I actually hope you are right, there, Mike. Then I could accept this game. And, like I said, Dark Shell looks more like he would be Devan's son, not Devan with a new name. He looks younger than Devan. And he has a different name!

I don't like the idea of tampering with Jazz's look, but if that rabbit isn't Jazz, then it doesn't matter how he looks. He could just have the same name.

Or he could be Jazz when he was a young, brash rabbit. (Not the trained, confident, turtle-butt whooper we know today). Maybe back then Devan went by the alias "dark". This could be a prequel to Jazz 1.

I hope either of those is correct, or close. Then I could more easily bring myself to like the game, if it has good gameplay, that is. And where that is concerned, I hope it plays more like Jazz 1 than Jazz 2, cause let's face it, the levels in JJ1 were much better. (Although judging from the abundance of JJ2 tilesets used in this game, this doesn't look likely.)

And let's look at the positive side, it looks like the game has some kind of storyline to it. Now, it could be very cheesy and embarassing, but I do like the idea somewhat of a storyline.

So, in short, if the game is either a prequel, or a sequel about our hero's offspring (or later descendant), has good gameplay, and the storyline is actually good, I think I could like this game.
