I can’t rate this fully because the weirdness of this episode. And You shall not use someone’s other’s level’s. How could you? No copies next time you make a level. Make your own level. Oh, there is so much things in your levels that should be changed, so, this is so strange level, that I give it 2.
Hey, guy!
Remember to name your levels to other than original levels of jj2, so someone could play em. I don’t wanna lose the original shareware episode of jj2, and also make your own episode or level! Do not copy or remix any level, okay, so it will be more interesting, and better also.
Seems that the xargon is a game, but at least, it’s unknown for me. Well tileset looked quite fine, and this is like a conversion, I give it an 8.
Good things:
eyecandy is good
its hard
Bad things:
its so short!
————————————————————
Overall: 6.5
Great, slimy tileset with eyecandy!
Im very tired so i wrote an a small review…..
Good job! i had the xargon once, and i loved it! i have decided that this ileset deserves 8.5!
download recommedation , if you are fan of xargon!
sorry i didnt realize that the first level was carrot cream and i thought it was another level that i had made in my spare time and i cant figure out how to change that sry
What? This superb tileset has got a average rating of only 9.1? Deserves better!
PS: May I use some of your tilesets in a project I’m working on?
Good! I loved the original Marbelara and this conversion is really good, one of the best conversions around!
PS: Could I use some of your tilesets for a project I am working on?
PPS: Please make conversions of Fanolint, Orbitus and Megairbase. I would be happy.
You know, this tileset is great!
I think you are a as good converter as CelL and Violet CLM
PS: I think you use the rocket turtle together with the area ID. I’m not sure cause I’m a newbie.
I’ll let you off this time since you are making edits of default levels.
Now, when I extract this, I am going to have to delete all of Mikeejimbo’s levels that I was trying to beta-test because they have the same filename, and I’m going to have to delete all the single player shareware levels I all ready have because you didn’t change the filename. So I created a new folder and ran them manually.
Making me do this work is all ready a bad thing.
New.j2l
Pros
Traces of good eyecandy here and there.
The author knows how to use water effectively, something I didn’t learn for a while in my level making campaigns.
Some effort.
Good for a new level maker.
Cons
Bad eyecandy.
Bad weapons / enemy placement.
Short.
Boring.
New1.j2l
Oh my. Oh my, oh my.
Pros
None.
Cons
There are 4 tiles used here in all – 3 of which are shootable tiles.
It’s a maze level underwater. I hate these :(
It would put a kid with insomnia in a European ghetto in 1939 during an air raid by the German army to sleep pronto. Lucky me I’m not too tired.
Short.
Short.
Short.
Shor— oops, I all ready said that =)
Bad enemy placement, bad ammo placement.
Too many.
New2.j2l
Better.
Pros
Not linear.
Not quite as boring.
Good eyecandy here and there… actually, in one or two places.
Still boring.
Cons
Short
Bad eyecandy
Etc.
I’m not reviewing the other levels because they are WAY too similar to the originals. My review is based on your levels only.
Overall
Pros
Some effort here and there.
Not linear.
Cons
Bad eyecandy.
Short.
Etc.
Sorry, no download reccomendation. Put more effort into your levels. Download a good single player level, and look at it – look at what makes a single player level good.
To make a good single player level.
1.) Make it long.
2.) Make it original.
3.) Make it hard, but not TOO hard.
4.) Put in skill level settings.
5.) Put in funny text messages :-)
6.) Put in food, but don’t overdo it!
7.) Put in gems.
8.) What am I saying? Read some articles in the articles section.
Keep practicing…….

Not to be mean or anything, but…
WHY DID YOU UPLOAD SOMEBODY ELSES WORK EDITTED WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION!?!?!?!?!?
Level 1
This is the level, Carrot Cream, but you decided to give it a make over, just so it’d be hard to recognize. Well, you know what? I regonized it. And this is not your work.
Level 2
I’ve never seen this level elsewhere, but it’s still very bad. Bad eyecandy, too short…
Level 3
Better, but still bad.
Level 4
Bad, short, bad.
Pros
SOME effort…
Sort of good for a beginner.
Cons
The first level is NOT your work!!
Bad eyecandy
Awful enemy placement.
If you’re going to make a level, please make it your own level with your own ideas – you copied the level, Carrot Cream, and I know it – you took out the credits for the original carrot cream, too. THe place with the sucker tube and the green gems was the place where the REAL people were credited. So in hopes of us not finding out it’s not yours, you deleted them.
cough Plagurism.
