Tottaly ausume dude!
The only reason im adding 2 points…
Is becuase this is your first time…
A couple of high quality tilesets. Not more to say actuely. Oh and a note to Whitey, Prison sewer is NOT beter then medivo.. The drawings of it are much beter:P[This review has been edited by >CelL<]
YAY! I’m the first one reviewing this tileset pack! And WHAT a tileset pack! ;-D I have a feeling that this is gonna be a long reivew…
Alien Homeland
This is a nice tileset, not the best of the pack but still nice. It’s got neat animated warps/teleporters/whatever and there’s also inside and outside tiles, the outside tiles are as Disguise said pink (LOL) and they got those white stuff on them that looks like snow. (Weird!) Disguise has also added arrows, vines, poles, funny looking suckertubes and strange pink..ehr…nets…(are you sure this is what an alien world looks like Disguise?) The inside tiles has got much more better looking tiles. There’s those round windows and nice platforms and not to forget mention that the windows come in two sizes. ;-P The background stuff is also good, some tiles can be used on the foreground layers as well. One good example is those green rounded houses. And to those who likes to make space lvls with loads of moving/still stars there’s always those kinda box shaped stars (There’s definetely something wrong with Disguise!) In short Alien Homeland is a very good tileset (although VERY weird) and you could probably make quite interesting lvls out of this tileset.
Green Matrix
AAAAARGH! My eyes has gone blind! This tileset is the WORST in the tileset pack undoubtly! The platforms really sux and the destruct blox are plain and boring. Blah! Only good stuff are those animated numbers but then it’s the numbers that causes ppls eyes to go blind. Well? Is there anything more to add? Oh yes! There is; this is not a good tileset.
Modern City
Wow! This tileset rocks! (Not more than the pyramids though ;) The tileset’s got many good looking tiles and they’re very eyefriendly unlike Green Matrix. Although it’s not as good as Town House 1/2 I can see that Disguise has tried to copy some of those tilesets ideas. There’s those skyscrapers (or rather groundscrapers cause they’re so low ;) and roofs with neat chimneys. The roads are the best part though, they look just like motorways and they can go up and down and vice versa (obviously) which could prove essential to SP lvls. To make the roads more interesting, Disguise has added some bridge stuff which makes way for collapsing bridges and other stuff. I really like them, they’re cool. :-) And no tileset is a proper tileset without destruct bloc of course, although they’re plain and simple just as those in Green Matrix, they don’t hurt the eyes which is one good thing. Oh! I almost forgot the fluffy white clouds! You can use them in the sprite layer too and they make really good platforms. Man this tileset is “cute”! ;-D Modern City is one of the best tilesets in the pack and maybe…just maybe I’ll make a lvl out of this, but for now, I’m gonna trust other ppl to do it.
Prison Sewer
Now…now…this tileset is fabulous! It’s even better than Medivo! ;) The tileset sure looks like a prison sewer with slimy stuff, water stuff, chains and weird looking cages (or is it cages?). There’s also the usual vine, poles and this time there’s spiky stuff on the ground and hooks too. Disguise has also added neatly drawn posters with words like “I hate my lawyer!” and “FREEDOM!” Prison Sewer is just…just…just very good. :)
Rocky Greenland
Here it is ladies and gentlemen! The star of the tileset pack: Rocky Greenland!! clap clap clap This tileset reminds me of one of Blade’s tilesets and it’s absolutely fabulous! The eyecandy is great with flowers, rain, distant green mountains, clouds and rocks. The tileset is the biggest in the pack and no, it’s not half filled with junk, every single tile is has got a use. You can make rocky and sterile caves, beautiful grassy landscapes or why not both? There’s also bridges made out of an interesting coloured wood and similar looking fences and arrows too. Oh, and not to forget the vines which looks rather like extremely strong grass, the poles and the water stuff. And there’s more! Disguise has drawn funny stone faces which you can use as neat decorations. Aah, let’s just hope that somebody…somewhere…makes an excellent lvl out of this excellent tileset (HEY! Don’t look at me!) or else it would be a great shame cause Rocky Greenland definitely deserves it.
Well, what did I tell ya? It was a long review! Heheh. :-) Now, you know what? I’m gonna give this tileset pack an incredible…9.5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I, White Rabbit, a nobody, hereby commands you to download this pack NOW!
LOL! Cell, you forgot to rate the lvl! :-P
Oh well, nm. Let’s get on to the review:
Wild Inferno is pretty good for a first ever lvl and it’s got pretty good (however it’s sparse) weapons placement. The gameplay is also good and I couldn’t find annoying/useless obstacles and dead ends. The seeker powerup isn’t very well hidden though and you can get it with electroblasters, try to protect it more. ;) Oh, and let’s don’t forget the funny texts! :-D (Examples: Holy chickens!, Smells gooooood, OOh! AAh! and of course D*mn it’s hot! ;)
Although the lvl’s got many good stuff, it could be improved much more by taking the food away and removing those annyoing hurt events. This lvl is above agerage which means it’s got an 7.2 and an download recommendation from me.
