    Eye candy:
    This level has very interesting eyecandy, such as a textured background that I didn’t even know you could make in Labrat levels! There are also some floating typical Labrat beakers, and some vertical pipes. The ground is varied (At least as much as you can vary it with Labrat) enough to make it not boring. Some cons about the eyecandy are that the ground is a little choppy in areas, (But I guess that’s to be expected in Labrat levels) and the conveyor belt looks strange, especially since it doesn’t do anything. Overall, my eyecandy score is 8.5.

    Gameplay:
    I thought this level was pretty fun, with a nice big area to play around in, and the ground not so cluttered that you couldn’t do anything. Springs were mostly placed well, although there were a few ones that were unneeded and a few others that propelled you into a wall. The bases are nicely balanced, I think both sides have a good chance. Overall gameplay score from me is 8.0.

    Placement:
    I think that there were sometimes too many weapons in this level. I guess I am a hoarder kind of guy, but I often found massive piles of ammo that nobody picked up. The carrots were placed excellently, though: a few placed in obscure locations did just the trick. Overall placement rating from me is 7.0.

    Overall: 7.8
    I enjoyed this level a lot, and hope to see more of your levels soon! I reccomend anyone who decided to read this to download this level.

    I somehow like Flag Rat a little more than this level.

    GAMEPLAY:

    Another platform level. Well, this one doesn’t have too many platforms, so it’s not so bad. The flow and the balance are good enough—nothing unbearable. I know this isn’t the biggest thing, but I would appreciate if that huge area of golden pipe things at the far right of the level was cut down a bit; it doesn’t have be that wide. Anyway, this doesn’t offer anything new as for gameplay, but it does have a decent layout.

    EYE CANDY:

    This level looks better than the version I saw in the server. Granted it now looks more ordinary, it’s better than the older version with that textured background which looks bad in 8-bit. What I don’t like is the floating tiles in the background and the way the background tiles move relatively too each other—a bit annoying and distracting. I don’t like the way a lot of the sprite layer tiles look either, but at least they don’t get in the way of the gameplay.

    CARROT AND AMMO PLACEMENT:

    The carrot placement is decent, except that maybe the +1 carrots should have been placed the same way for each side. I have no problems with the full energy carrot in the middle. Powerup placement is so-so. Perhaps three powerups instead of five would have been better. Ammo placement I can almost live with. The TNT and ice don’t serve much purpose here, though.

    HOST THIS OFTEN?

    I know I probably wouldn’t, sorry. 6.7’s my rating. And maybe the level shouldn’t loop to another level I possibly may not have. A warning would have been nice.

    Wow, this is much better then Flag Rat :D

    -Gameplay is smooth and fun all the way. I have found alot of ways people can develope SKILL in this level!

    -Eyecandy is very unusual for this tileset. Like Acid said, I have never seen such a texured backround mixed with weird yet fun and odd acid balls floating around!

    -Placement is very nice, especially carrots and the full NRG. Everything is so fair for each team, and the NRG is something both teams will for sure struggle to earn.

    -The layout was ok, and using metal and stone of the tileset, it did not get boring :P

    Download this? YED
    Host this? Why not add it to a level pack that is coming out soon?

    I loved this level and it is very fun and hard to get bored of. This is more of a 3v3, 4vs4 or public 6-maybe 7 people.
