Ok, I gotta review this level.
Gameplay: Good/Very Good. It’s excellent, there are a few springs but you can’t put many here. The balance and flow are nice, if you learn the left side you learn the right too. And others is also good.
Eye candy: Good/Very Good. It’s well-done. There could be some more in some places, it would be a higher rating and maybe it will be very good then.
Pickup placement: Good/Very Good. There is not that many but there is space between the ammo and the power-ups are good placed. One power-up at each side and the third in the middle-center of the level. Nice. The Full Energy is also good placed, of course. In a symmetrical level it’s always easy to put a Full Energy at the right place.
Others: Host this: Yes, I will host it sometimes.
Download this: Yes.
Good job Snooz, your best level. I give a 8.2.

Fantastic , I agree with the ratings from R3plite and BluredD.

Thanx to this level I started to like this tileset much.

I didn’t think that you can do such a great stuff with this tileset as Snooz showed to us in this level.

Tilesetuse , gameplay , eyecandy and placement – all this stuff are good.

8.0 from me.

Aka NiQ? I’m not even going to bother asking. Let me just review this…

GAMEPLAY:

This is another symmetrical level with good flow, and it’s a little bigger than the last few levels (could have a larger playing area). There aren’t any major flaws in the layout, and Spaz doesn’t have much of an advantage. The design of the level isn’t too innovative, but it is slightly different from the ordinary.

EYE CANDY:

I liked a lot of the eye candy, but I think some of it could be much better. There are a few flaws, and some parts look dull, although I’m not one to talk with the example levels I made (I probably should start hosting some of the newer levels I made with this set—much better eye candy). But there was the standard that stripe set, and this ranks up there with it. The eye candy is pretty good and a little innovative, and the effort can be seen here.

CARROT AND AMMO PLACEMENT:

At the top middle of this level, there’s a full energy carrot which can be shot down to the bottom—something I see myself doing on occasion. In general, the powerup placement is good enough. It’s questionable with the carrot and the toaster and bouncer powererups placed on the fastest route between the two bases, but it’s not that big of a problem for me. Still, maybe all of the powerups shouldn’t be so easily reached. Anyway, I can’t complain about how ammo is distributed. That’s all I have to say.

HOST THIS OFTEN?

Sometimes or maybe more often than that. There aren’t enough reasons why I can’t give this an 8.

The Edit: So maybe I don’t like the eye candy as much as I first thought. Those gray tiles aren’t exactly just random eye candy tiles; they’re really suppose to be destruct scenary tiles. I didn’t like the way they were used in this level—probably the thing about this level I dislike the most. There’s also that eye candy problem at 45,52 with the red blinking tiles, which annoyed me a bit. Everything else I can live with. My rating is now a 7.7, but it’s still a decent level.[This review has been edited by BlurredD]

I’ll hop straight into the things.

EYECANDY: 9.3
I saw the lighting first, and it isn’t bad. It adds to the ā€œnightā€ feeling. Also it isn’t really bad to see the buildings. The eyecandy is almost awesome.

GAMEPLAY: 8.5
Actually, gameplay is good. Too good. You did not put ANYTHING between the both bases. Just run left, run right, run left, run right, and roast the opponent flagcarrier sometimes.. Toooo EASYYY!! No one needs to go UP because you can just run left and right without jumping. FUNWEE.

FUN FACTORZ0R: 5.4
The FUN FACTOR is which causes stuff. What’s fun at running left and right all time? You don’t even need to jump anywhere. This isn’t fun even with many ppl. Good fun. Or how about not.

AMMO PLACEMENT: 5.7
Oh, the stuff is almost good. But bad. Near the blue base are two powerups. In the middle is an RF powerup. Near red is a full health carrot. What kind of world is this? These days God has given red team the carrot and blue gets the pwnage weapons? It’s like that blue are hunters and red are targets with pwnage health amount. Anyways, biased stuff. Yay.

OVERALL: 6.2
It’s somewhere about average. Little below anyway.

DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATION: For eyecandy freaks
NO DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATION: For all others, especially them, what can’t stand unfairness.

Warning? Oops.

***Default points : 6***

Eyecandy is a sort of good. Mega Megatropolis is a VERY limiting tileset in case of eyecandy. LOL Disguise. Some things would have been nice (yay, first time I agree with LaB). The color of BG doesn’t match with the lighting in level.
++1 point added here++

Gameplay isn’t so nice. The flow makes it. Yes, that is a sux0r part of level. And not too much fun factor in it. Yep, I just didn’t like this level. But the layout is ok, though.
—Half of point explodes here—

Placement is rather bad. Blue Team is a sort of biased ā€˜coz the Super Carrot and RF Powerups. Blur has right. However, ammo placement is very good. Generally it’s a sort of average. You know : This bad and this good. Effect : 0 points.
NOPE

Overall -> -> > 6 + 1 – 0.5 = 6.5
Six and half of point to be exact.
Rank for level : ABOVE AVERAGE

And Labratkid, delete this warning about spamming. It’s inactual now.

I would say it’s ā€œkind of boringā€ no matter how many players.

GAMEPLAY:

The flow is mostly good; I sort of liked it. The balance is almost decent, aside from a few flaws. It feels like there should be something else at the top left, like some more space to play in. Overall, there’s nothing new with the gameplay. This is pretty much a typical CTF level.

EYE CANDY:

The eye candy is good, although nothing incredibly innovative, but I’m glad to see an underused tileset was used here.

CARROT AND AMMO PLACEMENT:

The full energy carrot is at the top middle, though it’s a bit closer to the blue base. Powerup placement is probably the worst part of this level. The toaster and bouncer powerups are too close to each other. Also, the blue base has the RF powerup near it while red base has nothing. I probably would have placed the toaster powerup closer to red base if I made this level. As for ammo placement, distribution could have been a little better, but it’s mostly good.

HOST THIS OFTEN?

No, but at least play it once. 7.2 it is.

Hmm, lets start
1. Be original, censored it. espically the level name.
2. there were some eyecandy bugs you only see when its light. but hey! there is light
3. Ammo placement, was kinda nice, and matched
4. Good thing you dont see the bugs.
5. ā€œIm having trouble finding ammoā€ – I wasnt testing it alone, but dunno what was his problem.
Overall, not that bad, a 6.
Thats because the level design was an over-used idea

Quick review here…

Gameplay – Good
The gameplay is good for the most part. The layout is nice, and the overall fun factor is nice, but the flow is rather suck. The springs are poorly placed, for one thing. In many places, I don’t even know why springs are used. Springs also tend to get you to where you never want to go in a levle – into a slope on a ceiling. There is nothing worse when it comes to flow than hitting a slope on a ceiling due to a poorly placed spring, as it slows you down a lot.
Pros: Good gameplay and layout.
Cons: Bad flow.
Eyecandy – Good
Although the Mega Megatropolis set looks very nice, it’s very limiting in the eyecandy section. Anyway, this tileset doesn’t quite go to the max with eyecandy, but it’s decent and gets the job done. A little more would’ve been nice; I’m not particularly fond of the background, for example.
Pros: Decent eyecandy.
Cons: Not the best I’ve ever seen.
Ammo placement: Good
The ammo placement here sort of reminds me of the ammo placement in my own levels, so I’m naturally going to like it. There’s never really much to say about ammo placement in levels, as long as they have ammo that is decently placed.
Pros: Nice ammo placement.
Cons: Still, no ammo placement in any level has come close to the goodness of the ammo placement in Distopia.
Overall: Good

Ok, time to review this level
Gameplay: Good/Very Good. Excellent gameplay, great balance, the level is small. That its small is not bad, but the two ways that go up at every base, could be better cause you can camp there and there is not many space in there.
Eye candy: Good/Very Good. Also, excellent eye candy, although some places(like BlurredD said)have less then others.
Pickup placement: Good/Very Good. Excellent placed, but three power-ups is maybe 1 too many, but its OK, cause my levels often have three power-ups too. Thats the only thing what keeps it from very good. The Full Energy was just in the middle, but if it’s a symmetrical level that’s always good.
Overall: Good/Very Good level.
Host often: Sometimes.
Download this: Yes.

