Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Eh, pretty bog standard battle level with conventional gameplay, placement, eyecandy, and pretty much everything really. It’s not bad I suppose, but it’s just so normal that it just feels very boring.

I played this level in DarkSonic’s server two days ago. It’s fairly small, making it easy to memorize, but annoying to play with many players. There are various tile errors at one point in the level, which is pretty annoying, but doesn’t detract from the gameplay. Ammo is well divided and placed.

In the end, it’s a fairly good level with a couple of things that could be better.

I’ll review this level as no-one else did. I saw that this level was unrated and if someone doesn’t get a review for a level, it’s not fun.

This is a level using Swamps of the Sleeping Jaguar and it’s made by Cheese. The level’s name looks interesting, so let’s find out what this level is.

When I first looked at the level, I found out that the layout is a bit weird. There is only one way to each base, and there are dead ends near them. The distance between the bases is quite a lot. It’s hard to get around in the level, and it’s not too easy to see everything because of a bit confusing eye candy. However, there is a nice spring placement and some One Ways and Float-Ups to get around the level. The gameplay is not very good, but it’s decent. Although there is no good border around the level. This surely has to be fixed to prevent a flag bug.

The eye candy, which has some possibilities with the tileset, does its job. But there is some confusing eye candy like near the bases, which make it hard to see everything. This could be a problem, but not a major one. Anyway, the overall eye candy is good enough. I have seen better, but that’s pretty obvious.

The first thing I would say about the placement is : Too many carrots and too many Power-Ups. A level of this size should have 1 Full NRG, and maybe 1/2 +1 carrots, but not more. This level has 2 Full Energy carrots and 4 +1 carrots. That’s way too much. It would be hard to kill someone if you ever play the level, I guess. Anyway, the ammo placement is decent. There is quite a lot of ammo in the level and some boring shapes of ammo, but it’s still not that bad. The Ice Power-Ups aren’t needed in my opinion, because ice isn’t that good in CTF. It could always be fun, but 2 Ice Power-Ups is just too many. About the other Power-Ups.. they’re decently placed, I guess.

So, this was a review by me.. hope you liked it, because at least someone cares about the level. This is not a bad level.. but not good either. I give this level a 6.7. You can download it if you want, but it’s not a level you MUST have.

Alright, it has been re-uploaded with them all in 32 colors.
And yes, it is easy, just go to Edit > Select all and copy/paste.

I would like to mention that the original JJ2 tilesets were drawn by hand without color reduction. It is perfectly possible to make tilesets without PSP8 or something – in fact, you generally get better results.
In any case, the fact that you didn’t bother to do the color reduction yourself or make them easily usable for a tileset is really rather odd.

They should be using 32 colors by default, not 256…

Didnt Labratkid already maked something like this?

Well…….This level is called ‘Spaced out’. Since NOOBs 4000th download, there have been more rating over 8 than i’ve ever seen, with your level be one of them??

EYECANDY: 18/25

The backround has been used OK and so has the sprite layer. At the bottom of the level, the foreground mountains block your view.

GAMEPLAY: 17/25

There is a lot of gameplay at the top of the level (including transporters)
but at the bottom if you stomp the BRIDGE OUT obstacle, you get stuck and this text saying DOH! appears.

ITEMS: 16/25

A bit of ammo and a PowerUp but nothing big.

SIZE: 9/15

A bit small. You could make some bigger spaces to move around in.

MUSIC: 7/10

Basic, JJ2 style.
