Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Online

NOT FOUND.
PLEASE RE-UPLOAD!!!

This download consists out of two levels. The first level (ICbattle4.j2l) is a remake of the level that came with the OEM versions of Jazz2. It’s not a perfect conversion but it comes very close. I wouldn’t bother playing it online because it relies heavily on the fact that in the OEM version TNT could do damage to other players. But I would like to note that I think it’s very nice we can play that level with 1.23 now. So it’s a nice added bonus to the remake. Now, let’s rate the actual remake.

Eye Candy
First I would like to mention that the eye candy is superb. It looks very nice, although I can imagine that some people don’t like the amount of foreground eye candy. I myself like that so it won’t affect your rating. There also are a couple of nice touches like the light effects, moth events, and you even see a leaf fly by occasionally. When you look at the original level (ICbattle4.j2l) it becomes obvious why the level needs this much eye candy.

Gameplay
The level isn’t much more than a big open area with some platforms in it. Which is obvious because the creators tried to remake a level with the same problems. They did a nice job disguising the problem with the eye candy I mentioned earlier. And I really don’t want to lower my rating much over this slight problem. They also did lots of things to improve the level flow such as adding a bunch of springs, flow up, and one way events.

Ammo and pickup placement
I think the level is slightly out of balance, it has three carrots and they are quite near to eachother. The variaty of ammo is pretty good as well. There are three power ups to be found, and this should make playing this with couple of people a lot of fun. I’m not sure if I would prefer this for duels though. I don’t really get how I should take the seeker power up, but perhaps I’m not the brightest star out there.

Conclusion
Very nice level nonetheless and the original battle4 is an extra bonus. I will definitely host it a couple of times.

Rating Boss Practice Levels:

Rating:
This episode is not good. Just six levels, with nothing more than a boss.
No bonusses, no other enemies and a bad eyecandy.
If you want to practice with the bosses, this is not a good choice. Jazz Jackrabbit 2 has a total of 10 working bosses. The fat ones are not fought in this episode:

• Bilsy Boss
• Bolly Boss
• Bubba Boss
• Robot Boss
• Devil Devan Boss
• Queen Boss
• Rocket Turtle Boss (in the Enemies—->Bad Guys-list. You can make a course from it with AreaID-events)
• Tuf Boss
• Uterus Boss
• XMAS Bilsy Boss (with ADDON Dog you can place this boss)

There are no enemies and I have seen pretty much Boss-area\‘s that does have enemies. There is also no way to refill your health. I call that very inportant in a practice-episode.

The best boss-practice-episode on Jazz2Online is Boss Rush Mode, made by CrimiClown.

Conclusion:
If you want to practice with the bosses, this is not a good choice.

Review time ;D (I haven’t reviewed in forever)

Okay, let’s start off seeing how this compares to what its remixing (Xmas1). Listening through it, all the patterns from the original are in the remix (and all have been made to sound better), and LRK has also expanded the song with more good sounding patterns to make it play even longer. In conclusion, he stuck pretty close to the original melody of the song and you can find what patterns are where pretty easily.

As for how the song plays, it plays really well. The instruments go together well and make the song a pleasure to listen to, even if you didn’t like the original Xmas1. Percussion sounds really nice, and guitar is great too.

Finally, you can tell this is a quality song when you look at it (in ModTracker, for example). LRK made this very well and didn’t just stick in random notes in places, and it shows. It’s a very good remix, and definately deserves a download and a few listens. Great job on creating an awesome tune!
