I enjoyed playing this test. It has some tricky levels, but not tricky enough to be annoying.

Beside the fact that Test is my least favorite kind of upload, there are some things making this level not very enjoyable.
First of all, it’s way too short and easy for a test. I completed the second two tests in less than 3 minutes. The first one, I had totally no clue how to complete. Did you test your test before uploading it? (pun intended)
The tests theirselves are ok, especially the one with the wind currents. You need to calculate your running and jumping carefully to make it through. And there are flags indicating the checkpoint, which is good too.
As for the eyecandy, there is a lot of blank space, and the only notable eyecandy used is some leaves on the foreground, a few trash bins here and there and a properly used background layer 6-7.
Another bad thing is that the fade color is darker than the textured background, making it unrealistic, AND you didn’t set jjUseLayer8Speeds to true, so the textured background shifts faster than the sprite layer, and that’s definitely unrealistic.
I don’t recommend the download of this, but it doesn’t mean you should stop trying. You have potential.
EDIT: About the first one, I tested it in SP and there were no platforms. That’s why I though it wasn’t properly tested.
