Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Very well done, and a breath of fresh air among the myriads of top3-based tests out there (as was the original Mighty Switch Test). This looks cool, and is original, well-made and well-explained, though it is extremely difficult, and I will readily admit I didn’t manage to get that far in it. However, the level includes a way to go to a challenge (or ‘incident’) of your choice, so even if some are too difficult you can still look around to see if others are more to your liking, which is great.

There is one thing I wish would be changed – besides the difficulty, but I assume there is a group of players for whom this test’s difficulty is merely challenging rather than frustrating. This is the animation that plays when you fail a test and need to start over. Even if it’s only a second or two, it adds up and gets a little annoying when you’re trying to get past a hard test and failing often. This is the one thing I like better in traditional tests, where you simply warp back to your starting position. Since this level is already configurable to an extent, making this another toggle would be a great QoL improvement. Apart from that though, this is a polished, clever, impressive test that you should definitely check out.

This is great!

This sole program kept content creation in jj2 alive. Fills the gap to make jj2+ and content creation streamlined. Everything that is here is already top notch, i hope to see future updates that make tileset/palette editing even easier. Nevertheless this deserves a 10.0 already.

Cool emoticons Violet pro
New, Better and epic!

Sure rating is 10.0 ;D

This is a useful script, although i’m not a big fan of how the emotes look. Turning them off is possible, but only for you. A better solution in my opinion would be if they didn’t replace the old emotes, but were a new set. For communication purposes I like it more if the sender and receiver see the same message.

Really good

This level provides an interesting environment to explore and fight in, but it is beyond too complex to be playable in CTF and thus fails to fulfill its primary purpose. At 6 very wide floors, the only way it’s possible to find a flag holder who doesn’t want to be found is through sheer coincidence.

WTF can l say about this pack of weapons ?!
They are the coolest weapons I have ever seen!

The best weapon of them is the roller :D

Absolute must play.
The sound, the visuals and the scripts all make it an absolute 10!
It was simply the best JJ2 experience I’ve had. If you’re reading this, don’t hesitate and play it now!

Cool weapons I can use them in my server and they are actually made in AngleScript
So .. I want to tell you something about them ..

First the blaster… It is about a fire that when you shoot it, it comes back to you, cool weapon

Second thr bouncer, it is like a digging machine that when you shoot it, it digs the ground, and it becomes unseen that makes the player have a hit without knowing why he had this hit. However, It is cool to make in a server.

Third the freezer, it looks like a flame weapon but freezes instead of toasting the player, but the bug in it that it finishes quickly, but I forgive this detail.

Forth the seeker, it looks like an electric fire that goes to a certain area then it increases in length if speed is fast.

Then the RF, it goes from two directions on left and right, so the player has known how to shoot to down.

Now the toaster is changed to a ring of bombs, that is cool for throwing the player away instead of running away from him.

The TNT, is changed to an area like the hurt event in JCS. Like a spike thing or another…

Now the fireball, it becomes multiple when comes to a certain area (like 1—2——4)

Finally the electro blaster (And it is the best one if them)
It is about a fire of electricity that goes up then goes down like a rocket, it is cool that you can fight of a masked wall.

So final rating is 8.0

DOWNLOAD IS RECOMMENDED!!!

Ok…First of all … This editor is actually weird and now I am going to talk about the details of this editor. (Bugs “-” and goods”+”)
+ It is good for paletting and drawing new tiles and editing tileset.
+ Good for making a j2as without opening the program, but you have to set tge default program first.
- Paletting is very difficult that you do to change the tileset color, I may ruin it, so I advise you to be much better in coloring the tileset.
+ You can search for events without hacing a long time while looking for an event.
+ Adding new layers is very good, that you can make about 100 layer with a forest and natural areas, makes the level good.
+ Instead of typing a number, you can check a box, or chossing the type easily.
- This program needs framework.net 4.8 to work, firstly the program didn’t save changes, but when I tried to install framework.net before, it was not supported for opering my system, so I had to change my windows.
+ And finally I see a jazz jackrabbit 2 editor that can browse for music and play it while making a level, so it won’t be nassecery to know the music file name correctly, by typing the first two letters of the file, it appeares completely.
+ Yeah, and the four texturesare now set! thanks.
+ Flipping vertically is very good.
+ I can name this editor to a tileset creator! Because of editing tiles and adding new tilesets!
BUT ALTHOUGH EVERYTHING! I RATE 10.0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think its boring but fine

This level is pretty cool and I like it….Looks like an Egyptian level that is made by another tool :D

THE COOLEST UPLOAD FOR YOU (And I think Bl18 is nice too)
But some cool tricks and intellegence that changes the game
LOL….That can be anotther game not JJ2+++ only!!
YOU ARE THE KING OF JJ2++!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Design-wise, Violet’s best level to date. You can clearly tell that this was made by someone familiar with actual game design philosophies. My biggest issue is that the boss fight would be a perfect time to put players’ skills acquired during the level to the test, but none of the cool custom mechanics taught earlier are brought back for it.

This level manages to stay relatively true to a traditional JJ2 single player level while introducing plenty of new twists on top of it. There are the usual enemies (with a black coat of paint), coins and gems (ehh skulls) to collect, and crates to stomp in order to progress. On the other hand there are sticky swinging platforms on rails, black blobs a.k.a. void that hurts you, rewarding praying spots, bombs that make the ground act like a springcord, and more.

Overall the level design is linear with some secrets and small detours here and there. Not very difficult but enough challenge to keep you alert at all times. The environmental hazards are definitely going to hit you more than the enemies. Especially those blobs placed right above springs were tedious to avoid with proper timing.

The aesthetics stand out with visual props everywhere. The repetitive music is not really a problem since this level took me just a bit longer to complete than the original JJ2 levels.

I did experience some FPS drops to around 15 – 20 in a few places when a lot of void blobs were on the screen at once. Different computers and OSes perform better or worse, but it shows that scripted levels can be CPU heavy at times!

And at last, the boss is original in that it doesn’t have it’s head as the weak spot. Video games quickly make you learn that heads are what you’d hit for the biggest damage. Not here! It’s innovative and makes you use different parts of your brain to beat it. Also, it’s weak spot is also it’s safe spot at times.

Thanks for reading this drunk nighttime review, now go and play this!

Good level design, good mechanics, good aesthetics (if you like pastel goth, that is), good final boss. If you’re into JJ2 Single Player levels, this is a must-play.

Perfect

One suggestion from me would be this: the colors of the buildings in the background should be reversed. That way it would look more realistic.
