Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

This is barely an improvement. This is an improved version, but the level is still too short, and there are too many enemies.

And yes I downloaded and played all the single player levels I made during my childhood, couldn’t resist I was that curious. But one thing’s for sure I’ll take these bad levels as learning experience, to make better levels in the future.

i know how scrooge uses the robot under you when fighting he/she but a layer 3
inside the platform inside it is deven but badd tiles sorry
(Unsupported rating (1) removal. You are not supposed to rate the example levels. That leaves you with the complete review of “badd tiles”, which contains one spelling error and two words. This is unaccceptable. You must explain why the tiles are bad in a way that people can understand. ~Violet)

Well, I know the link doesn’t work, I want the link to working! :( Unfortiuntly I don’t have this level anymore!

ghosta ar cool

This level shows much improvement in Bjarni’s level making. It is a little like Party in the Castle, which I think is good because it’s sort of like a sequel.

The ammo placement isn’t very good, and niether is the food placement, but the enemy placement is decent for the most part. A few of the tiles look ugly, but again, it’s pretty good for the most part. The boss is much too hard in the location it’s placed, though.

I don’t think the water disappeared, I think that you reached an underwater “cave” where there wasn’t any water. This was quite a neat thing, Bjarni.

It is possible to play with Jazz in that one area, but I used a secret trick of mine that I will now reveal. I buttstomped the ghosts to get up.

Overall, keep up the good work!

i can`t play it because of the password. Don`t use passwords please.

Why didn’t I listen to Violet? Violet was right! =( I should listen to him, he was saying I need to fix things! Oh well, I hope I can get better next time!

P.s. This Matthew is Labratkid not MattW or iCeD

Satan: You can play it! I’m not goona tell the password, the level is in Home Cooked level, you don’t need the password, it’s there for security resson, you can pllay anyway! I won’t delete the password! Never do this again, ok? It’s your problem, delete some levels, and you can play mine!

Eter: Your review is too short! Why do you want to give it 10, what about eye candy, layout and enemies? Please have more details in your reviews!

Someone please delete Satan’s review about me to delete the password, I’ll always use passwords, and Satan’s review should be deleted because it’s spam! Passwords is to keep my level security, I won’t give anyone the passwords expect the beta-testers![This review has been edited by the real one Bjarni]

I have no idea how to finish that. After you passed the second door you get to Eva who is prisoned in some trigger blocks. She tells you to help her (you have to find a trigger crate for that). So I gone to the door on the right and had absolutely no point what to do. There’s no way to get out.

Also, Bjarni, I see you didn’t even listen to that what I told you in my review for party in castle (ok, you did a new level), but like Green Plant said before, this is very familiar to Party In Castle. I don’t rate (because I don’t rate things I didn’t finish anymore), but I agree with Green Plant.

[EDIT]
Bjarni, I didn’t say you didn’t listen to Violet. I said you didn’t listen to me (or not enough). But I’m sure you will get better =)

@ GreenPlant: I know, but I can’t find the trigger crate.

R3PTILE, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU??? WHY DO YOU OVERRATE THIS SO MUCH?
THERE’S NO REASON WHY THIS COULD DESERVE A 10!

Bjarni, are you R3ptile?[This review has been edited by PHT]

I decided to write a quick review.

Well.. these levels are very linear, and they don’t have eyecandy. there’s lots of enemy packs there and there, but its still boring to play, because these levels don’t have any eyecandy, expect the layer 8, and 4, and some others, if i remember correctly. well, i had some fun when playing these levels, too bad that these are still very short. my rating is 4.2

jes indeed its not much bud how kan i revieuw a level that dosnt have all levels i coldent find the level that_after_jou_die whi that 4 wel that because of the other 2 levels the first two
(Unsupported rating removal edit. Please provide more detail in your reviews – assuming I understand you, all you’ve really said is that the next level setting is messed up. Why is is not so much bud? What’s the eyecandy, design, gameplay, or anything at all like? What could be improved? Etc. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]

Well, I din’t play the old version but it seems that I have to review this, so let’s go on.

At first, like the author mentioned above, this is the fixed version of his old level “Party in Castle”. Well, What this has to do with a party isn’t clear for me (ok, except the bridge thingy), the level has, sadly, no story. You come in a castle, and fight multiple enemies. Well, in the readme (Yes, I read it!!) you can read what Bjarni changed, but there are still very much things which aren’t right.

LVL DESIGN
I think the level design should probably be remade fully, alltough nothing does have a totally understandable reason (I don’t mean spelling errors in text signs). For example the area with that bridge which will break if you walk over it. A text sign tells you that over you Lizards are dancing and the bridge could break. Well, you see Lizards dancing on a bridge above you, and not on that one you are standing so there’s no reason why this thing breaks. Also, the water part. There’s no reason why suddenly water comes up and after a short swimming it doesn’t exist anymore. Sorry Bjarni, but I’m such a perfectionist :-)

EYECANDY
Well, there aren’t tile bugs (maybe some minor), but even with the fact there aren’t any, you should know that you have to change it. Why? Because it is all out of time. Some years ago this might have been reasonable eyecandy, but not today. Not after “Demon Invasation” from Moonblaze, “Tomb Rabbit” from Kejero and so on. There are some background layers, but they are stolen from “Formerly A Prince” from Cliff Bleszinski. Also you could have used some different tiles for the wall.

