A race level by Jaws, review
Layout/Gameplay: A lot of the level basically has you running over collapse scenery, and a bit of climbing/falling and platform hopping as well. The obstacles aren’t really all that original (but I’ll discuss that later), and you appear to have forgot to place one ways under the spikes at the end, so now you can get stuck there under them, same with the masked green snakes popping up from the ground, and any other masked things popping up from the ground. The ‘last obstacle’ doesnt work in MP (evil jj2 programmers) so you have to host is as race, and that sucks.
Eyecandy: Very little of it. Firstly, making a level based on only one setting of the lost viking world (space, dino place, cave place, egypt, weird place, candy place etc whatever I forgot) isnt such a good idea because you will get a limited supply of tiles to use. Limited tiles = limited eyecandy = limited rating ;P. The backround, firstly, is very repetetive,you could’ve put something new in it or at least some backround eyecandy to cover it up. The eyecandy in the walls is a bit boring, the same tiles used over and over again. There is at least a variety of brick tiles you could’ve spread out in the walls, or put something interesting in them like maybe the quicksand, water or lava pools, or some l4 ground with crypts/torches. Be creative ;D.
Placement of stuff: A few packets of random freezer ammo placed in random areas. It could be alright for some people, but I think its too few. Next time, try putting a bit more in areas, and maybe put a larger variety of ammo, like Freezer, TNT, maybe something else if you want like seekers.
Originality: Not really. I’ve seen most of these (including the last obstacle0 done many times before, but that part with the mummy is cool (how it jumps out, walks etc) so that brings the rating of this up a bit.
Overall (not an average): Its an alright level, it just needs some work, and perhaps another last obstacle (I had that same problem with ‘Cat Maze’ where my platforms wouldnt appear in multiplayer so I improvised and replaced them with dissapearing and reappearing blocks). And this certainly does not get a 9.5. This still has its pros, though.
RATING TIME >||:
Layout/Gameplay: 6.3
Eyecandy: 6.2
Placement of Stuff: 6.5
Originality: 7
Overall (not an average): 7.5 (I feel nice =P)
Final rating is….takes out calculator: 6.7, rounded to….6.7! The level is alright, but needs some spiffing up. Next time, a better tileset choice could help, as well as more eyecandy and MP functioning objects. Race levels are rare these days though, so you get a +0.3 for making one ;D. Download reccomended to race level fans, and maybe to others who have enough free time. 7.
