    Ok, here comes a review.
    First impressions: A level by Ðx.

    Gameplay: Good. The gameplay is nothing special, there is a huge dead end at the bottom-right. There are more dead ends in this level, too. The spring placement seems good, but nothing really special. I dont like the gameplay that much, like I said. There are some hidden things that are made hidden by the waterfalls that are annoying imo. But, that seems original with this tileset. The tileset is overused, too.
    Conclusion gameplay: Good, but nothing special.

    Eye candy/Tileset use: Good/Very Good. The eye candy here is very nice, but I think it’s overused a lot. Like I said, that waterfalls are very annoying but also very original. Dx used this in another level of him, a SP. The tileset use is very good imo. There is a nice use of plants, pumpkins, carrots, trees and all other things that are in the carrotus tileset.
    Conclusion eye candy: Very nice, but overused and annoying with the waterfalls.

    Pickup placement: Good. Again, not the best, but it’s decent. I will explain. There isn’t too many ammo in some places of this level. There was alot of ammo in some places, but alot less in others. The groups of ammo were not too original, because there was mostly 3×3 or 3×2 ammo. One group of gun9 looked interesting, though. There are way too many Power-Ups here, there is Bouncer, Ice, Toaster, Seeker, RF and Gun8 I think. That means only no Gun9 and Blaster PU. You already knew proably, but this level is too small for that many PU. Like 3 or 4 would be better. There is also alot of Fast Fire, probably too many. There are also extra lives at the start, and Dx told me that he used them for the fun.
    Conclusion pickup placement: Not too good this time.

    Originality: Good/Very Good. This is quite original. the tileset is used too many, but the music is only used one time I think. And that was for Dx’s SP level Wasted Time(not Times) That waterfalls looked original, like I said, but it was also very annoying. Also, the background looked interesting. It was looking light in the night.
    Conclusion originality: An original level.

    Others:
    Host this: well, not too often, maybe if you are bored.
    Download this: Sure, but not a real recommendation.
    Final Rating: 7.2.

    P.S. Ðx: I said that this is Battle and Wasted Time is Single Player, you understand?[This review has been edited by da man]

    Okay I will review it only because it is made for me :) and I like it.

    First of all I have to say that Wasted time was better than this one but I still like it.
    The idea is original – I see that now you also Have used textured Background as waterfall (Ithink that Eviil Mike has used it in one of his level).

    Gameploay is really good here – there are many “rooms” and ammo placement is rather good. Sorry but I will end my review now so I am giving you an 8.

    Hey ÐX, thx for your good review (wooaah, rating 8.0)

    So, here is our review for your „wasted times“

    Eyecandy:
    This lvl looks very good!
    -We really like this waterfall (nice idea to use the textured background)
    -In the foreground is this glittering rain, that looks good
    -but the water-places don’t look so nice (ok, the tileset has no water)

    Ammo and PU’s:
    Nice, but you can place the ammo better! There are too many weapons on one place, and on other places there are no weapons. It’s difficult to find the seeker-PU. But this is very good, because I think the seeker is the best weapon!

    Gameplay:
    Yeah, we played this lvl (kalle has won, grrr…) and it was really fun!
    Only one mistake: there is only one start-pos, so you’re always starting at the same place.

    Altogether is this a nice lvl and it’s worth to download it!
