WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THIS?!
The lvl is unfinished and is also in a TOTAL mess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ehm…this lvl is certainly over rated (except from Aiko of course).
Well, no offense, but this is an really bad lvl. It’s got almost no ammo at all and the gameplay isn’t exactly brilliant either. Also, there are food. YUMMY in singleplayer but EURGH! in multiplayer. ;-P
The lvl lacks eyecandy too. There aren’t much animations around (except from the flying leafes) and the lvl looks very…simple and…naked (kind of). And of course (Aiko already said this) the spikes are both weird and annoying.
I can’t recommend A Diamond Forever!! to anyone really. But still, good try Spotty. I’ll give this an 5.
Cheers,

Whew! Even though it uses “Diamondus” (overused and so on), i really like “Gemstone Warfare” a lot!
The layout is as platform based as possible and the navigation is really easy, which will, in combination with the relatively small size (about 85*80 tiles), definitely result in some exciting battle fan. The weapon and powerup placement completely fits my needs (the author only used my favourite type of ammo!) and there aren’t a lot of annoying events.
Another aspect worth mentioning here is the eyecandy: it may look a bit confusing at first (reminds me of the second level in Nemesis’ great old battle pack, if anyone remembers) but you will get used to it quickly and without any doubt we can call it original.
Adding up all the mentioned facts, i can really give a strong DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATiON for “Gemstone Warfare”. With it’s simple but effective layout and it’s orignal eyecandy it offers the perfect ground for a great battle. Seems like Diamondus isn’t dead yet (very high seven points! :-)
“Chemicals Labroratorys” (i wonder if that’s grammatically correct…well, english sucks :-) is a nice little (standard size: 100*50 tiles) battle level using the good old Labrat tileset.
It has an acceptable layout that is obviously supposed to be round and easily playable (which it isn’t because of reasons i’ll mention later).
The weapon selection is very good. As for the event placement, i didn’t find it exceptionally good: the gems and food are pretty useless in a battle and the destruction events (which are quite annoying sometimes, esspecially regarding navigation) are just not my favourite idea in such a level (no real big problems, though).
Regarding the layer work, i have to mention this real nice(!) “JAZZ” arrangement in one of the background layers. Otherwise, nothing special about it.
Well, all in all, even if it may sound harsh, i don’t see this level too far away from the average. It is just missing something in my opinion. In addition to that, i find it horribly overrated here, which also influences my rating of “only” (high) 6.5 points. Still worth a download, if you like the tileset, the “Made in Holland” sign or if you just feel like.
I don’t know what to say, a few ripped tiles and cheap graphics software effects don’t make a tileset.
This program is good for making cool texts, but it could annoy people who dont like cool stuff, I’ll use it to a minimum hehe…..good job
strange it doesn’t work…
Good tilesets dont come often but they do with certain people :). Another excelletn one..
good music, good tilesets, good levels, I only found 2 errors i got stuck a little, but it was pretty good and somewhat challenging
This tileset is a very large one which
contributes to the rating because
all of the things on the tileset are very good and allow you to make superb
levels the stuff I’m seeing from Agama is near official to me.
Using this tileset could produce a good level that wouldn’t be hard to make.
This tileset allows you to use good layers and excellent designs. Overall this tileset is good and hi is bad :P[This review has been edited by Spotty]
I couldn’t find the tileset I think …for this one, it isn’t in the zip file im presuming.
It has great visuals,and it was well designed, but it’s a bit small, and instead of racing ur going back and forth for coins.
pretty good. i can dodge the fireballs splash. you just mostly just stomp while the fireball is right at you ;)
preity good. i realy like the music. its preity hard though short.
What Flawless said… WHY ARE YOU ALL RATING THE MUSIC AND EXAMPLE LEVEL?!? THEY ARE NOT TO BE RATED. THIS IS A TILESET UPLOAD.
Other various complaints:
Sand: I’ll try to fix up the sand.. maybe even add a few ramps. Not sure if I’ll be able to though.
Ramp blocks: Bah, I forgot to make them look good, didn’t I. Right, I’ll work on some better looking ramp thingies..
Flame: Bah. I put a little work into making the flames look unusual, and people don’t like it. I guess I’ll have to put it back to the original then…..
Cave background: I will try to improve it, but it may just look worse.
Signs: Maybe the kind of disheveled looking signs are unclear, especially the Lori one (I have no idea why it turned out that way), but the natural ones are easy enough to view.
Ice Block: They’re the standard toaster destruct scenery.. just thought I’d let you know. Just look at Inferno, for example.
Lava: Bah. I think it looks just lavalike.
Flags: Anyone who’s flag isn’t there, just send me an image of it, and I shall add it in flag and balloon versions. :P
Wow no ones given lower then 9 on this tileset…..amazing……..
I see, the spikes were somewhat useless but seemed to work along time ago in the cave, when I first made it, thanx for your input ill use it for my future levs :)
The tileset isn’t bad…I like the ladder but its very hard to go up it.
Very nice tileset. At last the ability to put a canadian flag in a level :P.
It has great artwork, and its a tileset I would consider using.