Let’s see how long this takes.

GAMEPLAY:

The layout is symmetrical, and the flow is mostly good, but there are a couple of huge downfalls. The first of these is the size. There simply isn’t much to the level. It could be used for dueling, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The second downfall is the warp targets directly above the springs. If a player gets hit before or right after entering the warp, that player will be stuck bouncing on top of the spring indefinitely. That’s about all I can point out that’s bad about the layout, yet it’s enough to hurt the rating a lot.

EYE CANDY:

The eye candy was made well with this tileset. It’s a little above average, although there are some parts I don’t like all too much. I don’t have anything else to say about it.

CARROT AND AMMO PLACEMENT:

Well, it’s a symmetrical level, so the carrot and powerup placement can’t be that bad. Too bad the level is so small. Three powerups aren’t really needed, but they can all stay. Ammo is placed well enough, so no complaints there.

HOST THIS OFTEN?

I would say no, but it is a good level for its size. Maybe host this on occasion. 7.2 is my rating.

LOLOL the probably last upload in the 2003 OMGROTFLMBORTFMLOLOLPLZTHX.

And let JJ2 Vipsy Factory lives forever.

***Default points : 6***

Eyecandy is fairly good. These ground-like tiles in background, the color of the TXTured BG, and layer 3 used not only for secrets. I’ve not see tilebugs. Well done.
++1 point boingboings here++

Next’s gameplay. Yep, it’s too small. But there are two alternate routes to opponent’s base. It’ll be ideal for InstaGib, when hosted for Battle. Every CTF can be Battle, any Battle can’t be CTF. It is supposed to be a duel CTF, I think.
—0.5 points explodes along the fireworks—

Placements of objects, goodies, items, and generally events : Wow. Any team isn’t biased. The ammo is placed in the central point of level. And bases are placed at bottom, on two opposite ends of corridoor. No shields. But also no coin warp. Next time place a coin wrap they make level more good ~Dx. Hahah. He has right. Placement is generally above average, though.
++1 point is now inside the review++

And tileset use/music/other stuff that makes levels rox0r: Level uses Disguise’s Space Warbase tileset. Use of it ruxored. Really. Music – orion.xm- adds a gloomy mood for this level. chills. This OSTMLR or whatever : aargh, nope. These are stuff that makes levels non-rox0r. And these are:

I:THE SIZE
II:THE SIZE
III:THE SIZE
So, boo.
++Half of point? Weee.++

Overall -> -> -> 6 + 1 – 0.5 + 1 + 0.5 = 8
Rank for level : SLIGHTLY BELOW BEST
Download reccomended.

So, this is a battle pack so it’s quite hard to rate for me because I haven’t created those sections for battle levels/levelpacks with which to rate it overall because I’m not interested about battle levels so much, especially not interested to rate them. Well, because I saw that this had got that high rating, I decided to download it, well I’ll tell about my opinions soon about the levels, but that I at least this time also interested to rate this. Yes, this is hard to rate because this is my first time when I rate a battle level. Ok, let’s see what can I create to sections, and what points do you get.

EYECANDY
This is really great. Not wonder if this levelpack has even got already an overall rating of 8.6. It looks some times confusing, this amount of eyecandy would be better in sp-levels than in battle levels, because you have to be more serious, or ugh… It’s hard to explain. Well, anyway cuz I didn’t find any eyecandy-bugs, I give a 10. :] (Btw, I thought that the darkness-level’s tileset was made by Blade because it looked so simple, but Disguise surprised me!) :O
10/10

