This game is a bit strange, because you have to shoot at stupid Muppet-like things. The controls are easy, but the game doesn’t have levels or something and if you hold F and move the mouse you have a big spray of bullets, what makes it very very very easy (999999999999999999999 Points) You can make your shooting character (just an image) Jazz Jackrabbit, but I think that that doesn’t makes it Jazz-related. It’s fun anyway, so I suggest that you download it if you hate supid Muppet-like thingies.

@Stud: If your browser let’s you see this site, then you always like Jazz Jackrabbit.

Put a extra “very” in the title please. And if you upload bosses, just upload them all in ONE level. ONE! ONE! NOT 863587325831258312753285312!

Heating Up: The Official Review of Official Reviwer of Official Things, Levels and stupid Programs and things like that blah blah blah

EYECANDY
Not good, not bad. It is just the standard layout for a Inferno level you need. All trees, spikes etcetera are used. No background eyecandy, though.

GAMEPLAY
This is nice. You have a little light, allowing you to see a little bit (duh). This makes it harder, more fun. There is only one Signpoint, no problem, because that will make it harder too. Perhaps it’s too linear, but there are secrets.

FUN
Fun! Not that fun if you want to play this level over and over but just the fun to download it. And that’s enough.

PLACEMENT
Gweat, but not all details. There are only Ravens and Demons (and a boss) what makes it a bit boring. But they’re always nice placed. Sadly, no ammo a less food is used.

SIZE
Big. But many parts aren’t used. It’s just filled in the normal 256×64 sizzzzee.ee..zzzz. Can bigger.

MUSIC
Not bad. The normal music used for Inferno. All right.

OVERALL
A allright level, fun and well playing. Download reccommendendationisopmendationthingylike.

Oh. My. God. “grvyrdgrdn”? Lol.
DRAT. IT’S TSF!! PLEASE MENTION IT!!! Why you guys never learn that lesson.

EYECANDY
Nice use of plants and pumpkins, but not too many background eyecandy, only some movind (?) carrots. There are not many caves, and the foreground of some holes is bad. Not that good.

GAMEPLAY
Bham. Bad. There are many, many, too many dead ends and there are not that many springs that can help you. Really bad and annoying.

TILESET USE
Carrotus. The overused stupid carrot tileset. It’s sprite layer is well used, but there is no background eyecandy like waterfalls and trees. Also, the carrotus tileset haves many more different tiles. This are the same and the same and the same. Zzz.

SIZE
256×64 I think, but only a very little part is used. It makes it again less fun to play, and it lowers the rating.

MUSIC
The bonus music. Stupid in Carrotus, it is already used in this tileset and it sucks.

FUN
Fun with many layers (at least 10) and perhaps Instagib becasue of it’s tinyness, but not that fun really.

PLACEMENT
Las part of the review and again not good. There isn’t any placement anyway so I can’t really rate it.

OVERALL
Very bad level, only fun in Instagib. You should not host this or download this, only if you are playing Instagib much.

Nice try, but horrible gameplay.

EYECANDY
This can do it, it’s not that bad, because of just nice platforms with no big bugs, but some strange groups of diamonds is what makes this not so good anyway.

GAMEPLAY
H-O-R-R-I-B-L-E. Sorry. You have nice ideas, but things like bees and a pole that you swing back and get hurted again is bad. There is a trap of hurts, it’s too short – if you make another level, try to focus on gamplay.

PLACEMENT
It’s a tiny level, so there isn’t that much placement, but it’s okay for what is in here. There are not many enemies and no ammo, though.

OVERALL
Nice try, I know you can do it, but please focus on gameplay and try to get the eyecandy less strange. A 4.5.

Finally, ONE SINGLE LEVEL WITH TOWNSVILLE! GWWEAT!

EYECANDY
Miss. The most eyecandy that’s in here is the greenish grey bricks and some sky with montains. Very bad, I’ve nothing to say left about it sniff.

GAMEPLAY
Hole in One. It reminds me of some Dishguishe level, with PUs everywhere and some stupid houses without use. The sucker tube is a bit Distopia-like-thingy, but this is a great part of this level. Sadly, it’s not so big as it should be.

PLACEMENT
It’s okay, but for a so little level there’s too much variation. All weapons are used, I think, but all of them in one little row in somewhere. Can be fun, but I don’t like it.

MUSIC
The Town music, orginal JJ2. Not good not bad. I don’t give points for it

OVERALL
Funny level, with bad eyecandy and great gameplay. Boom. I reckon itos thime too doownlood dis!

