Err… Err… Uhhm… Well, forgive me Evilmike and other admin dudes, but i have just no way to describe this tileset at the moment. Must be due to a lack of inspiration. For now, grab this 8.0. BIG download recomendation.[This review has been edited by >CelL<]
The example level sucked :P[This review has been edited by >CelL<]
Really awesome tileset. Only it looks so much on normal Paint colours :)
By the way, great music and example level.

Hmmmmm… not a 7.7, but not an 8.2…
An 8 seems suitable :P. Lemme explain:
It’s not a 7.7 because it has a lot of good tiles in it (almost agama-like). And it’s not an 8.2 because the tiles may have been made slightly better, the bones aren’t masked perfectly, and the mountains in the BG look almost horrendeos. But it’s still a pretty good tileset. So download it and make some levels with it.
A Skulg tileset! Better not let that influence my rating..
Anyway, this is a tileset. It uses a style that is Highly obviously copied from Blade.
It looks great, except for the Basic Blocks, which lack that special something that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
It has most of the Tileset essentials, including two kinds of vines It’s also got some of those basic tiles you can use by just plopping all over the place, with the four blocks per tile.
Mountain ranges, textured background, arrows, girders, skeleton hands, bones, faces, animations.. I like it. But the Speed, Destruct and Stomp blocks need work. (Originality isn’t quite enough)

Aiko would/will say: Another tileset masterpiece from my homelands.
..
Well, it is true . This tileset absolutly rocks !!!
You made good animations (the light on the hurts and the red in the eyes).
You made all basic tiles (poles, suckertubes, vines aso.).
THe whole set is an original idea…
HM how to say.. It’s skulg – style :)
go on ….
P.S.: COol lvl + music, CelL .

Great tileset man! The bones are great and the metal blocks also, there are cool things like a skull with glowing eyes, dripping blood, skeleton hands, etc. The only thing I don’t like are the mountains for the backgound layer, they are bladeish, but with less quality…:(

Oh man this tileset rules!! Exelent choice of music too (not that that has anything to do with the rating). It doesn’t look SO nice in JCS, but it looks great in JJ2!
A perfect 10! (just to add to the rating)

Very decent tileset I must say.. Especially the moon gives it a special mood. The only bad thing about it is that its very, well, square. Too bad the landscape is built entirely of squares with no alternatives or pieces of real ‘landscape’, which makes it very… 2D. But nice job anyway ;). And nice music.

Excellent tileset, Skulg! I absolutely LOVE it!! Death Metal is simply…er…darn…I forgot the word I was gonna write. But you know what I mean Skulg, don’t you?
Death Metal is a very small tileset. It has got only about 320 tiles and a couple tiles are pretty useless. However, the tileset is very well designed and tiles are sensibly placed without getting all confusing. The few animations in the tileset are fabulous and they look very realistic. I can’t say that this tileset is very useful though. It’s only capable of making scary lvls with (something that suits me just fine :-D). But these few things shouldn’t really put you off, cause there are much better stuff coming up!
The eyecandy of the tileset, for example, is just great. It’s got loads and loads of bones and skulls around making the tileset seem even more…er…scary. The bones can also act as a kind of bridge, very similar to the one’s in Inferno. Some tiles are also covered in blood (no, not my blood) but the blood kinda looks like paint… However, the blood is very well drawnand it still looks very creepy. There are also some other things which can add to the eyecandy. But I ain’t gonna tell you ppl that! You got to download the tileset and find out for yerself. :-P
Death Metal is also a fully equipped tileset. It’s got background tiles for all background layers and has got trigger, buttstomp, destruct tiles too. And that’s not the end. Vines, hooks, poles and shiny, metal spikes are part of the tileset too. As you can see, Skulg has put everything a lvl designer needs in Death Metal. :-)
Now, my fingers are hurting now, so I’m gonna stop writing now. Thanks a lot for making your best ever tileset, Skulg. :-) You deserve this big, fat, juicy, yummy (and so on) 9.
To everyone else: Download NOW.[This review has been edited by White Rabbit]

Woah! Great german-dutch co-production in this pack. (where the german part, the tileset, is the best, of course ;-).
“Death Metal” has 320 beautiful tiles for you and your JCS and just looks great. It has a whole lot of useful stuff like spikes, vines, poles diagonals and erm…bones. Many bones. And metal. And some bubble blood bath. Not to forget a few background structures like a dark sky with stars, a half moon or those mountains. All in all, very cool (yes, also the masking with your witty message and so on :-).
Cell’s example battle level is 80*80 tiles large and looks very good, too. It has lots of platforms, navigation is fluent and there is some really sweet eyecandy. Horribly playable, i’d say (not to mention the long and a bit too large “Almagest” music tune by canadian tracker Stefan Xenos, which isn’t bad either).
Oh and Blade, old dude, it’s more like “Skulg *WO*man” ;-) German style, mehr davon, Skulg!! Acht fette Punkte für dich (<— describes my high rating of…eight points! w00p!). “Death Metal” and the whole pack is a MUST DOWNLOAD for everyone, of course.[This review has been edited by Aiko]

“Skulg-man”, “man”… Skulg is a GIRL, man! :P. For review read Aiko’s review, rating 8,5. Foo.[This review has been edited by Fl@$h aka BlewMeUp]
Looks cool….I like it……Not excellent, but deserves an 8.5.
The bone bridge is AWESOME. The spikes have a good theme and the skeleblox are cool, although im not favorly fond of these skele-sets.[This review has been edited by Blackraptor]

Nice tileset. Plenty of detail put into simple blocks. If Blur didn’t make a Survivor level with this yet, I’m sure there will be one in his next Survivor pack.
