I’ll review this level later, just got up.
On another note, if you look at the downloads, you see uploads by Cell about 5 times. Looks like you were cranking out levels in a hurry.
Still can’t d/l this…

Dear Mirrow,
The background in 8-bit sux but the tileset is nice. Ditto what everyone else said above.
Sincerely,
BlurredD
P.S. It’s easy to fix that 8-bit thing. Since you didn’t properly make the background colors with a palette editor (or whatever), it came up all messed up. Just download Palette Suite (which is available at my website) and fix up the palette so the BG.
It also mite be the fact that the BG colors were supposed to fade to black and yet they didn’t. This happens since the final colors in the BG color section aren’t used anywhere else in the tileset. Just make one of those one-tile palette things (as seen in Blade’s tilesets) and that should fix your problem. And I hope what I say here makes sense.
O wait, was the BG problem fixed already??
The Edit: I’m saddened by the way my old reviews were formatted. My opinion has somewhat changed since then. Basically, I think the tileset has a good variety of types of tiles and all, but I’m not too fond of the way all of the tiles look. Most of the tiles only consist of a few colors, so they look flat and a bit dull. And I hate the look of those sand tiles entirely; they’re too squared off and don’t really fit in at all. Also, the 8-bit background, after all this time, still needs to be fixed—or refixed since it apparently was fixed at one point. On the contrary, there are some possibly useful features in this set that almost make up for this, such as the invisible vine and a few of the animations. Overall, it’s a tileset that may take some getting used to, but it has a lot of useful tiles in it. It’s worth using at least once. 8.2 is my new rating.[This review has been edited by BlurredD]
Must… kill… Bjarni… Cool…
/me reaches for knife.
>:D
These are some nice levels that Blade made. There’s only one problem though: the Heaven’s Treasury level needs to be updated so that it can be more compatible with the updated version of the heaven tileset that Agama made.
Other than that, it’s a d/l recommendation from me :P
Nononono, he means this is the 1000th upload on J2O. Period. Not just by him. The trouble is, there are less then 1000 uploads, but this is still the 1000th. Several have been deleted, so while you can not download all 1000, a total of 1000 uploads had been made when he uploaded this.
I’m not going to either download or rate this. But, I’ll give you a hint what my rating would be if I downloaded it, then rated it.
Excellent work, CelL. Though I think, no matter what you say, you make levls too fast. On the day a tileset’s uploaded, you make a level with it. I take days. But then, your method is pretty slapdash.
The eyecandy isn’t amazing, as you can’t get all that much eyecandy with this tileset, but you certainly did what you could. One might almost think a little too much.
The tiles are used well, no bad connections that I noticed, and the design’s good. Could use a little work though.
Hehehehe, I was able to know that much about the level without even downloading it! Am I cool or what? :P
I forsee usage in October, 2002. Bwahahahaha.
Good things:
The artwork is excellent.
Most basic tiles are there.
In the style of Epic’s tilesets, even the basic tilesets have many variations.
Bad things:
There really isn’t anything other then basic tiles.
No ? block. Nobody ever uses them, but you should always include one anyway.
THE EYES ARE SUPPOSED TO BLINK! WE WANT ANIMATIONS!
The smiley face really destroys the atmosphere… can’t you get an evil looking one?
Craccoboy, Splash, this isn’t an old tileset. Try reading the description, it’s a Remake!
I agree with Splash, it’s too basic.
This isn’t really useful either. And uploading bad, old tilesets will only bring your average down, so I suggest you upload the tilesets you think that are the best.
The bg wall tile is not that bad, but the floor tiles totally don’t fit with it. There are nice vines.
The background is nice.
Most of the rest is ripped.
Sorry, I can not see why this was rated higher then 7. Sevens should be given when the tileset is pretty usable and nice.[This review has been edited by Fquist]
Sorry, I have been a bit harsh. While this tileset isn’t really usable, it’s still nice for a begin. But I am not going to rate it higher because it’s on of your first, we do not want to screw up the ratings here.
Continue making tilesets, and good luck![This review has been edited by Fquist]
Hehehe…CelL,

(looks at all ratings above and is surprised) -the tileset is way too basic. way too basic! It looks pretty nice (well…Disguise, you can do better these days!), and it only contains some basic tiles and a background. Can’t really say more about it. Tileset freaks may want to get this…
Stop uploading old tilesets Disguise, we want new ones ;)
a 6.5
This tileset has all the basic tiles, but not much eyecandy, the eyes at the background are cool, and the gravestones too. but I think its a bit boring…
You call this scary?!!!!!!!!! I don’t.:-P
Well, anyway…it is quite a good tileset for a first and the eyes are very cool. :-) The tileset has got all the basic tiles so, I’ll give it an 7.5 and a download recommendation.
Cheers,
White Rabbit.[This review has been edited by White Rabbit]
just a question; how many levels are you making a day?
and you still got the time to play jazz2
how long are the days there
on Crysilis?? :D
Yes, Tribal Temple CTF is quite good. It has got excellent gameplay and ammo placement but there are far too few of the ammo making it annoying and the eyecandy really SUCK. There are also too many carrots (3 carrots and an full health one) so this isn’t exactly the best CTF lvl Cell has created.
Now, lemme see…ehm…this lvl gets an fairly good 7.0 from me and an download recommendation.
Cheers,
White Rabbit.
Wooo i got the 1000th upload>=]
Bloody tilest,how cool :D Idea if very nice.Example level rockz too!Especialy these Big creepy eyes backgound ;D
Music thing fixed, although I’m SURE I put it in, I even checked twice. Hmmm, maybe I need some coffee, lack of sleep is getting to my head now. Anyways, enjoy! ;)
—-==Update==—-
It IS uploaded, I just downloaded to check, maybe you need some coffee too ;)[This review has been edited by Disguise]
I know this isnt the best tileset But I like it. It is a good tileset for a people that isnt a perfect tilesetmaker. I like this set so I rate a 9.0
Ah, what have we here? A remake of Disguise’s first tileset? Interesting.. Creepy.. Bloody.. Messy.. I like it;)! This tileset has a great evil look. The eyes in the background look very creepy, very origenal. This tileset has a number of uses, expect a level with it from me soon. I realy, REALY like this tileset. A big fat 8.0 from me.
