This is another Moonblaze tileset in…how long? I can’t remember. It has been ages. However, this tileset is really unique and was surely worth the work, so it must be worth some level creation and reviewing also.
Now the first question is, what kind of levels does this kind of theme fit in the best? I would say all, but especially Solo-Player and…tests? There is plenty of usability in this set, but there could be also much more. You are able to create your hyper-speed coaster tracks with this set, and make your ballistic bunny a real rocket. Then again, I expected the set had some kind of 360 degree loops for the coaster, like in Sonic, where this idea came from. Also, this set is basically only about ‘park’ and ‘coasters.’ I wish there would have been a few more thrilling rides included, that would of course have something to do with gameplay, not only eyecandy.
I have to say the tileset graphics fit quite perfectly to JJ2. Although it is cartoonish, it is cartoonish in a way that makes it feel like it’s a true Jazz-tileset. There are also lots of animated tile-series that can make your levels feel more ‘alive.’
It is pretty easy to learn the use of the basic tiles of the tileset, but it will surely take time to master it entirely. The way to reach the master-stage is experimenting, of course. Once you’ve mastered it up, you are able to go even more creative with the set than it would have been even realistic.
I’ve got to say this is definitely number 1 nominee for the Featured Download of the Month, so great job MB or sth. Now get your hands on this thing and start creating! Download and experience yourself!

I absolutely love this set…not only does it easily fit in and work with Jazz, it is unique, fully functional, and i just love it.
My next map is using this guarenteed.
Download this
Hmm… Tileset is nice, level is nice.
Not perfect, but good.
BTW, I got myself stuck in level, and had to jjfly/nowall out.
Download recommendation.

I mean, this tileset is GOOD and all. But it’s not anywhere near great. It’s a clever idea and a fun tileset, but honestly everything looks kinda dull and ugly. I mean, it’s not bad, don’t get me wrong. I reccomend it for download. But I’m not impressed at all by this.

Good tileset.

good
This tileset is a bit overrated. The quality is decent and all, but it uses too much dithering, and lacks versatility. Some of the colours are close to the rabbit pallette, like the pavement/stony ground and greenery, which could’ve been used for efficiency so you can sneak more colours in, allowing to make it even smoother.
Great tileset!Unique idea!
Also is very easy to use in lvl’s.I think u was inspired by the Roller Coaster Typhoon game ;D
Don’t stay down it now!!

Great tileset, I love it! You’ve also made a good example level that explains it!
I will use it in future
There are some tiny tiny small mask probs, the turtle shell feels too small and the baloons are tricky to get on (need a smaller mask)
Still really great!
Download? YES!
I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I I AM SOOOOOOO ADDICTED WITH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
