If this level was meant to have any purpose except fooling newbies, it doesn’t serve it. It’s made in a nice tutorial style, but if you’ve ever played like the 3 first levels of the original episodes with every character, the only new thing that you may find is Lori’s ability to go through things with her spinkick – the skill isn’t explained well enough though, and a newbie who didn’t ever hear about it has nearly no chance to perform it.
This is not everything though. The level has many other different “challenges”:- Uppercut block destruction – shows that Jazz can uppercut block, so damn special, at least not bugged like the other ones though.
- Sidekick/spinkick block destruction – fail. Supposed to be Spaz and Lori only, but Jazz can pass it with an uppercut.
- High jump test – supposed to be Spaz and Jazz only, but Lori can pass it very easily with no special skills – just running and jumping.
- Double jump test – total joke, supposed to be Spaz only but Lori and Jazz can pass it with no special skills.
- Sidekick block destruction – the pit is wide enough to not let Lori spinkick the blocks, but Jazz can just uppercut them.
- Copter test – joke again, Spaz can beat this level damn easily.
In other words, I don’t get how can you even call it a “character test”. The author managed to fail on almost everything that was possible to fail on. No one can learn anything good from this level, except maybe wallkick, warpkick and other Lori stuff, however imo just asking any advanced player is a better way to go.
Btw, the eyecandy (which I wouldn’t even mention if not seemingly high standards of this community member, judging from his reviews) sucks. It’s nothing different than the most basic Top Secret tiles and pipes in the background. The level makes use of two layers. Some of the most lame test makers out there are able to use this tileset in a more original and visually appealing way.
They often create better levels too, but that’s another thing.