CONCLUSION
Well, Bjarni, I see your “fixing” of levels is, just done wrong. Listen to ALL what a reviewer says is wrong and if it needs to, rebuild your level. There are several more downfalls (like ammo and food placement, enemy placement and more) but I’m too lazy to mention them all. Sorry, if you want to fix a level, then put effort in it.
DOWNLOAD RECCOMENDATION: No, maybe if you want to see how to NOT fix a level.
HOST: nope
LEVEL RANK: Above average
FINAL RATING: 4.0

NOTES:
….Leole, could you work on your english some? I don’t understand a word, sorry =P[This review has been edited by PHT]

Bjarni wanted me to rate this tileset, so I will.

Palette:
The palette actually turned out pretty well in my opinion. The movie posters look very good for 256 colors, and there’s even a textured background. It’s not perfect, but Very good work.
8/10
Masking:
The masking looks good to me. I didn’t get stuck on any of my 3 runs through the example level. I don’t understand what could really be better about the masking than you can’t get stuck in it.
10/10
Required stuff:
This level has most of the required stuff. It has all the destruct blocks except pepper spray and electro blaster. It has vines and poles and spikes, but no sucker tubes. It also has text signs, exit signs, and hooks.
9/10
Eyecandy:
This is where the level falls short. The basic ground is boring: Varying shades of orange, brown and red squares. There are a few movie posters, a poorly drawn guy with guns, a poorly drawn police car, and a weird yellow road in terms of eyecandy, but no foreground or background stuff, unless you count the textured background.
2/10
Overall:
The tileset is pretty good in most areas, but falls short on the eyecandy. You can download this if you want, but with eyecandy like that, I don’t really think you could use it.
Rating: 7.25 ~ 7.2

I’m bored, so i decided to review this tileset.
Bad Boys II, By The Real One Bjarni:
FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
Yay, another tileset realase. actually, i must admit this set is much better than i thought, Graphics look really nice on some tiles,( bad boys posters for example )
and i really can’t find flaws from them.. or atleast major ones. Masking is fine too.. and there’s some mask messages. Slopes and other things are masked rightly. tile quality would be better thought, slope tiles look really dull. so does that brown man with guns. there’s also a white/blue hill-like thing.. which is supposed to be a police car.. i was surprised when i saw that textured background. it looks nice, too bad its ripped.. and then edited. Well, i think this is average tileset. with some bad and good tiles.. download or not? my review should tell everything.
TILE QUALITY:
Tile quality is better what i thought it would be. some tiles like those posters and texturebackgroud look really nice, and i can’t find complaiments from them. nice work, keep it up. too bad that some tiles look dull like i mentioned above. this set has different colored slopes, which look really dull. there’s also a tile which looks like road.. which look dull too. there’s poorly drawn gun / police car tile too, and i really dislike those. well, no more complaiments.
PROS:Some nice looking tiles.
CONS:Some tiles are really dull..
COLORS:
Ick. colors are really boring.. usually they are brown or yellow.. which looks really dull, and makes levels look boring. multicolored tileset would be nice. hmm.. police car and texture background use other colors though, which saves this section from getting low rating. anyway, use more colors next time..
PROS:´Some other colors than brown.
CONS:Colors are mostly brown, or yellow.. or somewhere beetween those two.
EASE TO USE:
Heh. This tileset is extremely easy to use. whcih is really good thing. too bad that in my opnion this is too easy to use.. or something like that. ;P
but anyway, i won’t remove points from that.well, my conclusion is that this is really easy to use, which can be really good/bad thing. no more comments.
PROS:Really easy use
CONS:nothing really.. ;P
MASKING:
Masking is quite good in my opnion. slopes have good masking. police cars and other things could be better though. overall this tileset has quite nice masking, or atleast better than i expected. no more comments. =OO
PROS:Quite nice masking
CONS:could be better.
TILES:
HJmm.. lots of tiles. There’s no background tiles.. or atleast there’s no good background tileset you coukld use.. not really a good thing. there’s some useful tiles though, like slopes.. yay.
well, this tileset has some eyecandy too.. like posters and poorly drwan blocks and some man with guns. ´police car could be better too..
PROS:Some nice tiles
CONS:Some bad tiles
CONCLUSION:
Well.. average tiles. nothing more to say.. whee. im tired because of this review.. well, im finished. 6.5 for reasons i mentioned.

