Before I review this, I’d just like to state 2 things:
1. This is NOT 1.23 compatible. Please change it to TSF. Make sure you check that you have chosen the right version BEFORE uploading.
2. Please include the tileset in the Zip file as this level wouldn’t work. I had to search J2O for the tileset.
On to the review now.
EYECANDY
First off, the Layer 8 Background is buggy as it doesn’t join up properly. Everything looks repetitive, there is hardly any eyecandy anywhere. Only the same black square tile is used too often. Also, “Top Secret” is used far too often for Test levels so please use something else if anyone is thinking of making a test level.
1/10
GAMEPLAY
Some of the tests were quite cool. I liked the one where you get stuck in the wall and keep jumping. Others were mostly using the copter to float down through the obstacles. The second wall climb level has no warps meaning I get stuck there and had to use JJFLY to move on.
The text events weren’t in English, meaning I couldn’t understand what to do. The Winner’s Room was poor. It was just loads of Blue Gems in one big room with no exit. While some of the tests were good, most of the others were just the same meaning it got boring.

DOWNLOAD?
Poor eyecandy and one unworking wall climb test make this a level you do not want to download. So in other words, no DR.
