I tried these levels of yours. I could barely see a thing and the tileset was confusing. It was extremely hard to not only see, but the amount of enemies made it almost impossible to beat. It really discusted me, and that’s my real opinion. I’m VERY sorry for breaking the silence here, but on the plus side someone finally used the “bee boy” enemy.
(While your description is very good, your rating is significantly high, and possibly too much so.)
(Re-re-edit by Violet: Trafton is right. If you dislike so many things, why give it a 9.2?)

Old Review preserved for posterity:
This is a really good episode. I like your episode. Can you make another Tomb Rabbit? Thank you for making this episode Kejero.I also like your tileset.:)
14+ year update:
Well it’s been over 14 years and I’ve finally properly beat Tomb Rabbit. Now that I’m 24 and not 9 years old, I feel I should make an effort to write a better review.
The point of it being a really good episode still stands. Why is it a good episode? Well, for starters it is very challenging even on Easy and Normal mode, and it took me several days to complete. From the sheer size of the levels you can tell that Kejero put in a lot of hard work (not to mention he created his own tilesets just for the episode!).
For its time it was extremely innovative, especially since JJ2+ and AngelScript did not exist at the time. When I was young I thought that the HUD was really cool (I still do, but nowadays the same effect could be achieved even better with AngelScript). The hub idea (Central Cave) was also something I quite liked and really wish more level packs had used. The puzzles are still as hard as I remember them being as a kid (especially that sucker tube maze which I ultimately cheated through, sorry Kejero!).
When I found out about Tomb Rabbit 2 I was very excited and I followed it for a number of years. Naturally I was pretty saddened when Kejero decided not to finish it, but the demo was a nice farewell. (As an aside, I was pretty happy when I discovered Kejero and Ninja Dodo had worked on a game together, and I’m hoping to one day play that.)
good bud the levels are very strange and longthe puzzles are somtime to hard and play levels wo loking verie much on the levels jou alredie played out is not realy funnie that make it a 8 bud beacause the levels are funny wen jou see them for first it is a 8.5[please dont email me about this review]
guess what? It’s kind of very hard so I need more time to review this. But wow Kejero this rocks:):):):):):):):):):O:O:O:O:O:O:O:O
“Banana Beach Demo” is an excellent and entertaining single player pack which truly shows what a good levelmaker can do with the Beach tileset. Tileset use is very creative, in fact, at some points looking almost three dimensional. There are a lot of enemies in the final level, but it is still fun to play. The puzzles may be my favorite part of this level. They are interesting and fun to do. The end is probably the most annoying part of the pack, due to the overuse of enemies. Other than that, the pack makes good use of enemy placement and the tileset. The eyecandy is very spiffarific, as is the gameplay. Other than the end part, the pack is really enjoyable. There is a certain “fun factor” put in place by the completely untedious puzzles and tileset use that boosts the score. These levels are not quite like traditional levels using this tileset, which is definitely a good thing in this case. These levels are creative and well-done and great examples of what a good levelmaker can do with the beach tileset. Definitely worth a download.
+ PROS: Fun, entertaining, and great puzzles.
- CONS: The last level is not up to standards.
VERDICT: My overall verdict is an 8.5 and a download recommendation for everyone. Those who like puzzles will definitely love this especially.
That is good.
but is BORING.When I played this I was bored.
