Heh… a Christmas tileset. And not a bad one at that :) like his Compotition entry with more.
This is a great tileset. The tiles are simple, but look great. It’s got everything a Christmas tileset should have: christmas trees, dressed-up snowmen… ‘Jesus was here’ text… plus all the types of destructable scenery, sucker tubes and vines… Yeah. It’s basically snowy mountains with some christmas stuff in.
The eye-candy is good. For example, in the mountains at the background you can see trees growing alone and in forests. Also, there are three types of layer 8 parallax backgrounds – a red one, and a blue and white ones that don’t work too well. There’s layer 7 and 6 stuff as well, and even rain for layer 1 if you need it. Some other stuff includes letters and numbers, a raising green thing, bulbs and lights and stuff, and coloured zones.
The example level is weird. It’s a battle, with two basic ‘zones’, left and right. Still, it shows what you can do with the tileset, and other than its ‘weirdness’ (I can’t think of any other way to describe it) it’s fine.
Overall it gets a 9/10. Download recommendation? Yep :)
Edit: Forgot to rate it. Aren’t I silly.[This review has been edited by Shen]
This tileset is really cool, but however, the snow looks flat, too flat, the hole tileset looks flat. Overall, I think this is a great tileset, and I recom you download it.
Hmmm….lets start out with the bad points.
The tileset looks to cartoonish and hand drawn, doesnt look very “real” like ET’s, Agama’s or Disguise’s sets. (There are others who make “real looking” sets, but im not going to list you all). Also, the color is a bit screwed when you play. (Jazz is red and the ammo color has turned strange) Some tiles also dont look to good.
The good points: The tileset has some very nice christmas and hannukah like tiles. Some of it is drawn very well and gives you a warm welcoming feeling :). It has the needed tiles to make a good level. It also has presents and snowmen and all those holiday things.
There are many things im leaving out, but my overall point is that it has good and nice looking tiles which make it above average. It has the needed blocks which boost up the rating. The color is kinda weird which lowers the rating. Its also too cartoonish looking to get higher than a 9, and some tiles are unimportant. But other than that, its still a great tileset and a good addition to any tileset collector’s folder.

This is one of CB’s nicest tileset, a christmas one, a bit late, but nice. It looks like a cartoon, a very other style than Agama or Disguise or Blade or whatever.
It is a very nice tileset, the pallete (Lol, Violet) is lol because you look like santa, the weapons look nice too, but especially the seekers. They are blue-green. Heheh.
Im too busy too scribble a long review, this is all what i can say now. Download re-co-mo-da-ti-on. Whatever.

This is one of the best levels I ever played! Nice tileset, it gives me the sensation of calming down every-time I play one of your levels! All respect, man. Peace!

Just for what it’s worth, the modified palette colors are intentional, as he told me to do them.
Shen, those 2 other backgrounds aren’t ment to work as textured, they’re made for a moving background (gives the effect of moving clouds, strong winds).
WOW i dont say it because i’m in cc but this is very good! too bad that i cant rate because i’m in CC my rate is a 8.6
