    Well done! You have greatly created good tileset from jj1, I wanted to give it 8 already, but when I noticed that example level, it was greatly done that jj1 tube electric one level, doh, I couldn’t even remember that, that level has so much ammunition and so less enemies. That’s true. Take this nice 8.7

    MISSING TILES: Sadly, this tileset misses quite a few tiles, most notable being more tiles on top of Tubelectric’s various backgrounds. If you look at the example level, you’ll notice that the author had to use layer 5 several times. Also some of the tiles for the golden animation stuff.
    Pros: Most tiles are there, more then ever before.
    Cons: Not all, and needing layer 5 is always a downside.
    Rating: 7.0

    ANIMATIONS: Tubelectric was a very animated place, and as far as I can see, the animations are all here.
    Pros: Most everything is here.
    Cons: One or two missing, such as the slope tiles for the golden stuff.

    COLORS: Everything looks great, any color loss is not noticed.
    Pros: Everything’s there.
    Cons: None.
    Rating: 8.7

    ADDED TILES: Ouch. This is the tileset’s main failing place – there are practically no added tiles at all. No textured background, poles, vines, belts (I can see Belts in Tubelectric, can’t you?), or even tiles to expand the possibilities of things that already exist, like stuff for the big glowing stuff from Tubelectric and Labrat. If you make a level with this tileset, it’ll be have to be rather JJ1 style – although you can’t use the shooters very well, as the author neglected to include an animation for them firing their fire things.
    Pros: Many more tiles then in the tileset’s last incarnation.
    Cons: Missing almost anything new.

    OVERALL (not an average): This is a very good JJ1 conversion with great colors and animations, except that it’s missing a few tiles and has nothing new to work with. The tileset name is the same as the previous version (thankfully the filename isn’t), but I’m willing to forgive this.
    Pros: Everything looks great and very faithful (as you can see in the example level.. pity the author didn’t do the second one or he’d have found some new tiles).
    Cons: Too many missing things.

    Oh.. forgot Masking. Anyway, it’s just fine, except for a few bumpy parts on the huge glowing things, and one of the platforms. Also the masking for the shooters, considering how they’re used, could be better. However, I have decided not to have this affect my rating of 7.5. Good work overall Newspaz, but it could have used more beta testing.

    A conversion, great, i love conversions. Here goes the review.

    Let me just mention what a good idea it is to have the example level for a jj1 tileset be an actual remake of the level, it was really interesting. Anyways, the tileset was well done. The colors are great, nice to look at and a great copy of the original. There are many tiles added which I missed in the first version, such as the yellow ground animations. There are also many tiles left out, such as destruct blocks and belts (I can really imagine them in the tubelectric set). With those added on (hopefully they will be if the author decides to make a v3) a really excellent level can be made with this set. To bad that the animation of the lazer that the turrets fire isnt included in this version, but the turrets themselves are. I didnt like the mask of the big lights, it was a bitbumpy and all. But the masking is ok, and I can manage a few minor cons. The userfriendly part is ok, not to bad, but not excellent. The animations are great, nothing wrong. Well, the tileset is suffering from some major cons, but other than that its a greatremake and would be used by someone hoping to find a good jj1 tubelectric work. I havent seen much uploads recently by you NewSpaz, and i hope you will make more conversions in the future. For the level ill give it an 8 and a download reccomendation, since it was a great remake.

    Well done Newspaz. This thing isn’t exellent, but I like it. The ‘spikes’ instead of turrets has just kicked me like elecrtic bolt. Isn’t a nice idea (points down). Also cool example level that is based on JJ1 Tubelectric.

    Dunno why you make JJ1 Tubelectric while it’s similar to JJ2 one, but worse? Anyway, the tileset is OK, but there are some tiles missing. Also, as Violet said, you could make the turrets shoot (make shots masked and put hurt on them). Also, shield is missing in the beginning of example level.

    Newspaz isn’t obselete since he uploaded this… you should look at the old Tubeelectric level and look for errors in your tileset. I have Jazz 1 Diamondus as well, but whos gonna be 1st to upload J1 Medivo? That I’d like to see
