the 2 example levels are great. The student and the books looks good… a 8.7 and a strong download reccomend. :)

The level and gameplay was okay. Some eyecandy bugs but thats alright. Not boring… a download reccomend. I’m not going to write a long review… you have got to look for yourself…

Hey, good idea in the example level, but sad, that it was so short. But this tileset is awesome.

WOW! This titleset is great! The Evas ringing with there things. The example level has even a little story in it. You’v got to find the real Eva. The other Evas you meet are clones. This is actully the better version of HH94. All the destruct senery and stuff are just good made. The other day and morning titlets are also good made. I’m planning to make one of this level my one! Well, check it out for yourself, you will not get sorry downloading this.
+CONS: Very good made. Santa Claus on the background is just cool!
-CONS: To bad some titles are copied.

DOWNLOAD RECCOMEND!

This is fun the eyecandy is oke but not really good but also not bad. The levels are fun to play and the choice a boss is a good idea to.Download for gameplay

The story is the best i ever have seen in jazz2. The eyecandy is also great and the music choice is good.

This is good!!!

Download? Yes

This is the same good job