LEVEL SIZE AND FILL
(Notice, that I’m rating the overall of all levels.) Well, ā€œTo the darknessā€-level could be a little more bigger and the fill of tiles, etc. could be some bigger. Or no, the size of it is very good but not the fill. And actually the space fortress is a bit too small then.
8/10

EVENT PLACEMENT
Good start pos. Or actually the placement of start pos. isn’t very important except if someone would place them into a wall, heh then the level could be like nothing ;D
Placement of ammo and pickups is…Err, I think there’s a little too much of it, but otherwise they’re well placed.
9/10

ORIGINALITY
Custom tilesets but not YOUR own. Your own made levels. That’s again a 9.
9/10

+ OR – EXTRA POINTS

+1 Good music choice
-1 No readme and this is unnamed or whatever.

OVERALL 36:4=9
LEVEL RANK: Very good level
DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATION: Yes.
HOST THIS: Yes, but the eyecandy may look confusing in some places. Especially when you duel, the background will move really fast, etc.

ENDING COMMENTS: So, this was my first battle-level rating so I don’t exactly know that did I rate it very well, that could there be more sections, but at least I think this levelpack is available to deserve an 9. Well done, just make some more cool things to your levels, make them more, fill them better and balance the size of the levels. Just only change the layout with the tileset.

Because you wanted so badly here is my review!!!!

To the darkness.

Eyecandy:
Good!!! A good eyecandy with a good background and no tilebugs.

item placement:
Good!!! There is enough ammo and ammo of al kinds of weapons. I Say 2 powerups in the levels of gun 8 and 9.
There is also Fast fire in the level.

Other:
Fine!!!It`s not big but big enough. The music fits okay. Can get stuck in the wall by those fast fire things with the one way. Layout is also great and the springs are well placed.

This level is good a 8.5

The food factory.

Eyecandy:
Great!!! The eyecandy is really great because the background rocks and the animations are good to.

Item placement:
Good!!! Again ammo of al kinds except the tnt. The ammo is great placed to and again i found 2 powerups pepperspray and bouncers.And there is a lot of food.

Other:
Good!!! The layout is good the gameplay is good. The springs are again well placed BUT sometimes it`s better if you replace the bleu into green springs. Also It`s confusing because on some places there are springs hidden in the wall. The music fits great in the level.

Also a good battle level a !!8.7!!

The space fortress.

Eyecandy:
Good!!! The eyecandy rocks again good background and foreground like flying ships and tubes But it`s a little bit confusing. Sometimes i almost can`t see a thing.

Item placement:
Good!!! Again well placed and all kinds of ammo again except freeze and TNT. I again found 2 powerups of bouncers and pepperspray.

Other:
Good!!! The music fits some funny text things and a good layout and gameplay.

To bad that the level is a little bit confusing but still great a $€8.0€$

crYsTaL MaNiA.

Eyecandy:
Great!!! A good background and foreground. A cool fog on the top. I didn`t found any tilebugs.

Item placement:
Good!!! Again well placed and again i found 2 powerups of Bouncer and my favourite RF missle.

Other:
Good!!! The layout is great and the gameplay is great. The spring well placed and the suckertubes are well placed to. The music really fits in the level.

Again a great battle level a Āæ?8.5?Āæ

Wow this rocks all the battle levels are great. 8.5+8.7+8.0+8.5=33.7 33.7:4=8.4>8.5
The total is 8.5 great.[This review has been edited by Satan][This review has been edited by Satan]

Ok, I review now a new level.
Gameplay: The gameplay was good. I saw that its small but for a small level the gameplay is good.
Eyecandy: Eyecandy is very good. Some good dark tiles and other colors. thats great
Pickup placement: There was some good pickup placement, but also, there could be more I think. I saw one full NRG carrot, that is good in a battle level, but a few carrot energy+1 is good too. So, no comments about that. I saw two power-ups, and they were good chosen(Seeker and Bouncer). I put that two power-ups often in my levels, only the last one had blaster and seeker.
Others: I saw no MP starts, only a jazz start near the powerups. And the tileset is hard to use(for me)
It’s a great level.
