    I don’t know what I have to see in this tileset. It has good graphics, is quite good drawed. But, you made too many colors, for every tile 10 colors.., well, I don’t get that. You could use the other 9 colored tiles into more tiles of the same color. You can make more then this. You can’t make a great level with this. The tileset structure isn’t balanced with it’s name. Adventure Island, I would expect more then just only some stone tiles, I would like to see more green, plants, trees, stuff, rocks.., not only stones.. That makes me feel a bit disapointed. And try to do more with the tile’s mask. Diagonal blocks would be nice. The theme of this map has to be in nature, with woods and stuff, there are woods as eyecandy. And 1 tree, thats it.
    The layers: I don’t see a textured background in this level. So, we have to deal with some colors to make a textured background, or just a fletshed color at the back. There are just a couple of trees as background, what is ending at one side. Maybe it is build up like that, but would be nice if there are at 2 sides an ending up. Not at one. Plus!, there could be more eyecandy layers for variation, but there aren’t. So, I can’t rate layer 6 and 5, but I’ll do 5 too, because people use it for the background. (But in this tileset it is almost impossible..), or for the layer 4 eyecandy, well. I have to tell you, I can’t make something nice with it. That could be a problem for people. Layer 4, ok, this is just a part what is normal, because I miss the diagonal blocks, and there are way too much layer 4 tiles.., so that isn’t very helpful. You can only use layer 3 for secret doorways, there is nothing to say about. And for layer 2 and 1 I miss stuff.., like rain or something. It would be nice, for people who like it. So, the tileset drawing is good, but I don’t get the point of the theme and layer structure. I would like to see an example level. But there isn’t one either. I wouldn’t recommend this. And I explained it all why I wouldn’t. But, keep going on with drawing, but make the theme clear.

    @Loon are you silly? It is conversion from NES… you are saying that NES graphics sucks? They are from 80’s

    This is 100% conversion so i don’t see reason why not give 10. It is really wonderful! Keep converting ^^
    EDIT: After deeper playing i noticed some less important bugs (…fire doesnt hurt / jazz is floating few pixels on grass…)
    EDIT2: If levels doesn’t load in jj2 or tileset doesn’t load in JCS, rename “AdventureIsland.j2t” to “Adventure Island.j2t”

    There will be a new version of this tileset maybe in this year or if not then 100% in the next year and I would like to thank for Loon who explained me to me that I have made mistakes and I will repair it as soon as possible until then you’ll need patience.
