Before I review this, I’d like to mention that you should not upload this as a RAR file as it wouldn’t work properly when opened in J2O.
Anyway, lets get started. On first opening the file, I think “OMG, 54 levels!” But I then find it’s not so good.
EYECANDY
Some of the levels have good backgrounds but the eyecandy in Layer 4 is very bad, there are tilebugs everywhere. Some of the levels also had very bad backgrounds which looked a mess. Also, not many of the levels used animated tiles.
1.2/10
GAMEPLAY
The gameplay in this pack is poor. I have no idea where I’m going. Everywhere I go, there’s a Warp I’d never expect. There was even a checkpoint NEXT TO the exit sign in one of the levels. Why?
1/10
PICKUP PLACEMENT
Very poor. There are PUs everywhere. Some of them were even RE-GENERATING which would make the level too easy. Shields could also be found out in the open. There wasn’t enough food and there were Gems everywhere.
1/10
ENEMY PLACEMENT
There wasn’t very many enemies in this pack either. Not enough to kill me and the placement was bad.
1/10
OBSTACLE PLACEMENT
There was Buttstomp, Destruct & Trigger Scenery but they were all too easy to get through. Placement is not bad but it’s too easy to get through them.
2/10
TOTAL SCORE: 6.2/50 = 1.24
Rounded to 1.2
RANK: F = Bad
DOWNLOAD?
Backgrounds are good in some levels but the eyecandy in Layer 4 in all levels is very bad. So, no DR.
COMMENTS
1. Think about what music you choose for each level. E.G. Christmas music in a Labrat level is not a good choice.
2. Spend a lot more time on your levels. Try thinking about how the level looks. It’s not about how many levels there are, it’s more about the quality of each level. Remember, QUALITY, NOT QUANTITY. ;)
@WR: You’ll have to open it in WinRAR as that’s what it was uploaded as (I think).
