Pretty nice, most tiles look good.
Tge animation doesn’t really seem to work and a few block aren’t done so well.
I recommend download.

A pretty average level. Anyway, it’s much better than a hotel, which is normally made outta the Tavern tileset. I found the design a little above average, while it needs a little more eye candy. Also, the level is quite small. Weapons placement is decent, also.

Anyway, it’s your choice to download or not, I think.

Gotta ruin it, don’t I :)

I didn’t like the sand part.. where if you fall on the sand, you go DOWN THROUGH the sand.. and going way down, I never found anything down there..

Go ahead and download this.

A very nice single player pack. The design is quite nice for each of these levels. Also, I love the car chase idea.
Also, event placement is nice.

A few problems with some of the levels. Mostly navagation, or the fact that you have no idea where to go. I had this problem is nearly every level!

Anyway, I would do probably dislike this pack more than most people who reviewed this, but I still recommend this to download.

only problem in the episodes list it kinda pushes the “shareware” section outta the way :)
On the other hand, I could just delete all but the first episode to leave space…

WoW, a very nice single player episode. I like the use of the custom tilesets, and you also have some GREAT ideas. (Mmm, car chase.) I don’t like the idea of respawning enemies too much but it added some difficulty to the last level. Though this episode DID have some stuff to complain about. There were minor eye candy/navigational bugs, not to mention some of the ANNOYING puzzles. (hey, I like puzzles, but try to make them easier) However, aside of this, I REALLY can’t think of much to complain about.

The music was cool but didn’t play on certain levels..

Overall I HIGHLY recommend this pack. Get downloading.

“The episode file works fine for me, but you have to play the whole epic episodes first”
-Electric Ir

Oh yes. I forgot this. When I updated to 1.23 (As many of you on the JMMB know) my saved games were erased. So I had to play through the Epic episodes. Thats a bug you MIGHT wanna fix. Not that big of a deal.

P.S. Yeah, that .j2e thing I would REALLY like!

Indeed, dutch level makers strike back with this very cool pack.
“Putrid Monkey” contains eight brand new single player levels, it uses five homecooked tilesets and four custom music files. Some of the levels are very original (the car chase is fun for example) and the underused tilesets were used very well (J1-Diamondus, Temple, Strawberries!). By the way, it would be very cool, if you could include a readme text file that gives info about who made the tilesets and the music (selfmade tilesets will make me rate it higher :-).
The pack also includes a Jazz 2 Episode file (.j2e) which means you can easily chose it from within the game (you’ll see a new [not-so-beautiful!] button in the episode selection screen which is pretty cool). I hope the guys will release the J2E-Tool sometime to give everyone the chance to make something like that :-)
The eyecandy in all of the levels is on a very high standard, but the design is a tad confusing in some cases (some puzzles are annoying, but hey, its better than one of those 5-minute-run-thru-levels).
The music selection just fits great! Nothing to complain about there.
Unfortunately i didn’t hear music in “Overdose of Sand” (songcd4.s3m?). Authors, please check your files before uploading them to J2O :-)

Overall, this is definitely A MUST DOWNLOAD for EVERYONE, not only single player fans. Great work, dutchmen! :-)

P.S.: Dear Authors, please don’t use this page for discussing internal problems with the pack.

This level pack is very very cool.

It has nice ideas, and its just….(Argh! Stupid language…no other ways to describe :-)

Well its just really good.
I liked the CAR level too.
And I didn’t find a bug…
I thought of giving it an extra point
for New Years but…

Then I thought all the Admins and Aiko would be mad at me (And we don’t want that :-)

(Added Note: Oh yes. The Strawberry tileset is really cool! And easy to work with. I’m making a level right now with it! And for that, I’ll give ya an extra 0.2 points…No wait….Still might make Admins/Aiko mad….Maybe i’ll increase it later…)

And this review is too long (for me)

Im very sorry to tell you guys that the Episode file wont work right in 1.23 (I think it does in tsf) because of an error by me while creating it.

I think that if you delete the "ending" as next level and replace it for "endepis" in d-am-n2 it will work again, but if you do that you’ll need to play the last episode again (thats no problemo using jjnext)

Yes, A nice episode pack some orginal levels in it (like the car level)

You need some skill in the levels but there is a but here the eyecandy in most of the levels where boring. It needed some more..
There are some parts that you could be stuck though =P
anyways good job guys we needed more SP episodes =)

This isn’t the best CTF ever. But not the worse.

The set was used well, I must say. But the straight forward thing isn’t very good. But exept for that, the design isn’t half bad.

Well, it’s up to you pretty much to download or not, but this may be fun to host on the Internet.
