Well, moving platforms! Quite interesting. You have to balance the difficulty in your levels. There has to be some easy parts, some difficult… Also the ending boss was nearly impossible to beat. In your levels you HAVE TO increase the amount of the goodies and EYE CANDY. 7.5 for now…
Note: The animated tiles were really good and original. Bravo!

I could go through a long, boring, process on why this is good. But I’ll give you my answer: WOW, NICE JOB. IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD!

I’m glad this is TSF. TSF is all I have.

(If you don’t care about telling us why this is good, don’t give it a rating. Unsupported rating removal edit. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]

Oh! Diamondus! That tileset has been used for 10.000 times!!!!
So
Good eye candy, hard secrets, overall 7.2

It’s very good and all, but I thought it got kinda confusing with the creative use of layers on the beach and such. Good job. :)

Wheres the Classic JJ1 Diam. Backround?

Day Tiles:
9.5/10 the origanal backround is missing
(Nice Anims!)

Night/Evening Tiles:
9.0/10 Very erm.. Diffrent..

Tile Overall: 9.2

There is another JJ1 Diamondus, but it’s not on the site. Get it by downloading Evilmike’s Shine-o-Rific Land, or my JJ1: Warzone, etc. However, it’s not a very good conversion. All though this is TSF, which I’m very ticked off about, it’s a great conversion in any case. You should send the source image to someone who has 1.23

Okay, let’s begin. I’ll give a great tileset a long review compared to many of my tileset reviews. When I reinstalled Netscape, the font I’m typing with now suddenly looks cool, so I’ll enjoy this review much more. =P

Conversions – Very good
Ground? Check. Trees? Check. Waterfalls? Check. Clouds? Check. Sun? Check. Signs? Check. Caves? Check. Grass? Check. OMF Robots? Check. Animations? Check. Arrows? Check. Other stuff that I’m too lazy to list? Check. You have everything in the tileset in this set, or at least it appears that way. My only complaint, which I also find annoying in CelL’s conversions, is that the colors that was R0B0G0 (black) in Jazz Jackrabbit 1 is now Something like R20B20G20… Whatever it is, it’s noticable that it’s much lighter in comparison to JJ1’s black things. You should make the stuff that WAS black R8B8G0. I usually do that to make it look seemingly black. You can only notice differences between that and black if you zoom up really close, or fiddle with your contrast enough to make everything look stupid, anyway. Overall, you have everything you need in JJ1: Diamondus and more, which I’ll get to later. You have a classic JJ1 background there, and I’m not sure if it’s the original JJ1 Diamondus’ background, but, whatever it is, it looks great. There is one of those small turtles (non-animated, but I won’t take off any points since you don’t need it anyway), you have, ‘cold’ Jazz, and regular Jazz. There are also have Letni computers with NOKA’s logo on them. There are no flipped tiles to my knowledge, which is something I’m often tempted to do.
Pros: You have everything you need and more, no flipped tileset, etc.
Cons: The black stuff looks a little too light, like CelL’s conversions up to his Battleships v2.0.
Overall: Great job.

Animations : Okay / Good
The animations were confusing to assemble and they just don’t seem to work all that good. First of all, it seems that you, ‘cheated’ with the small waterfall thing. You only ripped one tile and you made your own animation out if it by making it scroll downward. It’s noticable, and looks very ugly. Once you figure out how to assemble the large waterfall animation correctly, it looks good. Let’s see what else… the arrow animations look good, too.
Pros: Nice large waterfall and arrow animations.
Cons: Ugly small waterfall animation; can be confusing to assemble
Overall: Good job, except for some things…