Your first try? Really?

EYECANDY
Nice BG eyecandy, with the trees and rivers and stuff like that, but it lacks on the sprite layers. Some platforms aren’t done, some vines stop in nothing. It’s simple to fix, but watch out for things like that if you make a level.

GAMEPLAY
Great. You’ll have fun and you can choose many paths, so if you play this level five times, you’ve finally seen all things. The only bad thing is the end, I don’t see any end area’s or a boss. Did you forget the “Activate Boss”-event? There are many secrets, and it’s hard toy find them. Sadly, perhaps there are too many Sign Points so it’s a bit easy.

PLACEMENT
The enemies ae great placed. Not too many of the same, and so that you have to evade them very quickly, like a Dragon Fly above a spring that you must use and things like that. Not only the enemies are well-placed, anyway. The weapons, coins and food is crazy placed all over the place, what makes it fun. Like I said before, too many sign points, which makes it easy.

OVERALL
A great “first try”. It lacks eyecandy, but it0s a fun level. Download this right now. Don’t do it tomorrow.

This is TSF. Not 1.23. Not 1.23. TSF. (-1.0)

EYECANDY
Horrible. No BG eyecandy, only the same brown or nothing. Bah.

GAMEPLAY
Bad. There is a stupid bonus of 10 coins with two golden coins surrounding it. It’s in the wall, and if you warp, you choose for red or blue base. You can quicker run to it, it’s a tiny level and not orginal. Only *.

MUSIC
Hmm. Just Night. Not very good.

PLACEMENT
Great! For the 6 events that are in here.

Overall: A 5.5 (-1.0). This level is really boring and you should not download this if you don’t like tiny levels. You can do better, Winner.

Kweep= I REALLY LUV HOTLTIL-SETS! Flarp-.

EYECANDY:
Sadly, this is the weak point of the tileset. There isn’t background eyecandy. The details are shocking, like a jazz running through Battle 1 on a TV and some penguins. But overall, I hope this will be better in a (perhaps) next version.

MASKING:
The masking is OK, but you can’t sit in the bath or something like that. Further there’s nothing to say about the mask.

TILESET USE:
Again, great, but it reminds me of Hotel Dream, because of the same tiles again and again used with different background. Because you haven’t made any background eyecandy, you should make the wallpapers one tile and you can use layer 5 or 6 for wallpapers. If you delete the background again again and then put something new, it would be a lot better.

Overall: Not better than the earlier tilesets, but a nice one. I hope more versions of this, with better masking and background eyecandy. Download this.

Overrated.

EYECANDY
Really big barf. there’s only sky and the same grassy platforms. Not even a cave or something. There are some carrots, but they’re just walls and further nothing. Bah.

GAMEPLAY
Lacks too, sorry. It’s hard to find the bases (topleft and downright) because you have to make the perfect jump for landing there. It’s also Spaz-based and it’s more like a test than a level. There are too many springs and too less fun.

PLACEMENT
Ok. The better. The placement is even great, the PowerUps are nicely hidden and the ammo is nice. The springs are (again) with too many, but you’ll have to use them.

Overall: Fun level, but host this only if Dx makes a better version with much moe eyecandy.

Njah, a converted pack

Battle Game (1)
This is just the too many times hosted B1 but now it’s the True Rabbit Hotel tileset. Nothing is really changed, it’s more fun but a better BG and that’s it. It has some things like beds and chairs too.

Battle Game (2)
This is B2 with the heaven tileset. There are things changed, like a bouncer PU added and things like that. I like it more than the orginal, but most jump don’t work, sadly. The background could be better this time, too. There are some invisible destruct blocks which are fun, but does nothing. Lol.

Under Siegeness
Wow, this was truly easy for SpyBunny. It’s the old level, but with coins and a bonus added. It’s the Castle 2 Eclipse tileset now and a flash of thunder is added.

Foo instagib level
This is a tiny level for instagib and there are airboards and too many PUs in it. Mez. It’s fun, though.

Overall: a funny level pack. download this if you dont watch eyecandy but gameplay.

This isn’t what dx says.

The level has got great eyecandy, starry sky, nice lights.
The enemies are well placed, all on a orgianl place where you don’t want to see them in game. There is great food and ammo placement. There are some nice ideas like a house maze in it. It is isn’t without faults, but it is a great single player level and I reccomend it highly to download. I hope to see more like this from you.

