Hmm…

Visual Appeal – 3 out of 5

This level uses Tik’s conversion of the Marble Garden tileset from Sonic 3, and well, uh, it could make much better use of said tileset. The background looks decent, even if it could use layer 7 in a better way than scrolling clouds, but the sprite area does leave room for improvement.

The tileset doesn’t really allow for too much eyecandy variety, but myself I see a few creative options there and there. Anyway, aside from being a little bland, it manages to look so-so. There are no obvious tilebugs, at least.

Playability – 3 out of 5

First of all, this level is way too short. I think I was done finishing it in a bit more than 5 minutes. Some areas are a bit interesting (such as the one with float lizards and vines), and it would’ve been cool if they had been expanded.

Also, I played this level in Hard mode (as I always do), and unfortunately, it was a cakewalk. The only place where I lost a heart was the boss arena (which was done alright, but could use some more ideas). Work on the levels difficulty more next time.

Summary
  • Looks decent.
  • Too short
  • Too easy

Overall
Well, this shows promise. Keep my advice in mind and practise making levels.

A very good level…… but it’s dangerous

(the rating 1.5 earased due to the place we can go only with coins and not a bonus.)

Good level! It is a pity that I can’t give it a mark… if marks also were allowed I’m sure that I’ll give you a high mark, at least a big fat 7.

How come only N/A comments are allowed??

But I would have reviewed:
OK eyeandy (Nice watery backround). But the level is hard and there is a lack of items. The music doesn’t completely suit the level but the tileset is nice.

RATING I WOULD HAVE GIVEN: 6.2
RANK: 6 OK
DOWNLOAD?: N/A (Yes requires 7)

It’s not castle 2…it’s an edited version of the tileset with textured background and rain and everything

I cant seem to fix this N/A thing so looks like you can’t rate my download :( At least that nice ol’ download button still works!

You don’t have to upload the tileset, because everyone has Castle 2.
