Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

I’m bored, so i decided to review this tileset.
Bad Boys II, By The Real One Bjarni:
FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
Yay, another tileset realase. actually, i must admit this set is much better than i thought, Graphics look really nice on some tiles,( bad boys posters for example )
and i really can’t find flaws from them.. or atleast major ones. Masking is fine too.. and there’s some mask messages. Slopes and other things are masked rightly. tile quality would be better thought, slope tiles look really dull. so does that brown man with guns. there’s also a white/blue hill-like thing.. which is supposed to be a police car.. i was surprised when i saw that textured background. it looks nice, too bad its ripped.. and then edited. Well, i think this is average tileset. with some bad and good tiles.. download or not? my review should tell everything.
TILE QUALITY:
Tile quality is better what i thought it would be. some tiles like those posters and texturebackgroud look really nice, and i can’t find complaiments from them. nice work, keep it up. too bad that some tiles look dull like i mentioned above. this set has different colored slopes, which look really dull. there’s also a tile which looks like road.. which look dull too. there’s poorly drawn gun / police car tile too, and i really dislike those. well, no more complaiments.
PROS:Some nice looking tiles.
CONS:Some tiles are really dull..
COLORS:
Ick. colors are really boring.. usually they are brown or yellow.. which looks really dull, and makes levels look boring. multicolored tileset would be nice. hmm.. police car and texture background use other colors though, which saves this section from getting low rating. anyway, use more colors next time..
PROS:´Some other colors than brown.
CONS:Colors are mostly brown, or yellow.. or somewhere beetween those two.
EASE TO USE:
Heh. This tileset is extremely easy to use. whcih is really good thing. too bad that in my opnion this is too easy to use.. or something like that. ;P
but anyway, i won’t remove points from that.well, my conclusion is that this is really easy to use, which can be really good/bad thing. no more comments.
PROS:Really easy use
CONS:nothing really.. ;P
MASKING:
Masking is quite good in my opnion. slopes have good masking. police cars and other things could be better though. overall this tileset has quite nice masking, or atleast better than i expected. no more comments. =OO
PROS:Quite nice masking
CONS:could be better.
TILES:
HJmm.. lots of tiles. There’s no background tiles.. or atleast there’s no good background tileset you coukld use.. not really a good thing. there’s some useful tiles though, like slopes.. yay.
well, this tileset has some eyecandy too.. like posters and poorly drwan blocks and some man with guns. ´police car could be better too..
PROS:Some nice tiles
CONS:Some bad tiles
CONCLUSION:
Well.. average tiles. nothing more to say.. whee. im tired because of this review.. well, im finished. 6.5 for reasons i mentioned.

TILES:Average
MASKING:Good

OMG THIS LEVEL IS STUPID I RATE 2 LOL

Chippie wanted me to review his upload, and he reviewed mine, so i will review this.. let me start.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Tileset you used was jj1: Diamondus night,(by NOKA) and i really like it. Eyecandy was really good too, and i really can’t find tile errors. btw, i saw this hosted couple of times, and this was really fun to play online. im just wondering why the sucker tube ( upper middle ) is bit longer in other side. ;P
(Sorry for my bad english)
But i don’t remove points from that since it dind’t disturb me much. This level was fun to play. i also like layout alot. its not linear. and eyecandy rocks… trees, waterfalls.. caves, suckertubes.. animations.. etc.
really good level.. download recommedation…unfortunately my review isn’t finished.. its time to continue.

EYECANDY
Like i mentioned above.. its great. really good. multiple ground tiles were used, and the result is awesome. i like the way you used suckers too, and waterfalls.. and other eyecandy.. by the way, i really can’t find tile errors in this level.. well.. my conclusion is that this level’s eyecandy is l333t.

GAMEPLAY/LAYOUT
This level has really good gameplay. i like this level’s gameplay a lot. carrots are nicely placed. one is on own, and one is on upper suckertube, which makes that suckertube useful. spring are nicely placed too.. and youll can navigate around easily. i really have no complaiments. i was just wondering why that sucker is longer onother side.. but whatever. good gameplay. Layout is nice too.. In other words, level is nicely layed out [ i hope i spelled that right ] and i like it. there is some oneway events on bottom section, which lead youto upper section.. or something like that. i hope that the j2o users who will read this understand what i mean.. whatever. really nice layout.

