This level isn’t very good. Well, for starters I HATE Dragonball Z. And the design is pretty bad. Not to mention, I hate the line of warps for the to pick from in Battle, and the exit is tricky to find.

Haha, now that’s funny! I can suprise people with something new and different by just pulling out an old level from my archives ;)
Haha, sorry, I suppose no-one ever saw this, but the thought is still funny!

Aiko, iCeD (iCeD mostly).
Perhaps the level isn’t so good. I wouldn’t disagree. BUT. There is NO reason at ALL to go bashing the levelmaker. Be nice, darnit! The things you said are completely uncalled for.

Give some positive feedback! Your ratings are fine but you need to be nicer about them! :P
(and I did find the stomp scenery, and the bird) (:

About your level KJAZZ (:
You seem to have good ideas, good concepts and ways to enhance the gameplay. You just need to work on the presentation. Eyecandy is very important. Work with the other layers, make it look niiiice (:.
Check out some high-rated levels, as iCeD said.
Vary tile placement, try stuff out. Experiment and spend a lot of time on your levels.
With practice comes perfect (to use the cliche) and I’m sure your levels could become very good (perhaps not perfect (;) with a little time.

Whoa, excellence.
(btw, I’m late on reviewing this I know, but Aiko told me to. :-)

An amazing single player episode with creativity, great design and eye candy, and cool music choices. Uses a variety and great tilesets and I must say I just love this. Btw, my only REAL complaint is the fact that all of the text strings were written in CAPS, very annoying.

Conclusion: a pack NO ONE should miss out on. GET NOW! :-)

I agree with Aiko. This is a copied idea from stripe’s original “Another Story” I can’t say much for this level, other than the fact that it is actually quite ugly. The layer 8 is bad and there is 0 eye candy. The music choice was OK (It comes with MODPlug Player/Tracker), and the whole thing was very confusing. KJAZZ, as Aiko said, SPEND MORE TIME ON YOUR LEVELS! Look at other highly rated levels and take examples from them. What a lengthy review.

Conclusion: NO D/l recommendation from me. Not even worth J2O diskspace.

iCeD out.

Whee, I remember this. :-)
Uses the simple tileset by FQuist. I must say I like the 3d effect here, made a good effort to use the tileset nicely. The weapon placement was balanced, not too much, not too little. The eye candy could have been improved, but you get away with that because of the simplicity of the set…

The music choice was ok, could have fit much better though.
Conclusion: check this out. Now. :-)

This pack has interesting tileset, and interesting level. The level shows what you can do with the set. I can’t do tileset like this one, it’s different. The "3D-look" was cool. The pack has everything what you need. But still there’s little thing what bothered me. .Not enough colors.

Hmmm, KJAZZ, no offense…but did you actually notice that you released A WHOLE LOT of levels that got a average rating far below the average. Maybe you should focus a bit more on quality instead of quantity (did i mention "spend more time on it"? :-).
Oh well, here is another one using Everlasting’s cool "Jazzed Realm" set. It is supposed to be a demo of a pack, and to be honest, i hate DEMOs of levels and packs. Better finish your thing even if it takes a long time. If we would all post Demos of our stuff, this site would be even more flooded with useless files.
Now, to the good sides: i like the idea that its story-based. Makes it a lot more interesting. But don’t over do it. The number of text events is limited.
And on a side note: this is very obviously inspired by "Another Story" (btw "Story" is a VERY boring name, KJAZZ).
Unfortunately i didnt managed to find the stomp scenery at the beginning without cheating (JCS :-). Confusing design. And very blocky.
Apart from that, there is hardly any eyecandy. Music is the example file of ModPlug Tracker; not exceptional but ok.

And, this review is too long. Poof.

This level is, uh… Wierd.

Well, I don’t like the design a ton, but it might be fun on the internet. I don’t rate these things on online, play really. :-)Anyway, I think there are too many small little platforms, you should make a decent amount of them, and different sizes. Not to mention, too many powerups,

also. Overall, 4.7, I give this.

Five year old? Thats me.

This is a good battle level, but

its TOO simple I’d say.

But nonetheless, a very nice level.

Heh, this level seems rather familiar to me, too. For some weird reason, i already had the Battle version in my TSF folder.
However, no matter how old it is, its still very good. Both, layout (including weapon selection) and eyecandy are very well made.
MEZ!‘s second tileset is pretty underused, but Newspaz really made a good map out of it.
Because i’m not the born CTF fanatic, i recommend you, the players, to use this as a Battle level as well. Its fun.
You should not miss "The Blue, White, Red and Green" (which is the actual, boring title of the level). Simply click on the link that says "DOWNLOAD!" :-)

P.S.:
Uh…no music! Very bad idea!!! And your excuses are too cheap, New. I actually hate levels without music so please put a bg tune next time :-)

Hehe, Disguise always surprises me with something new and different. I really like that :-)
The tileset he used for "Simple Battle" is…well…simple (only 54 tiles) but kinda effective. The level design is, like always, very open and very playable which makes it a fun battle. Not to mention the good weapon placement.
The level even has some nice eyecandy represented by those arty geometric shapes in the background.
The music choice is good, but to be honest, its not my favourite tune. Its melody is still to…you guessed it…simple.
Very lucky, low seven points because i find this kinda original! DOWNLOAD NOW and see yourself.

P.S.: Most 5-year-olds will like this, too, ehehe ;-)
