    These are 5 pretty nice battle levels by our old mate Whitey. Each level has good eyecandy. The level ‘Scraper city’ was probably my favorits, it has mostly everything for a good quality level. The other levels shouldnt be forgoten though. For every level, Whitey used some pretty sweet tracked music, Iggelkotarnas rike(kingdom of the hedgehoags) by Daniel Falk to name one. The music goes perfectly with the levels, and i recomend yu to play with music on. Some very high quality tileset where used, like ‘building site’ by Toxic bunny and ‘MeZmErIzE’ by Dethman, wich is one of my favorite tilesets. The design of each level has mostly nothing wrng with it, and i have been unable to find any major bugs yet. The gameplay is pretty good, the levels where mostly designed pretty fluent, making the gameplay circular, and easy to battle in. The ammo placement is also good, not much wrong with it. There where some nice ideas used, even though i have seen some of them before. The faling ammo in ‘The waterfall and the undergrounbd TNT in ‘Under destruction’. Like i said before, i have not yet been able to find any major flaws in eyecandy or such. I am also glad to see quality tilesets sed, JJ2 still sufers from a lack of this. To conclude my review, i must recomend this battle pack to every well-tuned battle fan out there. Please allow me to give you a pretty high 8.2 in advance, for what i have seen ‘till now is pretty neat and cool looking.
    EDIT: Don’t let mirrow fool you! His review may have been here first, but it wasnt there when i started writting:D[This review has been edited by >CelL<][This review has been edited by >CelL<]

    Happy Birthday!
    To the review…
    A pretty good pack featuring a good amount of levels (Good use of different tilesets too). They are kinda big, so this is especially fun to play with more than 4 people. However, I do have some complains:
    -levels are most of the time chaotic. Too much layers, stuff, walls and roads used in a small area. This makes it kinda hard to explore.
    -Don’t overdo eyecandy. Don’t place a million of the same censored next to each other. Don’t put a million STOP signs next to each other. Don’t overdo.

    so…layout/playability wasn’t that great. Weapon placement was good (maybe even excellent). Overall: a good pack. Everyone should download it, and not just ‘cos its your birthday ;)

    Happy birthday, White Rabbit :)

    Yeah, these are really cool levels, and like mirrow already said, your ideas are very original!
    I mostly like “Scraper City”.
    I wish I was such a good level builder… sigh

    Good work!

    At the first place, a Happy Birthday!

    Second, the pack. It’s a nice level pack;
    -The most levels are good eyecandy, only, like Splash said in his review, the many stuff you’ve added to it is sometimes annoying..
    -The gameplay is pretty good; the levels are not to small, so you have some space to move.
    -The music is good. You chose the right music for the right levels, only next time you should put the music files into the same WinZIP file as the levels and tilesets.
    -The weapon placement is not bad…but could be better.

    Well, i like this pack, and rate it with an 8.2! Good job.

    All ppl that already have downloaded this pack (what? you didnt do so yet?
    Immediately do so!) know that I’ve been one of the betatesters. It was really
    cool to see how more and more levels come, and how they became better and
    better…so all in one, a great pack!

    My favourite lvl is still “XMasEvening”, its…just cool! “The Waterfall”
    rules with instagib, “ScraperCity” rules with much ppl, and its fun to battle
    under water, in “Beachparty”.
    Though I like small levels, I think that the both small levels are not as
    good as the other levels. Hey, this shall not mean that they are bad, they are
    both at least good, if not very good lvls, but the other are just better.

    But, never mind this, once again: Great Battlepack. Download NOW!

    Btw, the readme rules :).

    Oh yes: Happy Birthday…but shouldnt you GET presents ;D?

