Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

This is a good battle level using the Egypt(day) tileset and has my download reccomendation.

Everything in this level was done well, and I like the layout more than most battle levels. Sandy Temple has a rather circular layout, and doesn’t have any of those “random platforms” splattered everywhere that I hate. A few springs could have been more powerful in this level, but otherwise the level flows well.

I give this a 7.5, which is higher than my usual score for battle levels.

Before I say anything, I have to tell you something VERY important. ALWAYS put a mask around the borders of a CTF level. That means make sure that there are no ways to “touch” the edge of a level. This counts for the top, bottom and sides. The reason for doing this is to prevent the infamous “flag bug” which causes a person’s name to be repeated countless times at the bottom of the screen. Because you didn’t do this, I am taking off a big 1 point from the total score untill you fix it.

Besides that major flaw, I think this isn’t a bad level. The layout works for the most part, it doesn’t look bad, and there are powerups (I like those). There are some other problems with this level however, and I think that next time you make a CTF level you should take some consideration.

First off, the bases are imbalanced. Notice how the blue base is sort of cramed into a dead end while the red base is more in the open? That means that the blue base is easier to defend. Also, there is only ONE puny carrot, with a big 28 second generator, while there are two powerups. A powerup in CTF mode is a two hit kill, and usually one carrot won’t even change anything. I reccomend that you add another carrot somewhere, or a full nrg, because those powerups mean people are going to be dying a bit too much. Finally, this level has ice, and I don’t like that weapon much.

Overall, this level is fairly good, and I reccomend it for no more than 6 players. I give it a 6.7 out of ten, minus 1. That equals 5.7.

Elrick, could you re-download the level? I made a huge mistake and didn’t add enough backround. This might change your rating.

These is first Magoo CTF level reviewed by ME :] Oke,lets start with,,what I like in these’‘
1#Weapons-Good Placed,not too much of them,but you will dont have lack of them
2#Level size:almost perfect,not too big but not too small.however,i think that level could be lil bigger ;)
Now,what i DONT like in level:
1#Seeker Power Up-in that kind of level,seekz are very deadly(no place to avoid them)
2#hmm…let me think a while…actualy i like that level very much :D

Nice…

I think this is a good level. Everything thing in it is nice, though the eye-candy seems to be a little random and unorganized. It’s like a 7.7, but I’m making the rating a tad bit higher since no one really uses this tileset.[This review has been edited by BlurredD]

Not a bad battle level, but I have seen better lately. I seem to navigate it pretty smoothly (with Jazz and Spaz). Strangely, the design sorta resembles that of battle 1, a level I don’t really like that much, but other ppl i know do ;)

Another ting for those tileset junkies out there, the level uses the ‘drop dead gorgeous’ Egypt tileset by Agama, some amazing stuff ;)

MR MAGOO’s new battle level, “Sandy Temple”, is a fairly well designed level. It is pretty open, not as claustrofobicly made as my levels:P. Weapen placement is good, maybe a tad too sparse, but good enough, pretty well balenced. As background music, MR MAGOO choose the rockings ‘Zarathus’ tune, wich has a very egyptian feel, the same Agama choose for his example:). Eyecandy is good too. Makes good use of Agama’s AwEsOmE Egypt Day tileset. The level features both inside and outside areas. There are a few dead ends, but apart from that, it’s got good, solid and fueltn gameplay. It makes good use of the lighting efects Agama used in his tileset. Overall, i like it. Yes, i like it.. A nice 7.7 from me. Good job, MR MAGGOT:P[This review has been edited by >CelL<]

EvilMike is correct, although I think he means he’s seen the tileset used better, not the level.

(P.S. Work more on powerup placement)
