Since this is mostly the work of epic, I’m not going to rate but I will give an overview of what is included.
Eyecandey
Barley anything was added at all. Eyecandey was plain already but almost nothing was added to it. No layer 3, 2 or 1. Not even much to layer 4 is here.
Gameplay
Again not much was added to the gameplay. No puzzles ot even a boss is there. Since Tweedle doesn’t work, it would have been nice to put SOMETHING there. The only thing that adds to the gameplay is the enemies which I will talk about. The level is also too short.
Enemies
Some were added but there isn’t enough to kill me. No challenge at all. Only haters and dragonflies. and hard mode doesn’t add that much.
Pickups
Again barley any of them were added. Just a little here and there. Not enough food or ammo.
Other things
There’s no start Position for spaz. Just needed to say that.
Final Comments
Again I’m not going to rate because of how little was changed. If I did rate, this would get a 1 for boring gameplay, lack of eyecandey and a short experience. If you want to see a decent re-make of this level check out my finished secret levels. (A review would be nice :)
1.1 Is way to generous.

Eyecandey
Very boring. All layers are used, but badly. The background is textured but the other stuff is pretty low, making it hard to even notice. The balloons don’t add anything. Layer 4 is very boring with nothing but maybe 5 or five tiles used. Way to lazy. Also the exit sign was facing the wrong way.

Another run left, drop down, end level. Finished in 1 minute or less. There’s some enemies but they don’t add anything. Also at the end, not all the spikes hurt.

Non is given so I won’t rate.
Eyecandey
Well first of all you used a inferior tileset. The background Is just some candy blocks which looks bad. There are some floating chocolate bars in the background and there is some weird gingerbread man floating as well. That’s it for that. Layer 4 is boring it’s basically just a flat ground with one or two things in the way. (Cookies and gingerbread man) That’s basically it. The level looks empty. It’s boring to look at and offers nothing.

All you go is run left, kill 4 or 5 enemies and fight a boss. Takes about 1 minute.

This program needs a full review.
What this is
This is one of the most useful programs I have ever downloaded. This is basically a fool proof way to take a tileset, and extract the tiles and the masking as well as keep all the pallet entries. i have used it countless of times.
Look
Won’t rate because it’s a dos exe.
Ease of use
You drag the tileset onto the exe, let it run, you have your image. couldn’t be simpler!
10/10
Uses
This has many uses:
1: Extract a tileset so you don’t need to load it into Jazz to look at it.
2: Copy a pallet from another tileset. (with the help of pallet suite)
3: Extract a mask
4: Grab some tiles from a tileset
5: Look at the masking more easily
6: Edit a tileset and then re-build it. (With the help of JCS)
There’s more uses but that’s all I can think of. As you can see it has a lot of potential.
10/10
Bugs
They’re almost non existent. The only thing I can think of is that pallet entry 1-2 are swapped, but that hardly makes a difference.

Eyecandey
This level is very small and boring. the background has tilebugs in it but only in one layer. Layer 4 is boring as the eycandey is basic. There’s lots of tilebugs and a lot of the walls don’t have edge tiles. The ground has tilebugs in some places and everything is boring to look at. Animation are minimal and the hats aren’t covered up. No layer 3 is used.
1/10
Gameplay
Go right, kill enemies, drop down, warp, warp again, go right the fight a boss. You can do this in about 2 minutes. No puzzles are added.
1/10
Enemy Placement
Very few enemies are here. Not enough to kill me and the boss has no Challenge. Also there’s a Blisy boss in one point of the level that you can’t avoid because it doesn’t activate.

Not much is present at all. Little gems and carrots, no food and a little ammo.

This tileset contains fails of the epic proportions.
All you did with this is take the tileset that came with jazz 2, corrected the weird blue colors, and added your name. Nothing was added. No hooks, vines, backgrounds, tubes or anything was added. Not even any animations were found, making this tileset almost useless. I usually rate the colors next, but since this is a direct rip from the one that came with jazz i won’t say anything. The masking in on auto masking meaning jazz will bump into everything, even furthering the uselessness of this tileset.
Need I say more? you have no reason to use this tileset and deserves a big fat embarrassing 1. I know it’s no use complaining about something that was uploaded 4 years ago, but even by the standers of 1997, this is inexcusable.
Final Score: 1 and a not download recommended.
Pretty bad tileset.
What this is
this is basically a tileset designed with the sole purpose of making a desktop. While it may sound like a good idea, it’s poorly executed.
Tiles
Not much is added. A lot of the tiles include icons, a window, and a task bar. that’s it for a lot of it. there’s a sign and some blocks. That’s about it. everything looks ugly and there isn’t anything like vines, hooks, textured background or anything that can make a good background. In a lot of areas, black hasn’t been replaced.
1/10
Animations
No animations so no points.
0/10
Color
Colors are bad as everything looks like it lost color and everything looks ugly.
2/10
Pallet events
Non are used so I won’t rate.
Masking
This masking is almost completely auto masked. The grid is masked for some reason and the mask looks ugly. that being said, it is usable.

DR? No. There is no way this could be used to make a really good level. No download.
Sad attempt at a CTF level.
Eyecandy
Eyecandy is very bland. Everything is floating which I guess is ok for space. theirs a background of space and that’s it. The layer 4 bland and repetitive, using trick tiles to make it confusing to get to the bases. Very few animations are used and the level is to small for CTF. overall, boring eyecandy.
1/10
Gameplay
Gameplay is boring. most of the ammo and carrots are put in secret locations and once you figure out how to get to them, It can basically be impossible for you to die. There’s no powerups at all and only a little bouncer ammo is out in the open. There are 6 carrots in one area which is to much and everything doesn’t have a delay for the respawn. The bases can be hard to get to because for blue, there’s one little area that you can go though and for red, you have to go through some fake tiles which can be confusing. there’s arrows, but your not likely to notice them in a hard core match to the death. Also the map is way to small.
1/10
Ammo and Carrots
Bad. Most of the ammo is in secret areas and very little is in the open. once you figure out how to get to everything, you’ll never run out. There is a stash of 6 carrots that respawn to0 quickly meaning you won’t be dying anytime soon.