    Well…oké,
    first of all i want to say “Hey Whitey”
    Oke that was step one: Greeting The Author…
    Now step two: Talking over blah blah blah…
    I did that already yust read evrything all over again!
    Now step three: Reviewing the pack…
    O.K. here it goes…
    Well let’s start with the first level,
    Beach Party, a cool level, but a bit small not So small but
    it could be bigger because if you really concentrated play the level
    you will learn the map of the level in a second its a really simple design.
    The Gameplay is ok, there are some crappy places, playing in water sometimes can
    have effeckt on the gameplay because places under water are already crappy
    swimming trough it will make it more difficult.The Eyecandy does not really Rockz but
    its yust simple GOOD eyecandy, much eyecandy will confuse it(like my levels), and that
    would be very very sucky…The weapon placement of it is i think OK. You couldnt maybe better not
    add RF’s in it, because it throws you evrywhere when you shoot against a
    masked tile…its sucky when you fall down in the water, but the level is small so
    you are up there in no-time. There is a place what i didnt like so much: The Place at
    the right-up corner, it has a bad design there…but i think you did that at purpise…
    didnt you!? Well…i think the level is Fine and good…
    Now the second level,
    Scraper City, a very awesome level, some places crappy but no-matter.
    Its a Big level and really high one. The Scrapers are a very Cool Idea…
    Also that is a very cool idea…
    There is also a MCE in the level i almost forget in the first level too the JazzJackRabbit2
    Sign between the two shelps, the MCE in Scraper City is a jazz what is screaming out the
    window ore something…i dont know. Well the Gameplay is Good i wont bug you about that crappy
    stuff…the springs are good placed. O yeah there is cool Ambient Sound on the top of the two scrapers!
    The Eyecandy is ok, again yust basic but fittable, like the [background]walls in Shops. Weapon Placement
    is Ok also maybe a bit more some places because some are hided behind forground Tiles…its sucky when you cant
    see them. Oke that was Scraper City, Its a Top-Tip level…
    Third level now,
    Disco Palace, uhm…its not really a palace but no-matter.
    Its a cool level but again SMALL!, there a few obstakels not very problem givers. Yust it isnt Confusing,
    but the level…there is something wrong with it, i dont know what! it confused me allot, somehow.
    I think [so called] obstakels are bugging me, the Moving ForGround Layers and the Background Layers are fine…
    but the standing ones bugged me…Ammo Placement is OK, maybe more PowerUps free without warping.
    The Ammo is good placed above Ground and Up of Vines and some other places placed good to.
    I Checked something really importans…the H-Poles, when there are two players you can get stuck if they both
    players go at the same time on the Pole, one player will get stuck in the ground…but Mister Whitey did good work
    here, he put a Warp under the Poles, so when you get stuck you get warped free…good thinking.
    The most Builders forget such important Thingis, but you didnt! Disco Palace is a good uhm… level? ore is it Palace?
    No-matter, I hope the Coming School-Disco on my School would be so cool like this Disco ;)…Good Work!
    4th Level,
    Under Destruction, well well well…AGAIN A SMALL LEVEL, this time it does MATTER!!! :P
    Its small, the smallynes makes the level crappy, lucky that there is used One-Way Places…,
    otherwise it was a full-obstakeld level. This Level is OK the TNT Thingi’s in the ground are cool.
    The Gameplay= Dont let me talk about the crappynes, sometimes it confuse me because the Eyecandy is anoying…
    (dont think i can make it better). The Weapon Placement is good also but why you dont use Seeker-PU in your level?,
    there is need for it!!! I think if you had replace that Pepper Spray-Pu into Seeker-Pu it would be allot better…
    O yeah dont use that TNT Stuff in Online Gaming Levels They are Anoying theye are bugging ya, sucking and they dont even
    give Damage…Anyway this level is Cool, Cool enaugh for a good rating, but it is very very simple level ;)
    You know the Map of the level in a second ore two, because it is SMALL!!! Good Job :P
    5th level now
    The Waterfall, oke now…im so angry, this level is again so SMALL!!!
    Pfff…Whitey, you never learn:P Ok, this is a cool level but little and crappy, some obstakels.
    No deadends ore other Stupid Stuff, not much to say about this level.
    Gameplay is fine…maybe more One-Way’s, Music is Awesome but not really for that level, because
    you cant battle so good in it, the music a bit action type and the level isnt.
    The eyecandy is Cool, that Waterfall Idea is Good and there is no other eyecandy, THERE IS but
    not so important ones if you know what i mean. The Weapon Placement…STRANGE Ammo Fells out of the air…???
    Ha Ha Ha Ha…lol, but it is still a good idea, yust when you are Up somewhere in the level, and you see the PU falling and you go down
    to get it…it isnt there, thats a Problem!!! Well oké, cool small little level…
    Now the sixth level,
    Xmas Evening, now finnaly my favourite level…
    This Level RockzZzZz, the Gameplay is Normal, no Problems with it, good and fine…No Problem Giving Obstakels yust little buggies…
    The Design on some places is very ugly…like the houses on the ground…on some houses you see black thingis on it…
    you didnt use there not so good the Tileset…it could be better.
    The Eyecandy is OK, yust basic background tiles on it…good, they are fine. Youve made the Background (layer8) Good…It fits the level.
    Weapon Placement is OK too, no problems with it…placed good and you finnaly used seekers and PU…yay!
    You used the Tileset Good, the H-Poles are good placed, Pinballs, Suckertubes, Springs are oke and the light is ok.
    There are some Deadends…but you can come out of them using the Suckertubes…What was too bad that you better could make a secret places
    where the DeadEnds are. O yeah dont think this level wasnt Small because it is, anyway its a GOOD small level, not so small like the others,
    this is one like Scraper City, not High but a good level. Well…the music is Standard so i cant say much about it.
    Well that was it, MY LONGEST REVIEW EVER!!!Your Pack Deservse it!Be Happy with it, be also with a 8.
    Well there is a football Match Between Barcelona VS Galatasaray 0-2…
    Yahoo…Hope Galatasaray will win! Go! Go! Go! Now Gotta Go! Smell Ya Later Whitey…

    O YEAH, A DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATION!!!

    A really cool battle pack, WR!!! I especially like the way you use MCE’s and SCE’s in some levels. And those InstaGib levels are cool to. WR hosted one of them and I was using my Omega project, it was really cool. JJ2 is finally starting to get fun again. I give this a 8.2 (which includes the fun my programs make).

    Cya.

    Cool Lvl Pack Whiterabbit !!!

    These lvls really rock. You got some original ideas for example the rabbit in the townhouse or the waterfall lvl.
    You also used very less used sets like “Building site” or “Townhouse”. Maybe the lvls could be a bit bigger .

    Download this !!!

    Btw. Happy Birthday ;)[This review has been edited by mirrow]

    Interesting. However, as someone said, those STOP signs in the Town level were rather annoying. I also didn’t like the Waterfall much at all, and I don’t go in much for water levels.
    Still, these are all mostly good levels. I’ll give you a 7.4, like SPLASH here, and remove .3 for the bad language in the readme.[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]
