Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

i saw TONS off bugs, dead ends, misplaced tiles that made me very :( sad face. So here they are with a review just for you, not making the same mistake next time.

First off all =
The music doesn’t fit in this Night version theme.. it’s to “heavy”…

something about the level platforms/gameplay:

it’s very clumsy and small.. u tried to make a pit with CTF bases and bees events . What won’t work,.. u won’t get hurt by the bees or Hurt events in multiplayer, and the score system to die only works in single player. So u will be stuck forever in that pit, nothing that will help you out.. you could at least Betatest your map to get the bugs out off it, what you probably haven’t done. We now like to use JJ2+ to let the 255 pit event work. and there are some dead ends at the upper side (especially left) which also ruins the gameplay a bit. oh and by the way, the steam is very irritating when u are moving around, and there is no way to get in the “coal chute” room since the wind is stopping you to get in ( u probably wanted that the wind BRINGS you in there.. but u used the wrong direction) the steam also prevents that you are not able to jump. and some in the mid is a tube that gives you a airboard which is pretty useless, since the paths are way to small at that part. some good points are, that the whole level also has some good big paths with nice platforms ideas.

some more things about the eyecandy:

the platforms do look a big plain (mostly straight lines) and the background is “okay”. the buildings are well done with good speed settings, but the Textured background isn’t textured here, which makes u get a weird pattern background at layer 8 when u are playing this level, and the moon doesn’t have any speed setting which makes the moon a very unrealistic look, because it doesn’t make any movement. the sprite layer has also some bugs, like misplacing tiles. the whole brick part that is made southeast of the map is misplaced, and the ground around the Danger Machina (don’t know how to name it) is also misplaced. the fire on the lava tiles does look a bit unrealistic, since these tiles are made for the background. and the fire that goes up in that machine looks a bit ugly, in my opinion.

Some things About Originality

Not much but just to say only one thing:
pretty original but the amount of events(most of the events are pretty usless like the airboard and hurt events) and the new ideas of eyecandy weren’t that good, which ruins your grade for a bit.

Download Recommendation?

No, the design was “okay” for a level around the 6, but the eyecandy and gameplay parts and useless events ruines the level a bit

don’t ask me why to write a quite long review for a level like this, but i just don’t want you to make these mistakes again.. i hope u use this review to make your new level better.

I also hope you make effort on you’re skills so u can get me suprised..

Well, we’ll see ;D
maybe i will write another review for your next level,.. who knows…. ;o

stop it always using “organic.it” because u like that music.. u have to put a music in a level that ‘fits’.

creating 5 levels by only swapping 1 level-layout, to 5 kinds of tileset pallettes is not called a level pack :l

That looks great :D.. however jazz himself looks a bit ugly.. ;o.
but i am sure u pwn my artwork <3

Alton towers tileset

Alton towers tileset is an interesting tileset with an original eyecandy, it looks like a fun park with much activities

the eyecandy is original, the options for the background layers are just wonderful. with a good handle of layer speed u will get a great bg with activities – buildings – mountains, and a nice colored sky

the tiles are original, but i can’t say it’s fantastic, if u make a level with this u will get a plain ground which is a bit crappy, the gras tiles are a bit small in size and the ground is just 1 pixel color, only if u put thing in it in layer 3 or other tiles u can make it a bit better, but it will be still not great

the idea of scenery is brilliant the i like the kiosks and the rollercoaster rails, also the platform events that u used in your example levels are very original. there are much hard complicated animation events that u made, which makes the tileset more beautiful (the rollercoaster in de loop at the background)the trees and way of painting reminds me of twilight park.

also, the ground has another option,with a path of stones which looks really nice but when it goes up it looks like the stones aren’t that close to each other anymore which is unrealistic also the streetlamps could have an animation of a better lightning scenery..

the 2B version of the example otherwise the night background looks not very well imo, the quality of those tiles sucks a bit
*and btw the cinema looks kinda big if u look to the other things in layer 6

the spikes are original with a nice animated event
the rotating things in the ground are very cool, this let the makers/players reminds that this tileset is a bit technical aswell, like the rollercoaster etc

mmm? what else, well i like the cartoonish drawing however the quality sux, but that’s why i name it cartoonish :P it’s nice overall

it’s not very hard to use, all event tiles are included in this nice tileset

nothing more to say
quality = medium but rox
useful = yes, all event tiles are included
eyecandy = just wicked, and original
scenery = very nice and cartoonish, however the ground looks a bit plain.

nothing more to say, a 7.7 (most of the new ideas) it looks different than other tilesets, but also has the same event options

Gus, u did a brilliant job ;)

** Btw, my english sux but these things can still be usefull…well, i hope so ;s.

~Faw

you should say it’s typical a tileset of craccoboy :P
Cracco Castle is a easy to learn tileset with a nice quality.
it also contains most of the event tiles.i didn’t found any bugs (not in the pallete either like 8-bit background) gj on that one. and the mask is ok.
and it has a nice example level ofc =D.

