- Ambush Island by
raptor JPL : 27.2KB : high ** I like the design, but you may notice that most of the platforms have a rectangular shape. I always encourage variations in the shape of the platforms. |
Race |
- Electric Speedway by
KillerCarrot : 6.69KB : high ** Focuses a lot around springs, which is obviously not a new concept, but is still a challenge in Race levels. Be sure to get a lot of ice. |
Tilesets |
- Smash Bros by
Jazz : 51.2KB : ** There's some nice eye candy, but most of the floor/wall/ceiling tiles are just different colored blocks. |
-Sorry, Madcat Keep in mind that I do not tolerate people who submit levels under somebody elses name or who call somebody elses level their own. If I learn that somebody is doing this, I will never post level submissions from that person again. -Broken Links - Annihilator's World by

Episode by Ilya Floussov : Episode (4 Levels) :
1.76MB : (high?) *** The coolest thing I've seen since SXR! Highly recommended. I especially love the music. For the first time in a long time I actually enjoyed playing the bosses because there was different music. (you may want to back up Boss2.j2b before you install this) |

- Jazz in Marioland?!
by Ninja Dodo : 24KB : ** There are plenty of gems, but the eye candy needs improvement and it looks like only layers 4 and 8 were utilized. However, this is an "old level". |

- Battle to the End Demo
by Allan : RPG : 2.43MB : Instructions There really isn't much to do or to see yet. If you want an RPG, I would go with Dino Trigger and Fight to the Finish instead. |
-Been a LONG Time... Well, we've got a new feature for the Downloads section. If this doesn't help you to make good levels, I don't know what will. stripe has started something called the "Butt Ugly Level of the Week". Each week, stripe will pick out one level that is really bad and it will be put on the Hall of Shame, as such. My best instincts said not to do this, but I asked around and everybody seemed to find the idea to be interesting and funny. So, you better start making good levels, or else... :-) For future reference, you can find a link to the Butt Ugly Level of the Week at the top of this page. btw, I've still got another 1000 submissions to post, so don't worry about your stuff not being here. =) |

- Final Fantasy Jazz
Demo by Son of Jazz : Pack (2 Levels) : 553KB : high
** It is original, and yet it needs *more*... I'm sure that the final version will be worthy of ***. I have no idea how this pack compares to the real Final Fantasy games. |

by Son of Jazz : Pack (4 Levels) : 418KB : ** Needs more eye candy on all layers. Overall design is ok. |
- 3D Blast by JJ
Tublear : Pack (3 Levels) : 588KB : low ** The levels look great, but it's extremely easy to make levels using the 3D Battle tilesets. Thus the low **. |

- 800x640 Background
by Boggy B : 502KB : Preview It's not Jazz 2 related, but it is nice looking and not annoying, in my opinion. |
- Jazz 2 Info by
Allan : Program : 14.5KB Gives you tons of Jazz 2 tips, most of which from the J2C ToD's. |
- FLC to J2V Converter
: Program : 93KB Converts .flc movies to .j2v, the format used for Jazz 2 cinematics. You are restricted to either calling the file intro.j2v or ending.j2v, so be sure to make a backup of the original cutscenes. |

Update - Holiday Hare Part: Uses HH98, 95 & 94 tilesets I personally wouldn't structure "Jazz 3" so much like Jazz 2 since that's pretty unoriginal, but... |

- Easter Elves by Ninja Dodo
& Jaws : 6.81KB : high ** This got 3rd place in Project 2's level contest. The eye candy is pretty good; the difficulty is easy. |
- Hasj by Snake : 1.68KB : high
* It's just one of those enter- the- correct- warp- to- get- to- the- next- room- and- if- you- enter- the- wrong- warp- you- get- thrown- back- to- the beginning- or- onto- spikes levels. :) |
- Try If You Must V1.0

- Knites &
Rabbits... by DjBlade : 1.96KB : ** Looks pretty nice and the design is ok. On the other hand, there are too many power-ups. |
- Disco by cc Orango
: Hotel/Clan level : 98.8KB : high * It's a little more original than most hotel levels, but it still needs a ton of work. The eye candy can be improved, none of the events respawn, etc. |
- The New Pipe Maze by
Spaznukemujp : 2.73KB : high * It's not actually a maze level, but it's about as good as a typical maze level. |
Tilesets |
- Cannibal Land
by CannibalBob : 39KB : *** Very large and great looking; plenty of eye candy and a great background. Good job! |
-The
Law - ALL levels MUST use ALL 8 LAYERS. I
promise there is not a single tileset that doesn't allow
you to use all of the layers. A final, important FACT: Wakeman dose NOT give levels bad ratings. YOU give levels bad ratings when YOU decide not to spend time on it, when YOU decide not to use all 8 layers, when YOU decide not to have people beta test it, and when YOU aren't creative! I hope I didn't discourage anybody... I'm just giving you a few tips on level creating. :-) -Broken Links - Blue's Small Battle Pack by
BlueIce EE -Rating Change btw, you're dead meat if you send me another one of those hotel levels. :-) -Episode Music - Marialyn Manson I can't say that I like that selection, but... :) |

