    Yet again a below average level. Uses the MEZ03 tileset, has okay eye candy, a strange (kind of hotel like) layout, along with some sort of puzzle like thing needed to get into the main battle place. Not very interesting. The puzzle idea isn’t original, and is quite tedious. (I mean, c’mon, I had to use jjcoins to get out of it), also the eye candy is kind of confusing at times.

    Overall I was undecided about a rating.. so I settled on 3.5. Not worth a d/l IMO.

    “Futuristic Times” has one big problem: its not really a battle level (despite the author describes it as one) but not really a single player level either.

    The whole design (which is quite good at the beginning in the upper left corner, but then gets worse in the lower right corner) would better fit for a SP map. A battle level should be circular and allow easy navigation.

    The eyecandy is also good at the beginning (see? thats the problem: a good battle level never has a beginning at all) but then loses quality in the other areas of the map.
    The JJ1 3D Bonus stage music fits quite good for MEZ levels, i think.

    To conclude my review…“Futuristic Times” is definitely below the average and therefore not really a top candidate for a download. It just needs some more work (low four points).

    Oh and “stenace”, reviews are never meant as personal attacks but as objective (at least we hope so) comparisons with other levels. We just want to help creating the largest list of homecooked stuff for J2 to make peoples download decisions easier. We can’t rate certain levels higher just ‘cause they were made by a beginner. If you want to discuss this, i invite you to visit the JMMB.

    P.S.:
    Wrong next level setting (leads to a level thats not in the pack).

    I don’t have to add many things to the other reviews.

    The extra 0.2 points are for using one of my favourite tilesets: The MeZ Series.

    And, as everyone mentioned, never pick on a reviewer. They just like the level or not. That’s why they write reviews :).

    This is a short review. It has less impact on the upload's score.

    well, really you all reviewers are quite right, the puzzles arent really difficult (may I say that they suck?nah, it’s not that bad) and the battle isn’t really a battle, like Aiko said a battle level doesn’t have beginnings (check mine for example) and a real battle isnt a battle with a few blocks and some powerups. I must admit, in a level like that I didnt make good battles too but, anyway i’ll give a 4 becuz it is your 2nd level.(i was a little undecided anyway)