PLACEMENT
Placement is nice. its something really original. there is lot of weapon packs, which are shaped like, * * * * * * *
which can be really good thing. Powerup placement is fine too. i can’t remember powerups.. i think this level had 3 Powerups.. bouncy, seeks.. and something else. whatever. bouncers and seeks are good choice since most people use them… myself i couldn’t live without powered seeks.. ;P
well. in my opinion placement is great. no more comments / complaiments

ORIGINALITY
This level is very original… or atleast eyecandy and atmosphere are.. i liked this level alot. Is this level fun? i would say it is. i saw this hosted two times, and this really was fun to play. or atleast it was in my opinion. yay, long review. ;D

CONCLUSION
Yay, I finally finished my long review.. well. in my opinion this deserves a 7.5, which is good rating. i hope i gave enough reasons.

CTF review number 1 : Capture the sun by masterrokusho

First Impressions:
Very well. its little bit too small for a CTF level in my opinion, and you could use another tiles in this tileset too, because this tileset ( McKinley, by mirrow ) offers you much more tiles than orange ground. in my opinion, tileset was misused. balance and ammo placement was fine, but it still could be better. now, lets me continue with my review.

Eyecandy:
well.. one word: boring. you used some ground tiles, nothing else. there is no good eyecandy at all. only ground tiles, which is a bad thing.. it makes this level look dull. use more eyecandy tiles in future.
Pros:atleast there is ground.
Cons:everything else.
Rating:1.7

Tileset Use:
Heh.. like i mentioned in first section tileset was horribly misused, since tileset offers much more tiles to use than ground tiles.. i don’t like tileset use at all, because it looks dull. No more comments.
Pros:At least you used ground tiles correctly.
Cons:Everything. ;P
Rating: 1.5

Gameplay:
Could be better. there is some platforms, which makes the gameplay little bit less linear in my opinion, but this level is still horrible, no matter what.. and base placement is bad too, because there is dead end next to them. ( i hope i spelled that word right )
Pros:Some platforms.
Cons:linear gameplay no matter what..
Rating:2

Weapon Placement:
Poor.. i don’t like ammo placement at all. just some seekers near bases.. there should be more ammo and 4-2 powerups.. ammo/PU’s are needed if you want to make good CTF levels. no more comments.
Pros:some seekers..
Cons:there’s not enough ammo or powerups
Rating:1.5

Conclusion:
Poor level. could use more ammo and powerups.. and eyecandy too. no download recommedation this time, sorry. this is a 2.

Rank: poor level
Download recommedation:no.
Rating:2

EDIT 1: i forget to add rating. sorry.[This review has been edited by NiQ]

Time for quick review. well, “Scary jungles” is quite good solid race level by Dx. myslef i enjoy playing this level, there is one thing i dislike though: those plants. ofterwise its ok. eyecandy is good and i have no complaiments.. background get boring though. gameplay is quite nice and this is maybe little bit too small for a race level.. but its still fine level to play.. download recommedation.. im thinking 7.2[This review has been edited by NiQ]

okay, time to do a fast review here..

Heh. “Deathwish” is a medium sized battlevel using Aztec tileset by Blade. in my opinion set was used fine but some j2o users may not think so. eyecandy is nice.. and i really enjoy when playing this level. weapon placement is fine too.. ( there is a one place in the level where you put two powerups in one small room.. whihch was only bad thing ) my only complaiment here is the dead ends.. there is one, the wall next to seek pu..
after all, i think this lvel is worth of Download recommedation. im thinking 8, whihc is good rating. HF.

~n1q TF

R3ptile, please don’t blame from stoling. i wanted to do a level with this set, because i haven’t seen too many levels using this set. next time, please think a while when blaming people of stoling things. it is a quite big accuse..

DOWNLOAD RECOMMEDATION:YAYAYAYAYYEYEY!!
HOST THIS:YAYAYAAYAYAYAAY’
RATING:8.5

Well, lets write a reveiw, since i have free time.

EYECANDY: basic. tileset use was standard.keep it going. there are somme eyecandy things in castles, and in outdoor ares, such as grass, whihc is a nice thing, so it won’t look so dull, ;p

GAMEPLAY:Average, you just have to run.. not really fun. just running. no more comments.

AMMO PLACEMENT:Heh. Standard placement. i like about it. keep it going. there is a full NRG too, but not in middle of level.

