I suppose I can review this,since I helped only with advices. Gameplay is good enough,the tube system seems to work fine. I think the ammo placement could have been better,but the amazing eyecandy and good gameplay matter more. Here you go with a nice 8.5 and a DL rec.
Just a note,don’t try to cheat and you won’t mind the shield trap :D
Sorry for writing a quick review,but I do not have much to say. The eyecandy is fine enough,though it can be improved. There is a bit more open space on some place than I prefer,but overall the layout is nice. Ammo placement is good. The highest rating I can give is 8.2.
I guess it boosts the rating when you are a clan leader,if you get what I want to say.
I think this idea is awesome. I have played this in DJazzy’s server,and it RULEZ. The levels are nice,the idea is good and I think this should be used for a JDC event or as a new gamemode or whatever. I suggest you to download this.
[Rating (10) clearance. Please rate the levels, not the gamemode, which wasn’t created by DJazz. ~cooba]
Agreed with Snooze,it’s a great level.
[Rating (10) clearance. ~cooba]
Any level can be played hundreds of times. But I wouldn’t play this one.
I can approve this was Skele’s level first.
Why can’t people stop with biased ratings? Riper,Skele’s brother gives a 8.7 and Kimo who does not like Archer gives 4.0. Stop it people.
Kimo: I don’t take sides in this one. It’s still a biased rating.
Not anything special,almost the same as some other tests,but it has some nice ideas.
Agreed with FireSworD. Gameplay is NOT nice,pickup positions are random with Lori/Spaz biased parts,and the eyecandy… Coin stuff is probably stolen.
I would suggest admins to remove Unearth’s biased rating,since he is in the same clan as Shelly. I don’t know why Shaker rated it so,but it’s probably biased again. Try again.
EDIT: Let’s see the reasons. 1) He is in her clan. 2) He is in her clan. That’s enough. As seeing more biased reviews,I should say: Stop it.
ANOTHER EDIT: I didn’t see the re-upload. The eyecandy is really improved and a bit of gameplay. I am sorry,Shelly. I have fixed the rating.
Time for a review.
EYECANDY
8.7
The eyecandy is fine. The X and O signs,the wooden thing and the further background looks really nice. The usage of those…vines was awesome. I think they were set on the right place. But,I have a feeling that something more could be added to foreground layers. By the way…that tube could be added to foreground.
GAMEPLAY
9.0
The gameplay is good. The level is not as big as I expected,but the gameplay is still good.
PICKUPS
8.7
The ammo placement and the carrot placement is fine,though you could have added more powerups :P
OVERALL
8.8
Overall,it’s a pretty fine level. Good job,keep making levels.
Skele: I calculated your review ratings. It should be 8.6.
Nice level,though small. Gameplay is fine and I don’t see any tilebugs or eyecandy errors.
By the way. It’s Ancient. Not Acient.
I don’t really know how to rate this. The eyecandy is nice,ammo placement nice,but the gameplay…? The gameplay isn’t horrible but it isn’t really great. Too small and open for normal battles,still open for duels… Still,the level doesn’t deserve a bad rating. I won’t rate it for now.
I see a completely useless review…
Is there a reward for “0 of 11 users found this a good review”?
EDIT:Nice to see the review deleted.
I still don’t understand why I didn’t rate this before. I just say: Good job! This pack is awesome!
When I looked this upload,I was disappointed,but not by the program. I am talking about reviews. I see a few “1.x” reviews that make me really angry. You all take for a reason why you gave the rating 1 the fact that “JJ2+ already has MP3 support and it’s useless now.” I see something bad in it. Isn’t that really bad for a reason to give a rating 1? If I remember good,cooldude’s review for a program by a “good” player saying “i dont see any use in it” with rating 1 was deleted. So why these reviews are not deleted? Maybe because,well,a newbie (no offense) uploaded this? Or because “respected people” wrote the reviews?
Again on the reason: “now we have plus who needs this” isn’t an excuse to rate this 1. Why don’t you go and rate Carrotade and Grytolle’s versions 1? They are useless,we have plus now!
Why not? Because Blur and Grytolle uploaded those?
I don’t really think Blur stole the MP3 idea,but what if he did? Would anyone say “BLUR STOLE IT BLUR STOLE IT”? No. Why? Because Blur is respected community member. And what if Djazz and Sfaizst stole it from Blur?
Everyone would go like “THEY DID IT THEY DID IT” theory.
You now see what I wanted to say. Rating this 1 and getting away with it because a newbie uploaded this,isn’t really nice.
Now on the review:
I like the idea. It has some bugs,but it’s nice. I think I can ignore the bugs and give it 7.6.
Delete this,I don’t care. But it will show this again.
The program extracts pictures as .PNG files. When I try to edit them with Paint and save them as bitmap files that JCS supports and when I build the tileset,the tile background looks different than normal purple used and the mask gets completely opposite. Help!
DISTOPIA’S LAGCLONE,uh,I mean,DESERT STREET:
EYECANDY
6.0
From all the tiles this tileset offers,you have only chosen a few hills that go over and over again. No buildings in the background or pipes or whatever,just some wall eyecandy. (The eyecandy looks familiar,you’ll know what I wanted to say.)
GAMEPLAY
6.5
Too open for a small map like that. As seen in some of your reviews,you don’t like levels with narrow passages. (“i hit only wall wall wall”) Same for me here,the eyecandy wall sometimes looked like the real layer 4 wall. You tried to make a level with a lot of open space. Fail. While Spaz,you could just jump up and down raining hell on your enemy using electroblasters for walls,bouncers when up and toaster while moving,forcing enemies to enter the fire wall. That sounds like “SPAZ BIASED” map.
For the bases: There are two possibilities of defending: NOT defending it because of enemy high ground advantage or using the FIRE WALL tactic,blocking every path to the base. The enemy would a) get the flag and destroy you or b) get owned himself without even capturing the flag. Really.
EDIT: I even got stuck at 60,24 in the lower corner. How could you make that?
ANOTHER EDIT: The blue base looks a bit like Distopia one.
PICKUPS
6.0
Already said much before. Powerup area too campy,same for the lower C.
OVERALL
6.2
I don’t know what to say. Here you go with a DL rec because the level is (barely) playable,but better than some other levels with the DL rec.
(You would probably expect a word from me so here it is: EVILNESS.)
@Skele: 1) I can review what I want. 2)Does that mean only your TM friends can come here and rate it 10?
@Crazy Rabbit: Please stop commenting reviews and REVIEW the level.