Now I’ve never seen this movie, which may be a good thing, so I can review this without bias. Anyway…

Tiles: Well, we got quite a few “Bad Boys” related tiles, which seem to come from movie posters. Along the left, we have some destruct blocks with some handguns, a “!” block, a “?” block, a TNT block, a block with a poorly drawn blaster, a block with a poorly drawn seeker, and a block with a poorly drawn fireball. We then come to a textured BG (good), a block with some green things on it, a poorly drawn planet, a strange white thing I assume to be a police car, a strange blob type person with handguns, a lone handgun, some blocks, slopes, a brick wall and some event tiles. Not bad, except for the poorly drawn things (I assume the blob person was poorly drawn on purpose) and a general lack of theme. The colours are all shades of brown, and can be a bit dull.
Tiles: 7.0

Masking: Seems to work, with some nice mask messages. Nothing amazing, but no jagged edges or anything of the sort.
Masking: 8.0

Theme: Unfortunately, this tileset lacks much of a theme. Sure, there are some posters and some handguns, but remove those and you have a fairly drab block tileset. It’s hard to think of some kind of location one could make out of this tileset.
Theme: 4.0

Event Tiles: Let’s see…spikes, signs, V and H poles, a vine and a hook. Unfortunately, the sucker tubes are missing in action. Shame; you almost had a perfect score in this category.
Event Tiles: 8.0

Overall: Not bad, but look past the fancy posters and all you have is a generic MEZish tileset, without the vibrant colours of mezz’s work. Masking and things like that are all good, but you just need to work on a theme.
Overall Score: 7.2

So, I feel I have to rate this today, so I’ll do now.

CHECKLIST:
[x] Single Player Mode available
[ ] Multiplayer Mode available

LVL DESIGN AND EYECANDY AND…STUFF
Lvl Design isn’t the best, it even after fixing has a lot of bugs, and also if both levels would be one, the level would be too small. Also, at the end of the second level the boss doesn’t appear anymore (maybe he sleeps :-P). Eyecandy, well, nothing spectacular. It’s ok. There isn’t much sprite eyecandy, but a good background. What sucks is the structure, because level 2 is almost the same as level 1, only some minor changes (airboard, boss at the end). There are several more bugs, but I’m too lazy to tell them all.

GAMEPLAY
Not really the greatest part of the “pack” (I think it’s too short for a pack). Playtime is about…3 minutes or something. There are even after Bjarni’s fixing several bugs (I will list them later), and there aren’t any items like coins, gems, food, etc. (only little ammo at start).

AMMO AND OTHER WEAPONS STUFF
Ammo isn’t all that great. In level 1 there are some seeker at the start. In level 2 it’s some toaster ammo. That’s all. But, well, you won’t need more ammo…

BADDIES
Not much variety. In level 1 there are some turtles at the start (very easy to defeat). And over the spike pit are some flying lizards. Oh, and at the end there is a TufBoss, which appears some time, some time not (the first time I played, he does, other times not…) I think there’s something wrong with the activate boss event.

HURT EVENTS AND OTHER OBSTACLES
In both levels there is a whole line of spiky vines on the ground. Well, also in level 1 the vine what should help you coming over the spikes seems to be an obstacle because sometimes you can grab it, sometimes not.

TILESETS
The levels are using the carrotus tileset (day and night version). This one is very overused, but Bjarni made this pack 3 years ago, so he didn’t knew that this tileset was going to be overused as he made the levels.

USE OF TILESETS
The tileset use is…sprite tiles isn’t used very good (not much tile variety). But the background is good. Nothing more to say.

CONCLUSION
Updated? Well, I think the levels aren’t updated completely (I said I would list all bugs so I will do that now).
Bugs:
Level 1:
-After the first platform there’s a hole. If you fall through, you land on spikes.
-If you fell on the spikes you can run to the right sight and finish the level (I don’t think Bjarni wanted to let players finish it while running over spikes).
Level 2:
-Boss doesn’t appear all the time.
-If you defeat the boss (if he appeared before) he says “sooper dooper secret” or something… Why that???

In both levels there are still some tilebugs (I think).

So, I don’t think you should download this, only (like Labratkid said) if you are Bjarni fans.

NOTES:
Bjarni, if you want to fix a level, then do it right. Also if people say make the level longer, than not only say “I fixed the bugs and now it’s ready”. MAKE IT LONGER, GUY. Final rating is a 4.

Good luck for your next project

I’m a Bjarni fan! So I downloaded them.

When I saw the first one, I thought that it had OK eye candy, but it could have been more. There are a few enemies at first, and you get some seekers. I should have saved them. The next part of it is a vine, with those heli-lizards around it. Unfortunately, I fell, but I got back up by using them as platforms.

And in the second level, you go a little ways, have to hop on this moving platform, and then you get an airboard! (What Bjarni level would be complete without one?)

Anyway, they were fairly good, but small as Labrat said, but I’ve seen better out of Bjarni. Make more levels like the one with the Tuf Turtle City. That was the best one of yours I’ve played.

Well, since I don’t have time for a review, I’m just going to comment on these levels since Bjarni asked me to. They’re pretty fun to play, but they’re really small. The eyecandy isn’t all that bad, either. They’re really small, though. Bjarni, you should try to make bigger levels. The bigger the better, most people say. Overall, these are two small, but fun levels. No download reccomendation, really, but if you’re a Bjarni fan, you can download these.[This review has been edited by labratkid]

hmmm nod bad at all! bud i dont now what rating to give it sorry

Wow, Bjarni. Nice work. :) You have talent.