Wow, I don’t have to say much more, but I will say something.
All of the levels are made with orginal JJ2 tilesets, Satan said it already. This can be fun, but it’s a bit boring because there are sooo maaaannnnnnyyy orginaljj2tilesetlevels (Use for hangman!). There are some really orginal ideas in it, like collapsing bridges in D4mn. The enemies are placed nice, although in the first levels there are many of the same. The eyecandy is ok, but not great. It’s just the eyecandy you need. It’s all great gameplay, with nice secrets etc. Overall a level you must have. Fun that I didn’t agree with any of the reviewers too ;P

Lutijn isn’t right!

EYECANDY
Eyecandy is bad in this level. Only a stupid pink background and many many many many many many many too many pipes. That’s all eyecandy.
Eyecandy: 5.5

GAMEPLAY
The gameplay is okay, but it’s a bit linear because you’ll walk in lines and killing enemies. The end is orginal, there are three Swartzenguards and you’ll have only gun9 to shoot one of them.
Gameplay: 6.9

ENEMY, FOOD AND WEAPONPLACEMENT
There isn’t many ammo in this level. Only the many Gun9 you’ll get by the end, and a Gun9 PU which you can get with that other ammo phew. Enemy pacement is really bad. There are too much same enemies and that’s getting boring. There are 3 cheeses and 4 milks in this level as food. Wow.
BlahblahblahPlacement: 6.5

MUSIC
Bad. Really bad. This music should be used for a forest or something like that. Not a factory like thing.
Music: -0.4

TOTAL: 5.9 = 6.0

Overall a funny level, download it only if you are reaeal bored.

Sorry guys, this is overrated.

EYECANDY
The eyecandy is nice in both of the tilesets, but there is only one sort and only stars. In Spaceship (normal) the stars are colored. The ground tiles are in both two different ones, a rocky one and a flat one. The eyecandy in the tilesets is really bad. It’s just all plain, you can make a space elvel with it, but it don’t feel like a spaceship. There is no “cave” BG, too..
Eyecandy: 5.5

TILES
Not all the basic tiles are in it. The destruct and stomp scenery tiles are missing, and the vines too. There are nice poles in it, anyway. There is also a mark of “Tilesat by Saphir” in it. Uh, duh.
Tiles: 6.0

USER-FRIENDLY
It’s really userfriendly. The tiles are simple to use, perhaps too simple anyway. The stars one BG are simple too made. Not difficult, eh.
User-Friendly: 7.7

MUSIC
The “Water” Music is used in the examples. There isn’t any music included. Bah.
Music: makes -0.5

TOTAL: 5.9 = 6.0

A nice tileset, nice to use, but sad eyecandy and no basic tiles. No music, too. The final versions CAN be better.

Okay, a test. A nice one, too.

EYECANDY

The eyecandy is nice for a test.There are some red, blue and green poles on the background that I’‘ve never seen before. Sadly, the tests itself are mostly simple eyecandy, what makes it less fun. In the tests there are some sticking little poles too, but they’re strangely getting other colors.
Eyecandy: 7.2

GAMEPLAY
Surely the most important section of a test. Overall it’s pretty hard, but sadly in the level are only 4 tests and a very little one.
The first is a Jazz/Lori copter test, which is not huge, but isn’t easy, too.
The next is the little on, You’ll jump over a little gap and then go through some one ways. After that, copter down and you’ll be by Test 2.
Test 2 is a again a copter test, but you could do it with Spaz too if you want to make it harder. It0s the simplest of them all, because you have space to jump and some gaps are very big.
Test 3 is a Jazz/Spaz climbing one. You’ll have you stay on the edge of the bricks to don’t zwarp yourself back. It’s funny and nice.
Test 4 is a Spaz kick and double jump thing, you’ll kick to someplace and double jump quick up so you don’t warp back.
After that, you are by the end. It’s a secret, but there are much gems in it.

Gameplay: 6.5

AMMO AND CARROT PLACEMENT
Ammo and carrot placement: N/A

Overall: 6.85
I’ll make it 7.0.

Overall a nice tests, you’ll host this if you like tests. Don’t do it if you don’t.

Cool level with a nice spaceship-suckertube-transport-thing. The eyecandy is great on background layers with more spaceships and more things like that, but it lacks on the other layers. Where you walk the background is mostly again and again the same, what makes soem pats very boring. The gameplay is okay (rhyme!) but some pars are irritating because you will fall the whole time in the transport ship. Also there are some dead ends. The ammo and carrot placement is good, but they come back too quickly and there is too many of it.
Overall a great level, but irritating – host this sometimes.
