Very good lvl’s ;D
The best lvl in this pack i consider is Castel of Mysteries.
Mostly i like the eyecandy from this lvl’s.

…I have chosen to rewrite this review….
Intro
Master Sven’s battle level is okay. I did not think it was too terribly stellar, but this is understandably caused by the tileset.
Setting/quality
Winter Fallz is a wintery battle level, with a few waterfalls, some trees, snowmen, christmas lights and more. The level is admittedly small, but could be fun as a short 2-minute battle. I am happy to report the apparent absence of any huge bugs, plus the nice music. However, I do take a few issues…
The aforementioned issues
The trees I referenced are quite low-quality. The snow and ground lack any endearing beauty. The snowman is a nice breakup in the level. The level is, simply put, small. Instead of cramming tons of useless weapons into it, MS put a couple PU’s and some clusters of ammo in various places. The carrot is hidden in a warp, which sadly is really easy to camp on.
So to finish this up, I would say that WF is okay. Certainly not perfect, but not much on planet Earth is. No dl, I’m afraid, but it’s up to you, the reader.
Instead of a 2.0, MS’s orig rating, I will raise this to a 3.1, because most of the level’s flaws are not his fault.
Meh…4.1 sounds better. =)
this is very scary how make you it?
I give it an 10!
No, seriously, this level is fun and well built. 8+ and download recommendation.
The level is pretty much alright yeah. No masterpiece, but alright. Actually, the purpose for this review is to ‘normalize’ the overall rating for this level thanks to reviews involving secretive personal attacks, sorry admins lol..
[what ~cooba]
A fun DOM. The tileset is used in an interesting way to mimmick that of the S&K level Lava Reef, and the result looks pretty decent, however it feels a bit overdone or confusing it places. Gameplay is solid, nice CP placement and in general there is nothing really to complain about. This gets a solid 8, worth downloading and hosting a few times.
Not bad , not bad
whole withdrawing quite a few Erorr :S
(you could repair these)
otherwise not bad
ERORRS: those 2 trees piece not his intestine would be needed Bonus is there on place it to eat truth it would not be needed according to me
with ERORRS:3,2
without ERORRS:5,2
It’s called “Damntest” because that’s what you say after noticing someone released another TSF test.
Very fun level, but a little too gimmicky for my tastes.
heh
Chaotic ye ye this it ;)
but the rain falls upwards this a little bit strange
and on the bottom of the orbit the speeding bushes do not like but otherwise nice level ;)
I give you 8.2 for him

This is a very nice level. A little hard in parts, but very creative nonetheless.
IntroTITLED Deux is a CTF level, set on an action-packed space station with an agreeable song, well-placed eyecandy and more. The added fact of a version with and without pits only makes it look even better.
Setting/quality
As I explained before, it’s on a space station. It’s not 100% symmetrical, but does have a familiar rhythym to it. Some areas were brighter or darker than others, which added more fun value. I didn’t like how easy it is to memorize the routes, however clever they were. Which they were.
Buggyness/likeability
No real findable bugs that I ascertained, which is nice. I liked how the combination of springs, floatups, and freezing-device-thingamabobs was used to propel you from one part of the base to another. However, the seekers were a bit camper-friendly, which is sad.
Music and miscellaneous junk
The music fit well [razor-ub.it]. It had kind of a futury, spacey feel to it. Exactly the kind I had in mind.
This level runs smooth in TSF, and could work in 1.23 with + [although I haven’t tested yet, it doesn’t appear to have any TSF+-exclusive events]. Yay!
Straight talk to the reader
So, what more could I possibly say? Good work, and bring us some more later? Well I was kind of going to say that, but let’s lavish a bit of praise on the end…
In short, TD is a very well done level with a few minute flaws, but hardly enough to tear it down incredibly far. Dl this now.
In my opinion, the best tileset ever.
I just love the way you made the clouds and there is lots of eyecandy you can use, unbelivable.
The Jazz statues with the flame are just perfectly made.
You really deserve a 10!
[Review changed to quick review. – cooba]
very kewl usage of this tileset.
the layout is pretty massive and lollish, with a shield in the middle down for nubs who think they can take it.it’s simple but funny in some ways. in other words; This level is very BOOM BOOM MUSIC :S!.. and that’s my 1337 copyright! damn right son.
download reccomendation, and i will play this as a child :M
Sorry dude, im not going to rate this level.
It really is pretty bad, learn some mapping before wasting J2O’s bandwidth.
Good luck mapping, -Hammer
[This zip file is 6.55 kB big. Not even a 56k user would complain here I think? ~cooba]
It’s well known that the Holiday Hare 98 tileset has nice eyecandy but is terrible masked and is difficult to use. I see that you give it some try but there is missing some creativety and skill. If u work on it you really can make better levels.
I am currently working on a battle level and using this tileset to. (2nd time) It cost a lot of time to get the best out of this set and make a nice unique battle ;)
If u like i can send you some screenshots.
Things to mention:
- The spring on 13, 56 isn’t jazz friendly…
- The layers 5, 3, 2 are not used very well…
- Get more Ammo in the game
- The masking is bad (partly tnx to epic)
- Lot’s of more…
As tip I can give u to download some levels that used this set to (like mine old level ;) )for some example you might learn a lot of it :D
Succes!
All I can say is
“SHOOOOT THEN BOOOOOOM! Then you are a winner :)”
Amazing.
[Rating (10.0) clearance. – cooba]
FawFul: There’s nothing absurd about Stijn’s review. He’s entitled to have an opinion about your work, and to defend it. Just as you are entitled to disagree with his rating and his arguments. However, you’re overreacting. I don’t see how did you infer hostility from Stijn’s review – your comments about personal attacks and distrust are out of place here.
Master Sven: Please don’t jump into the gray area of public debate.
Certain people: Please do remember that downrating a review just because you disagree with the rating is wrong. Like Stijn said, read the review first, and think about what you’re doing. Grytolle, who took time to read through Stijn’s review (even if he still downvoted), is a good example.
I want this mess to cease, starting now. I don’t want to see this kind of situation to happen again, so please let us cooperate.
well these lvl’s are not very good keep working on JCS to improve.
Also i see an interesting thing on the QBA2 P2 lvl:
-it seems when a lvl is 15×500 the ground give the mirage that moves.A cool stuff;D