Argh this sucks, whee yay.
Okay, now that I’ve got that out of my system, on with the review.
Okay, an UT2K3 tileset by Bunnyelmer. First of all, I have to agree with Lab Rat Kid, that making conversions from a 3D game is generally a bad idea, since I haven’t seen a single good conversion from a 3D game. Second of all, I don’t have UT2K3, so I’m not really able to compare it with the tileset. But alright, here goes.
COLORS:
Most of the tiles look sort of low-quality, and the entire tileset has pretty boring colors; its mostly light brownish. The colors of the background look especialy messy. Not much more to say here.
Pros: None that I can think of.
Cons: Boring, some messy colors.
Rating: 1/5
MASKING:
None to speak of, the entire tileset is auto-masked. NEVER, NEVER auto-mask a tileset.
Pros: once more, none that I noticed.
Cons: Auto-mask. Whee argh.
Rating: 0/5
EXTRA TILES:
Apart from some animated warp thingy that reminds me of MEZ03, a few letters and numbers, some rain and some Level/Tileset by Bunnyelmer thingy, none to speak of. Slopes have been added, though.
Pros: Slopes!
Cons: No vines, destruct blocks, poles, etc.
Rating: 1.2/5
APEARENCE:
This apears to be some sort of Egyptian tomb or temple, with wall painting and the regular stuff. The brick tiles look decent, and so do the painting things. Sadly, I’m afraid that if you’re going to use anything apart from the (pretty ugly) sky background it’s going to be hard to tell the background from the foreground. Also, the sky background doesn’t fit together properly unless you flip it, same goes for the palmtree that, I’m asuming, is ment for layer 5/6/7.
Pros: Most of it looks average/slightly below average.
Cons: The entire thing isn’t exactly gorgeous, and some tiles look rather ugly.
Rating: 2/5
USERFRIENDLINESS:
This tileset seems easy enough to use. Thats for the most part because there’s not much to use, though. ‘Nuff said.
Pros: Easy enough to use.
Cons: None, really.
Rating: 4/5
SIMULARITY TO ORIGINAL GAME:
Can’t say, don’t have it.
Pros: N/A
Cons: N/A
Rating: N/A
OVERALL:
Overall this is a below average conversion. It looks somewhat ugly and dull (though that could partly be blamed on the game it came from… I wouldn’t know), its auto-masked(!!!1111), and has litle to no usefull added tiles.
Pros: Nothing in particular.
Cons: Nice for keeping one amused on a (very) rainy afternoon.
Rating: 2.85
FINAL RATING: 3.0 (rounded)
DOWNLOAD THIS?: Um. No.
nice beat with a techno tune
this level only has a cool tileset
Conversions from first person shooters never come out good because one wall tile from that game takes about 8 – 10 on JJ2, so you have to align everything PERFECTLY. It’s no different with this. I won’t rate it because you didn’t even make it a .j2t, there is no mask, and nothing to do but look at a .bmp. I’ll rate if after you make a mask and create a .j2t.
Bad sorry.
The platforms are incomplete etc.
Gameplay: 0.5
You can like the gameplay or not its funny to hop over platforms the whole time but not a nice battling stile.
Its all the same.
Eyecandy: 0.2
There is a bit eyecandy on a other layer, but its also the same evreytime wich gets boring quikly.
Event Placement : 0
The coins are useless. ANd you cant get to the powerups.
Used : 0
There was no music and for a standaard tileset you should do far more better but you’r just new.
General : 0.1
0.8 I really cant give more sorry.
Download ? No.
Host ? No.
Very usefull thanks a lot.
Try to make some in other style to :).
I’m sorry, but 4.7 is as generous as I’m gonna get with you, bro.
Challenge (nowater): TOO easy. One punch or better yet, (secretmove), and SPLAT. LORI DOES HAVE SECRET MOVE AND I’M NO TELLING. :p. .2/1.0
Challenge (water): ACKITY ACK-ACK There’s a good point. It’s hard but not impossible. 1.0/1.0
Eyecandy: Too bland. .1/1.0
Weapons: No powerups? .0/1.0
Shields: Did it ever occur to you that i’m STILL working on Prject Laser?
0/1.0
It deserves a 1.7, but I feel generous. 4.7. I KNOW YOU CAN BETTER THAN THIS.
It’s good, but you get bored with it. I downloaded this at Jazz2 City.
