Dethman is the modest type he made the tileset. There is no questioning that. In tilesets Deth also has more experience.

Also, we don’t need personal attacks here.

Nimrod: Your name says all. I spent over TWO WEEKS on that level, day in, and day out…

Aiko: answer me this: Why do some of the tiles make bad remarks about dethman? I think that jeh made it because there’s a positive comment in there. Now, Dethman may have made the level 7th Lava Fall, but there is no proof that dethman made it. Jeh could’ve made it because he has a LOT more expierence with tilesets. no offence deth And by the way, I’m thinking about re-releasing this level with a little better choice of music. wanders off to modarchive.com

Iced: Winamp rules. ModPlug don’t. Winamp has AVS. ModPlug doesn’t. Winamp is skinable. ModPlug isn’t.

I copied and pasted the following text from my original review of the first release of "Aztec":

"I dunno what to say: i just love Blades uploads! Everything looks and sounds so cool. This is another superb tileset that includes a short demo level and beautiful background music. You’re an elite tileset/level jazzer, Blade! Everyone download this! Its an order! :-)))"

I didnt change my opinion on it, it even gets better. The design of the example battle level is great and the music choice is pretty cool (but not as good as in your other packs, in my opinion…a bit too techno-beat-like).
"Aztec v3" by Blade (member of //*tha famous iSDN Army*\\, yay for us!!!) is a MUST DOWNLOAD (again :-)!

The Aztec tileset keeps getting better. :-)

I like this tileset, it has a nice look, and a cool example level. I should personally note that you shouldn’t password the example level, it makes it hard for newcomers to get the hang of the set without actually opening the level in JCS.

I would say if you’re a custom set fan you should d/l this now. :-)

Nice. :-) “Bananna Beach Demo” contains a good difficulty level, nice ideas and puzzles, and just the right length.

A few problems were visible, one being the fact that it got tedious on “the hard way” But other than that, I recommend you check this out. :-)

First of all, i really appriciate that authors use superb custom tilesets like DethMan’s 7th Lava Fall (btw this is the first major bug: in the readme you thank Jeh for the tileset…).
And the set isn’t used that bad at all: the eyecandy is quite okay in my opinion. Well, there are still some masking/tile errors though. And the foreground layer with the "falling lava" will get very annoying after some minutes!
Now, the bad side: The design of the "Pyramid of Steel Fury" is (slightly below) the average. There are lots of things that i dislike:
Sandglasses (very annoying event i think), Airboards (pretty useless in this level), Hurt events (they will only hurt the server, believe me!) are some examples i found.
The pack also includes a custom music file: i’m not sure if it fits to the atmosphere of DethMan’s "dark, industrial" tileset but it still sounds…um…pretty funny. I’ve heard MODs that were worse.
To sum it up, this is a nice level, mainly because the author tried to use a great tileset and custom music. The design (actually design is the most important part in a level :-) itself is not that good.
I think J2O’s readers could take a look at it. I was very undecided about the rating (5 or 6?). Hey, it’s saturday…very very low six points for you :-)

Good one!

We have a pretty below average level here. Design, eye candy and event placement could have been significantly improved… Also contains no new ideas. Semi-good music choice. I feel like decreasing the rating for your comment about ModPlug in the readme. ;-)

Overall I can’t give a download reccomendation for this. Sorry. :-)

Good Job

This level is soo close to BloodBunny’s level it’s uncanny!

There’s a mask’d tile in the lower bottom left corner that
need’s to be taken out. The lava shouldent be so high or
at least be transparent. Ok author creative licence but a
Coin warp next to flag base? Maybe needs more work.

Ok i guess this level is good but it’s no BloodBunny’s Lair. :)
(Unreal music has always been easy to convert to jazz2)
