[This review has been edited by ~BunnyBee[TF]]

I am posting this review out of disgust for the overratedness of this level pack.

All three of these levels are the same thing with the tileset switched. Essencially, this is just one level. I do not appreciate redundancy in level packs. Pick one tileset and stick with it. No one wants 3 of the same level.

These levels do not live up to their collective name. They may have eye-candy, but it is nothing remarkable. The eye candy is merely average, and in some places it is actually quite lacking and flawed. I found many tiling errors, and the background and foreground are virturally nonexistant. I have seen outstanding work done with this tileset in terms of visual appeal. This level does not use the capabilities of this tileset to full potential at all, nor does it look like the authour even tried that hard. There is no creative tile use at all, since the whole level has a generic look to it.

Despite the lack of the advertised eye-candy, things only get worse from there. The level is poorly designed, with a multitude of dead ends and an overall lack of strategic focus. The ammo placement is reasonably well done, but the selection of ammo is not. This level has ice and TNT, with no real use for them in the level. If there were a few springs to freeze or powerups to get through walls, I wouldn’t mind this. Unfortunately, there aren’t any powerups at all. I get the feeling that not much thought was put into the design of this level.

Bugs are numerous in this level. The choice of tiles is poor in some areas due to them being ugly, but it is also poor becuase of the masking in them. It is extremely easy to get stuck in the walls. Also, the left edge of the level has been left uncovered by tiles, meaning that anyone can hide there and be immune to the effects of people shooting. There is an abundance of ricochet events, things which are known to cause 3+ heart kills due to their erratic behaviour and bad coding. The worst problem is the getting stuck, which I explained above. It is so bad that there is one area of the level where pretty much all of the walls like to eat players.

Overall I get the feeling that this level was rushed. Areas of the level seem incomplete. This level also has not been tested well enough, or perhaps it wasn’t tested at all. The layout is quite “mindless” meaning that there is really no apparent strategy here (nothing unique at least).

Please, test your levels with other people and get their opinions before you ask for ours on J2O. While they will offer good advice on how to improve your level, we will just give criticism, possibly negative. If you neglect the advice of testers or do not select ones which know what they are doing, you might get some jerk like me spoiling your nice 7 average by exposing the level as it really is.

Overall Rating: 3.7

Unimpressive.

Firstly, Lab, Don’t just put all the bad stuff do some good stuff too like the rest of the reviewers.

Now to the review,

Eye candy: well what Taz said theres only eye candy on layers 3 and 4.
Flow:this flow is not too bad but id say to make it better if I helped.
Gameplay:Tis’ fun I hvent played it on the net yet but…this is ok.
Ammo placement: very good but nothing special
Overall: Fun and I like the music :P

I don’t like this level at all. It has bad flow, and the eyecandy is bad. The gameplay is boring, and slow. Everybody overrates Acid’s levels, big time. I don’t understand why. Sorry, but this is definetely not 7.7 quality. The way actually hosted before to get reviewers to review it fairly, because of this… expect some fair reviews like this one.

Neon: What good stuff?[This review has been edited by labratkid]

It is a ok level, it dont have many ammo but eyecandy is good. Gameplay is ok. Maybe can it be higher but you decide for it.
My Rating is 6,5

It`s a good Battle level and it is the best first level i ever seen. Great job Scizor CT and you need to download this.
My rating is 7,5

I played this level and the first thing I found out was a little bad eyecandy. Especially the corners of the level. They have eyecandy bugs. The music really doesn’t fit the level though, that music file is more to space station or other levels of that type.
This level DOES have enough ammo. Too much. The last rating I give shall be 7.2. Catch the rating and make more levels!

