Well here is my review!!!
Eyecandy:
Good!!! There where no tilebugs and you used more layers. There where bushes treas and stuff on layer 5,6 and 7.
Item placement:
Good!!! There was a lot of ammo and there are 4 kinds of powerups Bouncers, Rf missle and pepperspray and that ammo 8.
There are 2 carrots.
Other:
Okay!!! There are some secrets. The leveldesign is great. The 2 bases are fair placed there is not 1 base that is easyer to go to. You used a good tileset of Agama.
This is a good CTF level here a —8.0—

Aaaaah… the magic of the JCS 1.23 patch. :) Well, onto the review:
I thought this level was fairly hard, but I don’t know what some of you are complaining about it being ‘too hard’… the difficulty is just perfect. Nice and hard. There’s nothing too special with the eyecandy, some glitches but it wasn’t too bad. The enemy placement was good as well. The pickups placement wasn’t very good, there was not enough ammo. But overall, this level is a good level, but I thought it looked a little rushed. Nice job. :)
Aaaah… the magic of the JCS 1.23 patch. This level is very mediocre.
True, true, it is an odd boss, but I doubt anyone would want to use this. :P
It’s for nothing, I think.
JelZe, I made a DW edit with the JJ1 tileset, if you want to take a look at that. Look at Jazz 1: Warzone v3.0 or something of the sort. Anyway, the only thing changed here is the eyecandy, so that’s all I can really rate this on… Well, the eyecandy is rather ugly. You removed the shield, too, and that’s good… overall, I’ll just have to agree with JelZe. I seem to be a bit hesitant rating things that add little features to Battle1. There are some isolated turnips that get in the way when you’re running on flat ground. The warp to the seeker powerup is too low. There is a warp near the warp to the seeker powerup that takes you through a slow sucker tube, displaying DX DC’s logo. It ruins the gameplay, as you can hide in there, and you can accidently go in there. I’ll have to take off points.
I suppose if I must rate, I’ll rate it 5.2.[This review has been edited by labratkid]
A remake?
Well, you shouldn’t make remakes of old levels, because most people hates when doing this.
Alltough, here’s my review
GAMEPLAY/DESIGN:
Gameplay was the same as in the official Battle1 from Cliff Bleszinski.
Only changed thing is RF powerup (not bubble shield) and some text events that says that this remake is remade by the remaker of remakeable things Dx.
PROS: RF pu instead of bubble shield
CONS: remake of old battle1 from Cliff Bleszinski
RATING: N/A
TILESET/TILESET USE:
Dx used the Thermal K tileset, a mixture of Carrotus and Darn Nation. The eyecandy is a bit better than in battle1, but not all that interesting (textured bg/foreground??). The tiles all fit together properly. Nothing more to say I think.
PROS: a bit better eyecandy than in the original battle1
CONS: no textured bg or foreground
RATING: 6.0
WEAPON/ITEM/ENEMY PLACEMENT:
Like in official battle1, only RF powerup instead of bubble shield.
PROS: RF POWERUP
CONS: remake
RATING: N/A
REPLAY/FUN FACTOR/ORIGINALITY:
replay is like in battle1 good, also fun factor but it isn’t made by Dx so no rating. Because it is a remake there isn’t any originality.
PROS: -
CONS: -
RATING: N/A
OVERALL:
Overall ok remake, alltough the eyecandy could be a lot more interesting.
PROS: RF POWERUP
CONS: eyecandy could be better
FINAL RATING: 5.0
GAMEPLAY: D
Flow: N/A
Layout: N/A
Creativity: F
Bugs: A
EYECANDY: C
Tileset Use: C
Eyecandy Look: C
Creativity: C
Bugs: A
WEAPON PLACEMENT: N/A
THE FINAL GRADE: D
THE FINAL RATING: 5.0
DOWNLOAD RECCOMENDATION: Maybe
EXAMPLE FOR A GOOD REMAKE: -*

