I promised review, so here it is.
Name of this level says everything. Enter Orbitus. Yes. Everything cool from Orbitus is here. Originality. Good eyecandy. Ammo placement here is really really bad. 50 tiles of ammo is too much for me. In this level misses any action. You are only slowly going and every 15 seconds shooting. This level is too short… It’s level to one two playing and that’s something about three minutes.
But I like this level, especially because of that blue from Orbitus… Yes. Originality. And FUN. I will give you 8 when you will make it longer.
D/L recommended if you are making levels and you want to make them very well.
(SabaSpaz, these reviewers are new and they are overrating. Sorry.)

This is a nice lvl, so lets review it!! :)
EYECANDY
It uses a nice tileset, and I didnt see a bug, means the eyecandy is also great! I didnt see 1 bug, and you used the tileset good. I’d like the eyecandy because it’s not only blueblueblue, or not only stars(this is in tileset orbitus) but it’s a mix from it. Keep this work up!
GAMEPLAY/ORIGINAL/FUN
If you see the game, you would say: “Wow! This is realy original!”.
The gameplay from “Enter Orbitus” is sometimes good, sometimes bad. The powerup down is irritating and funny. I have stand there and do many tricks to get it. But when i saw the lvl in JCS, there was no hole to it!=P And that electric shield is difficult to get. You come in a fast-sucker tube and you have to buttstomp to get it. But if you buttstomp to late, you cant get it. There are some difficult parts, REALY difficult, but you can get trough without using cheats.
The fun-factor is high for this lvl. I should give it a 9.0 for the fun. You have to jump, fall, be sucked:P, hurt and at the end there is a boss. It was funny to play this lvl.
GOODIES/ENEMY’S PLACEMENT
hmm… this is a bit bad. You see a long way no weapons, only food. Then you come somewhere there are 20 ammo tiles!! Then you see only food, and then again only weapons!=O You should put not to much and not to less ammo and food in the lvl. The food is overused on some places. Carrots? Yes they are! But I think this lvl needs 3-5 carrots and not 1-2 carrots.
The baddies are tough, good, but not allways good placed. 3/4 baddies is good placed.
And those diamonts.. PURPLE diamonts… 15 tiles full with PURPLE diamonts!! What the heck to do with!? Realy overused those diamonts! You should put not to much diamonts in the lvl! And also not only purple, but green and blue. And allmost on the end are 4 BIG diamonts, those are placed great. Realy difficult to get them=P
DOWNLOAD/PLAY/RATING
This lvl needs realy a Download Recommedation. The play-factor is also high, so play it more then 1 time I think.
And that rating… Here an 8.8!! (no 8.8, so I give 8.7=P)
Im realy waiting for that episode where your talking about! I should give it a high rating, if the lvl’s are just as great as this.

Good work! There were a load (a LOAAAAAD) of errors and bugs, so I had to cheat to get past some walls. There’s a problem with the buttons if you lose one life, the wall just don’t open, ya’.
Graphics? The Orbitus JJ1 tileset was used and I applaud him for using it so well. A tip, though- that part of the tileset that looked like an eye? You could have made it DESTRUCTIVE SCENERY so that there’s more of a Jazz1 feel to it. There were, however, a lot of repeated platforms in which I do not blame him for, as the Orbitus tileset only has those. 9.3
Music and FX? The original Orbitus music from JJ1 was used. No different FX. n/a
The enemies, fun, difficulty? Well-placed enemies, and the blue walls to bound off of do permit even more of the JJ1 Orbitus feel. Difficult, but could be a lot worse. 9.2
I give this peice of art 9.2. Have a good day, and I hope to see your level pack.[This review has been edited by suckatube]

Can be good for a first level, because there’s originality and fun. Also the level design is good.
My rating will be lower from Suckatube’s, because to have a good rating, you have to make the player satisfied. Because of that you have to complete your level pack and then show your level.
But I think your level pack will have a good rating when it’s finished:)[This review has been edited by chandie]

it has very good tile use and no bugs.and has some wicked gameplay. But there could be some modifications that could make it better.the weapon placement could be better and the eye candy was reasonable. the baddies were a bit tough but well placed. i liked the blue things hit u higher and the level used the normal music. the music was good and the level was fun and long ( not too long ).
there are no annoying parts that frustrate players but all in all it is an excellent level. I give this a 9.2![This review has been edited by nim]

hey sab cool lvl.yr lvl is a resonably long lvl but it has lots things to keep u happy whilst playin it.eyecandy is good.lots of ammo was good but to much help. Background is really cool and u have to use lots of finally revealing stratergies to complete the lvl. Danyjel
i think the most of the stuff u said about his lvl is untrue.Hey great lvl Thyst. P.S:read my reveiw about (industrious derby)[This review has been edited by messiah]

a very nice balance between challenge and creativity and i think this is probably one of those level that match almost exactly in event style (e.g: the bounce wall things). When i checked this level i found no bugs. Suckatubes review states that there are bugs in this level but i havn’t seen the need to cheat out of any problems. The hyperdrive tubes fitted the theme of the level pretty well, especially when your outside in the middle of space.
From the layout of the level i can see you’ve spent some quality time on it, along with fixing bugs and mistakes.
Overall i think this level would definatly be a good first level for your level pack. Good luck and keep it up.

I have deleted a number of irrelevant comments. If there is a suspicious review, please report it. Violet is right in that only one review per IP is allowed and that users should not rate the levels of those who they know well enough to render an IP match.
