True Madness? Not even. True madnes is when you’re snowboarding down a mountain in your EXTREEEME Loonatic underwear being chased by 3 pirates to get to… Right, anyways what Iluz has made is a normal test like level, which is enough to bore you to death, but like Kramer did with the blue flower stuff in Batman Begins, Iluz has weaponized an otherwise rather harmless level. Not even Low Detail will save you from this, oh and near the end when Jazz is trapped in the pit of doom, don’t fly you’re way out wait a bit and get hit by a smoke ring, thats EXTREEEEME!
Right, since the level’s design is linear and puts you in two situations where the objective is “Don’t get hurt!” and one situation where its “Copter ears? Erm… I’m Spaz… But I can doble jump to the end of the pit and then double jump out of it. And Lori can just sidekick her way out.” The only challenge comes from not being swift, and not being distracted. It took me about 4 minutes to have my eyes hurt so I just jjgod’d my way out of the level(I for some reason always wanted to destroy every last being in the pit)
And then you are treated to a sucker tube ending and then you’re done.
You get a .1 because gameplay and level just plain sucked, the eyecandy did more harm then good, and heck I had more fun playing A Sad Beach(You’ve done the impossible since I promised never to mention a Sad Beach ever again so an other .1 for you). In fact a Sad beach is more fun than this.
Download Reccomendation: HECK NO. Unless you want something thats trippy for about 5 seconds(See:Smoke ring part) then I would never hit that Download button. EVER.
To Iluz: the gameplay could be improved if the situations were much harder(For example, have all of the spike balls go fast, and have the bird part be in a smaller area so the enemies have an advantage) and NEVER HAVE THAT HORRIBLE FLASHY TILE THING EVER EVER AGAIN

No, no, no, no, and NO!! This has got to be a joke! I knew I was about to get myself into something not dissimilar to an acid trip in combination with ecstasy, but unfortunately with an added dose of epileptic seizures.
Problems:
1) The paths have all been covered. In other words, you can’t get from one place to the next without physically moving to every inch of the level looking for a way out.
2) Not a single part of the actual tileset was used! All you see is a couple of enemies over the brain-melting animation of tiles that were meant for destructive scenery.
3) This level is a health hazard. I swear to you, it could trigger a seizure quicker than a Japanese strobe light in a robot band concert. Gahhhh!
That’s it. I’m done. Still wanna download it? Be my guest. Make sure you have a buyer first for your liquified remains.

MADNESS
OUCH! MY EYES!
EYECANDY
Nothing but flashing tiles in the background. Very bad if you are epileptic. DON’T play this for more than 1 MINUTE otherwise you’ll get a headache.
0/10
GAMEPLAY
Just go through some fast spinning spike balls. Turn into a Frog, then a Bird then Copter over a pit of enemies into a Sucker Tube to the end. This took me about 30 seconds to complete.
1/10
ENEMY & OBSTACLE PLACEMENT
There was some fast spinning spikeballs. There were loads of enemies. This level is really hard to finish without using JJINV or JJRUSH, which is what I resorted to when I was a Bird.
1/10
ITEM & BONUS PLACEMENT.
No items except a Bird Morph. No Bonus Area.
1/10
TOTAL = 3/40 (0.75)
But it will have to be a 1.0 since scores like that can’t be done anymore.
DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATION?
NO! Unless you want a headache and sore eyes.
You know, just the fact that this has gotten over 231 downloads and the fact my 7.7 single player pack only has 177 really makes me wounder.
Eyecandey
My…../-….GOD! THIS IS HORRIBLE! MY EYES! I“M GOING BLIND! NEED SHADES. This is NOT an exaggeration. My eyes are sore from looking at it! It uses flashy color blocks for the whole level! PLEASE MAKE IT STOP! I WISH I COULD GIVE OUT NEGATIVES! IN FACT, I WILL!
-5/10
Gameplay
All you’re really doing is dodging a bunch of enemies while randomly morphing into frogs or birds. In you have the nerves to get to the end, you have to cross a pit and as n00b said, you get a sucker tube ending. I can’t tell you how boring it is. You’re probably just going to JJGOD everything to get away form the blinking lights!
1/10
Pickups
Nothing.
0/10
Enemies
Just bunches of random enemies. Nothing else. Oh and there is a pit with bunches of enemies.
1/10
Final Score:-3/10
Score: 1
Rank: Z
DR? This is the first time I’ve ever given out a negative rating. I had a lot more fun with sad Beach like n00b said! Heck compared to this, sad beach sets the standard. I can’t give it a -3, so I’ll give it a 1 instead.

This will be a pain for every epileptic, please put in a normal background.
I typed jjq after 20 seconds when my eyes began hurting.
