Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Good but too annoying

Ammo is just thrown to stupid places.

But should be dowloaded…

Better, except for one major, major bug, on the very right hand corner of the map, you can fall right off the edge and get stuck at the bottom. Fix that, and I’d rate higher. Good eyecandy here, except for some areas here and there where you can see a powerup that is hidden behind Layer 3 sticking out into visible range (for example, you can see the leaves on a carrot that was supposed to be hidden by layer 3.) To fix this, just put some Layer 3 tiles above there, and it will be covered up and nobody will ever notice. No long review since this is basically the original version with nicer eyecandy and improved weapons placement.
Download, yes, but be careful on the part where you can fall off.

Not a bad level, actually rather average. Pretty good, with one major throwback…

EYECANDY: OKAY / GOOD
There was no very BAD eyecandy, all though there wasn’t any very GOOD eyecandy. I would’ve given you an OKAY if you didn’t add some interesting things, like a translucent sucker tube, some “holes” or “cracks” in the walls, and other surprises. However, there isn’t a lot of eyecandy in general, I didn’t see any wires, or much decoration in the foreground layers. There isn’t much to see in the background layers since the level doesn’t show those layers (in fact, there are only shown through the small cracks and openings along the brick walls).
Pros: A lot of interesting eyecandy.
Cons: Not too much eyecandy.

WEAPONS AND AMMO PLACEMENT: BAD
This is the major drawback of the level. Awful ammo placement. There is one room where there is around 20 missles just waiting for you and a super carrot to go along with them, and another has about 10 of each kind of ammo there is. In the other places, there is hardly anything.
Pros: Some good placement…
Cons: Way too much in the areas I mentioned.

ORIGINALITY: GOOD
Like I said, this is the first level I’ve seen with translucent sucker tubes, and there was also very interesting layer usage – things you’d expect in layer 4 are in layer 5 or 3, and etc. Very tricky to navigate the first time around.
Pros: Original eyecandy.
Cons: Nothing astonishingly new.

FUN: OKAY
This level looks like a fun time in multiplayer games, but there is so much ammo…. hmm..
Pros: Looks fun to play.
Cons: The battle could become one sided if somebody decided to stay in the ammo room and wait for a challenger.

MY RECCOMENDATIONS: * Improve on some eyecandy * Add MORE eyecandy (maybe some wires, or some animated lights on the ground) * Go easy on the ammo in some places! I’d give this level a good 6.2 or 6.5 if it weren’t for the ammo placement.

Honestly, this is much better than I thought it’d be, Powerboy, you’ve come a long way since your last battle level. Keep up the good work!

This level is not good! It’s small and doesn’t fit good… However this is your first level, offcourse you have to learn allot. Try making more levels and make them so good as possible and take your time, take some days to make them not just a few minutes. Better luck next time!

Not too good… here we go.
My rating system: Very bad, bad, okay, good, very good……….

Eyecandy: Bad
A couple parts had okay eyecandy, but most of it is just bad. Could’ve been much, much better, especially on the edges of the chunks of terrain, and in a lot of other places. Also, in the foreground layer with the blowing leaves, they didn’t have auto x/y speeds, I’m not sure if it might have had x/y speeds (not auto), but it should’ve had an auto x-speed.

Weapons and ammo: Okay
Not very good either, you shouldn’t make levels with three crates just sitting there in a row, it’s just kind of… well… uh, you know, it’s not very “attractive looking.” There was some good ammo placement, though.

Fun: Okay
This level could actually be fun if all the eyecandy was fixed up and all the ammo placement was better. It’s just ugly to look at.

Originality: N/A
Eh, all the Diamondus levels are the same. I don’t even bother rating originality when it comes to Diamondus, Castle, and all the other over-used tilesets. Maybe on tilesets like D*mn, H*ll, Colony, etc. D*mn and H*ll are tilesets, I’m not cursing at you, Powerboy. Don’t worry :-D

Download? Sorry, no download reccomendation.