DR? No. There’s no way i would host this level as there’s not that much fun to be had. No download.
This is a sad attempt a race level.
Eyecandey
I think I can safely say that some on my oldest levels are better then this. The background looks horrible, like you garbed the background, and spread it while you held down the mouse button. the layer 4 is made up of about 7 tiles in the whole tileset. Layer 7-5 is the same thing as layer 8 even still using the background tiles. This is pathetic.
1/10
Gameplay
Once you warp in, you can take many paths. Most of them lead to traps and one you hit those winds are your in a trap, your out. In a way it makes in challenging. this whole thing is that it is too short and once you figure out where to go, it takes about 20 seconds. Not only that but when you do get to the end, your in a coin room with a flag. Who plays race in ctf?

Now here comes something that EVERYONE should have yet it doesn’t have a full review. Time to change that!
What this is
This is basically an.ini for JCS that enables holiday hair enemies in TSF and trigger zones for all versions. It works, and that trigger zone event is a lifesaver.
Ease of use
You just drop in into your Jazz2 folder and run JCS. couldn’t be simpler!
10/10
Look
Since this can only be a notepad file i won’t rate.
Does it work?
YES! It adds the enemies and trigger zones without any problems. If it doesn’t work, you really shouldn’t be using a computer.
10/10
Would I use it?
Of course! The trigger zones alone make this a great download and everyone should be able to use them.

This is one of the saddest attempts at making a battle level.

We got a background and a couple of tiles making a one tile wide hole with some animations. That’s it. About 10 tiles were used.

Gameplay
This is supposed to be a test, but this is so easy I could do it blindfolded. (Maybe not) You sidekick across warps and then copter ears your way around the warps. After that you have a choice to do it again or to end the level. (what do you think I did?)

What this is
this is supposed to see a hotel tileset but you would have to be out of your mind to use it. Why?
Ok 0.5 mark down because the tilesets name is to long.
Tiles
this is horrible. there’s a textured background but god help me if it works. A lot of the tileset has horrible ripped sprites and objects from other games and Jazz. Everything that was hand drawn just screams MS paint at the top of it’s lungs. Everything looks poorly done and chunky. A lot of event tiles aren’t here and the ones that are aren’t masked properly. Black isn’t replaced in a lot of areas. Very little of the tiles you can actually use to create a good looking level as well. There’s also destruct block but they look horrible. Overall, all the tiles are poorly, ripped or drawn and It’s hard to see anyone make a good looking level with it.
1/10
Animations
There are animations, but they look bad. The sprites have tons of frames missing and the ones that were hand made don’t look that good as well. (I don’t even know what one of them is) there’s also a lack of animations you can use to make something interesting as most of them are sprite animations.
Overall, bad animations.
1/10
Colors
Colors look Ms painty and they all and a lot of them are just solid colors for a background. What is there looks off as well.
1/10
pallet Events
Non work so i won’t rate.
Masking
Masking is bad, but not unusable. Lots of stuff isn’t properly masked though and it’s defiantly uneven in tons of places. lots of things have holes in the masking. Not great masking.

Well considering I would never use this tileset you get a 0 on that.

DR? No. if I want a hotel tileset I’ll use hotel dream. Don’t waste your time to download.
Now I’m not that good at reviewing conversions, but It doesn’t take a genius to see this is a great and usable tileset.
What this is
This is basically a conversion of the old battery check level Binnen. While at first glance it looks like it has everything, there some things missing I would have liked.
Tiles
I haven’t played Battery check in a while, but I can safely say pretty much everything is here. All the background, foreground, animations, and tiles from the original tileset look like there here and well. It was nice you added destruct locks in with the tileset as I love using those. The water area in here as well. There some things I would have liked that isn’t here. Vines, hooks, tubes, textured background and arrows aren’t here. I’m sure you could get tubes working by using some of the tiles to make something that looks like tubes, but some custom ones would be nice. Overall, everything is here, i just wish there was some more stuff added.
Edit: Most of these have been added! I’ll give you an extra point!
8/10
Animations
The animations are good. They all have there frames but some of them have bugs. The static TV has a bug where part of the railing flashes in the third frame. Other then that, the animations look great and fluent. Nice job!
9/10
Colors
Colors look perfect, exactly what i remember from battery check. Great job there!
10/10
Pallet Events
Won’t rate because non are used, but thanks for fixing up the pallet!
Masking
Masking is good. It’s a lot better then the old tileset. Masking is straight lines and almost everything is masked properly. the only thing that has weird masking is the tiles with the monitors near the bottom of the tileset. Other then that, nice work fixing up the masking job!
8/10
Reusability
Not the best. While you do have a variety of tiles to use from under water, factory or lab, your still limited because there’s no outdoor background. If you included this, It would have been a lot higher of a rating.
6/10
Final Score:41/50

DR? Sure. This is a great tileset and I won’t be surprised if someone will use it. Download now and enjoy!
Edit: Changed rating by a little.
I don’t really see the point in any of these pictures at all. After looking at all the of the pictures, I found myself shaking my head and wondering why i ever hit the download button. The only one I found a little funny was the one with the turtle and the Banana. i don’t even see a use. You could use these in a web page, but I don’t think anyone would put any thought into it. Overall, I give this a 2 because I did get a smile once or twice, but It’s hardly worth a download.
If this were uploaded on April the 1st, this wold get a 10.
Eyecandey
