Full of dead ends and hard to navigate. Too many pointless crevices. The powerup is hidden behind TWO secret passages, PLUS a coin warp…. or you can shoot it with electroblaster. The level does do a good job of visually distinguishing different areas, though, and the houses look nice even though there’s little incentive to be aboveground.
Pretty good.
TILESET USE/EYE CANDY: Good. All the tiles fit together, I thought there was enough eye candy. There could have been more though, and it would have been just as good. Still, an 8 isn’t bad.
8/10
GAMEPLAY: The flow of the level was ok, but I think that the entrances to the sewers should have been farther on the left and right. I like battle levels to be circular.
8/10
ITEM/WEAPON PLACEMENT: I don’t understand the food, and wherever you have weapons, I think you have too many in one place. Also, I think you have too many rapid fires. On the plus side, the respawn times are good.
7/10
ORIGINALITY: Really, it’s just a battle level, but the sewers are neat, so you get a 7.
7/10
REPLAY VALUE: This seems fine. I think replay would be more if it were larger, or more secrets, so an 8.
8/10
OVERALL (An average): I like math, so my overalls are average. (My overalls are average? I don’t wear overalls.)
7.6, rounded up to 7.7.
PS (Trafton, I hope I did better on this review)

Now, the sewers I thought were awesome, but the the top area wasn’t as good, so I thought I’d review the sewers as one… and the top area as one… than average them together.
TOP AREA
————
EYECANDY: 7.0
Could have been better, some of the tiles just didn’t seem to cut it. Nothing “special” here, either.
WEAPON PLACEMENT: 7.5
Nice, but I think you should never put food in your battle levels; Sugar Rush isn’t fair sometimes.
BUGS: 9.5
Good, but at the upper left corner of the map, after you climb the one way window-sills… there is a small area (like 5×1) covered up by Layer 3. Nothing is here. Was there something in an earlier version?
OVERALL: 8/10
Sewers area
—————-
EYECANDY: 9.5
Perfect. Nothing is wrong here, but not too much is impressive. Great, though.
WEAPONS PLACEMENT: 8.5
Still, too much food, but not as much here. Also, I think it was smart to make the carrot in a place where you needed bouncy ammo to get to it. You can’t give away free carrots, now can you? :-b
BUGS: 10
No bugs.
OVERALL: 9.3/10
9.3 + 8.0 = 17.3
17.3 / 2 = 8.65 = 8.7
8.7 (ding, ding, ding!)

This battle level excellent in my opinion. let me review it.
Gameplay:
Gameplay is very good here. navigating is hard sometimes, but when youll learn this level properly, its very easy.
Eyecandy: Sewers Area is kinda awesome. no tilebugs, and there’ lots of eyecandy. top area has eyecandy too, but not that much. i like the background layers too.
Layout: layout is ok. i don’t have any problems with it. ;b
Placement: Ok. tehres many weapons in this level, and they’re placed very well imo. i don’t have problems with the placement.
Overall: This is very good battle level. download is recommeded. ;)
