Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

THEME: Is there a theme? It’s hard to tell. It might be a desert, but it seems a little too dark to be a desert, and too many clouds.

GRAPHICS: The platform is a solid brown color. The background is a textured background which does not work in 16-bit. The background eyecandy are a yellow circle and a solid white thing. The only things in the entire tileset with any shading at all are the tiles taken from official Jj2 tilesets.
Pros: The sign looks almost kind of semi-nearly ok.
Cons: No shading, no texture, no quality. Textured background doesn’t work, wall signs are almost invisible.
Rating: 2.0

INVENTORY: H/V poles (ripped), various blocks (ripped), spikes, signs, vine.
Pros: Some things there.
Cons: Several things are ripped, no hooks, no variation.
Rating: 3.0

ORIGINALITY: Nothing to speak of.
Pros: N/A
Cons: N/A
Rating: 1.2

COMPETITION: Assuming you can find a theme to this thing, I think anything else with this theme will be better.

EASE OF USE: On the plus side, it seems fairly easy to use, although the top corners of the platforms are done rather poorly, and seriously hamper level design. Also there is no evident bottom for platforms.
Pros: N/A
Cons: A few errors.
Rating: 3.0

MASKING: The masking is ok, but as you might expect, it needs some work on the jagged areas.
Pros: Ok.
Cons: Jags.
Rating: 3.0

OVERALL: I’d say this is a no. The author tried, but the result is not paticularly satisfactory.
Pros: There is worse stuff out there.
Cons: Graphics, originality, bugs…
Rating: 2.2

There really aren’t too many decorations. The ones that are there seem hard to use It’s very small. On the plus side, it seems easy to use, and has poles, destructable scenery and vines. It also has spikes. After looking at the example level, I could see what could be done. The back layer seems buggy.

My inspirational thought for the day:
Don’t worry about it Bjani, my tilesets are about this quality too. The drawings are ok, just make more tiles next time.

To Violet: It’s a sun and a cloud, not just a “yellow thing” and a “white thing” (You could have at least said “fluffy white thing”)

I make all my tilesets with paint… Oh, point proven…

Hey, what else should you make it with?[This review has been edited by mikeejimbo]
