Completely awesome!!! Spy’s "Newage" (originally released in January 2000) is definitely one of my top 10 favourite battle packs for Jazz Jackrabbit 2. It contains three battle maps using the Jungle, Castle and the Labrat tilesets that came with the game.
The eyecandy is really really incredible and so is the design. The author made nearly perfect use of the tilesets, as Iced already said. And i don’t think the navigation is a major problem here.
"Newage" also uses custom music files and i can’t say much about them…you have to listen yourself. They have an outstanding quality!
To sum it up: this battle pack is a MUST DOWNLOAD. Really, this is "la cremè de la cremè". DOWNLOAD NOW!!! I give out unbelievable 9 points for this ‘coz it rox so much.
“Jungle Trouble” is an awesome single player level by Spy.
Design/Layout is some of the best I’ve seen (as good if not better than the standard single player levels). Though I found one major flaw in it: it’s confusing in some spots. (I spent like 10 minutes hunting for some of those trigger crates.)
Eye candy also quite good, the tileset was used in a creative way. I like that.
Music choice fit somewhat well, could be better, though that barely affects the rating at all.
Overall if you’re a single player fan you definitely get this.. :-)
“New Age” by Spy includes three nice battle levels.
The design in all of these is good, a little hard to navigate, but good. I really like the jungle one..
Eye candy is great. The tilesets were used well. You really don’t need much more to perfect the use of the tileset.
Music choice is good, it does not have a big part in the review, though.
Overall, if you’re a battle fan, you should get this now. :-)
