This palette-editing program is very handy for making 256-colour tilesets!
It is very simple to use, and you can even preview what the game sprites will look like in this palette. It comes with a help file too. This program is a useful file for tileset makers.

This utility file makes colour reduction as easy as drawing a cloud in MSPaint!! It has palettes for all palette events, which are easy to use and require no palette work to put them in you tileset palettes. An absolute must-have for 24-bit tileset makers!!

This is a perfect piece of christmas music. It has a nice rock element to it, and is good music to go in christmas levels. This is a very nice remix of holidaius.

This is another failed atempt to make a good tileset.

EYECANDY
Nice Nes style graphics, but the extremly odd pallette spoils it.
2/10

MASK
The mask is ok, but with a very dull Zelda tileset design.
3/10

DIFFICULTY
Despite being a very simple tileset, it is quite difficult to use.

This tileset is one of hundreds of Nes tilesets. Rarely are these tilesets good. This isn’t one of them.

This tileset looks very MSpainty.

EYECANDY
Not very good. Like what I said just a second ago, it looks like it was drawn in MSPaint. Instead it should have texture drawn in Photoshop or PSP.

MASK
A very rough mask with lots of tiny gaps you can get stuck in.

Not very easy to make good levels with this tileset.

The eyecandy was ok in most areas, but some places looked very dull.

This is good for your first Tileset.

EYECANDY
The eyecandy is exellent, especally the background. Maybe you could add a bit more next time.
8/10

MASK
The mask is quite bad, there are several holes where I got stuck in. This area needs improvment.

DIFICULTY
This tileset is easy to use, so it is a good tileset for begginers to make levels from.

This “Tileset” doesn’t help people make tilesets at all. It is just some pics of a dog, a person and a mouse. This is nothing to do with making a tileset. It just shows that you can use ripped images in a tileset. If you want some images then download this, otherwise don’t download this.

This is a good level.

Eyecandy
It was ok, but when you used layer 3 to make paths I could see Jazz from the top and bottom.

Gameplay
The gameplay was very good, as there are two paths so that increases replay value.

General
The level is good generally, but it was a bit short, lacked eyecandy, and the bird flew away often, but I expect that “Froggy or Birdy 2” will be much better.

Super Jazz Bros.3 World 1 is very well designed with plenty of eycandy and gameplay. The tileset used gives a real “Mario” feel to the levels. I like the “No cheating” idea. My brother was so frustrated when he found out this(he loves to cheat)!-P

The music is my favourite thing about SJB3-W1. I have Modplug Tracker so I can listen to it frm there whenever I want to.

I’m really looking forward to World 2!