- Underwater Rabbit
by Dewo : 8.66KB : low *** Difficult and very nice looking. |
- UZIkonijnen by
Mark Marijnissen : 74.4KB : low *** Plenty of stuff to shoot and collect, which keeps things interesting. I think he went overboard on the weapons though. At one point there were so many animations on the screen that I couldn't fire my gun. They eye candy is perfect. |
- Jazz on Mobius
by Knux : Episode (10 Levels) : 614KB : ** I really enjoyed playing this, but the eye candy and design could use a lot more work, especially in the Battle level. |
Battle |
- The CrazyClan Level
by Nutkens : Hotel/Clan levels : 398KB : low ** I guess you don't really need this if you're not in the CrazyClan. btw, these hotel levels are really getting on my nerves. Every single one uses the same tileset and every single one looks exactly the same. Can't *somebody* create an *original* hotel level?!?! |
Miscellaneous |
- Fight to the Finish
by Elias FF : RPG : 3.82MB (23MB when extracted) : Instructions Created using RPG Maker 95, just like Dino Trigger. It is very fun. My only complaint it that I think there are too many enemies. The battles become sorta long and mundane after awhile. That set aside, this is great! |
-Rabbit Wars - 15 levels with a detailed plot. I've been talking to Roaster about Rabbit Wars, and trust me: It's going to be *awesome*. The Rabbit Wars webpage is going to be up soon. Roaster needs 5 beta testers. To apply for the job, the person needs to send me a list of every bug they found in JJ2, including event bugs. The top 5 people with the most complete list will get to test. -Broken Links - Beach Brawl by Jeh (CTF) -RoE & SoY The full version of The Return of Evil should be released soon. EvilMike has admitted that it probably won't get ***. I'm surprised; most people wouldn't want to admit something like that. :) Next EvilMike will be creating a level pack called SoY: Spam of Yak. It is designed to make you laugh and give you a good challange but will not make you scream and want to grab an a-bomb and blast your computer like SXR did. (I didn't come up with that; Evil did :) Want to help? One or two music guys are needed to make music. If you are into art, you can make a new tileset for use in a QoB-like menu. Or, you can do something else if you can think of something... EvilMike just needs proof that you're good. |

- Golf World by
The ? : Pack (3 Levels) : 43.8KB : ** I find the main level to be hard to navigate, but it does look sorta cool. This was based off of a battle level so it doesn't fit the Single Player category so well in some areas. |

- Razz Pack 1 by Razz : 5
Levels : 13.6KB : ** I couldn't play two of the levels because I didn't have the tilesets in my TSF folder. (Remember to always send me custom tilesets and music with your levels!!!) The levels I could play didn't have the greatest design. |
- ShanD Pack 2
by ShanD : 80.3KB : 4 Levels : high ** Two of the levels have too many small platforms and not enough big ones. I always encourage having variations in platform size in Battle levels. Other than that, this is very nice. |
- Billy's WarParty
by Billy Boom : 3.75KB : high ** What he has is nice, but it's sorta small and there is some redundancy in the design. |
- The Dragon is on Fire
by Rat Killer : 2.47KB : ** The design could be better. As with most Battle levels, it's fiine but there's nothing that sets it apart from all other Battle levels. |
- Battle
Out! by Mr. Magoo FK : Version 2 : 2.67KB : ** It could still use some work in the eye candy and event departments. Also, is there any purpose in having gems and 1-ups in multiplayer, besides the fact that they could be nice decorations? :) |

- Playstation by Ice
Wolf EE : 37.9KB : low *** It looks great, but I think that it would be hard to make a good level using this. There aren't enough floor, wall and ceiling tiles. |

- The Great Puzzle
by Biohazard UOI : 11.2KB : low *** This level is different from other puzzle levels I've played. It didn't get me frustrated when I played it. However, lack of frustration also means lack of difficulty, although I still found it to be challenging. |

Battle |
- MaTRiX-BaTtLe by XC &

- South African Tag

- Battle Out! by Mr.