Masking – Good / Very good
The masking would be acceptable if you just made this tileset and were not trying to make it just like the real JJ1: Diamondus, but as a perfect score of 10.0 would mean that the tileset is… well, perfect, would mean that everything is masked the same. Let’s begin with the signs. In JJ1, the signs – which include RABBITS STINK, JAZZ JACKRABBIT, DEVAN SHELL, and CHECKPOINT signs were all masked. More appropriately, the whole left side was masked about 28 pixels to the right. The 4 or so pixels on the right are unmasked. This tileset unmasks all the signs, which can be good if you want it to be like that… as much as I think it’s better to have them like that, it’s not following the original tileset’s masking. Nextly, the masking on the vines is a bit too thick. You should usually go with one pixel high masking for them, according to Violet, who you should all look at as the most wonderful modern tileset masker. WORSHIP HIS MASKING SKILLS! NOW! Same with the hook’s masking. These two masking things are nothing big at all. The vines and hooks still work perfectly. I’m just telling you how Violet masks his vines and hooks. Interesting masking story. Nice of you to dedicate it to Violet =P His Orbitus conversion is coming out soon. Look for it. Okay, back on topic… There’s an invisible block, and that’s all ways good. I could babble on about the masking all day, but I don’t want to.
Pros: Great masking.
Cons: Incorrect sign masking.
Overall: GJ =D

Compatibility – Okay
Ah, the feared rating category many an author loses points on in my reviews. First of all, the poles don’t work, and for a nature tileset like this, that’s not good. The pinball events don’t work, but since it’s a nature tileset and all, that’s okay. Water works okay in 8bit. Since I don’t play in 8bit, I usually don’t take off many points if water doesn’t work. There is a working textured background that looks nice. The classic JJ1 type background also looks nice as a textured background.
Pros: Water works in 8bit for the most part, and there’s a textured background (two textured backgrounds, in a way).
Cons: Poles don’t work, pinball events don’t work, and water doesn’t work perfectly in 8bit.
Overall: You should ask a veteran tileset maker, ideally one of the better ones who still play and have poles in their tilesets for help putting in poles. If you can understand how to make a textured background, you can understand how to make poles.

Evening and night versions – Okay
Well, I was up to here in the review and I completely forgot you had those versions. All the good stuff I’ve seen so far made me think the evening and night versions would be great. Much to my (what’s the opposite word for delight? “Disgust,” sounds like I would hate the evening and night versions), I dislike the evening version, and think the night version is okay. The evening version looks all pink… and pink. It looks like it’s representing Lori Central or something. Whatever it is, I don’t like it. It’s too pink. And pink. And pink. The night version, however, I like. It tries to follow The JJ2 Diamondus Night’s colors – dark purple dirt, dark greenish blue grass, etc. I think it’s still a little too bright, though, especially the textured background.
Pros: Original…. neat.
Cons: Ugly and pink and pink and pink and ugly and pink evening version. The night version is too bright, too, IMO.
Overall: Original… neat. I don’t even know why I added an overall category after PROS and CONS, because it just sums up the pros and cons anyway, not saying anything new, and it often makes me go off topic like I’m doing now. ASHKAJSHKJASHKJHASKJAHSKAJHKJASH =D LAG PING

Before I spend the whole afternoon writing, I’m going to end the review here and leave out what I was going to say about the blocks Noka put in, the nice looking vines, and the nice looking hooks, and the nice looking V and HPOLES, and the nice looking (I forgot what I was going to put here! >().

Just download this. And build with this. And worship this.

MAKE A CRYSILIS (yes, I know, Cooba, I spelled that wrong, didn’t I?) CONVERSION NEXT, BECAUSE THE ONE ON THE SITE RIGHT NOW NEEDS WORK! REMEMBER THE ANIMATIONS AND STUFF PLZ =D

Good job. Here’s an 8.7.[This review has been edited by labratkid][This review has been edited by labratkid][This review has been edited by labratkid][This review has been edited by labratkid]

Wow, today in school, I was reading the grafitti on the desk, and it said NOKA on it![This review has been edited by labratkid]

This is no longer TSF! Download it now.[This review has been edited by labratkid]

Edit: IMHO, there should be a tiny little drop at the end of the ground tiles that turn into bridges. When you run at them and there is a bridge connected to them, you don’t touch the bridge immediately. You don’t touch it until a couple tiles later.[This review has been edited by labratkid]

dx dc, do not rate the example level. Kekeke. http://www.jazz2online.com/downloads/moreinfo.php?levelid=3
:D
First some off-topic notes: you misspelled “Violet” and the font for the “approaching” text could have been better. I won’t take points for that though.

