A nice little battle, by spaz18, it might not be as good for duels as the author states, but it is a nice level for casual gameplay.
Although the rather small level has 5 powerups it doesn’t really have too many, as the author has restricted your means to get most of them in some way. Visually the level is alright, the author has done just about all he can with the rather limited tileset. The one issue I have with the visual aspects of the level is that the snow will only work if you are player one, so the author should have used the snow tiles in the tileset. The carrot in the level could be abit easier to get, but it is only a minor issue. One other problem with the level is that it is somewhat confusing to find the powerups, and both the pepper spray, and bouncer powerups are biased for spaz, as jazz doesn’t have room to uppercut them.
All in all, it’s a fine level, which I reccomend you play this Christmas season.
I agree with Birdie that this level can be played best in a public server.
Gameplay
The gameplay is certainly the least best part of this level. This level consists mostly of a platform with a ring af titles arround which have some holes where you can get to small parts which aren’t arround that platform.
Eyecandy
This level has a nice christmas sfere, thanks to its eyecandy. You made a lot of things flicker and move, your background is very nice, though the foreground and layer 4 could have been way more decorated.
Originality
With distance the best part of your level. You made having many power ups in your level not bad because most of them are not very easy to get for the average public server joiner. It is also nice that when you blow up a trigger crate and when you went to the place where the triggers dissapeared, they reappear and you have to blow up the trigger crate again.
I want to mension two things before I’ll put my ratings down here. This was a very difficult level to review, which could be a postive and a negative thing. And at last I have to give you a +0,3 for the music because it just gives your level extra sfere. Be proud, I never give extra point for music.:P
(+0,3)
Gameplay: 5,5
Eyecandy: 6,5
Originality: 8
Final Grade: 7
I recommend this for someone’s Christmas Pack.

This is a really nice, albeit small, level using the JJ1 Holidaius Night tileset by Violet. The +1 carrot, IMO, is a bit too hard to reach, though. Nice level anyways. :D ;)

Well level is very small so 5 PU’s is too much. Gameplay is ok but it’s not the best part of this level. I like the eyecandy. It’s nice and original.
