A long time ago(about 2 years?) I wanted to have some fun.



So, I thought up a very simple tileset. It only existed of square blocks and a few diagonal blocks.

I made up a contest out of it. Who could design the best level with only the basics?

Back to basics. Can you make a good level, while you only have access to a few tiles?



I didn't expect a lot of results, but I did get some, and how awesome they were!



As I have never really published the results in a good way, I will publish them now.



The participants were Bobby, Ice M A N(I think? doh) and Disguise. Back then not that known yet. But now they are!



They sent in some awesome levels. Bobby got first, and with good reason! With this simple tileset he managed to design a original, fun level, that looked nice too!



Disguise got second. And oh.. how well deserved. You really see the jcs master, as he managed to form my tileset into a shape that I wouldn't even have thought of!



Evilmike got second too. He managed to create a very original battle level that plays very lovely!



And Ice M A N, he managed to make a good battle level too. Not as original as the others, but it's still quite good.



Enough blabbering, get those pearls.

Update: added Evilmike's level. I am very sorry, evilmike.. because of the.. weird name of your level and it's abscense in my jj2 directory I totally forgot about it! This sure was a second place tier.
