Well, this level consists of running through a level which the author probably tried to make seem more realistic then anything else.
Most of the obstacles consist of running along, then noticing you passed an entrance. Generally, though, you go in a straight line.
But there’s one obstacle where a flock of birds go up and down in unison, which is more spooky then anything else. They’re solid, but hard to crash into.
The eyecandy’s great, it seems the author can use his own tileset. (I’m pretty sure he made it)
I can’t say I enjoyed this level very much. There’s a point where realism stops being fun and starts being just boring.

Sadly, I didn’t enjoy this level much. I agree with Violet CLM, it’s meant to be realistic, but it’s also meant to be a race – you don’t really have much time to view the lovely animals.
The layout of this level is also annoying. It’s a straightforward race, from one end of the level to the other, with various obstacles and going underwater along the way. What I found most annoying was the bit at the start, where you go along some lilies to get some bouncy-bullet ammo, then realise you have to go all the way back again because you missed an entrance.
Also, I found some of the scenery quite annoying. I found it hard to distinguish between the layers, the trees all look sort of the same. I often ran into a tree not knowing it was there, wondering what the hell is going on.
The choice of ammo is weird – mainly bouncy-bullet ammo (I use TNT and ice for my races) – and is placed in places that you have to divert off the main course to get, and you won’t use them much.
I also had a bit of difficulty at the end – I wondered what those birds were for, and couldn’t find the exit warp, then tried jumping on some Layer 5 tiles in vain. I wouldn’t use this level much, it’s far too annoying.
Despite that there is a few bugs in the level, its an ok race. I like the bird idea, its cool, and good tileset use (even if it is your own tileset) and there are dead ends, which isnt so good for race, if used in a bad way. Still gets a d/l reccoemdation form me

I’VE ALWAYS HATED MANATI’S BUT STILL THE LEVEL STRUCTURE IS GOOD
Perhaps a little long for a race level. I liked the water, but the tileset used wasn’t very nice. :\ And the eyecandy was nothing special. Still, it’s a pretty good level.

Gameplay: weird. This map is more like a swimming race rather then a fast race. It is like a jungle survival map. The lenght of the map 6,0
Weapons:I saw few weapons and I agree Shen that “where you go along some lilies to get some bouncy-bullet ammo, then realise you have to go all the way back again because you missed an entrance.” The positioning of the ammo wasn’t so inspired. Some freezer was welcomed also.4.5
Music: I liked the music and I thinks it suits well with a jungle race level, but the music could be more faster. 7,0
Tileset: The tileset seem to be original and made by yourself. I liked that animals and also the animation of them. 8,5
Overall: It is a medium lenght race and a pretty har one.
Total: 6,5