Cheers,
White Rabbit.
Phew, you’re lucky I checked the downloads section today. I’m not gonna ahve internet for quite a while (thanks to school vacation). Oh well, enjoy the download, and look out for my next upload in about a wekk and a half.
It’s already finished, but I figured I should wait . Besides, I’ve never done anything like it before in my entire life :)
Hehe, i got this from the old Jazz2city:-D. A very good singleplayer pack, using some very nice tilesets and outstanding music files.
Very nice. Only the textured background goes around awfully fast(it hurts the eyes:-P).
Very nice level, even considering its one of your first ones. Anyways, here are a few tips:
Dont include food.
Dont include hurts; They hurt only the server, not the clients.
Make the level a “teensy” bit smaller next time.
Besides that, very nice level. Download this now. You wont regret it.

……Dont.[This review has been edited by >CelL<]
Looks good. well done.
Funny messages, and some foods :)
ADD: Now the next step you can to is make your own tilesets and take control over the Jazz2 palette :D[This review has been edited by Cesar]
Oh, very nice conversion.
Colors are messy on some events like pinball. (Wishes skies…)
Good but people could get stuck in the sewer part.
One of your first levels? I’m impressed. There are several text events which try to be funny (including “Holy Chickens” +1) and stuffness.
There’s also ok weapon placement, and good use of powerups.
Unfortuntately, there’s no Jazz start, and there are lots of hurt events.
Above average by two points it is.
(Unapproved rating removal edit. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]
sweet. 7th lava fall is my fav tileset.
The tileset was great, but the download type sais “battle”, and because of that I will only rate the level.
I don’t think it is too great really, and that is why I gave it a 5. Anything below 5 I consider bad, and anything above it I consider above average. So basicly, this level is average.
I may have given it a 6, but I really really hate how you have to go up with those airboards to get to the level. What is the point of that? The weapon placement in this level is OK, but it could be better. Same goes with the eyecandy.
I can’t say much more about this level. I don’t like the layout much at all, so you can’t get any higher than a 5 from me.
EDIT:
Ok, I have changed my rating to take the tileset into consideration. I am too lazy to edit my review itself though, so blah. The score has been changed from 5 to 6.5. I give the tileset a 7.5 and the level a 5. 6.5 is the average rounded up because I am such a nice person.[This review has been edited by EvilMike]
I like these conversions, and I may even use one if I feel like it. I will not give this a higher score however, because I notice a few problems in the tilesets.
The main problem is the masking. While it is good in the majority of them, some of them have what I call “bumpy walls”. What I mean by that is the masking on the walls is not completly flat. This can hinder the flow of a level because people don’t really like being able to cling to walls when they are trying to fall, and in extreme cases the player may even get stuck. It is usually best to make the masks of your levels as simple as possible by avoiding bumps and whatnot and trying to make every tile have smothe edges.
Another less noticable flaw is that the animated tiles do not quite match up perfectly, but it is hard to make them good, so I will not hold that aganst you too much. I also found that that two or three of the tilesets are a bit lacking in that they are missing a few tiles or don’t have destruct scenery.
Overall though, this tileset pack has some quality jazz1 conversions and it has earned a 7.5 out of 10 from me. I reccomend that you download this.
Very good lvl and an OK tileset and well chosen music. (It rocks, but not more than the pyramids though ;) There isn’t really anything wrong with the tileset, only the lvl. I’ve discovered some bugs ya might wanna fix Cell: the lowest engine of the spacecraft has a gap where ppl can get stuck at. That’s all. Good weapons placement and blablablah and so on :) It’s an 7.7!
Cheers,
White Rabbit.
REPLY TO EVILMIKE: Oops! Sry, I must’ve done a mistake in the uploading. ;-P It’s supposed to be “Mutiple”, not “Battle” so plz review the tileset too Evilmike. (Or else Cell is definetely gonna do something to me…argh!)[This review has been edited by White Rabbit]
Well, well…now what is this? More tileset conversions by Cell? They’re very good actually but since I dunno what the original tilesets look like, I can’t compare, sry. All I’m gonna say is: Good work Cell, you’ve earnt this 8. :-)
Cheers,
White Rabbit.
As Violet had stated the Mask was bad. Plus the text signs were a bit sloopy and so was the ground and all. Tests were too easy! (But no points will be taken off for that). It was fun and it’s a classic (it’s how I got into CC).