Relaxia Lakeside

here we go

ORIGINALITY

this level is kinda original. The mountians with the water are nice, first time it was like the mountains were floating in the air but after some time u see it ;).the bricks that flows from wall to wall are nice, ecially the translucent tile between the bricks.the level is still a bit small, and has a normally gameplay (platforms etc)

EYECANDY

u did a good job here as well, the buildings give a nice city feeling and the mountains like a beautiful nature, u cmbinated these elements good in each other, although i think this is not the best part of your level. There is not much scenery in layer 5, the floor ur walking on is a bit boring. but there are bricks, but there could be some more scenery imo (floor [like trees]).(the forground rain is perfect it is much but not yet annoying)

PLACEMENT

placement is 1 of the best things of your level, i hardly had to jump for ammo or other stuff.Most ammo is set on ground floor, so if u run u pick it up automaticlyand about big placements, the bouncer and rf are hard to reach.. the platform is a bit high maybe u should put a float up or something. but overall this is really nice :D

Gameplay

really pwnage, the platforms are simple though but it has a perfect flow (only that reaching pu stuff) XD …. anyway, it’s nice and i like the base placement, it gives more possibilities to rts or capping the flag, not much possibilities for camping either ;) that’s very nice :D,but.. this level is easier to play with spaz than with jazz..

MUSIC

it’s very nice, it’s gives a warm feeling when playing, it fits :D

Overall

Tips:try to make no difference for character possibilities, and put some more stuff on the ground

RATING

Nice level, small, easy to learn, brilliant design :D,normal level,quite good eyecandy,good placement

i give u a =

7.7

u worked a lot for it and ur in xlm
(welcome btw) nice level and i think u will make many other good levels :D!

Keep it going EIGUS!:)

DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATION?

Yes, of course, this level is brilliant, and u must see this/have it
nice to host for a random time :) just small map but also fun :D ( or like u always says = IT’S FUN! haha)

i Hope ur happy with my review :D

~Faw

** R3ptile, its not a bug.. it is water

Mouse Control, here we go

it’s very funny :)
i played with it in sp levels..
but it was hard =(
it’s brilliant how u got this idea.. but sometimes i moved a bit buggy =

1)jumpíng don’t work well, if u speed up and jump (sometimes u don’t even jump) u jump very low

2)moving around was also hard for me.
if u hold run with shift or caps it’s hard to move around.. in castle the queen boss i just ran into the spikes when the blocks fell down..
it’s a bit high sensitive for me =/

anyway, after this bugs it’s still brilliant and it’s actually very Funny to have controls that are hard to use =p

tip = you shouldnt put everything in the mouse, you putted shooting,jumping + moving around in the mouse controls

imo you should place the movement just in the arrows at the keyboard. because it’s hard to handle all in the mouse .. btw the movement was very buggy (high sensitivexD)

DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATION?

yes, it is brilliant, and u still can get a higher rating if u follow the tips :), but for now on for you an good mark 8.2

~Faw

it has the same properties as your prev music.. again the speed change, im srry its exactly the same review but u only edited the same thing =

the music flows not very good.. its looking like u only made it faster in speed.
its going to fast.. and u dont hear all the instruments well.
i can’t say more about it. u just have to learn a bit more how to edit jj2 musics and not only set the speed.
i just don’t like it. you can make this in 2 min.. so you didnt spended much time for it.

Download recommendation?

no, not this time =(.. maybe your next music will be better =)

jimbob.. what masterrokusho means (what i think he means) that u just have to start all over again and make an new level.. where you spend much time in it. then its getting better,
uploading and upgrading don’t work if the platforms + gameplay is boring..

nice tileset.. i already used it for my example to xlm ;D
most because its high quality much different tiles like grass + industrial – moon
just everything what a tileset needs even the events like vine + poles are in it :D
pallette is nice i can almost every tile in layer 8 as 3D background without bleeding.
Desolation PWNS you all XD

~Faw

a bit harsh on my ears =( i can\‘t follow the rhytm good.. =S
some parts are nice though but i dont like all the sounds of instruments.. but i give an 4.5 because u changed much and its an real conversion :D

well.. i think i shouldnt give an download recommendation.. maybe next time..

~Faw

first things whats ANNOYING =

1. poor mask in tileset

2. bad gameplay and things are to difficult for me.

3. to much “1 color” if i see the yellow ground + the waterfalls, than im become crazy.(maybe u had to choose another tileset)

4.poor eyecandy, no textured background it looks like poor bricked layer 8.

5. uhm, there is only bouncer and RF weapon? how can i have a good gampeplay with this .?

6. bouncer PU is to hidden.

good things =) :

1.its a small lvl for fun, the tiles are good detailed.

2. ammo placement is very well and it cant be fun for dueling or “hyper” instagib :p

3.u choosed a cool musicfile x3!

download recommendation? = no srry its not good enough for me …

but just keep making lvls i hope i made some advice for u ;|.

im sure that there will be a lvl what intrest me very well.

so good luck and see ya in my next review ;d!

very nice but :/
i looked for a (it,xm,s3m,mod) to j2b converter … if anybody know plz tel me =d

im not start reviewing it yet :p

[Rating (5.7) clearance and negativity edit. Please read the Review Rules before making any more reviews. ~cooba]

its a very good program…
but when i want standard CTF colors i just use carrotade thats :

1.better
