Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

Eyecandy – Bad
Although it’s original, the eyecandy here is extremely poor looking. There are only two background layers – layer eight and layer seven. Layer seven is a layer of mountains that is too low and has no unique relative movement to speak of, thus looking very unrealistic. Layer eight is a red textured background. It’d be nice if it had stars, but it’s okay. Layer four includes some fences and black cave areas with stars. The tileset is misused. When you are using blocks, for best results, you should use all the different sized blocks, put together kind of like a puzzle. The results are quite sexy looking. =D
Gameplay – Okay
At the bottom, the gameplay seems rather face. However, in the top area, the flow is sort of good, and the gameplay is also sort of good. The first thing I’d like to complain about is the fact that reaching the carrot (and the RF Missle powerup, for that matter) is very, very Spaz biased. Jazz can make it up there with an uppercut, but that takes much longer. There are some other Spaz biased places, too. Either put springs, or make the level easy in general for Jazz to jump around in.
Ammo placement – Okay / Good
The carrots are a bit too close to the bottom, and they’re also a bit too close together, as are many of the powerups. Come to think of it, there are way too many powerups. The rest is nice, though.

I’ll end with a short review.

Download reccomendation: Nope.

You used a normal musicfile. Oh.

EYECANDY – - 7.5
No, not at all. I found it out that you overused many tiles and which is not funny at all. Looks pretty boring. No textured background either. Argh. Not again.

GAMEPLAY – - 5.5
You overused carrots. Way too many. A full health carrot in battle isn’t a good thing, because it’s straight 5 hearts immediately. And, oh. A seeker powerup. One point explodes.

STUFF PLACEMENT – - 6.7 (-1.0)
Seeeekeeerrr powerup =( Of course you had to place a seeker powerup to make this rating even worse. Ohhhh. The stuff placement is almost average. Below average. 6.7 – 1.0.

ORIGINALITY – - 8
Oh. A default JJ2 music file. I HATE THAT MUSIC OVER AND OVER. Too bad it doesn’t affect the originality except that using default music annoys me. H8.

OVERALL – - 6.5 (-1.0)
The seeker powerup lowered my rating by one. 6.5 would be good but it’s 5.5 then. Don’t upload everything you make…

THIS USELESS TEXT CONCLUDES THE REVIEW.

Nice battle my friend!
It has a good space, i cant say more, just good srry…

SRRY Reptile, srry i was not in the mood[This review has been edited by DranzerJ4E]

Snooz thnx, i was uploading and that was what i forgot[This review has been edited by DranzerJ4E]

Yes, this is indeed a good level. The tileset and the way it was all set up is average good.

The gameplay is very smooth and I only found 3 flaws in it when I wnet through it.

This is indeed a great 1 vs 1 level using spaz, but it is rather small. If you would have made the size bigger, like twice the size with the same quality, It would be a 8.0. It is just that it is to small man :P

a 10? a 7.2??? and crazyanthony is blackman and amstel. i saw his E-mail adress. did’t ya read the news?

Omg

Badly eyecandy. and look at the bugs in the wall. so
block bugs and also no music. its kinda boring
no coins or good eyecandy ( layer 7.

crazyanthony you gived it a 10 without any review. yor just sik. but okey you will recieve a warning ( it think )

but the gameplay is also BORING!

tileset used bad, to much bugs.

i will give it a 6.1 >>>> 6.2

Ðx

Ow sorry ;p[This review has been edited by Ðx]

Hey,my leader, but okay lets start :

This level looks okay/nice and it has a good ammo placament. It has no eyecandy, i’m missing that part.
But i think its nice to play with maximum 4 player ( he have make it for maximum 4 )
The layout is good, for you first battle level i want to give you a 7.2 (cuz i’m missing the eycandy)

DX, i’m amstel, the other guy is not me >([This review has been edited by DranzerJ4E]

OMG CTF PACK ;D

Level 1: Diamond Dusts

The first thing I saw is that this looks stup. This diamondus edition misses colors and makes the level look sux. Also it took me a while to know where are the warps. It’s very easy to score. I won’t host this level after this review. The originality.. it pwns. I won’t make a level like this. I really wouldn’t. That’s what differs from others. At least no seek powerup. Sick or reviewing. Bye.
TOTAL: 5.4

Level 2: Morpheus City

I found some bugs to make you stuck. =( No seeker powerup in here. FUN. The powerups are again easy to access. I don’t think I like this level much.. It takes a while to find out that you can drop down at the white building thing. Argh. I got sick of this level enough now. BYE. =(
TOTAL: 6.4

Level 3: Castle of Control

I found myself at the blue base, without being able to go anywhere. I didn’t see a reason for a suckertube there. I got sick and cheated out. Rating LOWER. The level’s eyecandy itself looks dull. Sometimes the eyecandy is weird. And how about the MUSIC… that suxxxxxxxx. No more stupid things here. I hate this level. You can’t play this thing without cheating. That’s enough. Bye.

TOTAL: 3.2

LEVEL 4: Mega-Galactix

This has no red startpoint, I saw that on Blur’s server. Instead, that’s a BLUE START POINT. So I captured the flag instantly after spawning. The level’s on top place where you can drop down, you can actually pass. Spaz only. This level is spaz biased. Stuff. The level looks like Snooz’s level. Looks almost the same. The layout is although different. There are two toaster powerups on each side. The NO RED START POSITION is enough to make me NEVER host this level. No. No. No. No. No. Enough NO’es.

TOTAL: 3.2

OVERALL:
It’s an average CTF pack, mostly BELOW average. The CTF pack had no FUN in it.
OVERALL: 4.8 ~ 4.7

Yeah, a CTF pack, so its time to review.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
yay. an CTF pack. Well, lets just say that it is average. there should be better eyecandy in some levels. Gamepaly could be better too. but lets continue with the review.btw, my reveiw will be quick..