CONCLUSION:average/ok CTF level. keep it up.
HOST THIS:maybe/your decision
RATING:7.2

Well, this wasn’t reviewed, so i decided to review.

EYECANDY:yay. better than in last version. actually, i think you should add a new background mountain isntead of those blocks, since they are very confusing. good that there is different kind of blocks now. that made me rate higher.

GAMEPLAY:Well, its better. but it could be still better. i think its quite hard to move in this level. and someparts are confusing.still, the gameplay is ok, and i don’t have much compaliments.

WEAPON PLACEMENT:Heh, good enough. there is many kinds of ammo, and theyre quite easy to get. there is one powerup, and i think its too easy to get. ;p
Well, no other comments., i guess that this review is finished.

DOWNLOAD RECOMMEDATION:Yeah..

~SnooZ aka NiQ

Lets do a quick review..

EYECANDY:Well, someparts are good, someparts look really dull. like those blocks. you used 32 × 32 block only. in my opinion, you should use other blocks too, like 64 × 64. results would look much nicer. but, its your choice.

GAMEPLAY:Quite good, but there are some weapons i don’t like such as TNT and freezer. i won’t take points away though. you can get around fine. average gameplay.

AMMO PLACEMENT:Its good but could be better. no more comments.

CONCLUSION:An Average level.

DOWNLOAD RECOMMEDATION:Nope..

Yeah, a CTF pack, so its time to review.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
yay. an CTF pack. Well, lets just say that it is average. there should be better eyecandy in some levels. Gamepaly could be better too. but lets continue with the review.btw, my reveiw will be quick..

LEVEL 1: Diamond dusts
EYECANDY: 6.5 – Hmm, standard eyecandy. no major compaliments. few tilebugs. spend more time to eyecandy.
GAMEPLAY: 7 – Moatly good, but could be better.
PLACEMENT 6.5 – Well, ammo placement is alrgiht. so are the bases. they shouldn’t have any warps though..
FUN FACTOR: 6 – this level is not fun.. mostly boring..
CONCLUSION:Standard level, but could use more eyecandy.. etc.
RATING:6.7
HOST THIS:No..

LEVEL 2: Morpheus city
EYECANDY: 7 Quite nice.. but it could use more eyecandy tiles..
GAMEPLAY: 6.7 – mostly good.. not very well balanced though.
PLACEMENT: 7 – Standard.. could be better. base placment is quite werid. don’t ask why, ;p
FUN FACTOR: 6.7 – well, its just too boring..
CONCLUSION:Average level. could use more eyecandy. and make your levels bigger.
HOST THIS:Nope..

Ok, im too lazy to write more, so lets just say that last two levels are average too, and they really could use more eyecandy. they should be larger too. next time when making a CTF pack, focus more on balance, and other things such as eyecandy. my rating is 6.7, good average rating.

~Snooz aka NiQ of J2VF

Yeah, i may change or edit reveiw later..

im afraid this upload is horribly overrated, and i fell bad about my rating number, which is gonna be quite low…

reveiw:
Well, this level is not too big. not too small either. its a good thing. by the way, when i played this, i falled to a pit or soemthing, and i was warped to a tube. then i found out i was stuck. ;p
Eyecandy is good, and i have no complaiments. good job with it.
difficulty level is fine too, maybe bit too easy, for me. ;p
myself i think that is level is good, but it is just horribly overrated. 7.2 from me.
yeah, this was a quick reveiw. :p
DOWNLOAD REC:I don’t know what to say
RATING:7.5 ( edited )

~Snooz XSD aka NiQ CC of j2vf[This review has been edited by Snooz]

NOKA, this is my personal thoguht of the level. its overrated. this has nothing to with the discussion.[This review has been edited by Snooz]

yeah, j2vf needs the rules. btw, i probably underrated this, so i will give +0.3 more. :)[This review has been edited by Snooz]

Coooba, i once saw a nickanme which was 17 words long. :p[This review has been edited by Snooz]

Yeah, its a time to reveiw. yay.