EDIT: One sentence removed because the name was changed =)))[This review has been edited by the WINNER]

Nice levels, but not so much eyecandy as you would expect.
All of the levels are the same, only another tileset (Sirius 1, 2 and 3) anf I thought it was another bad conversion with another tileset of the Battle Games. I was wrong.
The levels are ok in gameplay, there are many Sirius Tubes and waterfalls and the placement of all things is great. Sadly, the eyecandy is not really many, only on layer 3 and 4. On L 3 and L4 It’s nice. But the other layers are not used, except for layer 8.
You’ll surely host this sometimes. Download it.

Sonic, not me.

Intro: well, eyecandy battle is weird name :p i think, but anyway, people can name their packs how they want.
Eyecandy:good – this pack includes 3 levels and they really have much eyecandy. they have eyecandy bugs too…
Tileset use:good
Gameplay-average
Ammo placement:ok….
Fun factor:ok…..
Overall: Good/average……..
These three levels are good.Downlaod recommedation…

-THIS IS NOTHING PERSONALY but
i hate single player zips with only one level.

Hwo agree?

This levels have a bit good eyecandy. But the rest is not very good at all. I lower my rating to 6,5
[This review has been edited by da man]

Ok, I re-edit this review.
Gameplay: Very Good. The gameplay rocks, there are several routes to get to the bases only there is some Spaz biasing on 2 places. First is to get the seeker PU without taking the spring. Second is to jump to the left without taking the sucker tube that leads to it at the place of the bouncer PU. The spring placement is very good, it’s just excellent gameplay.
Eye candy: Good/Very Good. It’s not perfect, but its well nicely done. Some good gates in the brick tiles or something and some other stuff such as ‘‘I was here’‘ at the bases. There could be more in some places, such as at the right base.
Pickup placement: Very Good. I havent seen many levels with that good as this, there is lots of ammo with the right forms. There are 3 PU`s, but I liked it when the Gun8 was a RF PU. The Full energy and Bouncer PU are at one place, while the seeker PU is under a green thing where you can shoot through.
Others: Host often: Yes, very often.
Download: Of course.
My Final rating isnt changed, it’s still a 9.[This review has been edited by da man]

