So Blade’s new tileset is finally released, since I’ve been away from JJ2 for months it seems to come much quicker than I thought. Anyway, this is a masterpiece. If only it was a little easier to use, I would have rated it higher.
This is so funny. Giving out 10s used to be a common thing a while back, people’s standards became higher and it leveled off. Now standards are really high and yet uploads are getting well justified 10s. I can’t find a single thing wrong with this set and it just looks awesome, nothing could possibly be added to enhance it.
Looks marvellous from the screenshots. I give you an AAA (10)!
Wait, I seriously misread this as The Fortres of Forgotten Socks and was like omg?
Other than that, seems like a great tileset yes though a little confusing.
I always loved Blade’s Cartoonish drawing style in his tilesets. This one does the same thing, but is drawn even more professionally. This could be the best tileset from 2008, and I can say it is already one of the best ever made. And don’t forget the size, you can’t make much more tiles in an 1.23 tileset! Hopefully this will be actively used!
I had high expectations for this tileset and it turned out even better than I thought it would be. It’s a very hard to use tileset, but luckily it comes with a good example level that showcases everything that can be done with it. This is one of the best tilesets I have seen in ages.
Yes…its..err..its..its
ITS HUGE!!!! I MEAN REAAAALY!how CAN you ever make a thing so big. Its allmost a bet: “WHO CAN MAKE THE BIGGEST FILE?”

1.Its got good music +2pts
2.Good graphics +3pts
3.Its GIGANTIC (good efort) +1pt
4.I like the levels.(nice gameplay, good weapon-placing) +2pts
5.For being able to make levels attall +1pt (i really ca`nt make any levels, could you help me?)
For even getting a 9 you get +1pt

A long overdue review to a deserving tileset.
To start off the review, this set just demonstrates that Blade keeps getting better. I love the atmosphere the tileset is able to provide and the cartoonish appearance of it. There are many tiles provided for some spiffy eyecandy (posters on fences, stuff buried in the ground (although I would question the sanity of anyone deciding to bury a SHOVEL)) and you can make some nice things with it. The tileset is fairly straightforward and easy to use. Some tile placements may daunt you a bit, but you can quickly learn how to use all parts of the set properly. Poles, destruct blocks, tubes, hooks, everything is included in the set, even pools enabling water (although I personally would only accompany those tiles with Water Blocks). The masking is nicely done, although I have a personal dislike for really tight tubes and crawling into them in jj2 =P. Oh, and I also really like the backround and the way it is made, it really does remind me of a calm night in a park located near a big city.
Overall, this is a really good set and I wouldn’t be surprised to see several levels using it. The zip even comes with a nice, quick single player level which is not only enjoyable but also shows off the set. The only thing preventing me from rating this higher is that because of the cartoonish way Blade approached the set in, it doesn’t have as many details as other tilesets like 7th lava fall or Egypt. Nonetheless, it is a great set and definately worth the download
Edit: On second thought, i’m upgrading the rating by a bit because I’ve looked back and I think the set deserves it. GG.

Jeez… I might be a skilled level creator myself but- WHOA! I could never make something like this.
Lets all give Blade a rond of applause!!!

I’m not going to rate this in my usual way but this is 10x better than Disguises Mega Metropolis. Eyecandy tiles for the backround and foreground and colours mix in with the atmosphere.
The tileset has also a strange feel to it.
Its a 9.7 from me.
EDIT: Great example level too.
Short
Background: Good
4 Layer: Average…