*no remakes are good because the gameplay and stuff is copied from other levels.[This review has been edited by PHT]
Why? Why always Battle 1? Why not battle 2 or 3, or one of the CTf levels? Tell me!!!
Since this is yet another battle 1 remake, I’ll just discuss the changes made to this level.
Tileset:
This version uses Kaven’s Carrotus 1 edit Thermal K1 (I still don’t know how the got the name), which is just Carrotus with a reddish palette, some lava, added wooden platforms and “fire flowers” (no, not the ones you find in the Mario games, but plants with fire in the cantre).
Lay-out:
Perfectly intact, except for the large drop at the left-most area: A tree at the bottom is in the way.
Eye Candy:
Pretty basic, just like the Official Battle 1: some plants, carrots and turnips scattered around, lava walls, and lava as background. It’s a shame the lava bg moves at the same speed at layer 4. Also, the tileset hasn’t been used to it’s full extent, but that’s a personal thing. One thing tho: avoid having to use layers 5 to 7 to add eye candy to layer 4. I personally hold a grudge to that, since some people (including me) play online in low detail (which removes layers 1,2,5,6 and 7). Thankfully, there aren’t any tile bugs in low detail.
Ammo, goodies, stuff that’s good:
Once again, everything in Battle 1 is carried over to this version, except for the bubble shield, which is understandable. Everyone hates shield users (at least in my time :p). Instead of the shield, you’ll find a RF-Powerup (very good alternative)
Music:
What music, it just isn’t there!
Miscellaneous:
One thing I like to comment about is the next level setting: it’s set to the Official Battle 2 level (the Tubelectric one), which is disappointing. I would have liked it if it were set to itself, or at least made a remake of every battle in cycle…
Verdict:
A pretty decent remake of Battle 1. Only recommended for the “Battle 1 remake collectors” (I dunno if there are any) or for those who wanna see a different battle 1.

Changed battle1..
Its nice.
but i give it a 6.5..
because its only changed with more eyecandy.
a 6.5 from me.[This review has been edited by 007]
(Unsupported rating removal edit. If I changed the eyecandy of Zappo Egypt, would you give me a 6.5? I think not. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]
Put a extra “very” in the title please. And if you upload bosses, just upload them all in ONE level. ONE! ONE! NOT 863587325831258312753285312!
i used layer 8 (DUH! )7-6-5-4-3-2-1

Eyecandy – Okay / good.
The eyecandy is good… there should be diamonds, though. Take some extra time to put them in. The waterfalls are kind of ugly, IMO. And there’s NO BACKGROUND!!!! Put layer 7’s. You don’t even take my advice in these reviews, do you?
Gameplay – Good
Good gameplay. It’s a bit Spaz biased, because he can jump out of the spike pit, and all. It’s also much easier for Spaz to win.
Enemies – Good
Pretty nice placement… a decent challenge.
Overall – Good
Download – Sure.
Replay – No.
Someone, can you tell us the bad thing? Reviews are usually done to tell the bad things, not the good things. And, you did overrate, kind of =P
[This review has been edited by labratkid]
Master Cheater, if you average your two ratings together, it comes to about 5.7. Not 8.2.[This review has been edited by labratkid][This review has been edited by labratkid]
What was layers six and seven used for?[This review has been edited by labratkid]
Let me rephrase this – put MOUNTAINS in the back of your level. Put trees and stuff. Look at the background in capture3.j2l. THAT’s a background.[This review has been edited by labratkid]
Well… I don’t see actually Eyecandy.. My brain thinks that Eyecandy is only supposed to be in the other layers…
But.. Here goes:
Level:
Well the level is pretty basic… Also good and don’t use bees cause they’re ANNOYING also with the generators
Rating: 5.5 (cause of the generatable bees)
Eyecandy: Hmm… Good, just probably something cool could’ve been used in the background
Rating: 6.0
so then
Rating: 8.2
(Extremely odd rating removal. I fail to see how you got 8.2 out of 5.5 and 6.0. Feel free to re-rate this upload. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]

Well here is my review!!!
Eyecandy:
Okay!!! No tilebugs and more layers are yust nothing more to say.
Enemy placement:
Fine!!! This time not to bad placed but why is it not good let me tell ya
- Only 2 kinds of enemy`s.
-after a suckertube you will get dropped on a doggy dog that hurts.
That was the only 2 problems with the enemy placement.
Item placement:
Good!!! enough food not to many enough ammo not to many and no gems but i didn`t missed the gems.
Other:
Okay!!! The level lengthe is a little bit to short. The music fits in the level but wat i did`t like is the boss because it is so strange and i could not beat it. And where you fight the boss the area is to small next time a
place to fight the boss.
It`s not bad but also not good here a ()7.2()
Satan!
Waddle Dee don’t rate stuff you beta test.
(Reply from an administrator: There is nothing wrong with doing so. -Trafton)[This review has been edited by Trafton AT]
Eyecandy – Okay
The eyecandy is merely okay. There is no background (layers 6 and 7). I’ve told you 1,000 times to put one in. The sprite layer eyecandy is acceptable, though. But having no background doesn’t cut it. Also, in the textured background, make it fade to blue, rather than black. It’ll look nicer.
Gameplay – Okay
The gameplay is okay… average. It’s not too hard, not too easy. There isn’t much ammo or food, though.
Enemy placement – Good
Acceptable. It makes a pretty good challenge, with the bees and all.
Overall – Okay
Another average level. Make longer levels and put backgrounds on them. Then, I’ll rate higher.
Download: No.
Replay: No.
Error to read from attempt…..bla bla[This review has been edited by PHT]
