“New Age” by Spy includes three nice battle levels.
The design in all of these is good, a little hard to navigate, but good. I really like the jungle one..
Eye candy is great. The tilesets were used well. You really don’t need much more to perfect the use of the tileset.
Music choice is good, it does not have a big part in the review, though.
Overall, if you’re a battle fan, you should get this now. :-)
Actually there IS a batle level and a CTF level. Look for “LW, the battle 2” and “LW, the fall” on this site.
And a huge singleplayer episode is coming up.
I really like this tileset. There is so much things to use when making a level. Dinosaurs, palms, and other stuff. Only thing that misses is a single player/battle/CTF level. I must do at least one level with this tileset!
Ninja Dodo, you used background layers really nicely. I love the water falls and dinosaurs and other stuff there!
But level is a little bit too large. Weapon placement is strange, somewhere is too much, somewhere there is no weapons at all. I think that water is bad idea in battle level…
Uh…aiko.. just because he posted levels before, doesn’t automatically mean that this isn’t his first level.
For example: I never posted a LEVEL here, but have made some before. I could make one which is worth 1.0 points right now and upload it to J2O. Does that mean it’s my first level? No.
Uh..aiko..for exactly that reason(“high six points”), we have the 5.7 rating..
Obviously, the author of "Diamondus Roastzone" (btw not an original name) really tried to put some eyecandy here.
Unfortunately the resulting level isn’t very playable: there are many small islands in both the normal layer and some background layers which makes it hard to hop around without getting confused.
The design is average (level is a bit too small for example) and i don’t like the music choice at all.
Close to six points because of the nice eyecandy.
Oh and a remark about "first levels". You already posted levels here. Please don’t take this as an offense, but you can’t choose which one is your "first level". A first level is a first level (esspecially if you posted it in public, namely J2O). No escape from that fact :-)
Sorry but I kinda like this ;) I love the fact that you HAVE TO look where you walk.. It could be really funny,
Next time make it a lot bigger and a little less foreground stuff ;) !
Well done for a first level.
Not very good design, and the forground and background make it confusing.
I would not suggest this level a whole lot, but at least there is no tilecutting, right? :-)
Pretty average battle level. Tis a bit too small and is STILL confusing.#&*#&# ;-P
Good use of trigger zones. Pretty basic, etc.
Can’t give a d/l reccomendation for this. Sorry. :-)
And yes, you did spell my name right. ;-)
No, I did mention that the Warp d00ds may leave the tunnels whenever they want and go theal the non-Warp d00ds’ ammo at the research center. I just added those two areas to help you defend the oncoming attacks better and easier (if you like it that way). Hey, It is the warp d00d’s place so i see no reason why they are not allowed to go everywhere. Just capturing the ble flag will remove the whole concept of assault.
Someday i’ll rate this “Assault” thingy. Be prepared :-)
I Agree with Iced with the rating, I like the lvl but i didnt got how the Warp Doods work, are they supposed to only use the defence tubes and only use Electro-Blasters?
Overall nice level, but if it really works….. nobody knows
"Carrotus Squash" is another attempt by martin to make the perfect level. And really: you won’t find any bugs in this battle level. martin actually is a level scientist. He spends hours and hours hunting for the smallest design or tile bugs.
The design is awesome and makes it very playable. Eyecandy and weapon placement are very good, too.
Unfortunately, this level has nothing that usually gives me a reason to rate it 9 (which is, as you may know, my highest rating so far) like great selfmade custom tilesets, a large amount of levels in a pack or, very important, exceptional creativity! Oh and by the way, and i still like 5 Alive best. Town definitely beats Carrotus :-)
Nevertheless i respect martin as one of the most dedicated levelmakers ever. He shows what is possible with Epic tilesets.
And of course, i recommend to DOWNLOAD "Carrotus Squash" immediately.
hehe, ok Aiko, if you wanna figure out what it is I suggest you start at Syntax (first person to make an assault level) or Unreal Tournament.
btw I forgot to add this little part in the “Author’s Description” area above. The level is quite big, as a matter of fact it’s 400×100 in size. The only layer it doesn’t use is layer 1 (layer 5 hasn’t got too much though) and for those that might want to play it in low detail there is quite a lot of eye candy in layer 3. Another thing is that it uses a 206kb tileset, which is not the smallest you can get. Make sure EVERYONE that plays this has the tileset (if ur gonna pre-arrange). With my puny 33,6 to 28,8 (depends on how nice my ISP is at the moment) I tested the tileset out on the net a long time ago and every now and then my Jazz froze up cuz of too many ppl dling the set. It’s quite a pain ya know. I suggest you get a nice PC before playing this (Sorry Shadow ;)
I will rate this (and edit my review) someday. At the moment, im too lazy to figure out what Assault was.
Whee, I get to be the first to use the new ratings. :-P
Anyway, this assault level is cool, very good layout and use of the set. (which is obvious considerng you made the set. ;-)
There were some problems: weapons get a bit excessive near the red base. A few other problems that I was too lazy to look for.
Average music choice, something else could’ve fit better.
Overall if you like assault you should DEFINITELY download this. :-)
So should I go badger Cheeze? =P
Cheeze should fix it. It’s his code and he is the only one that knows his code. :P
By ShadowGpW:
lemmy speak now..
these are the jobs at Mystic legends and this is what people do there
Jeh is LEVEL BUILDER (never made a tileset)
DethMan is TILESET- and LEVELBUILDER
Martin is LEVELBUILDER
Shadow is LEVELBUILDER
Conclusion: jeh coulded make the Tileset mabby the levels But not the set..
~nuff said
My apoligies,I have fixed the Text so that it appetises all parties (iced, I censored the thing with ModPlug. :) and changed the level layout a bit.
Now if I can re-upload it…This is the problem. It doesn’t re-upload, but gives me a “fatal error” :( DIZZY! DO SOMETHING!
