LEVEL: Devil May Cry!

I’ve never played DMC myself so I dunno what it’s like.

You can open the level in Captain Cook. Download it here: http://www.jazz2online.com/J2Ov2/downloads/info.php?levelID=3316.
Go into the options on Captain Cook and check the box “Show files that are not shown in Home Cooked Levels.”
Search for the level, click on it, click Play and enjoy.

Anyway here is the review:

EYECANDY:

You used a JJ2 tileset. Forgotten what the tileset is called. It was used very well. Forgot to mention the backgrounds. They look great. 8/10

GAMEPLAY:

This level is quite long and very hard. 8/10

OBSTACLES/ENEMIES:

There was loads of enemies and obstacles. The darkness made it really hard for me to see what enemies were coming. I died like 5 times in this level! 8/10

PICKUPS:

There was TNT everywhere but I couldn’t see any point in this since TNT is not very useful in defeating enemies. 100 coins were in the level, very hard to find. There was lots of Gems in the Bonus Warp and 3 Power-Ups. 8/10

TOTAL: 40/50

OTHER POINTS:

You hid the level in the Home Cooked List. Don’t do this otherwise how else can we play the level.
Text events were in German. Please write them in English next time.
No points added or taken off.

SCORE = 40 / 5 = 8
FINAL SCORE = 8/10

DR: Yes.

I hope this review is good enough.

SMALL TOWN
EYECANDY: Nothing special, but good.
ENEMIES: Well placed, maybe too much. What are Fencers doing here?
LAYER USE: You used all layers fine, but Layer 1 is empty. That doesn’t count, because Layer 1 is almost useless.
AMMO: Seekers. Good placed, right where you need them.
FOOD: There is almost no food in this level, but you don’t need sugarrushes.
SIZE: Well, just like you said, small.

MEDIEVAL MADNESS
EYECANDY: Nothing special, but good.
ENEMIES: There are enemy generators! Why? These birds are annoying! There are too much of them!
LAYER USE: Annoying. Foreground layers are used way too much. Sprite layer and the background is OK.
AMMO: Frostbiters? There is too much TNT. You never need it, except at the TNT destruct blocks.
Food: Enough for a sugarrush.

Tilesets: TSF to 1.23 conversions, they are used well.

Final Rating: 6.0
Download recommendation: If you like challenging levels.

hi i’ve played your level. it’s very cool.

eyecandy: the eyecandy is very good. there are lots of things to look at.
but sometimes you don’t know where you are because it’s then to busy

music: the sound is good it makes the level o.k. :7.7

gameplay: there are a couple of things, the level is very short,maybe you can change that in your next level. but now the positive things, i like it that you must find the coins, to warp to the bonus. and the bad guys are the most of the time “hidding” : 8.0

bonus: i give you an extra bonus because it was a nice game to play.

7.7

eyecandy: 7.5

Firstly, this level is a demo and not sure if these are allowed.

EYECANDY: 14/20

The eyecandy in this level is good for the backround. You didn’t make the textured backround move which make the level boring. You missed the oppertunity to add foreground eyecandy which gives the level more detail. Instead there is no foreground eyecandy which leaves the level boring. Overall, layers 5, 6 and 7 are OK but layer 8 doesn’t move and the foreground layers have no eyecandy.

GAMEPLAY: 16/20

The gameplay in the level is not bad. There are some features such as the shell where you have to go under it and ends normal with a boss. Most of the level is in water which is good but haveing the uterus boss underwater make the level harder and as if its ‘blocking the exit’. The bonus warp appears to early which limits the amount of coins and doesn’t give the coins an opportunity to space out. Overall, the gameplay is suitable but there is room for improvement.

ENEMIES: 17/20

The enemy placement is OK. There is water which opens up an opportunity for fish. There are crabs aswell and the level ends with a boss. There is not a completely wide range of enemies in the level but some enemies are sometimes overused.

ITEMS: 14/20

Like I said about the bonus warp being placed to early it scrunches the coins up. There is alot of freeze ammo and nothing else so that is a downside. You have overused the carrots. In a full sized level there should be a maximum of 4 or 5 carrots depending on the size. Overall, there are too many carrots and one type of ammo.

OTHERS: 15/20

The level is small but that is all. (Hey that rhymes:))

BONUSES AND STUFF:

Demo sized -1

TOTAL SCORE: 75/100

FINAL COMMENT:

I might be overrating but rules are rules.

EDIT²: Oh. I was kinda mislead by the name of the level. It’s a good idea to not name your level the same name of the tileset you used. :P

Anyways, onto the review.

First Glance: Seems like yet another boring SP level. But this isn’t your ordinary SP level, for better or worse.

Gameplay: While you get a good amount of ammo, the number of respawning bees and tuf turts, in combonation with the lack of light, and the foreground eyecandy, make it almost impossible to complete the level. Making levels difficult is good, making them darn near impossible isn’t. 5/10.

Eyecandy/atmosphere: Eyecandy is presentable for this tileset. Almost no tilebugs, but nothing too original or exicting. The music selected is overused and barely fits with the level. 6/10.

Tileset use: This tileset is pretty easy to use, and so I can’t award any real points here. Nothing really original done here. 6/10.

Tilt: This isn’t really a level i’d play if I were board. It’s just too annoying. 4/10.

(5 + 6 + 6 + 4) ÷ 4 = 5.25 ~= 5.3. No download reccomendation.

Advice: Remove the foreground eyecandy, use respawning bees (or similar annoying enemies) less often, and try to be more original.

I played this, but I won’t give a rating. I don’t know if this really counts as a ‘demo’ since it IS a whole level, but you DO call it a Demo. These aren’t allowed.

Justto tell, there are a lot of carrots. This makes it way too easy. Also, with the shell with the secret entrance, remove that text. It just kinda ruins searching, it just is straight one way. Above the shell are those 2 wood thingies, but you can get stuck in there! Try to fix it ;) If the rest is like this easy, try to make it harder. EYecandy was not bad but not super good either. It was a little bland. Good luck with your pack though!
