Much as I hate the fact that EVERYONE uses the Diamondus Tileset, this is a good level. I haven’t been around to see much, but this one is good.
c’mon people this is carrotus!O well…It is very good anyway I don’t get annoyed with it like I do most carrotus levels.Nice level good eyecandy.And very circular witch is good for a battle level.I think you people over acted with the ratings here though.7.2 from me.
YaY! Finally a Treasure level!Ok time to get down to buisness.This set is very overused and the music makes me wanna barf.(I am soooooo tired of carrotus)Better be glad this was treasure or it would have a 5.7.
Gameplay:good
Tileset used:very very sucky and bad
Music:very very very sucky and bad
Eye candy:fairly good it could use some work though.
I have had lots of fun with this level.So just because of that and because it is treasure i give it:
DOWNLOAD THIS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just don’t think it is right to rate this.Afterall you didn’t make it.If I did though i would make it about a 8.7 It is really kuel.It seemed kinda a tiny bit different from jj1 though.And the filenames are ridiculous,long and hard to remember,(I also think it is annoying to put s3m every time to ;/ )
Brillant! The only downside is that it may be hard for newbies to use. But a incredible idea.[This review has been edited by Inf. Spaz]
(I was always under the impression Castle is hard for newbies to use. But oh well. Rating removal due to lack of explanation. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]

This set is the best mario set of them all!I just finished making a race level with it.However the masking was rather bad.Here is what I think of this set.
Masking:Bad
Tiles:Really cool
Eyecandy:excellent
Conclusion:Very kuel set with bad masking and a couple of bad tiles.This gets an 7.5 from me
Hmmm fairly basic but still its got all you need, and some very interesting tiles from other sources, the star and the wrench from worms.
But it needs a text sign and more realistic spikes:). I can’t really think of anything else but neat music.Oh and it needs just all around more.[This review has been edited by Inf. Spaz]
First I want to say, fine music choice!
At the end of the level there were some pretty cool MCE’s, but they didn’t have a very big function. The use of bridges was pretty unique as wel.
But the area is way to huge, and I don’t see people battling in this.
Anyway. I think a 4.2 is perfect for this one.
…aw crap. I was gonna do a Pinball Machine in my Tubelectric Trance level… How DARE you read my mind! XD
Nicely done. It would probably get repeatitive after a while, though… I’ll give this a 7.0. –
u said it was your first GOOD tileset in the “author’s description”.
i don’t say u cannot create town levels, but it’s boring in my opinion. is it your review or mine? learn to live with critical…
REALLY GOOD!!!!!
The only problem is, it dosent have a lot of versatility (you can’t make 2 tile high tunnels that look right). Also like they said, it lacks color.
A pretty good tileset. I sticks to one theme, looks ok, and is new. But i found a few smallish problems-
1.you can get stuck in the sand wall
2.the fireplace moves (a easy mistake)
3. what in the world is that red smokeish stuff from inferno doing here???
But it is nice. you get a 6.7
I disagree with Splash, the tileset has many ripped stuff in it, but if used right (like the example level for instance, of which the level TYPE doesnt matter at all, just how the tiles were used (that is a personal offence)) it can make some cool levels.
Bad part is the color / palette, which seems to be a bit messed up.
And of course the lack of different tiles.
I give this a 7.0
Hahaha A pinball game!
Never seen any of those at j2o, even though its pretty cool to play.
and Aiko, you are getting old :-)
Hmmmmmm how should one rate a pinball level… ehmz…. I think Aiko rated a tad low…
Ill give it a 7 for now, ill see what ill change if necessary.
Indeed, “Diamondus Fight” is not a bad level. But the dull level name already gives a taste of the fact that something…i don’t know…special is missing.
The level uses the overused Diamondus tileset (if you released this three years ago, it would have been a killer level > see Jeh’s stuff). Design is very good, very fluently playable and circular. Classic platform style, perfect for a decent battle session. There also is some layer work, not outstanding though. Of course, you can have a lot of fun with this level, but as i said, i think its missing the special touch. Dunno :)
Apart from all that, “Diamondus Fight” is still worth seven points and a serious DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATiON from me. Happy roasting![This review has been edited by Aiko]
And another level (this time its a pack of two) by Mr. Gargoyle/Krysis/whatever his new name may be :-)
“Carrotus Canyon” uses, um, the Carrottus tileset (bad idea) and has a lot of empty space, that could possibly be used by rabbits flying around on airboards. I don’t know, not really a killer design. Eyecandy is nearly non existant. Plus, it has a bad next level setting.
“The Floating Castle” (uses Castle tileset, d’uh! :-) has a pretty cool, circular design (very fluently playable!), a nice layer 8, but it suffers from a lack of eyecandy and the weapon placement is horrible.
The background music in both levels doesn’t fit in my opinion.
Well, my conclusion: if you like textured 3d backgrounds and a heavy weapon rush, go download. Thank you. Goodbye. 5.5 points.
Hehe, cool. I really like the idea behind this level. Reminds me of my favourite pinball games from the old days: Pinball Fantasies (yay!), Epic Pinball (featuring music by Robert Allen), Extreme PB, Psycho PB, Pro PB and so on…well, back to the review.
As we all know, Carrottus is very overused and therefore not my favourite tileset choice. Nevertheless, the author really tried his best here…to rebuild a pinball table with all kinds of targets, rewards, traps and the like. I only miss some LCD mini games ;-)
Seriously, i don’t have a lot of experience in rating pinball levels for Jazz Jackrabbit 2 but i guess the design is pretty good…it only could need some more eyecandy in my opinion. The default race background music fits okay.
Well, i really don’t know how to rate this. Lets say 6.5, okay?
In any case, it’s DEFiNiTELY WORTH THE DOWNLOAD because the idea is really, really ORiGiNAL. Clean your Shift keys, left and right! :-)
pretty good level, but still some improvements could have been made.
the level layout is quite ok, but has some empty spots in them, as well as some places with too many things in them such as trees and flowers.
weapon placement is in my opinion horrible,not much, and all placed in strange places and numbers(2×2)
overall: check this out, but do not expect uberkewliness, just a fine battle level with hours of fun guaranteed.
to make a long story short:
the set isnt as great as the author claims it is, actually i think its dull and has mostly junk in it, like pictures and stuff. the real tiles are very basic, and we have already seen a lot of those tilesets.
the level isnt that great either, another one of those games levels, which i think is quite boring..we came to jazz to play single player, race, ctf, treasure hunt and of course battle. want to play games? go visit your local games store and get yerself a game of monopoly.
very standard, and not as big as the author claims. what can i say? wash the ego..
Oh, great: another spiffy gar*** level by our favourite level make Gargoyle, one of the most active authors on J2O! :-)
No, really, i actually like this pack. It contains two unbelievably small tilesets (each one having only 20 tiles, actually only 10 and actually its only one tileset in different colours so that i really wonder why the author didn’t make one tileset from it). Well, apart from the not-so-exciting tilesets (i have to admit that they look kinda cool, though) there is a nice, small Capture the flag level included.
It has a very interesting look, a very cool design, okay weapon and base placement and my overall impression is pro Gargoyle this time :-)
The music choice is not really perfect, i always prefer some fresh custom music for custom tilesets.
But well…to sum it up, i find this whole thing quite original and funny and therefore i give out a DOWNLOAD RECOMMENDATiON and impossible 6.5 points. That’s about it :-)