The tileset is good. In fact, I think it’s better than EvilMike’s conversion. It has everything his conversion had, plus lots of extra’s like a textrued background, text signs, JJ1 sprites, the “approaching” picture (yay!), destruct blocks, sucker tubes and well, lots more.
It basically has every tile that was in the JJ1 diamondus, I ddin’t check everything but at a glance I didn’t miss any tile. It also borrowed some tiles from the JJ2 Diamondus, like a mushroom and the arrows. It still has the JJ1 (animated) arrows though. The textured background looks quite nice and is useful, however the author didn’t forget to include a JJ1-like gradient background (that doesn’t have the same colors as in JJ1 anyway).
The layer 6+7 eyecandy is there too, however it doesn’t look allright at some places, probably something with the palette. The masking is pretty good, luckily the “rabbits stink” sign isn’t masked like in EvilMike’s conversion. I am still amazed by the amount of animations in this set, really everything that was animated in JJ1 can be animated with this tileset.
The author keeps telling you that he sucks while Violet rules, but I think he has created a JJ1 conversion that s at least as good as Violet’s conversion. You earned a 9.0 ;)

EDIT: I forgot to speak about the night/evening versions. Well, they are just as good as the “day version” ;)

EDIT 2:
JelZe, I still don’t get what your point is. I reviewed it with TSF because it didn’t work in 1.23. You mean I forgot to mention that in my review? In that case:
THIS IS TSF BAH

~Ðx

Okey sorry for the Ex-level rating…
I looked again…

i must say yes a 9![This review has been edited by dx dc]

ok ,the next lvl i make is better then this, i got it

Review time again! Let`s start:
Gameplay: This level has no gameplay. It`s way too small and there`s only one platform.
Eyecandy: There are a few objects and some animations, that makes at least a few eyecandy. But it’s still boring.
Ammo placement: There were a few power-ups at the beginning and a few crates at the end with another power-up and a fast fire. There was also a 1-up that’s unnecessary in this level because it’s no SP. A carrot at the middle was better, but then it will be very dumb too because it’s just wayy too small.
Others: There were lots of tile bugs. No good platform. And there was no background!
My rating is a 1 because there’s nothing good about this level only a few animations but that’s the only thing. It was boring, too.

IS A GREAT ASSAULT!!!!
rating from me an 10

good,wow,super,supereme

the end is good evreything is good!!!!
i love it!

Tileset not found

Lulu if you want to upload a level that uses a custom tileset include the tileset because not everyone has every tileset. Which tileset did you use?

(Unsupported rating removal edit. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]

(Unsupported rating removal edit. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]

I like this tileset,this is just great,
the floor,lockers,doors,….
this is one of the best tileset i’ve ever seen.

I thought it was great! But there were a tad too many puzzles at times.

(Unsupported rating removal edit. Don’t do this again. ~Violet)[This review has been edited by Violet CLM]

After long time I will continue writing reviews…..but not a long one this time ;-P
Why not a long? Not because I don’t like Dx or this level. (I like Dx :-))
More because I am too dumb to finish this ;-p
Let’s begin…

Gameplay was good, but too hard. The level has food, gems, Very much enemies and a little little little bit (9x) of RF ammo. Too less. The level is VERY (VERY) HARD and I couldn’t finish it. There are some moving platforms and if you fall down you die. At first I thought this will be the CTF dying thingy but it isn’t. Dx, why does the safepoint before the boss not work??? Confusing

Eyecandy is the bad point of the level. I think only layer 4 is used. Oh, I forgot there is a little bit of layer 3. But nothing other. Bad

Item placement was okay, but there are too much enemies and too less ammo.

The level is hard, could be fun.
The level is too hard, could be dissapointing.

Overall very hard level. I think it gets a download reccomendation but ONLY for those who are searching a REALLY hard level.
TOTAL PLAYING TIME: 35 minutes, then I got mad and hit the esc key ;-P

Have fun and sorry because the review is a bit short this time. I won’t give a rating because I couldn’t finish it.

PHT

well

1-good eyecandy
2-good ammo placed
3-good food placed
4-originally
5-good story
6-good baddies placed!

YOR levels ar amezing!

here catch!
