The tileset was great, but the download type sais “battle”, and because of that I will only rate the level.
I don’t think it is too great really, and that is why I gave it a 5. Anything below 5 I consider bad, and anything above it I consider above average. So basicly, this level is average.
I may have given it a 6, but I really really hate how you have to go up with those airboards to get to the level. What is the point of that? The weapon placement in this level is OK, but it could be better. Same goes with the eyecandy.
I can’t say much more about this level. I don’t like the layout much at all, so you can’t get any higher than a 5 from me.
EDIT:
Ok, I have changed my rating to take the tileset into consideration. I am too lazy to edit my review itself though, so blah. The score has been changed from 5 to 6.5. I give the tileset a 7.5 and the level a 5. 6.5 is the average rounded up because I am such a nice person.[This review has been edited by EvilMike]
I like these conversions, and I may even use one if I feel like it. I will not give this a higher score however, because I notice a few problems in the tilesets.
The main problem is the masking. While it is good in the majority of them, some of them have what I call “bumpy walls”. What I mean by that is the masking on the walls is not completly flat. This can hinder the flow of a level because people don’t really like being able to cling to walls when they are trying to fall, and in extreme cases the player may even get stuck. It is usually best to make the masks of your levels as simple as possible by avoiding bumps and whatnot and trying to make every tile have smothe edges.
Another less noticable flaw is that the animated tiles do not quite match up perfectly, but it is hard to make them good, so I will not hold that aganst you too much. I also found that that two or three of the tilesets are a bit lacking in that they are missing a few tiles or don’t have destruct scenery.
Overall though, this tileset pack has some quality jazz1 conversions and it has earned a 7.5 out of 10 from me. I reccomend that you download this.
Very good lvl and an OK tileset and well chosen music. (It rocks, but not more than the pyramids though ;) There isn’t really anything wrong with the tileset, only the lvl. I’ve discovered some bugs ya might wanna fix Cell: the lowest engine of the spacecraft has a gap where ppl can get stuck at. That’s all. Good weapons placement and blablablah and so on :) It’s an 7.7!
Cheers,
White Rabbit.
REPLY TO EVILMIKE: Oops! Sry, I must’ve done a mistake in the uploading. ;-P It’s supposed to be “Mutiple”, not “Battle” so plz review the tileset too Evilmike. (Or else Cell is definetely gonna do something to me…argh!)[This review has been edited by White Rabbit]
Well, well…now what is this? More tileset conversions by Cell? They’re very good actually but since I dunno what the original tilesets look like, I can’t compare, sry. All I’m gonna say is: Good work Cell, you’ve earnt this 8. :-)
Cheers,
White Rabbit.
The Level design was very well. The only problem I see is that the weapons are all bunched up together, that’s not quite fun. You should separate the weapons. And the Dock idea was petty good, but annoyingly people might wait there and not come out. Put about 1 or 2 more carrots also.
Good music chosen also!
They look good, and they look like mirror images of the original good job you earned this!
Well, it’s a accurate (not sure HOW accurate) conversion of Jazz 1: Battleships that seems to be only missing one or two tiles I can think of.
The battle level is rather average, with some nice placement of things but hindered by the annoying large outer space area. (Boring)
The music is good.

I would rate this, but when I tried to download it, it said: this page cannot be displayed.
Thanx guyz, even though i`ve not made a conversion in a long time… I`m working on a level pack using Mystic Legends tilesets. When thats done, i`m planing to maybe make a improved Medivo conversion(beter rain animations, wall tiles, destruct scenenry, etc,etc).

Okay, let’s keep it short: i really, really like the eyecandy and tile placement in “The boneyard”: it’s pretty original and Cell obviously spend some time on it!
As for the playability of the level, i have to (partly) agree with Flea: the poles can definitely get on your nerves! Everything else (weapon and event placement) is of good quality i think, apart from some stupid signs (“go to bed early, brush your teeth”) and one very questionable tile arrangement at the top.
Music is playing fine in the background, must be your fault, Fleaness :-P
Conclusion: if you like the D*a*m*n tileset and Cell’s fresh style of putting the tiles together, you will like this a lot (so go ahead and DOWNLOAD!).[This review has been edited by Aiko]
It’s really hard to move around in this level (especially for jazz).
The poles are REALLY annoying
The tiles in the background layers are annoying and I don’t like the background too much either.
The weapon placement was ok.
BUT…there’s no music…
This gets a 6 from me
Where’d all the tiles go? It coulda been better…
Not too many tiles here…. but there aren’t too many in the real Ceramicus either, come to think of it!
This one’s got all the tiles from the original JJ1 conversion by Epic Megagames plus afew new spikes and a logo! Really kewl!
I’m a really big fan of your JJ1 conversions, and I’ve got basically all of ‘em! This one really stood out; it has plenty of tiles, and some new ones, too. However, it’s a hard tileset to use to build levels… ofcourse, a better one would be hard too; Letni’s a tough tileset for anyone!
There is something wrong. I can’t download any of his tilesets!
you’re one of the best conversion builders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hmmm…. a nice conversio, but I just can’t seem to give higher than a 7… they’re just too easy to make. Now f you make an original one, THAT would be nce. anywa, good work on this one; try a custom soon.
Fquist fixed it. It had something to do with 2 of my acounts that fused together or something…
I think so, yes. I dont think i left out more then about 10 tiles…