Well, is this worth of download recommedation? i think so. from the zip, youll find a challenging Single-player level by Saldarax. But lets continue with my stupid reveiw. yay.
Well, i think this level deserves better than 6.. ;p
but rating will be not over 7, because its too linear, when you play tihs level is mostly just running in flat ground.. there were nice eyecandy things like leaves and tree.. that is good. it made me rate higher. gameplay is fine too, and music choicwe is good. level is original too. Good job Saldarax, and like Cooba said, you’re probably welcome to j2vf. Good job. :)

DOWNLOAD REC: Yeah.
RATING:6.7

~Snooz XSD aka NiQ CC of J2VF

Okay, qucik review here.

hmm.. Unviersal Spacebase is average CTF level by Darksonic aka da man. It has some weird shaped platforms in it, but the eyecandy is mostly fine. tileset ¨was used standardly, and i have no complaiments. ammo is placed averagely, and i almost like it.ammo should be better in someplaces, but i have no much complaiments. music choice is fine. im thinking 6.5.

DOWNLOAD RECOMMEDATION:No..
HOST THIS:i don’t know
RATING:6.5

~Snooz XSD aka NiQ CC. ( i quit J2VF )

Actually, you can upload hotels, but those are very boring,( expect Five golden star hotel).

Well, its an a small battle level.
i don’t think this can receive so high
than a 6.6, because of the size. whatever, lets get started with the real reveiw.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Okay, this level is very small and boring. luckily it has many eyecandy´, which saves it from getting low rating, like 4-3. i don’t think this is too good for deserve a download recommedation, but lets continue.

TILESET USE/EYECANDY

Hmm, quite good. tileset was rightly used, and level has much eyecandy. and weird looking texture background. there is no tilebugs, or atleast i didnt see any.animations are good too. standard eyecandy/set use

GAMEPLAY

i don’t like it too much. level is small, and it ruins the gameplay. levels should be much bigger than this.

AMMO PLACEMENT

Hmm.. standard. some ammo, but there should be more, there are few packs of ammo, but enough.

FUN FACTOR

Not fun.. its too samll an boring. make your levels bigger.

CONCLUSION

Average level.. looks like being worth of 5.7
RANK: average level
DOWNLOAD RECOMMEDATION:nope.
HOST THIS:no..
RATING:5.7 ( i may change the rating number too )

Lets reveiw, and, let me say that there is no much race levels, and this is probably my first race level reveiw.
anyway lets start.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
Okay, level uses carrotus day tileset fairly well. there is eyecandy tiles, like those pumpkin plant things. anyway, there is tilebugs, and some parts i don’t like, like those hills in the start. But lets continue. and this upload is not too bad or something. ;p

EYECANDY:
Okay, there is mostly good eyecandy, like those hills in the start + those plants, what are near the starting place. they have tilebugs though, like the whole level. there is wrongly used tiles lot, but not too many. oh well, lets continue.
TILESET USE:
Okay, tileset was used rightly. no major complaiments. lets continue. ;p
GAMEPLAY:
Gameplay is good, there is easy to run, and there is obstacles,no more comments.

There is ice ammo, which is goodly placed. no more comments, since im bit too lazy to write more! =DD
CONCLUSION:
Level could use more eyecandy, and there should be no tilebugs.
DOWNLOAD RECOMMEDATION:your decision
RATING:5.2

Hmm, this level is very good, probably the best one of the Author. I decided to review this, and i have lot of time, so be prepared for a long review.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
hmm. eyecandy is ok, so is the gameplay. pickup placement is good, tileset use is quite standard.. i think this is a good level for download, and i must admit that this is the best level of the author. but lets continue.

EYECANDY:Eyecandy is quite standard, i see no tilebugs, and there are lots of eyecandy in the background layers. i think i have no other comments about eyecandy..
TILESET USE:Hmm, standard, like it usually is. ;p
Tileset was used rightly, and i have no major complaiments.. ;p
background layers look nice, but it moves little bit too fast, and looks confusing sometimes. Standard use of the tileset.
GAMEPLAY:Hmm, good. its quite smooth, there is ramps, etc.
no much comments, but its ok/standard/smooth
;p
by the way, i have one complaiment, dead ends near the bases.. i would rate this higher if there would be no dead ends..
ITEM PLACEMENT:Hmm weapons are rightly placed. I like about placement, and there is full energy/seek powerup on the middle. good.
CONCLUSION:Well, a nice level by Da man.
and yup, i give a Download recommedation. this is quite nice level, and my final rating is 7.5, and i don’t think its over-rating.
DOWNLOAD RECOMMEDATION:yup
HOST THIS:occasionally
