    bahbah I had a long review for half this pack posted but I pressed the wrong button and it died.

    Blizzard Catastrophy

    To summarize the long paragraph I had about this level – The eyecandy needs a lot of work. The snow is unrealistic and falls like boulders out of the sky, and much of the level is empty or tiles poorly. Layout – the top part of the level is extremely empty – barely anything is there. The carrots at the top left are also too close. Pickup placement is sparce in some parts, and lacks creativity a lot.

    Gold Rush Mountains
    The eyecandy here is great – the only setback for it is that it is sometimes confusing and you cant tell what’s what (like bottom left) – try to avoid that in the future. Layout is alright, except for many parts being crowded. I like the coin idea and the destruct blocks in the level, adds more originality to it. Placement of stuff is alright.

    Hyperborean Atmosphere

    LRK shows us what can be done with a keen set. The layout of this level – except for the unneedingly long top right passage that ends with strong wind – is well done. The eyecandy here is very atmospheric and nicely done – considering the set used. I also like the use of the glass domes. Pickup placement is good.

    Superslick Santa Showdown

    Interesting tubelectric edit, but I don’t like what’s been done with the palette. It looks like some poorly colored set from an old game, and is dull for the eyes. The eyecandy here is extremely confusing, solid tiles are used in backround and foreground layers and it gives headaches telling what’s what. Layout uses a few interesting tricks, but I don’t like it all that much. Much of it is just….random. Placement of stuff was ok but could use work. Way too many fastfires in one place in this level. Music choice could also be better. Next level setting is nonexistant.

    WORST CHRISTMAS LEVEL EVER

    nah I wouldnt say so. This level uses the HH98 set (diff. version then gold rush mountains). Eyecandy here was good, but not as good as in Gold Rush Mountains imo. Layout was decent. The left side of the level was unmasked in some parts (not going to spend time explaining what that leads to), I think there were too many poles on the right, and I didn’t like how the area behind the huge house was a dead end. (Also not all of it was fully covered by layer 3).

    CTF

    Winter Melody

    Firstly, the filename of this level in the text was misleading >(. Otherwise, this is my favorite level in the pack. The backround looks great (except maybe in 8bit), and the layout is superb. Placement of stuff was nice and creative. The music choice along with the eyecandy gives this level a great atmosphere.

    Snowman’s Land

    Using the day version of HH98, another level by White Rabbit. Eyecandy is not as good as in the other level but decent. Layout is alright, but much of it is either too narrow or too open. The bridge was also rather unnecessary. Placement of stuff was good.

    Algid Jollification:

    I remember LRK showing this level to me a long while ago and asking me to do some part of the eyecandy (dunno if he kept it in or not). Otherwise, the music is quiet but nice. I like the atmosphere and eyecandy of the level. Layout is also a relatively strong point. Basically another good level in the pack (I like this better than Hyperborean Atmosphere).

    Merry Hypothermia

    Ahahaha the level name, and the beginning of the music gave me a good laugh (even my spaz played the laughing animation). I like the snow (even though it might be falling a bit too slow). Eyecandy is about average, (lots of parts look plain). Layout was generally fine, and so was placement of stuff.

    And so, my review ends. I think this pack is good, but a bit overrated.
    Average of this pack comes down to a 7.566666666666666667 or something, but I’ll round up to a 7.7. Many of the levels are really good, but some need a bit of work. A (rather) late merry christmas!

    Small review :P

    Lets start. i like the lvls really but i dont like dalspots one, mayby he is’t so good in jcs but he will own me in jj2 online. The eyecandy is awsome in all the levels, the layout and the placement is fine. The level from Flash is incridble really, the eyecandy is 10/10 it cant be better and the layout is perfect. The battle levels ar mayby 2 % better then ctf but i can’t really say that.

    I hope you guys will make something new soon ;D

    Sorry for quick review

    Er….the tilesets not included are the HH98 tilesets, which are made by Epic and are official. You should have them already, Dx. :p