LEVEL 1: Diamond dusts
EYECANDY: 6.5 – Hmm, standard eyecandy. no major compaliments. few tilebugs. spend more time to eyecandy.
GAMEPLAY: 7 – Moatly good, but could be better.
PLACEMENT 6.5 – Well, ammo placement is alrgiht. so are the bases. they shouldn’t have any warps though..
FUN FACTOR: 6 – this level is not fun.. mostly boring..
CONCLUSION:Standard level, but could use more eyecandy.. etc.
RATING:6.7
HOST THIS:No..

LEVEL 2: Morpheus city
EYECANDY: 7 Quite nice.. but it could use more eyecandy tiles..
GAMEPLAY: 6.7 – mostly good.. not very well balanced though.
PLACEMENT: 7 – Standard.. could be better. base placment is quite werid. don’t ask why, ;p
FUN FACTOR: 6.7 – well, its just too boring..
CONCLUSION:Average level. could use more eyecandy. and make your levels bigger.
HOST THIS:Nope..

Ok, im too lazy to write more, so lets just say that last two levels are average too, and they really could use more eyecandy. they should be larger too. next time when making a CTF pack, focus more on balance, and other things such as eyecandy. my rating is 6.7, good average rating.

~Snooz aka NiQ of J2VF

Yeah, i may change or edit reveiw later..

A CTF pack. How intriguing.

Diamond Dusts

GAMEPLAY: Could use some actual gameplay and a bigger layout. And fewer warps. Or at least some indication of where each warp goes.
EYE CANDY: Tileset is slightly misused. Otherwise average.
CARROT PLACEMENT: Decent, considering the symmetrical layout.
AMMO PLACEMENT: Not the worse, but less ammo so close to the ground would be nice.
HOST THIS OFTEN? Not at all.

Morpheus City

GAMEPLAY: Not really balanced or easy to get around. Layout could also be larger. Got stuck several times.
EYE CANDY: It’s alright, although nothing special.
CARROT PLACEMENT: Decent, considering the unbalanced layout.
AMMO PLACEMENT: Could’ve been distributed a little better.
HOST THIS OFTEN? Never.

Castle of Control

GAMEPLAY: Rather bland and confusing at first. Could be less squared off and bigger.
EYE CANDY: Falls short of average. Tiles with the shadows on them should’ve been used.
CARROT PLACEMENT: Actually, not that bad.
AMMO PLACEMENT: Could also have been distributed a little better and perhaps not in dead ends.
HOST THIS OFTEN? No.

Mega-Galactix

GAMEPLAY: It’s like a ripoff of Snooz’s Galatic level only worse. Could use a start position for red team. And I got stuck at top left a few times.
EYE CANDY: Eye candy is either dull or could look better. It’s a poor imitation of Snooz’s eye candy with the same set.
CARROT PLACEMENT: Alright, although the idea was mostly taken from Snooz’s level.
AMMO PLACEMENT: Once again, could’ve been distributed a little better and maybe not in so many rectangles.
HOST THIS OFTEN? I wouldn’t say so.

Overall review: In all, I wasn’t impressed. My number one complaint would have to be all of the unnecessary hidden passages. A few more indications of where a warp is and where it leads to should have been used. All of these levels could be bigger. There are several Spaz-biased issues in some of these levels. More originality would have been a good idea. Etc, etc, etc. I would point out a few other flaws, but the beta testers should have caught them. The last level isn’t even playable. I’m not in the mood of writing a huge review at the moment. Considering everything, 6.2 is my rating. I find this rating to be generous, so take it or leave it.

Hmmm

Its not bad. with some levels this will be very nice.
i will remix airbase MAYBY and will make a level also :P

but..
spazzymanny

Not bad the sounds ar good also the style.

what can i say more?

i give it a 7.0

i am bad at rating music.
so final rating: 7.0

Bye

I don’t think that I can rate it because the only thing what you did was speed up the song and you put out some unuseful things like you said. The song isn’t good at all – it sounds wierd and in my opinion the originall song is much better than this one

Download recomendation – no

I’ll not give rating as I said before but if I would give it would be a low rating .

NOKA

R3ptile, the layout of a level is not the same as the eyecandy. The layout is how well the level is layed out. A level with bad layout means that it’s rather mazelike. A level with good layout means that it’s easy to learn and to navigate through.

fast review!

Eyecandy is very nice. fun and you see the earth ( why not mars :P ) just kidding. but… nice ammo placed also carrot. bases
ar also great placed. good for duel levels. not instagib recommed but

and fun

>9.0< GREAT!

o i forgot

Host this: Yes
Download recommed: Yes

These are nice lvls.

Mini B1

The helicopter respawns, but some people can chicken out by being blasted upwards with seekers onto the top of the lvl, which people can hang out on. Also, the shield has been removed (nice job) and it keeps to the original.

Mini b2

Same as usual, except it has less ffs than usual. The spring area with the carrot is too small and can get crowded easily. I also think that a lot of bumpers were removed so I don’t think it sticks to the original much. Nice try though.

Mini b3

Again the same, although some ammo crates missing. The airboard is back (wee ha, fun with jjnowall) and the tunnel up near the top is good enough. This one doesn’t quite stick to the original, but it’s good enough.

Newspaz, I really think you did a good job, and a big applause to Cell for creating the mini idea. Other than that, you earn a B+. Congratulations. (Rating is 8.2)

Funny to play yes.

review come later.

I mayby give it a 8.3

Nice!!!!!!!
