Level rating: 7
Rating
4.7

Heating up is a very simply level by Snotticus. There are no kind of story line, quests, or special adds to the level. It’s just a common “find the exit” level type.

EYECANDY:
Poor. Too much of the level is left open with only the background layers to fill it up. The athour didn’t centrainly think very creative either, all eyecandy who are in the level are just copyed and pastered from the tileset.

GAMEPLAY:
If you can find a word descriping both boring and and time waste, that’s it for the gameplay. It’s just “folow the road”, pick off enemies underway and pick up gold coins. There’s really no suprise in the level, no challenge. The only challenge is the end boss who appear to be bissly fighting you in a very narrow room. Folowed by a “SMOKIN’ =D” (?), you’ll win the level with ease.

EVENT PLACEMENT:
Awful. The chance of getting hurt is upon the spikes, the enemies are simply too foolish placed to harm you. The food and goodies are also very easy to pickup underway, and dosen’t force you to explore the area for collect it all. The gold coin people missed is located at position 92,13, which is inside a wall covered by layer 3 mask, nearly impossible to find without any hints.

Overall:
Below average. You need to practice more with JCS. Download some single player levels with the mark tip and watch how they set up their levels with eyecandy and enemies. You should also try put more originality into the level, instead of the common find exit.

Download not recommed.

Why does a female dominant race suck? Those girls use the nature as their clothed, have a visit in fall.

There’s only the fix for one of the two versions, and you could have added a textured background aswell.

A more darker version of Inferno 2. There is also added a textured background and 30 tiles spend on credit. This is nearly even close to be as good as BlurredD’s rework of Castle, or EvilMike’s recoloring of Daimondus. This could, maxium, have taken me 10 minuts to do. Download not recommed.

Yeah, this set is avarage. Avarage is the middle rating, 5, not 6.7 which is close to 7 (Over avarage). You’r over rating this. Why? Because:

-Tiles are too simpel.
-Bad colours.
-Boring background layers.
-The set is overall “flat”.
-The sucker tubes mask is bad.
-The “space” background is neither blue or black, but brown which is ugly.

Please stop over-rate people’s stuff because it’s their “first”, “second”, and “third”. Heck, do I get extra points if I upload my tileset number 14?

Oh the eyecandy is bad, and the weapon placement is bad. Actually this level dosn’t give sense.

First there’s an about level, which tells that everyone on Jazz2online is “(minty fresh)”. Pete gives credit to himself twice, and tells us that the tileset is by Overlord (Btw, the tileset is by Overlord), that no-one made a kind of beta test, and that music is by mad freaks. You reach the bottom, and moving right will result in skipping the level, moving left will result in you get stuck in a hurt block.
Also, the level is 256×64, and uses about 1/20 with tiles.

In the battle level, you start getting warped into a room which you cannot leave without cheating, after an odd system which dosn’t work. The level is more a hotel level than a battle level.
The level’s size is 256×64 too, but only 1/4 of the level is filled up with tiles. The background layers is very boring to look on, and there isn’t something suprising over the levels eyecandy. Boring, too.

Host this? No. I’d suggest you not downloading it.

I’m suprised over how much this is under-rated.

Trafton uses his completely own rating system, which sometimes can make a weird rating to a good level. You do NOT have to copy the rating straight ahead off because you think his reviews are godly.

Because this level is BIG. It has tons of pickups, secret, and hidden coins you can collect. It has alot of annoying bees, and some turtles. There’s powerups various places, and lot of food so you can get sugar rush easy.

This level is fun, and absolutely wroth download!

BlurredD’s Odyssey is one of the best tilesets ever imo. Throught it’s abit flat, it’s quality and possibilitys are great.
The set isn’t very userfriendly, you should take a close look before starting up with it.
Download recommed.

I would give this a higer rating, if it wasen’t because the tiles are set up in such a un-user friendly way. As Trafton noticed.
I hate the style of the tileset, it’s too “funky” with the colors, and expectelly if you overuse like in Violet’s example level.
The background for layer 8 is ugly, it can be made to a textured background throught, but it’s horrible.
A last negative thing is the sucker tubes, they suck. They don’t fit the tileset in anyway, their colors are screaming and dosen’t make a part of the tileset.

After I looked on this tileset for a while, I got a couple of ideas that could make it look better than Violet’s example level.
Overall, this is the only recent “under-water” theme tileset, and you should download it.

For: World War Too
Level rating: 3
Rating
2.7

World War Too, which was supported to be “World War Two”, is a 256×64 big level using Carrotus.
Don’t let you fool of the size, because only 1/2 of the level is used, while only 1/8 actelly was eyecandy and ground, while the rest is just radomly placed ammo and air boards.
When you enter the level, you can those between 2 battle areas, a huge one to the left where you’r on air board, and a small flat one with 2 rooms called “bunkers”, which isen’t really a bunker, but just a hole down to a room, while a real bunker would be up on the ground and usual holes to shoot out.
Layer 8 is very bad used, it’s not textured, and it’s sticked wrong together, layer 7 and 6 is placed wrong, if you fly up in top of the level, you can see the downcut of the layer 6 and 7 eye candy from carrotus.
The level itself is extreme empty, sinice it’s most likely you only see the strange background in the arena to the left and in the arena to the right the ground is sticked weird together.
Also, there’s 2 plasma shields in each arena, shields are bad. In the right arena it’s very easy to get it, while in the left arena you have to shot you thought a carrot and run a secret way in.

There’s also a toture room you find by go into a warp which is hidden up around left cornor, the toture room uses enemies, which isen’t displayed in multiplayer.
In the toture room itself, there’s a trig crate you have to get.
When destroyed, you have to be spaz for get out again, if you’r Jazz, it’s just too bad.
You’ll find a patch open to the left by the way you entered the toture room, which leads to a secret “weapon storage”, which is the only place in the level with powerups, and there’s lots of them.
Overall, this is an extreme bad level, it’s bad balanched, bad ammo placement, bad eyecandy, bad layer use.

There isen’t something to say “Haha” for sinice this is a very very VERY bad level. ‘Nuff said.
It’s most likely a single player level made in a rush, only 3 types of enemies which are usual stuck together in the different rooms, there’s no ammo, loads of carrots and check points in the start.
The eyecandy dosen’t exsist, and the layer eyecandy is arful bad.
The end boss suck badly because of the platform set up, because there’s too many Bubbas, and because you only have blaster to fight him.
Make up your levels and begin work more thought them, insert food, ammo, gems, and different kind of challenges.

Violet did really make a level that did look totally different from other carrotus levels, just too bad it’s a poor CTF level.
The music is boring, ‘nuff said, there could have been better music, the suckertube up to the carrot is cool effected, but the carrot is in a death way (bad).
Thought this amazing eyecandy, the level itself is kind of boring.

I must say it’s alot better than I expected, great use of tileset.
But the music is bad, honestly, I don’t like it. There’s a few places where the eyecandy lags, there’s tiles in the tiles that haven’t been used, and the layer background could have been better done than “falling” stars all the time.
Overall, I think this is a nice remake, and you should download it.
