Maybe this pack is for laYmERs…
Gameplay
There are trees all spammed over the entire level. You are able to stand on some of their tops and on some you can’t stand. The flow is just crappy, the level is just build up out of some horizontal layers of platforms and it’s too hard to get from one to another. This level also includes dead ends at the sides of the level. I don’t understand why someone like you who uploaded many levels, still makes these mistakes.
Eyecandy
Because the level is too spammed with trees, the eyecandy is also not that good. Though your backgrounds are quite nice. I also found a part in your level that looks like an Escher painting.(Go to wikipedia is you don’t get it.) There is a house which is definitively on the background because its overlapped by the road you are walking on. Still you are able to stand on the roof, ofcourse, this is IMPOSSIBLE!
Originality
Well, nothing original to find here, you even stole Bob’s Guns. Also this level lacks ammo, especially power-ups. It doesnt matter how much time you take to build your levels, when you keep ignoring reviews from those 5000 other downloads then you have a very slight chance your download is going to be really succesfull.
Gameplay: 4.5
Eyecandy: 5.5
Originality: 4
Final Grade: 4.7
Edit: You added some ammo +0.3.

It’s well known that the Holiday Hare 98 tileset has nice eyecandy but is terrible masked and is difficult to use. I see that you give it some try but there is missing some creativety and skill. If u work on it you really can make better levels.
I am currently working on a battle level and using this tileset to. (2nd time) It cost a lot of time to get the best out of this set and make a nice unique battle ;)
If u like i can send you some screenshots.
Things to mention:
- The spring on 13, 56 isn’t jazz friendly…
- The layers 5, 3, 2 are not used very well…
- Get more Ammo in the game
- The masking is bad (partly tnx to epic)
- Lot’s of more…
As tip I can give u to download some levels that used this set to (like mine old level ;) )for some example you might learn a lot of it :D
Succes!
This Is Very good !!!
nicely you did the levels this like (since I make a similar one of snowy levels)
but there are some mistakes in him disregarding very good Latvian (I know it about myself that with this the tileset to do a heavy level)
Levels: for me this level likes the best :) (1.j2l – Chrimbo for Lay-does the washing)
Music: all musics were good according to me suits the level
Tileset: than I said it already (according to me) very heavy with this the tileset to do an level
Rating:7,2 (because of some mistakes :s sorry)

EDIT:
Okay, I guess you were right. In some ways…
I fixed up most of those things you pointed out to me. =)