Hey! Cool… this is a very cool level pack I think and the title (energized action) fits. Let’s begin by 10.0
Level 1: Lost In Ancient Ruins
This level used the Aztec tileset and looks good, I haven’t seen any tile bugs, my only comment is the question ‘what does a monkey in ancient ruins ???’ :) (-0.1). Also the music for this level is very good but coz’ it wasn’t in this pack (I had it from your battle pack :)) I won’t rate it.
Rating: 9.9
Level 2: Construction Side
The second level was on the beton land. The part I played was cool but short, then the game crashed and on the screen there was a window ‘ERROR – can’t read from adress blablabla…’. Please fix that.
Rating: 8.9
Level 3: Stomping On The Stones
This level was harder than the first but not too hard. The tileset is again perfectly used. The only thing that I don’t like (in every level) is that there are so many ways. (-0.5)
Rating: 8.4
Level 4: The Great Glacier
Nothing more to say: This level is great. All the tiles fits and I found nothing that I don’t liked. +0.5
Rating: 8.9
Level 5: Desert Detour
This lvl was already cool. I don’t like the music :-p but that won’t affect the rating.
Rating: 8.9
Level 6: Grey Matter Adventure
This level was a bit harder than the lvls before. I don’t like the tileset so much :-D (sorry, I don’t know why) but this level was challenging. One comment: don’t make it spaz-biased. (-0.4)
Rating: 8.5
Level 7: A Maze Made Of Wood
The next level is a maze with the woodlands tileset. As I read the title I thought: OOOOOH NOOOOO!!!!!! not another maze!
But then as I played I begun to like it. Cool made so +0.5 :-)
Rating: 9
Level 8: Autumn Leaves
First: that is a stupid name for the tileset that level used :-).
So this level is also cool. Nice trigger use, but it doesn’t look like winter (that comes after autumn I thought [:-D]-I-X ). I don’t see any bugs in tileset use and the baddy placement is ok.
Rating: 9
Level 9: A Base In Outer Space
Wow, I like the tileset. This level was harder then before and makes very good use of the set. Also I see: very very cool background (+o.2). Baddy placement is ok.
Rating: 9.2
Level 10: Arabian Oasis Ambush
This final level is only one thing: KOOL
The eventing is ok (can u say ‘eventing’ ?? I’m not sure :] ) but hard, the tileset is very KOOL and the music…WOW :)
My only comment is that there are too much ravens I think (-0.2). The endboss is ok but don’t fits with the tileset.
Rating: 9
Tileset 1: Aztec
Very cool tileset. It isn’t too hard to use (+0.1) and the background looks good
Rating: 9.1
Tileset 2: Beton Day + Night
Yeah, that tileset is KOOL. It is (again) easy to use (+0.1) and looks totally cool. I am making a level with the day version now. Again +0.2 cause there is the day version included. (in the episode blade only used the night version).
Rating: 9.4
Tileset 3: Rocks
Hmm.. it’s ok. I don’t think it is the best of your tilesets but it isn’t the worst. Again easy to use.
Rating: 9.4
Tileset 4: Glacier
Woah, coooooool. I like this tileset very much so I give +0.2 :-).
Rating: 9.6
Tileset 5: Desert
hmm…. I don’t like it much but sometimes it isn’t bad. It’s ok.
Rating: 9.6
Tileset 6: sorry I forgotten the name :-)
No….I don’t like it. I don’t know why but I don’t like it. sorry blade. :-/
Rating: 9.5
Tileset 7: Woodlands
Easy to use and looking good. No more to say
Rating: 9.7
Tileset 8: again forgotten the name
It isn’t worse but not the best. It’s ok.
Tileset 9: that alien thingie :-)
WOW!!!!! Cool tileset. Again it is easy to use and I think u can do cool eyecandy with it. Thx for this tileset blade
Rating: 9.9
Tileset 10: Arabian thing :-/
The best of your tilesets I have seen. It isn’t so easy to use but it is possible I think. U can do anything you want with it.
Rating: 10.0
So now we are again at 10. But there are again things that affects the rating:
1.You can’t play with Lori. :-( -0.5
2.The levels are all in the same style (would say: Only new things in the woodland maze) -0.5
So now here you have a SUPER 9 (!!!) from me. make more levels blade

i like the music it is good for my Eye candy battle thing !

Very, very good level. Good for 2 – 10 players. Good eyecandy, good playable… GOOD WORK!!! Cool… Somebody there hates me. This is second line. See? So it’s okay. OK, Traft? It’s complete![This review has been edited by Danyjel]

Link is broken so i cant download it

Now it is the best CTF level what I know. Ideal for 3v3 and more but not good for duels. Big and funny level. Blue team has better position than red… But it is only little bug in that very, very good level. AWESOME.
high download reccommendation[This review has been edited by Danyjel]

Ouch that hurt my ears even more. :S

Ok, I’ll make this short: this remix is terrible, even more than the other (Lizardry Wizardry). It suffers from the same symptoms, mentioned in my other review: instruments don’t fit, tempo is off, too fast (the other was too slow, bare with me here :S). The only good thing was that funny speeded up voice you hear when you have repeat on off (Winamp anyone? I use ModPlug).

Verdict:
Yet, again, no good rating, this remix doesn’t improve on the original. Sorry, a 3.5 for the effort ( +.5 for the squeaky voice)

- JelZe GoldRabbit =:3

Ouch, that hurt my ears :s

Unless I’m very much mistaking, this is a remix of the JJ1 Secret song (i.e. the music of the Deserto secret level, where Jazz is turned into a lizard. So the name does make sense, people). And it’s a bad one (Never thought I’d say that). The instruments don’t fit the song at all, the tempo is too mild, too slow for the original mood of the song. Sorry, I just can’t give this a good rating.

Verdict:
My filosophy for remixes is: a good remix improves on the song. In that point of view, this remix lacks severely. No recommendation at all. Rating: 4
