First of all, id like to thank everyone who downloaded this pack and are

Main Story of Part 1: The enemies have travelled in from the deep dark
area's of sordon and invaded the castle. You are awarded the duty of saving
the castle (wether you like it or not, you have to). You first travel
through the dangerous forests surrounding the castle (lvl 1 and 2) which
have been rumored to be a crash site
for some alien species (Bonus level). Once you get through the forest, you
must cross the battle field of the castle, where there was a great war
against who would gain control of the castle (sadly, the enemy won). Then
you grt in the front gate of the castle.
Additional comments:
level 1: Sorry If I overused the pickups, but you'll need them in the
further levels.
Level 2: This level can get annoyingly hard in some parts, take your time.
I reccomend you find the bonus level because the end part of this level is
d*mn hard.
Level 2 bonus: The puzzles may get hard here, the roads split off in
different ways. There are many powerups and stuff here, which you will only
find if you take the correct way.
Level 3: A straight forward level, you should kill the demon near the H
pole near the end of the level or you may get stuck. Use the TNT wisely.
Level 4: Secrets and traps abound, keep your eyes peeled. It gets hard near
the end inside the kings gate, so you might want to play in easy mode since
there is a large difference beetween easy and medium.
Also credits to JJ1 for the crysilis music in the cutscene (yay cutscenes)
Some Answers to questions you might have about this pack
Q: Why are there so many pickups in the first level? Its so easy because
there are pick ups everywhere!
A: You will need the pick ups in later levels which get more challenging.
Q. Where do you get to the bonus level?
A: In level 2, Demon Forest. After exiting Territory 11 just swing to the
left a bit to avoid the sucker. Both jazz and spaz (and lori, for any TSF
players) can reach the bonus level with ease.
Q. Argh, the leaves in the second level block everything! Its hard to see.
Why did you put those leaves there?
A. Thats what makes the level more challenging. Just look closely, and
you'll have no problem. All you have to do is be aware at all times. Or if
they really tick you off just turn on low detail (and face the uglyness of
the level in low detail).
Q. The puzzles in the halls and galleries near the end of the 4th level are
hard, how do you do them?
A. If you're having difficulty play the level in easy mode. Then there will
be text signs helping you along the way giving hints as to what to do.
Q. Why is this some lord of the rings rip off?
A. I like lord of the rings. Plus this never was meant to imitate lotr, its
just that most of the good idea's are already taken.
Q. Why is the map of the episode a bmp file?
A. Because I am too lazy and cheap to get anything better. Be happy that at
least the quality of it isnt the worst it can be.
Q. How come this is only part 1? Why couldn't you put all the parts
together?
A. Firstly, the size of this would be too big. Secondly, that would take a
long while since there are so many levels to go. Thirdly, the text file
would be much larger and you would be stuck here reading these pointless
words that I am typing right now for hours.
Q. When will part 2 come out?
A. I dont know. Somewhere in 2004 if I keep being lazy.
Q. Why was the 4th level finished in December when the 3rd one was done in
February?
A. Too many other JCS projects and levels. Plus lazyness and summer
holidays. And loss of inspiration.
Q. Why are you a stup jelly doughnut noobshop who drinks coffee with salt?
A. Because thats the way of the future.
Q. When will these Q's and A's stop?
A. When I find something better to waste my time on.
Q. Why couldn't I beta test this?
A. *runs away*

Further more, I think Gingerbread is not superior than cornbread, no
matter what bobbu tries to hypnotize us into beleiving. Plus squirrels are
the dominant species. They are really plotting the downfall of our puny
human race. And Dinosaurs do exist! They live under people's beds now
because they can't afford a decent
apartment or house. Also, I am getting a bit sleepbaked right now so please
excuse me when I do this:
